Chapter 620 God’s Blessings
After Leo brought Lily away, Wynter glanced at the clock in the laboratory before picking up an iron rod.
As she moved toward the clock, the scent of blood grew stronger.
Behind her, Gabby seemed frightened as he called out to Wynter with each step. Ignoring him, Wynter observed the corridor before raising her hand to flick on the light switch.
“Just as I
st as I suspected, it’s an Eight Trigrams Formation.”
Wynter had found the laboratory’s layout peculiar since they entered.
It was circular on the outside, with the energy converging at one point. The paintings on the walls had
strategic placements, and the terrain was slightly uneven.
Wynter poured some solution from a wooden rack to find the lowest point on the ground. Following the flow, she spotted a well not far away.
Although the water was collecting on the surface, it trapped souls beneath.
Wynter’s eyes narrowed slightly. This was the spot.
Gabby clutched her hand. “Are we really going over there? It looks so scary.”
“It might be scary for others, but it isn’t scary for you,” Wynter retorted.
Gabby looked puzzled. “What are you talking about?”
“Are you still going to pretend?” Wynter glanced at his feet and continued, “Foplyanese girls wear wooden clogs and take small, quick steps. That’s a habit you haven’t managed to change.”
A nervous smile appeared on Gabby’s innocent face. “What are you talking about, miss? I’m a boy. After I came here, the teachers taught us to walk this way.”
“There’s no need to pretend now that it’s just the two of us,” Wynter said calmly.
Suddenly, Gabby’s hair began to grow longer, and his clothes started to transform. “When did you start suspecting me? Was it just now?”
Wynter remained calm. “I suspected you before we entered. I usually don’t guard against children, and you had no resentment, so you seemed to have a pure soul. However, something was off. Children usually avoid things they fear.
“For example, all the children were afraid of the detention room. Even if they were brainwashed, they would try to stay away from it. But you didn’t seem terrified, only apologetic.
“After seeing how fearful Lily was of you, I became even more certain of your identity.
“It’s difficult for adults to monitor children’s true feelings and thoughts because children tend to hide things from their teachers. However, they are more willing to share their feelings with their peers.”
The little boy had turned into a girl wearing a traditional Foplya dress.

“It’s rare to find a Cascadian who knows so much. Since you know I’m not an ordinary human, you should be smart enough to decide in your best interest. Cascadia is doomed soon.
“If it weren’t for those adults who smoke opium, how could it be so easy for us to get our hands on those children? My loyal servants brought me to Cascadia to worship me. Now, I’ve regained my human form.”
The girl walked to Wynter in her wooden clogs. “Soon, I’ll achi
