Elmer smiled. “If you don’t hold it, how do you know you can’t?”
Eric saw Amelia touch a big hammer and introduced, “This hammer is amazing! It’s a heavy industry wall-breaking hammer. Look, its handle is soft and can bend. This design is tremor-proof… ‘ I
Amelia was eager to give it a try. Elmer cheered from the side. “That’s right, my disciple has to be like this. She dares to think, dares to do!
Amelia said to Eric, “Fifth Uncle, can I borrow your hammer?
Dylan and Eric momentarily forgot about Amelia bending the railing of the balcony. Their first reaction was that this hammer was too heavy and Amelia could not lift it. Then, in the next second, they heard Amelia suddenly raise the hammer with a shout and smash it on the bronze statue!
Eric and Dylan were speechless. The two of them were dumbfounded. With a bang, a huge hole was smashed through the bronze statue. Something fell out with a crash, raising a cloud of dust.
The dust cleared, revealing the object that had fallen out of the bronze statue. It was a human hand, the palm of which was only bones left. The palm was held upward, holding something wrapped in brown paper.
Eric reacted quickly and immediately covered Amelia’s eyes. Dylan opened his mouth and felt a chill under the sun.
Eric said, “Second Brother, bring Mia back first.”
Amelia: “…No, I’m not going back.” Before she could finish speaking, Dylan carried Amelia and quickly walked back. “Mia, be good. This is not a place for children. Go back and play with Grandma. Second Uncle and Fifth Uncle have something to deal with. Also, remember, the person who smashed the bronze statue just now was your Fifth Uncle. He was too excited when he introduced the hammer to you and accidentally smashed the bronze statue, understand?”
Amelia was puzzled. “Is that so? Isn’t this a lie?”
Dylan was speechless. He said in a muffled voice, “Anyway, Mia, listen to
Second Uncle. Mia is the most obedient, right?”
Amelia leaned on Dylan’s shoulder and replied, “Okay, Mia will be obedient.”
After Dylan sent Amelia home, he left in a hurry. Old Madam Walton hurriedly got someone to bring Amelia something to eat. Amelia sat on the sofa and asked Elmer softly as she ate, “Master, why did Second Uncle let Mia lie? That bronze statue was clearly smashed by Mia.”
Elmer sat cross-legged on the ground and flipped through something in his hand. “This is called a harmless white lie. Think about it. You’re so young, but you’re so strong. What if others are curious and want to take you away for research?”
Amelia’s small face immediately became nervous. “No, Mia doesn’t want to be taken away!
Old Madam Walton happened to bring an apple over for Amelia. When she heard this, she quickly said, “No one can take Mia away.”
When Amelia heard this, she immediately pounced into Old Madam Walton’s arms. “That’s right. Mia wants to be with Grandma forever.”
Elmer rolled his eyes and raised his hand to pull the ugly female ghost out of the Soul-Retrieving Gourd. “Why is your hand in the bronze statue?” As he spoke, he looked at the female ghost’s hand. As a ghost, she had hands. Only when the tragic state of her death was shown could they see where the ghost was incomplete. That was why Elmer did not notice that the ugly female ghost was incomplete. The ancient people said that the greatest punishment was to die without a complete corpse. It could be seen that it was very important to have a complete body after death. Only then could one reincarnate well. The ugly female ghost said bitterly, “Because when I was smashed to death that day, my hand severed. My hand was still holding the money.” Even until her death, the ugly female ghost did not let go of the money. It was precisely because she did not have this hand that she was unwilling to reincarnate. She had been floating nearby for more than five years and wanted to take her hand back.
Elmer continued to flip through the book. “Didn’t you know that the bag the person gave you didn’t contain anything good?”
The ugly female ghost was silent.
Elmer sneered. “You know it’s a bad thing, but you went against your conscience for money. As the saying goes, good and evil will be returned in the end.” He did not know why the female ghost’s severed hand appeared in the bronze statue, but now that the hand had been discovered, it would be handed over to the police for investigation. As long as Sarah’s fingerprints were extracted from the packet of paper, Sarah would be finished.
At the side, Amelia was focused on eating the apple. She ate half of it and handed the other half to Seven. Seven nibbled on it. The girl and bird shared the apple and laughed, carefree.
Elmer, who was at the side, could not help but laugh. When he first saw Amelia, she was still very careful and numb like a little robot. Now that she had left those days, she opened her heart and revealed her childish side..
