Enchanted By His Charm



The old man nodded and then said, "Well, then follow me."

Jay walked out of the room with the old man and headed up into the lighthouse.

On the way, Jay saw a man sweeping intently. It seemed that time was fixed here at the moment.

Everything was tranquil, but Jay was a bit unsettled. He had no idea who he would meet. Jay clenched his cell phone and believed his colleagues would track his whereabouts. 

The old man finally stopped in front of a room.

The door was opened, and a Christ statue was set on the table. A faint fragrance smell floated in the air, which was hard to detect.

The room was furnished with a table, a chair, and a single tatami.

The old man pointed in a direction and said to Jay, "Please look at the girl. Do you know her?"

It was then Jay found that a young girl was lying on the that Mimi instilled.

The light penetrated from the window, pouring on the girl's face, and soon Jay saw a similar side face.

"Lilith!" Shocked, Jay rushed forth while the old man just stood there without movement.

Lilith lay there still, her eyes closed as if sleeping there.

Jay rushed to her and shook her body gently but didn't get any response from her. Jay was so anxious to see this, and he couldn't help but yell at the old man, "What's wrong with her?"

The old man did not get mad at Jay's rude attitude but replied to him in a low voice, "That's what she looked like when she was found. We also invited doctors here, but they failed to find out what's wrong with her."

"What do you mean? Where did you find her?" asked Jay anxiously.

The old man then told him the whole story.

Lilith was found at the back of the lighthouse, and she was in a coma then. The lighthouse keepers thought she was a visitor here, but no one came to find her after waiting for a long time. They had no idea who to contact, so they called the steward over.

The steward was going to call the police but then found the girl clenched her hands tightly, so he asked someone to check out if something was in her hand. To his surprise, there was a slip of paper in her hands that said please take this woman in for one night, and someone with jackfruit leaf would come to her the next day.

The steward realized it was not a simple case, but he dared not to act rashly. He followed the words and decided to see what would happen the next day. If no one came here, the old man was determined to call the police.

Out of his expectation, Jay came here with a jackfruit leaf.

However, the old man didn't expect that Jay was also not clear about the situation, so after hesitation for a while, the steward decided to lead Jay to have a look, and if he knew nothing about the condition, then the old man would ask for help from the police.

Jay started calling Lilith again but got no response from her.

Jay was helpless and then asked the old man again. 

"When did you find her? Have you met her before?"

The old man stared at Jay suspiciously while Jay took out his police certificate.

"I am a cap," said Jay while looking into the man's eyes.

The old man was assured and then responded, "We found her toward evening yesterday. She looked unfamiliar, and it seemed that it was her first time coming here."

Jay looked at Lilith, who was in a coma, and clenched his hand into a fist.

'Damn it! What does the evil angel mean?' thought Jay to himself.

"Didn't you find any questionable person here?" asked Jay, who was full of rage.

The old man didn't understand what Jay meant, so he furrowed his eyebrows.

"Or have you ever harbored criminals here?" Jay rushed to the old man and held his collar.

Shocked, the steward didn't expect Jay would act so abruptly.

"You better be frank with me. Who took this woman here?" Jay was irritated and as if he would explode at any time.

The steward was flurried and hastily explained, "Please don't misunderstand. We didn't..."

"But if you have nothing to do with those drug dealers, why would they send my girlfriend here?" yelled Jay, who lost his mind.

Others in the lighthouse also heard the screaming, and they all rushed to check out what happened. All of them were shocked as they found a man shouting at their steward. And soon, several caps rushed into the lighthouse, running towards where Jay was.

Lenard led the group and got to the room. Lenard hastily ran to Jay, trying to calm him down, and then asked in a low voice, "What happened? Where are drug dealers?"

The monitoring group also heard Jay's screaming through the microphone and realized something must happen there, so they immediately adjusted their plan.

Jay's rage was extinct soon, and he was in a low spirit, knowing that their plan failed again. Those drug dealers were as crafty as foxes. Although Jay sensed something weird, it was too late for him to understand.

None of them cared about if Jay would come here alone, and they must get to know that a lot of caps defended here, so they would definitely not show up. Of course, Jay also understood the drug dealers were fraudulent, so he tried his best to lead them into his trap. However, to his surprise, those drug dealers didn't show up at all the next day.

Lenard walked forward and was shocked since he found Lilith lying there.

"You also heard that just now, those drug dealers mapped out a big plan," Jay said, clenching his hands. 

Stepping to Lilith, Lenard began to call her softly but got no response.

"There is no use calling her. She has been in a coma for a long time," said Jay, who looked sorrowful.

But there were no bruises on her, and she also breathed smoothly, making her look like she was sleeping soundly.

However, Lenard still felt worried, and then he moved his hands to feel Lilith's breath.

"I have called the ambulance in advance since I am afraid that you and Lilith will get hurt when fighting with those drug dealers. Let's send her to the hospital now," suggested Lenard.

Although Jay was not reconciled to being fooled by the drug dealers, Jay was clear Lilith was in a dangerous situation. He held Lilith into his arms without hesitation and then asked the old man, "Where is the note?"

The old man took it out and handed it to Jay.

Taking a glance, Jay soon understood and said while gnashing his teeth in anger, "They are experienced and astute, but I am not going to give in. Just wait and see."

Jay left as soon as he finished his sentence.

Jay thought the note was the last clue, so he tried to find some information from the handwriting. However, it was printed, and he could get nothing useful from it, meaning the drug dealers had deployed everything. 

But Lenard couldn't figure out what their real goal was.

They kidnapped Jay and then asked him to take Lilith back. It sounded so weird.

Perhaps that was something Jay couldn't figure out, and it irritated Jay. The old man apologized since he couldn't offer any help. Lenard also followed Jay to leave immediately.
