Chapter 129 Two Big Brains.
Oliver and Jonathan trembled in fear at the horrifying laughter. The female ghost was right in front of them. Their survival instincts kicked in and they let go of Milly and stepped back when they opened their
eyes.
They continued retreating into a corner and huddled together in fear, trying to get calm by holding each
other.
The female ghost wanted to approach them again, but Milly blocked her, saying. “Alright, stop scaring them, scare me instead.”
Oliver and Jonathan were obviously terrified out of their minds. They might faint if the female ghost moved closer to them.
The female ghost glanced at the trembling duo longingly, feeling a bit regretful.
Isn’t Oliver supposed to hate Jonathan? Why do they seem to be getting along so well now? They’re like best friends!
Is Jon–Liver real?
Wait! Why am I so excited about this? I would have taken a picture of them and posted it online if I had my phone with
me now!
Meanwhile, the fans in the livestream weren’t as accepting as the female ghost. They started arguing in the comment section.
“Let go of my man right now!”
How could Jonathan touch Oliver?’
Just say so if you want to ride on Oliver’s popularity. Why do you have to scheme something like this?”
I’m speechless. I’ve seen unpopular ones trying to attract attention, but never the other way around.
‘Stop shipping them together! It’s obvious that they’re just seeking comfort from each other due to the fear.
‘Exactly. Why didn’t you ship the four of them when they were hugging just now?
Some of the fans started to ship Jonathan and Oliver.
‘Well, Jonathan’s looks do match Oliver’s perfectly.
“I think it’s better for Jonathan to date Oliver instead of some b*tch.”
“Why is it called the Jon–Liver couple? Not the other way round?‘
Others started to comment as well.
“Milly is so smart, she’s talking about philosophy.”
“Learning philosophy while watching the live stream, my exam this time won’t be bad for sure!”

Jonathan!”
I’m starting to ship her with Oliver. The way she comforted Oliver just now was so cutel
‘I think she matches well with Jonathan too. At a glance, they even resembled each other!”
‘Come one, stop the shipping! Let Milly shine!
In the director’s booth, the cameraman rolled his eyes at the comments. He couldn’t understand why the netizens love playing matchmaker so much.
Milly wasn’t disturbed at all. After comforting Michelle, she picked up the doll and pondered the two lines of poetry.
Then she picked up the wooden box that had been discarded on the ground and gently turned the dials on it.
Stephanie saw her actions and bit her lip. She wanted to look for clues too, but her legs were weak due to the female ghost.
Why is Milly acting like nothing happened? If this continues, Milly will definitely solve the first puzzle.
Thinking of this, she suddenly said, “Milly, don’t touch the box, it might be another trap like just now.”
Milly confidently replied, “There won’t be.”
As she finished speaking, there was a “click,” and the wooden box opened again. This time, instead of a key, there was a piece of paper inside.
It had four words written on it, ‘East, West, South, North.”
She walked to the bed where she had initially found the dagger, looked around, and gently traced the intricate patterns on the headboard. The patterns were very complex, and they were even harder to see under the light.
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw faint light reflecting on the ground, creating a distorted, crooked image. There were some blurry texts when she looked closely.
Milly used the dagger to slowly align the patterns, and the words became clear, “East, West, South, North.”
Following this clue, she found another hidden compartment. There was a coffin inside. After placing the doll inside, the coffin closed with a “beep“.
Then, with a “bang,” the door opened.
A spooky female voice crackled through the speaker above them, “Thank you for finding my child…
“Ahh!”
As soon as the door opened, everyone except Milly and Stephanie ran out with their heads covered. Stephanie also wanted to escape in lear, but seeing Milly’s calm demeanour, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to walk out alongside her.
in seemed like Oliver and Jonathan became incredibly strong. They ignored all the clues and

simply kicked down every door they saw.
It might be a bit unethical, but it was definitely faster.
Others played escape rooms for the thrill but they played it for the kicks.
In less than three minutes, they reached the final level.
However, everything in the room was made from stone and they couldn’t kick the door open.
So, both of them who had been tearing through obstacles just moments ago, were now huddled together in a corner, muttering something that sounded like lyrics,
Milly was amused at them. She asked, “Shouldn’t you guys be reciting prayers if you’re afraid of ghosts? What’s the use of chanting the lyrics to Amazing Grace?”
Jonathan, who was leaning on Oliver, explained in a muffled voice, “We sing Amazing Grace in church. It held the same powers as prayers!”
For once, Oliver fully agreed with him. “I think you’re absolutely right. Recite the lyrics for me too.”
Jonathan rolled his eyes. “Recite it yourself, sincerity is what counts, got it?”
“But I only know something like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star‘. Do you think stars can ward off ghosts?”
“Give it a try, a desperate measure for a desperate situation,” Jonathan said.
Oliver believed it and started reciting. “Twinkle twinkle little star.
Milly was at a loss for words in front of those two big brains.
