Lilly could not make sense of Pablo's explanation.
Why would Uncle Bryson become another person once the soul puppet is attached to him without anyone noticing?
Lilly was confident she would notice it if Uncle Bryson became another person.
It wouldn't happen without anyone noticing. Lilly was confident that she would realize it.
Seeing her perplexed, Pablo explained, "Let me put it this way. Some people, who were perfectly fine before, suddenly undergo a drastic change in behavior as if they have become completely different people. We often say a spirit has possessed them."
Lilly nodded amusingly again.
She understood what it meant.
Pablo continued, "Those afflicted with a soul puppet will have their soul swapped. It isn't a ghost but a living person possessing them."
Lilly exclaimed in surprise.
Lilly always thought only a ghost could possess a human. She had never imagined a living person to possess a person. It was a discovery for her!
Lilly said, "Master is amazing. You know a lot of things!"
Pablo chuckled as he gently pinched Lilly's cheek, "Stop buttering me up."
Lilly replied incoherently with her cheeks pinched, "Master isn't a butter… Master is amazing, so you're better!"
Pablo was at a loss for words because of Lilly's amusing remarks.
Pablo interjected, "Back to the point. Master has visited the underworld. No one has reported a suspect."
"The ghosts are monitored with proper regulation. The suspect hasn't gone to the Palace of the Ruler of Hell."
Lilly asked attentively, "Is the suspect a living human?"
Pablo nodded, "The suspect must be a human, but this is strange. How can he survive to the palace?"
Pablo had no clues earlier. However, the two cases coincided after Lilly brought up the matter of the soul puppet.
"The culprit interrupts those approaching death but survives in the end. If the victim writes the culprit's name, the culprit can substitute the victim's soul and return to the victim's body. Then, the culprit can continue living in the victim's body."
Lilly opened her eyes widely, "The soul puppet is sinister!"
