Chapter 691 The Deceased Old Man

The typhoon in Wyndon hadn’t completely passed yet, and it was still raining when Lilly got out of the car. Despite

being the months of July and August, it unexpectedly felt a bit chilly. Lilly wore a thin jacket, and even Josh and the

others added a shirt jacket to their attire.

Blake held an umbrella, but Lilly dashed ahead, her little face filled with urgency.

“Lilly, what’s wrong?” Blake asked.

Lilly stood on the street, watching the wind howling and the sparse number of pedestrians braving the

rain.

“Daddy, did you see that old lady just now?” Lilly asked..

Blake shook his head in confusion. “No, I didn’t.”

Josh and Hannah were even more bewildered. They didn’t notice any old person when they arrived, and now Lilly

was talking about an old lady again…

When they arrived, it was on the opposite side of the road, so they could pass it off as not seeing her. But they

didn’t see her on this side either as they walked all the way here.

Josh said. “Lilly, are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

Lilly murmured. “I didn’t see wrong…”

When they arrived, she saw the old lady in person.

But just now, she saw her spirit…

A chill ran through Lilly’s heart, and the rain blown by the strong wind landed on her face, making her

feel cold.

Pablo asked, “What’s wrong?”

Lilly bit her lip and said, “There was an old lady… She wasn’t dead when we arrived, but just now I saw her spirit.”

Pablo furrowed his brow and asked, “Is there anything special about this old lady?”

Countless beings come and go in the mortal realm. Every day, babies are born, and people pass away. In the grand

scheme of countless lives, there isn’t a single person who is truly special. If she had to pay attention to every

person she saw once, as a resident of Little Hades, she wouldn’t be able to keep up….

But Lilly said, “I saw this old lady when I was doodling with the Pen of Judgment.”

Lilly pondered for a moment and continued, “It’s like watching an animated series, even before it’s aired, I – knew

this old lady would appear.”

Pablo was taken aback.

What does she mean??

The Pen of Judgment does allow you to see how someone’s life will turn out, but…

Seeing the future is different!

Lilly had never seen that old lady, but she saw her under the influence of the Pen of Judgment. That was a true

glimpse into the future.

Pablo felt overwhelmed and immediately took Lilly’s hand. “Come on, let’s go find her.”

He wanted to understand what was going on!

Blake also understood and his expression turned solemn.

They walked up and down the street, searching for the old lady, but couldn’t find her no matter how long they

looked.

Josh and Hannah wore baffled expressions and kept asking, “What are we looking for? What’s going on?”

Lilly said seriously, “Josh, you wouldn’t want to know.”

Josh fell silent.

Okay, let’s take out the camera.

Max, who had parked the car, followed along. He held the umbrella, with Drake and Zachary beneath it.

As soon as they arrived, they saw Josh taking out his camera, prompting Max to say, “Are you taking pictures?

What’s there to capture in this stormy weather…”

Josh’s gaze shifted, and he said, “Uncle Max, my camera is a bit different. You’ll see in a moment.”

Max shook his head, wondering what could be so different. He had seen cameras with advanced technology before.

Blake pointed to a small restaurant and said. “Let’s go in and ask.”

Lilly pushed open the door and called out, “Boss…”

The boss stood up, thinking there was a customer. “Hello, would you like to have a meal? How many of you?”

Lilly apologized, “Sorry, we’re not here to eat.”

Josh continued. “We just wanted to ask if you saw an old lady passing by just now?”

The boss raised an eyebrow and shook his head. “I didn’t see anyone… Are you looking for someone? Is it your

family?”

Lilly shook her head and said, “We saw her without an umbrella, and she looked pitiful…”

The boss’s expression softened slightly. “I didn’t see her, but if I had, I would have given her an umbrella.”

They thanked him and left the restaurant.

Lilly wasn’t satisfied and walked towards the neighboring noodle shop. The shop had an open entrance, so they

should be able to see from there.

“Hello, ma’am… Did you see an old person just now?” Lilly asked earnestly, “An old lady wearing a thin

layer of plastic wrap.”

The noodle shop’s owner was taken aback and shook her head. “I didn’t see anyone just now… But I saw her

walking past from that direction in the morning.”

Lilly asked anxiously, “Where did she go?”

The owner said, “That way, but I don’t know where she went.”

Lilly looked in the direction the owner pointed, coincidentally the opposite direction from where she saw the old

lady’s spirit walking.

She understood that after the old lady walked in that direction in the morning, she died somewhere over there.

She just didn’t know why her spirit was still wandering and returned here.

Lilly said thank you and left, searching in the direction indicated by the noodle shop owner.

Blake said. “We found her.”

Everyone looked at Blake all at once.

Max thought to himself. Did you only ask a few people? And you found her just like that?

Blake held his phone and pointed at the surveillance footage. “I checked the surveillance cameras on this street,

and we followed her path.”

Max murmured.

Entering someone else’s surveillance footage was as natural to him as entering his own home, and for a moment,

he didn’t know what to say.

Lilly stared at the footage, following the path the old lady had walked in the morning and turned into an alley.

It was a shortcut, and after entering the alley, they walked a bit further, passing by a few scattered vegetable plots.

Behind the vegetable plots were irregularly arranged self-built houses.

These houses didn’t belong to the urban village; they were among the few remaining residences of the original

residents. The price of one apartment building could rival that of a small villa.

Although the architecture couldn’t compare to the grandeur of a villa, it had a unique charm that reflected the

city’s history.

Blake switched to another surveillance footage and said, “This way.”

Lilly walked and walked until she arrived in front of one of the self-built houses.

From a distance, she saw a familiar figure curled up on the ground….

The old lady was wrapped in a white plastic film, but her body was already soaked, curled up into a ball.

Josh stood there dumbfounded. “Is that… a corpse?”

Hannah, who was carefree, wondered, “What corpse? What kind of corpse can there be here?”

She only saw a small pile of things covered with a white plastic film; for a moment, she didn’t think of it as

a corpse.

Lilly ran over.

Blake quickly approached and examined the scene, then spoke, “She passed away approximately two hours ago.”

Josh asked, “Uncle Blake, how do you know it’s been two hours?”

Blake, while examining, explained, “When a person dies, their body starts to stiffen between 30 minutes to three

hours. Rigor mortis occurs around nine to twelve hours after death. Although the time of body stiffening varies

depending on the cause of death, we can make a rough estimate.”

Josh nodded in understanding.

Lilly squatted beside the old lady, silent for a long time.

There was a tree in front of the self-built house, and under the tree was a stone bench. The old lady was curled up

beneath that bench..

In her final moments, she must have been waiting for something, her face slightly lifted, facing towards the

building.

The wrinkles on her face were tightly pressed together, faintly revealing a sense of longing…
