Chapter 625 Working Together



The security guard vigilantly searched for a long time, but there was only grass, so he put down his gun and turned around to patrol other places.

"What is going on…" I checked my entire body, but I couldn\'t find anything. I looked around, and even Yarin was gone!

I was extremely anxious, afraid that this kid would sneak away or be caught by the security guards. Just as I was about to return to where I came from, when no one was paying attention, I heard someone calling me softly above my head, "Lily, Lily! I\'m here. Look up!"

When I looked up, Yarin was already in a window.

He pulled me up as well. We looked at each other and heaved a sigh of relief.

"What happened just now?" I knew the plasticine-like thing must have something to do with Yarin. "What was it that dragged me away? Also, why how you suddenly become bigger?"

"Well, that\'s a sharp question." Yarin scratched his head and smiled bitterly. "This is the secret I want to keep from you, Lily, although it didn\'t last long."

"Are you saying that the sticky liquid is your power?"

"That is not entirely correct. Sigh, since I have already been exposed, there is no point in hiding it…

Actually, it wasn\'t just my power. It was me. I can melt my body and split it into many parts to move around. The small version of me you see is a part of me. The rest of me melted into jelly to support the turf."

I widened my eyes in disbelief. There seemed still to be a touch of melted plasticine on my arm.

Yarin avoided looking at me. "Disgusting, right? I also want to make myself look less…Uh, it\'s beyond the scope of human beauty. However, this power is innate, and I can\'t change it."

I muttered, "No, it\'s not so much disgusting as cool!"

I didn\'t know how I looked right now. Maybe the way my eyes lit up was a little scary, but honestly - who didn\'t think it was cool?

Who hadn\'t fantasized about having a unique ability bestowed by the goddess when they were young? I wasn\'t the lucky one, but Yarin was!

I didn\'t know how to describe my current feelings. Excitement, novelty, and jealousy for my childhood fantasy that had died.

No wonder Yarin repeatedly emphasized that it was reasonable for him to act alone. It turned out that this wasn\'t a brat trying to act strong. He could protect himself.

My reaction seemed to make Yarin breathe a sigh of relief. He no longer held his shoulders to hide his nervousness and relaxed a lot.

"Thank you, Lily. You\'ve made me feel much better."

"I should be the one thanking you, shouldn\'t I? If it weren\'t for you, I would have been discovered!" I still felt a lingering fear when I recalled that scene. "I might as well have successfully entered without alerting anyone."

"That\'s right. There\'s no time to lose. Let\'s hurry to the study, take the things, and run."

"Wait, don\'t act rashly." I pulled him back and listened carefully to the movements around him. "There are security guards in the house too. Although there aren\'t as many as outside, they are basically guarding places like the stairs. We must think of a way to go around it, or we\'ll be discovered."

"That\'s easy," Yarin said. "I can move through the central air conditioning pipe. As long as there\'s a gap, I can get in."

Obviously, I couldn\'t participate this time. I could only watch him melt into a pool of pale pink sticky liquid and crawl into the vent along the wall.

I waited for a little anxiously. Five minutes later, he came back through the vent.

"I failed," he said gloomily. "There\'s someone in the study, she\'s sitting at her desk, and I can\'t get in."

"Who is it?"

"Aunt Teresa, she seemed to be dealing with some documents. I was trying to rush out of the vent and was almost discovered by her. I had to come back first."

"Are you going to go again later?"

"Yes, I don\'t think she can stay up all night, right? If you think about it carefully, it\'s not impossible…"

"Don\'t worry. I\'ll solve this." I realized that it was my turn to act now. "I\'ll swagger out later. The security guard will invite my mother over when he sees me. It would be best to take this opportunity to sneak into the study to find the necessary information. When you\'re done, come to the room on the far right of the top floor and find me, okay?"

Yarin nodded and suddenly asked hesitantly, "Will Aunt Teresa... Ground you further?"

"So Alfred told you? Don\'t worry. I\'m used to this kind of situation. If she had grounded me, she wouldn\'t have let me wander outside."

Yarin seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he only said, "Be careful, Lily. If Aunt Teresa is angry because of this, don\'t worry about me. Protect yourself first, okay? You know I have ways to escape."

"Don\'t worry, little brat. I don\'t fancy sacrificing myself." I ruffled his hair and said, "I\'ll go now. Can you be quick?"

Staring at Yarin\'s worried gaze, I entered the empty corridor and bumped into a patrolling security guard.
