“What’s going on?”

Lauren asked the manager about the situation as she walked into the park, while Ben locked the car and followed closely behind.

“We’re still trying to understand the exact situation. Fifteen minutes ago, a woman approached a staff member and said that her child was missing. When I received this news, I immediately called the police and informed you.”

When they went to the manager’s office, the woman who had lost her child was sobbing. The police officers had already arrived and were at the scene to understand the situation.

“My name is Sophia Brook, and my daughter’s name is Isabella Brook. She’s only six years old!”

The police officers comforted her as they asked her about the entire process.

“I don’t know…I went to buy balloons. My daughter was clearly standing right next to me. In just a few seconds, I couldn’t find her.”

Then, the manager brought the police officer to the surveillance hall. Lauren followed quietly behind.

“Who is this little girl?” The police officer pointed at Lauren. “People who are not related to the case are not allowed to touch these things.”

“Oh right, where is your boss? We need your boss to assist in the investigation after such a thing happened.”

The manager was in a difficult position. Under such circumstances, he could only tell the truth.

“Well, sheriff, this little girl is the boss of our amusement park. She’s not registered under the enterprise, but she is indeed the boss.”

Looking at the child who was not even half as tall as him, the sheriff fell into a few seconds of contemplation. He thought, ‘Alright, whatever you say.’

“Have you found the surveillance footage?”

“Yes.”

The few of them went forward to take a look. Lauren was not tall enough, so she could only stand on her tiptoes and watch with difficulty.

Sophia appeared on the screen. Just as what she had mentioned, she was buying balloons at the amusement park, and her daughter was standing at the side obediently.

Suddenly, for some reason, her daughter walked in another direction. Soon, she walked into the crowd and disappear.

The police officer knocked on the table with the folder in his hand. “Did the same thing happen to you once?”

The manager nodded, a little scared. “Yes, two years ago, something similar happened. A little girl also suddenly left like this time.”

Sophia, who was sobbing at the side, heard this and immediately shouted crazily, “No way! My girl is so obedient, she definitely won’t leave by herself!”

“Isabella, what should I do if you disappear? ! You’re all I have left!” Sophia cried her heart out in the surveillance room.

The police continued to check the surveillance footage of the other sections of the road.

Lauren bit her lip and did not say a word. The others could not see, but she did. It was that little ghost again.

“Get the surveillance footage from two blocks away from the amusement park and find out where the little girl went.”

The case from two years ago ended without a proper conclusion because the nearby facilities were not yet complete. There was no surveillance footage, so it was impossible to track Lily’s whereabouts.

But now, the nearby areas had been developed, and almost every place had surveillance cameras.

“Huh? Who is this?”

“Mrs. Sophia Brook, please come over and see if this is your daughter, Isabella Brook?”

Sophia cried so hard that she did not have any strength left. She was supported by a female police officer and immediately recognized that it was her daughter.

“Yes, it’s my Isabella! Who Is this man? He must have abducted Isabella!”

Sophia became agitated again and the police officer had no choice but to pull her away.

Without anyone blocking her view, Lauren finally saw the man they were talking about.

It was actually…

Ben and Lauren looked at each other. They could see the astonishment in each other’s eyes. It was actually the old man they met on the way here!

They had thought that the little girl he was holding was his granddaughter!

“Find out who this old man is.”

The police continued to watch their movements. For a period of time, their figures were completely blocked by the endless stream of traffic. When they reappeared, Isabella was already gone.

Only the old man was left on the street, seemingly at a loss. He stood there in a daze for a few minutes, looking left and right before slowly walking in the opposite direction.

His walking speed was obviously much slower. The police repeatedly looked at the footage, but still could not find any clues.

They brought Sophia back to the police station to make a statement, and then backed up the surveillance video.

“If you have any other clues on your side, try to provide them to us.”

The manager agreed and sent the few police officers out.

As this matter was not publicized, the amusement park was still bustling with noise and excitement.

Ben pushed Lauren, who had been in a daze after watching the surveillance video.

“Miss Torres, what have you thought of?”

And at this moment, there were only four words in Lauren’s mind.

Possessed by a ghost.
