After seeing Milo busy in the kitchen, Julian decided to call Karl and the others. He first went to his room, feeling a bit helpless. Recently, Karl had been talking to him less and spending more time in his own room. This change in behavior made Julian feel uneasy and worried.
"Brother Karl..." Julian called out softly, stepping into his room. He found Karl lying face down on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, his body still and lifeless.
"Are you feeling sick again?" Julian asked, his voice full of concern. "Last night, you spent so much time in the bathroom... Maybe you've got food poisoning again. Oh, God, Madame Shades is such a heartless witch. She actually gave you expired cookies. And you're acting like an expired ghost yourself..."
Julian's anger flared up as he thought about how Madame Shades had given them those awful cookies. He couldn't believe she'd be so heartless.
