Chereads / Spookstad mystery / Chapter 3 - who's she...

Chapter 3 - who's she...

"Wow! This isn't a village, but a cool little town!" Ali said enthusiastically, his eyes darting here and there looking at the magnificent buildings similar to an old city, There are lots of old Dutch house models.

"Ah... thank goodness! There are other people here besides us, we are lucky to have found this place." Ana said happily.

"Maybe our teacher and group of friends are also here, Let's go around town!" Get Aldo excited.

"Let's go!!" Ana and Ali said excitedly.

Meanwhile, Irene and Bagas continued to watch the surroundings vigilantly, Bagas continued to pay attention to the look on the girl's face next to him and was reluctant to make a sound because Irene had only been silent for a long time.

"Is there something wrong with my eyes? Is the ability to see ghosts no longer there because of the accident just now?"

"That's not possible, But do you really feel like your abilities are gone?" Bagas looked at Irene concerned.

"Whether I'm the strange one or this city is the strange one, I can't see any visible creatures in this city." Irene continued to rub her eyes, Bagas grabbed Irene's hand to stop her.

"I believe you, so let's act carefully and be more alert now, Let's follow the three of them." Bagas took Irene's hand and hurried to follow Ana, Ali and Aldo who had already walked far away from the two of them.

...

"Wow! Look, there's a sausage shop there!" Ali pointed in the direction in question.

"Wait Li, Do you really have money, while our bags are lost somewhere?" Ana stops Ali.

"I have... look here." Ali reached into his trouser pocket and found five hundred bills.

"Wow! You have a lot of money, you must have taken it from your mother's shop, huh?" Ali chuckled, confirming Aldo's words.

"Never mind...let's buy as much as we like, I'll pay."

"Hooray!!" Ana and Aldo cheered with joy, making Bagas and Irene chuckle at the behavior of the three of them who changed their mood so easily.

From a distance the aroma of delicious grilled sausages could be smelled, Anyone who is hungry will definitely want to immediately buy that grilled sausage.

"Excuse me bro! I want to buy grilled sausages,How much does one sausage cost?" Ali asked politely.

"It's free!! If you want, just take it." The sausage shop keeper's words made the five friends look at each other in disbelief.

"Is this April Fool's Day?" Ana whispered, the other four friends shook their heads, Because they are on a study tour in December.

"Don't joke, bro! Even though we look like lost people, we have money." Aldo explained, but it actually made the sausage seller laugh.

"Even though I'm laughing right now, I'm not kidding, Are you new arrivals here? Is that why you don't know the rules in this city? I'll get it for the five of you." The sausage seller gave five packs of sausages, each containing 2 sausages per pack.

The five friends were still surprised, What does it mean by new arrivals? But because they were hungry they ate the sausage without hesitation.

"Bro, please give me one sausage and one scalop." A girl with long hair, standing in front of the sausage shop.

"Hi Liya, coincidentally you are here, Please take these five people to Mr. Gustavo." Liya looked up and observed the five friends.

"Okay, I'll take them, thanks for the sausage."

"Five of you, come with this girl, Two will take you to the village leader so you can get a place to stay."

"Follow me!" Liya stared at the five friends for a moment then walked towards the city center.

None of the five nodded in agreement, but they still followed Liya's steps, they thought maybe this was the tradition here, If they want to stay here temporarily, don't they have to follow the rules too?

Beautiful girl with olive skin and round brown eyes, His eyes were empty like a dead person, But Aldo couldn't take his eyes off this girl, He remembered his girlfriend Ghea, who dated Aldo for three years while they were in junior high school. Are they the same person, she looks so similar to him, Aldo shook his head feeling that there was no such possibility.

"Ghea..." Aldo muttered, making the girl walking in front of him look at him.

"Did you call me?" Liya looked at Aldo seriously, making him stutter.

"Hi, my name is Aldo, your name is Liya, right? Can we be friends." Liya looked cynically at Aldo, ignoring him who reached out his hand. Liya continued her steps.

"Am I wrong? Wouldn't you like to take us to the leader's house." Aldo quickened his steps and walked beside Liya.

"Don't bother me and don't talk to me, just walk." Aldo couldn't say any more, he was surprised by this girl. Bagas grabbed Aldo's hand, gesturing for him not to bother Liya anymore.

After walking for half an hour they finally arrived at the north of the city, A magnificent building like the presidential palace, standing majestically and firmly before them, The palace gate was guarded by two people dressed all in black with strange faces.

"What do you need to come here?" asked one of the guards with a slight snarl.

"Is Mr. Gustavo there? I brought five newcomers." Liya looked back to show the five friends.

"Wait a moment! I'll tell Mr.Gustavo first." Said another guard and immediately rushed in to inform.

In less than five minutes the guard was back, He was fast even though he had to pass through a large yard and a building this big.

"Please come in, Mr. Gustavo is very pleased with your arrival." The guard smiled, a strange smile with sharp black teeth in Irene's eyes.

"Oh yes miss, you should also come in, Mr. Gustavo wants to talk to you." Liya nodded and stepped through the gate together with her five friends, escorted by two more guards who had been beside them for some time.

How impressed the five friends were, all the floors were covered in marble, large crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, All objects in this building are covered with gold and silver.

They all finally arrived in a room that had a large wooden door, This room is located on the third floor, because they climbed two stairs. A booming voice could be heard from behind the door, making the five friends jump in surprise. When the door opened, you could clearly see a large man sitting behind the work desk. He has a face like a Dutch person.

"I'm so happy to meet you... you're great because you can enter my territory without my knowledge. Come on, come closer...I want to see you closer, the light shimmers like fireflies, I really like that this place is brighter thanks to you." Mr. Gustavo laughed while waving his hand towards the five friends.

Mr. Gustavo got up from his seat, the two guards who accompanied the five friends hurried out of the room, Mr. Gustavo stepped closer to the five friends who looked nervous because they were afraid.
