Chapter 730

Maja took a deep breath and turned to the man in charge, “Let’s play a game, shall we?”

The man thought he had misheard. It was a peculiar time for games.

Maja looked at him, “You guys have taken over the building, so I can’t just disappear. Plus, that object is important to you and me. I wouldn’t bat an eye even if you offended some unimportant people. So let’s play a game. If I lose, I’ll tell you where my mom hid the object.”

The man raised an eyebrow, pointing his gun at her forehead with a jerk.

“Do you really think I would believe you?”

Maja wasn’t scared at all. She just looked at him calmly, “You have no choice but to trust me. I’m the only one who knows where the object is,”

“Ms. Pennyfeather, do you even know what we’re looking for?”

The muzzle was closer to her forehead. One wrong answer, and she’d be done for.

But Maja remained composed.

“You’re looking for an object that looked like a jellyfish, a seal, right?”

She didn’t really remember, but seeing the jellyfish tattoo on the man’s hand, she suddenly remembered that she used to have something like that at home.

It was a seal shaped like a jellyfish, very unique, so she remembered.

But at home, it was just used as a table mat.

Once, when Lillian examined the object, she asked her, “Maja, do you like this?”

“Mom, it’s weird. It has a peculiar shape.”

Lillian patted her head, “Remember the shape of this object. You might need it someday, but I hope you never have to. You’re my daughter, and if you’re ever bullied, this object might come in handy.”
