Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 399

"Perhaps he swapped his life with someone else?" said Lilly.

"Impossible." Pablo shook his head. "If that's the case, it will be written here."

Right then, Blake returned, but without his usual air of confidence.

"What's the matter, Daddy?" asked Lilly, concerned.

Blake knelt before his daughter. "I failed to catch Chris."

"It's okay, Daddy. I'm sure you can catch him next time." Lilly then patted her father. This small gesture was enough to cheer Blake up.

"So were you saying just now?" asked Blake.

Lilly then recited the conversation she had with Pablo to Blake. As Blake listened to their hypothesis, a name appeared in Blake's mind. Maryn Kamily. He then found himself a sheet of paper and jotted down three names. Baldy, Chris, and Maryn. He then added a circle that contained a question mark next to them.

"This circle represents the mysterious figure," explained Blake. "Chris gave Baldy the ghost bride. That alone tells us that there is some sort of power dynamic between them. Like that of a leader and his subordinate. As for Maryn, Chris must have given her the parasitic love talisman. Based on my observation so far, she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary so I don't think she knows what the talisman does."

"I see." Lilly nodded. Her brain was like a sponge, absorbing everything very quickly.

"Therefore, I conclude that Chris did not swap his life with someone else. Instead, someone paid Chris to swap that someone's life with somebody else. Your master once said that powerful individuals had the ability to visit the Underworld. I believe Chris must have intercepted Zachary's soul when Zachary's surgery was underway."

Pablo couldn't help but nod. Everything made sense when Blake put it that way.
