Chapter 710
710 Walked a Long Way The cloth bag was green and was suitable for holding newspapers. It matched his overcoat.
It was a teenager in a newspaper boy hat, Cody. His face was dirty, and he held something in his hand.
“He dared to come here?” Leo was rather shocked to see there were still spirits that dared to venture into this place.
That spirit was different from them, as it did not have any resentment. It could disintegrate easily if it went into the memorial hall.
Cody noticed some movement and turned to look in Wynter’s direction. His eyes lit up. “Hello. Finally, someone noticed me. I don’t know what’s going on, but no one could see me.”
“If others could see you, then they would get the exorcist.” Leo could not help admonishing him as he held his pacifier.
Wynter seemed to be thinking as she walked over while looking down at the envelope in the boy’s hand.
Cody wiped the sweat off his forehead. He seemed to have walked very far and was feeling tired.
“Miss, someone asked me to deliver a letter to this address for the Quinnells. Do you know Mr. Quinnell Senior?”
“I do. He is my grandpa.” Wynter did not try letting Cody know that he had passed away.
Spirits remained in the world because of hidden karma. And even more so, they depended on willpower to support them.
There was a sense of urgency in Cody, as if he had a very important mess for the Quinnells.
“Finally. I took a long train ride to get here. Northern Plains is so large that I nearly got lost. Even their trains are different.”
While smiling happily in relief, Cody said, “Could you please get Mr. Quinnell Senior for me? Everyone said I had to hand this letter to him personally. Then my trip this time would not be wasted.”
“Everyone?” Wynter noticed the word and raised her eyebrows while smiling slightly.
Cody was very thin and had injuries on his legs. He seemed to be hiding something as his eyes flickered.” Yes, everyone is waiting for Mr. Quinnell Senior.”
After saying this, his vision turned black, and he started to fall sideways.
Wynter’s reaction was quick, so she caught him. Her eyebrows furrowed as she asked, “What happened to him?”
“Master, he fainted from hunger.” Leo’s eyes widened and said, “I haven’t met a hungry spirit in a long time.
“Didn’t he say that he had a long train ride? Was there no food for him to smell on the train? It shouldn’t 710 Walked a Long Way

Wynter picked Cody up and walked directly to the kitchen. There was a lot of food in there. Wynter quickly whipped up some ham and vegetable paella for Cody.
He woke up after smelling the delicious aroma. He watched Wynter put down the pot and turn to him.”
You are awake. Come over and have some.”
“Master, I want to eat, too.” Leo, m
dazed by the aroma couldn’t help but twitch his nose.
Wynter made a large portion of paella, so she divided it into four shares.
The only difference was that Cody’s portion was large, and there was an apple for him.
Cody was at a loss. “No, my uncle told me not to take any money from the citizens.”
“This is not taking because this is my treat for you. I am a Quinnell, and the Quinnells
citizens.”
Wynter’s explanation made it difficult for him to refuse.
Cody was starving, too, so he accepted the food. “I will pay you back when I have money.”
“Sure.” Wynter did not force him. “Please.”
