Mr. Hayes stopped moving the hand that was applying medicine for Quinn.

"Something strange? What kind of strange thing?

"

"Nothing! I am just spouting nonsense,

" Lauren quickly said.

Mr. Hayes mumbled to himself before continuing to treat Quinn's wound.

Suddenly, Lauren's phone watch rang. She recognized the number. It was the phone number of Ruby's guardian.

She pointed at the phone number and shouted excitedly,

"Ruby is calling me!

"

Everyone in the Torres family already knew that Lauren had a good friend who was coming to stay for the time being. They knew what Ruby had experienced in her own home, so they didn't have any objections.

Lauren picked up the call.

"Hello, Ruby?

"

Everyone could hear the conversation since the phone watch was set to speaker mode.

"Lauren, it's me.

"

"Where are you now?

"

"I'm still at the police station. The social worker is helping me with the paperwork. I'm waiting for her.

"

Initially, Lauren wanted to ask about her situation, but she decided to wait until she met Ruby in person.

"By the way, Lauren, I've already sent in my application to live with you to the police. Can I come over today?

"

Why was she in such a hurry? Lauren was a little surprised.

"Um...of course. That's great.

"

"But the police still need you guys to go through the formalities,

" Ruby said.

Franklin heard the conversation. He pointed at his phone and Lauren understood.

"My brother will call the police. There's no need to go over.

"

"I see. Alright, then the police will send us over in a while.

"

"Alright, Ruby. See you later.

"

Mr. Hayes put away the medical kit and stood up from the sofa.

"In that case, I have to quickly prepare an extra set of toiletries in Miss Torres' room. I didn't expect her friend to arrive so quickly.

"

Lauren also felt that it was a little strange that Ruby would be so eager. She had never been a person who liked to trouble others. Lauren originally thought that Ruby would only come over after she called to rush her. Hence, she did not expect that Ruby would actually come over on her own accord.

Lauren also quickly jumped down from the chair, no longer caring about the pizza or Sichuan food anymore. She went straight to her room to clean up.

Her new friend was coming, so of course, she had to give her a good impression!

Half an hour later, Lauren saw Ruby at the door. She had specially waited for her at the door.

Franklin accompanied Lauren over. He negotiated with the police officers for a few minutes, then helped Ruby take her luggage inside the house.

Ruby was very obedient and greeted everyone in the living room.

"Ruby, let me show you my room. It's very nice.

"

Just now, the servant had helped to change a new set of bedsheets for her.

However, Ruby did not look very keen. While Lauren was happily introducing her dolls to Ruby, she did not have many expressions on her face. She smiled and from time to time gave one- or two-word responses.

Ruby brought two big bags with her this time. One bag was some daily clothes, and the other bag was some of her personal belongings.

"Lauren, I want to take a shower first.

"

"Yeah, go ahead.

"

Lauren helped Ruby familiarize herself with the bathroom.

System Divine Nine: Host, don't you find the aura here a little strange?

Lauren sat on the bed and suddenly heard System Divine Nine speak.

System Divine Nine's instinct was rarely wrong, Lauren closed her eyes to sense it.

"It is indeed a little strange.

"

As the Torres Mansion was located in a geomantic treasure land with concentrated positive energy, the aura here was very pure.

However, when Lauren sensed it earlier, she discovered that this pure aura was mixed with a strange aura that was difficult to detect.

However, this aura was very weak. It came and went as if someone was deliberately suppressing it.

However, no matter how weak it was, it could still be detected. Like a black dot in a white field, it would always attract attention.

"Could it be that a little ghost accidentally barged in?

"

System Divine Nine: We can't rule out this possibility, but judging from this aura alone, this ghost either has extremely weak or extremely strong energy.

Lauren nodded in agreement.

They could sense that this aura was very weak, so either this ghost was very weak, or it was so strong that it could conceal its own aura.

For Lauren, there were still many unknown things. The ghosts that she had encountered so far were just a drop in the ocean.

So she didn't dare to be careless at any time.
