Chapter 140 - Make your wish, Xiao Ying (1/2)

Meanwhile, on the other side of the town, Kai Xin was happily entering AVENGE with a big box of presents after she replied DX.

She entered into her room on the ground floor and pulled the level. When the hidden slope appeared, it was covered with decorative balloons.

She smiled when she thought about how Ghost would like the presents that she prepared for him.

When she was almost on the upper floor, she saw Phantom and she tried to call out, "Phan-"

Phantom turned over and shook his head. With a finger on his lips, he signaled her to be quiet.

Curious, Kai Xin went all the way up to take a look.

She saw Ghost sitting on the couch while staring at the TV. His bright red haired matched the red velvet cake that Phantom made for him.

A woman voiced was heard.

"Xiao Ying..."

Kai Xin turned to the TV screen.

A young boy who was seen crouching and poking on the ground turned when he heard the voice.

He smiled brightly when he saw who it was that called out for him.

"Mama! Uncle Yuan!"

He quickly brushed off the dirt on his pants before running towards his mother and hugged her.

"Xiao Ying, Uncle Yuan bought a new camera and he said he can take videos of us today."

The boy looked up into the lens of the camera and smiled. With his curious eyes, he asked, "Can it take good photos as well?"

A man's voice can be heard laughing from behind the camera. The man replied, "Sure thing. Xiao Ying, go clean up. We will blow the birthday cake soon."

"Uhm!" said the boy happily before he rushed back into the house.

Kai Xin realized then that the boy with the thick black hair was Ghost and they were watching a birthday video.

Phantom whispered, "The man in the video was one of his neighbors back when he was still living with his mother. The man went missing many years ago while out on a fishing expedition and last year, he was declared dead by the court. When I went to visit on behalf of Ghost, his family gave me the tape..."

Glancing at the back of Ghost's head, he continued, "...I figure this would be something that he wanted."

Kai Xin looked at Phantom for a while before turning back to the TV.
