“Going to kindergarten tomorrow? So soon! I am not ready for anything yet.”

“You don’t need to prepare anything, just go to kindergarten and don’t scare the kids.”

“How could I scare those children? I am so cute.”

When Quinn came back from upstairs with the pendant, he heard what Lauren said and couldn’t help but complain, “In what way are you cute? You look so excited when you see a ghost.”

When he thought about the haunted house this afternoon, Quinn had goosebumps.

That was true. Catching ghosts was Lauren’s mission. With every ghost she caught, she would bring more peace in this world.

After obtaining the pendant, Lauren returned to her room to continue her research.

Looking at Lauren’s back as she left, Franklin asked Quinn, “Did you feel that Lauren was a little strange just now?”

Quinn was a thick-skinned and insensitive man.

“What’s so strange about it? It’s only strange if she isn’t strange.”

Franklin thought for a moment and actually felt that what Quinn said made sense.

If Lauren was not strange one day, she would not be Lauren anymore.

As Franklin thought about it, he decided to let Lauren be.

Lauren returned to her room and immediately picked up the replica pendant she had created. She flipped to the back of the pendant and carefully observed it, but she did not find any rose pattern on the back of the pendant.

This meant that those pendants from Pauline, including the one that she had picked up earlier today, were made in the same place, which explained the same rose pattern on the back.

Lauren suddenly thought of a detail. When she was about to wear the 3D glasses outside the haunted house, the pair of glasses that was given to Lauren had been passed to Bryce due to incorrect sizes.

If she and Bryce hadn’t changed their 3D glasses, then the one who encountered those incidents would have been Lauren.

Were these coincidences? Did that person just want to continue to absorb the souls of living people, or was that person targeting at Lauren?

“What do you think, System Divine Nine?”

“Even though Pauline and Irene are dead and those children have been rescued, I feel that this matter is not over yet.”

Due to the completion of mission 3, System Divine Nine had recently been upgraded.

System Divine Nine was at its weakest when the system was being upgraded. Therefore, during this period of time, System Divine Nine had been staying in Lauren’s spiritual consciousness to upgrade quietly.

Lauren did not wait for a reply from System Divine Nine. She dived into her spiritual consciousness and discovered that Divine Nine, which had transformed into a little fox, was lying listlessly on the sofa with its eyes closed.

“System Divine Nine, what’s wrong?”

Lauren gently stroked the smooth fur on the little fox’s back.

The fox slowly opened its eyes.

System Divine Nine: Host, I am leveling up now. After two days, I’ll be powerful again.

“You’ve leveled up before, but you are not in this manner.”

System Divine Nine: This mission is long and difficult, so I can level up two levels in a go. It’ll take a little longer.

“Really? That’s great. System Divine Nine, I won’t bother you anymore, you can level up in peace.”

After saying that, she exited from her spiritual consciousness.

Lauren glanced at the pendants on the table. Since there were no more clues to trace, she could only put this case aside for the time being, regardless of whether it had ended or not.

Right now, she had to prepare for another thing—going to kindergarten.

Although Lauren was four-and-a-half years old, she rarely interacted with kids of the same age. So, she was a little nervous at the thought of meeting so many children the next day.

She jumped off the bed and ran to Franklin’s room.

Quinn was no longer there.

When Franklin heard the noise, he looked up from his pile of documents and saw Lauren standing at the door.

“What’s wrong? Why are you here again?”

“Franklin, I want to borrow your computer to check something.”

“Go ahead.”

Franklin then gave his seat to Lauren.

There was only a desktop computer in his study room and no laptop, so Lauren could only sit in his seat.

Meanwhile, Franklin walked to the sofa with the documents in his hands, leaving plenty of space for Lauren.

This was why Lauren favored Franklin the most, as Franklin always gave her enough freedom to do a lot of things.

After Franklin carried her to the seat, Lauren opened her browser and began to search for some things.

She learnt how to code recently. Her typing speed was getting faster and she had become very proficient at using a keyboard.

Franklin listened to the crackling sound of Lauren’s typing: “Your typing speed can even match my secretary’s.”

“Really? Then I will be your secretary from now on.”
