Zachary sent the female spirit flying, and she broke into pieces. If Lilly kicked her, she might be totally gone. But she did not know about it. She was not smart, so she changed her target to Lilly. Lilly was standing there, and suddenly the spirit fragments dashed toward her! "Madame, are you dumb?" She waved her hand and set up an invisible shield in front of her, and it blocked the spirit out. But the spirit did not see it; she only felt that she banged onto a glass and got stuck in midair.
The next moment, a light shone. And Zachary hurriedly pinned her to the ground. He stepped on her shattered limbs to pin her down. Any normal human being would be terrified by this scene. He snorted, "Do you think that you can suddenly attack Lilly?" He asked, "Do you give up?" He was a different person after awakening.
The spirit yelled, "I won’t give up!" And he simply slapped her head, which was slanted. Lilly was stunned. The spirit could not move an inch, but she said, "You’re just a little bastard..."
Lilly took a talisman out and said, "Madame, it’s better if you give up." Then she handed the talisman to Zachary and said, Zachary, you can use this to contain the ghost for now. But it isn’t that useful; it can only keep one or two spirits." He has awakened, so I should find him a special bag.
He took the talisman. Although he had never used it in this life, he immediately put it on the spirit’s head, and he bit his finger. A red light flashed! The female spirit yelled, and she disappeared; she was kept in it. Lilly was shocked. What the? He has to bite his finger every time he captures a ghost. This is so painful! She hurriedly grabbed his finger and pressed it to stop the bleeding. Zachary, you’re bleeding!"
He said, "It’s not a big deal."
She replied, "No, you have to eat two more chicken thighs when we’re home!"

Valentine was waiting under the umbrella, and he really did not move at all. His neck was numb, and he wanted to go to the bathroom. But Lilly asked him not to move or turn his head. Hence, he sat there with sweat dripping down his face.
"Eh? Mr. Val, what are you doing?" Lilly asked. He was relieved, and he turned around. His neck was so close to cramping. "Little Miss, you’re back!" He glanced behind her and saw nothing. He asked, "Little Miss, are you done?" She nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Val. Let’s go!" He wanted to leave a long time ago, so he hurriedly stood up. A few people came to them and moved the umbrella and picnic set near the shooting crew. He felt that it was safer if there were more people. But he heard Lilly say, "Zachary, we have a new one!"
Zachary nodded, and Lilly said, "You’re lucky! You can stabilize your power by running into the second one!" Then they held their "swords" and dashed out. Valentine thought to himself, What is this? We’re not safe even if there are many people?
Josh had his own troubles when Lilly and Zachary were fighting spirits out there. His extra class ended at eleven o’clock in the morning, and he only realized that Lilly and Zachary went out without him. They would be staying with Jonas outside for the night. It meant that he would have a boring weekend! He sighed. He suddenly disliked the weekend.
"Josh, I’m going to the market; do you want to tag along?" He did not feel like it, so he said, "Granny, you can just go with Grandpa." Bettany replied, "He’ll be holding the camera; I need someone to throw the flower petals." So am I just a tool? Zachary is usually the one doing this when he’s home. Granny just wants to use me. "Granny, aren’t you going to the market? You’re not there to photoshoot either." He said, But he already wore his shoes and followed them out. Hugh put his hands behind his back and answered, "You don’t know about it."
Josh knew what was happening soon. They drove into a street full of flowers. Bettany exclaimed, "Wow! It’s so pretty! I want to record myself dancing here. And then we can edit it into a video." Hugh said, "Okay. Jack, pull over." Jack stopped as he instructed. Hugh said, "Why are you still daydreaming? Come and throw the flower petals!"
But… Uncle Jack could have done it, couldn't he? Bettany seemed to see Josh’s thought, and she said, "People would think that you've been playing with the petals since you were a kid."
She would be embarrassed if an adult threw the petals for her because passersby would be curious and look at her.
