Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 215

Eileen waited there for a long time, but the ghosts didn’t say anything. Finally, she could only sigh and say regretfully, "Seems like I can't scare you guys. I thought Phyllis would be an easy mark..."

Phyllis was speechless.

Simon looked confused and asked, "What's that supposed to mean?"

Eileen grumbled, "My plan was to trick them into talking so I could interrogate them directly about the plot..."

Jarvis couldn’t help but chuckle , then nodded, "That's a neat idea. But since it didn't work, what's our next move?"

Eileen said, "We'll just have to find the answers ourselves. Onward!"

Eileen hid behind the two guys, pushing them forward like they were shields. The trio inched forward.

When they got to the group of ghosts, Eileen suddenly stretched out a hand to feel Ruby's pocket.

Ruby was confused.

Jarvis and Simon were also curious.

"Ms. Lopez, what are you doing?" Jarvis asked.

Eileen said, "I'm looking for clues."

With that, she rummaged in Ruby's pocket and surprisingly found something: a piece of chocolate!

"Wow!" Eileen didn't expect this windfall. She immediately pocketed the chocolate!

Then she started feeling Ruby's other pocket!

Ruby was speechless.

After feeling all over Ruby, Eileen finally found a dormitory key in the pocket of her clothes lining.

She handed the key to Jarvis and said, "Whichever door this key opens, that's the real room number 444."

Jarvis took the key, looked at Eileen in surprise, and laughed, "Ms. Lopez, you're really clever."

Eileen proudly said, "Of course! When she knocked on our door asking for the child, I figured it out. An actor with so many lines must be playing an important role. She must have clues on her!"

After Eileen finished speaking, she reached out to the pocket of another female ghost next to Ruby.

Simon asked, "Is she an important character too?"

Eileen didn't answer. After a few seconds, she pulled out a compressed biscuit from the ghost's pocket!

"Wow!"

Eileen put the biscuit in her pocket and started feeling the next ghost's pocket.

By now, Eileen wasn't scared at all.

She even felt that Simon was in her way, so she pushed herself in front of him and started rummaging through every ghost's pockets.

There were biscuits, seeds, candies, and chips in those pockets!

"Were you guys having a tea party while resting? You have everything!"

Eileen was very excited and after a round of rummaging, she made quite a haul.

She happily opened a bag of jelly, eating it while saying, "I'll go out and buy snacks to replace these for you."

All the ghosts looked at her impassively, obviously not believing her words.

At this moment, Jarvis' voice came from the other end of the corridor, "Over here!"

"Coming!" Eileen shouted and ran over with Simon.

Although the ghosts were very annoyed with their Wraith Ruler, they had no choice but to follow him.

Room 444 was opposite the room where Eileen and the others had stayed.

The door to the room was open, and it had the same musty smell as the room across the hall.

Eileen shone her flashlight inside and frowned.

Jarvis went in and looked around for a while before saying, "Seems like nothing's wrong here."

This room was obviously unoccupied. There was no bedding on the bed, just four bare metal frames.
