I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today-Chapter 824 - Lice
Chapter 824 -824 Lice
Lice?
Bai Youwei instantly felt itchy all over, wishing she could immediately shed a layer of skin!
Subconsciously, she wanted to take a bath in the dollhouse, but the effects of these lice were unknown. What if they were transmitted to Teacher Shen and Xiaoxin?
Or fell onto the bath towels, the sofa, the bed, the pillows… Wouldn’t that scatter lice all over the place?!

At that thought, Bai Youwei felt completely unwell.
Shen Mo said, “These bugs are not quite like real ‘lice.’ Everyone turn on your flashlights, try to maintain illumination, and check carefully—the cuffs, creases, beards, hair…”
...
The Stone Chamber was too dark, and the bugs were particularly small, so everyone could only use their flashlights to check each other.
Nevertheless, it was hard to say there were no overlooked spots.
Bai Youwei asked Shen Mo to set up the tent, and she bent down and crawled inside, only to emerge with a bundle of firewood in no time.
Since she could even pull out a chicken, everyone was not surprised to see her fetch a handful of firewood.
After starting a fire, Bai Youwei changed her clothes inside the tent, and threw the clothes she had been wearing into the fire to burn them cleanly.
At her insistence, Shen Mo, Du Lai, Chen Hui, and Asarina all changed into clean clothes, except for Leonid, who did not change because he was too large, and Bai Youwei couldn’t find clothes and trousers of his size.
As the fabric burned in the flames, it emitted a stench of carbonized fibers.
Bai Youwei looked around again and asked Leonid, “Can you shave off your hair and beard? They might conceal lice.”
“Beard? No way!” Leonid immediately shook his head, “What kind of man would I be without a beard?!”
“Then wash it,” Bai Youwei went back into the tent, and this time she came out with a bucket, a basin filled with shampoo and conditioner, and a bottle of alcohol.
Seeing the alcohol, Leonid laughed, “Nice treatment, washing my hair and drinking.”
“It’s for washing hair, I don’t know if it’ll work, but let’s try it,” Bai Youwei said to Chen Hui, “You wash it for him.”
Chen Hui rolled up her sleeves and nodded.
…
Because of these inexplicable lice, they did not enter any more rooms but remained in the same spot, checking, washing, drying, resting.
The fire kept burning, driving away the chill of the Stone Chamber.
Du Lai, distrusting Mark and Dylan, tied their legs together but left their hands free so they could feed themselves.
Leonid sat bare-chested in front of the fire, allowing Chen Hui to busy herself with scissors on his head.
He emphasized repeatedly, “You can only cut the hair! Don’t touch my beard!”
“Got it!” Chen Hui grabbing a lock of his hair and cutting it, then threw it into the fire to burn it, crackling loudly, “…My god, uncle, lice love you! They’re all in your hair! Definitely in your beard too!”
“They can’t be cut, no matter what!” Leonid said irritably, “Just wash it several times.”
Chen Hui, “I got it, but don’t move around. If I accidentally cut your beard, don’t blame me…”
Leonid immediately sat up straight, motionless.
Bai Youwei sat in front of the tent watching Chen Hui cut Leonid’s hair, and she couldn’t help feeling itchy on her scalp, perhaps psychologically.
“Can you check for me, do I have lice?” Bai Youwei nudged Shen Mo beside her.
Bai Youwei had very long, fluffy, slightly curly, dark brown hair that she cherished. She definitely couldn’t bear to cut it all off, but the thought of possibly hosting lice made her feel unbearably devastated.
Shen Mo parted her hair and soothed her patiently, “They’re just some little flying bugs, we don’t know yet what impact they’ll have on people, no need to scare yourself.”
Bai Youwei sighed, “This maze is such a hassle.”
Shen Mo raised his hand to pat her head, but caught sight of a black “louse” resting on his finger. He frowned, withdrew his hand without a sound, and said lightly, “Yeah, it’s a bit of a problem…”
