Chapters 15. Replacement Lantern



It took two days for Kenzo to prepare for the disguise. All can not be separated from the hard work of a Jeff. But unexpectedly, the lanterns easily recognize just by hearing Kenzo's heavy voice.


Not wanting his struggle to go to waste, Kenzo was forced to threaten the Lantern. It was only the last chance he could do so, although at first Kenzo did not want to get it forcibly.


Come to think of it, there is no harm either. The proof, now Lantern is one car with him, is heading to Kenzo's residence. Rather than dealing with the police, Lanterns clearly prefer to obey Kenzo's wishes.


Including, living together? I don't know, Lanterns don't know what to do. Now he has no choice but to obey Kenzo's wishes. Although Lanterns do not know, it will be until when it can survive.


Only the results of a DNA test can determine his life's fate now. Prison or being Vanessa's twin sister? Her little heart said, Lanterns do not want to be anyone's twin sister. But logic says otherwise, Lanterns do not want to go to jail for Kenzo's power and madness.


His life was already quite complicated when he became the only child of the Permana family. Then what would happen if Lantern was really Vanessa's long-lost twin sister?


The car stopped at the grounds of Kenzo's mansion. The lantern gasped in shock as someone held onto his shoulder. Not felt, during the trip home from school only he went through with daydreams.


"What are you thinking? Come on in."


Smooth and attentive. Since then the soft tone that continuously came out of Kenzo's lips. Lanterns almost fell asleep, if not remembering how Kenzo tried to manipulate himself and control his life.


"Come in" Kenzo walked into the living room, and pointed to a room on the second floor. "From now on it will be your room."


"Am I really going to stay here?" tanya Lantern pasrah.


Kenzo nodded. He was not willing to let the lanterns stay in a small airtight contract. Yes, Kenzo did have time to visit a small contract that lived in Lantern before. Even for five minutes, Kenzo couldn't stand being in that little room.


In addition to small, lanterns also do not have good air circulation. The ceiling is slightly lower than the next contract. With its financial capabilities, perhaps only that small contract can afford a rental lantern.


"Then, what about where I live?"


"Forget that little, shabby contract, from now on you'll be living in this house with me." Kenzo sat down to see Jeff just arrived.


"But my clothes are still there?" Not just clothes, there are still some old people's memorable items that are still left there. Actually Lanterns are also not ready if you have to be in one house with Kenzo.


"You can take it another time, now go into your room. I have to finish my job." Without changing his appearance, Kenzo moved to the workspace. Followed Jeff from behind with his flat face.


Seeing that the room was already very quiet, the Lantern sighed. Bad luck has continued to follow since he met Kenzo. What about the fate of his contract? Lanterns have even paid off for the next month.


My rent was wasted, huftt... . All right, next time I'll take my things.


Arriving inside the room, Lanterns were quite astonished by the state inside. All are neatly arranged, there is a study table containing books that Lantern longed for. However, the bright pink and white color of the room that fills the corner of the room almost makes it choke.


Even the cup on the table was in line with the blanket spread on the mattress. Pink with some pictures of hello Kitty in it. The lanterns were dumbfounded, dropping the bag. Some people may be happy when they get this room, but not all women like the color pink.


Rather than pink, lanterns actually prefer the feel of black and white rooms. However, there was nothing he could do but accept this room. It was also impossible for him to ask Kenzo to change his room to the color he liked.


"Well, now you can't choose whatever you want. Your life is no longer you who control it, Lantern."


The lantern dropped the body on the mattress. Now should what? Kenzo had already banned himself from going anywhere. Then there is nothing obligatory that Lanterns should do other than sleep on an empty stomach.


Up to an hour passed, Lantern woke up due to a stomach that had been very rumbling. Glancing at the clock inside the phone screen, the time shows five o'clock in the afternoon. The lantern sits.


"Has he not finished?"


While holding onto the rumbling stomach, the lantern quietly walked out. The lantern was hungry, but there was no one in the living room he could question. It seems Kenzo is not done with his work.


"Hungry, but there's nothing to ask for help." The lantern snorted, a crazy idea suddenly flashed through his mind. "Should I steal food?"


"Ah no-no! Stealing is not good!" The lanterns shook quickly. "But I'm hungry, don't know where Kenzo's room is either."


In a house this big, lanterns certainly have a little trouble finding a room. The thing is, no one is in sight. Even though it was afternoon.


"Haiss why hasn't Kenzo returned yet? Are they hungry?"


The lantern closed its eyes. With the power of its smell, Lanterns try to find where the kitchen is located. If there is no rice and side dishes at least there are still fruits or snacks stored in the kulas.


Apparently not in vain lanterns rely on the sense of smell. After passing through one room, he finally found a large refrigerator in the kitchen. Without the ba-bi-bu, the lantern opened it.


Not in the least, there are many fresh vegetables and one type of fruit in it. In order to prop up the stomach, Lantern decided to take a packet of wine. It's impossible to eat raw vegetables, isn't it?


"What are you doing, Miss?"


The lantern was stunned, its head hit the door of the fungus that was suddenly closed. While enduring the pain, the lantern hid the wine while turning over. A middle-aged man was now standing before him, carrying a pack of shopping bags.


"Anu, that's ...." The lantern rubbed the still-painful head, unsure what to answer.


"Are you okay?" The man approached, "My name is Didi, Miss can call me if you need anything. Are you hungry, Miss?"


The lantern stiffened, its stomach suddenly sounding very loudly. Mr. Didi just chuckled, letting the Lantern go with his embarrassment.


Arriving inside the room, the lantern slammed the door. Dropped the wine and covered his face with both hands.


"Huuaaa.. I'm ashamed!"


After nearly being caught stealing wine, he was also caught coming to the kitchen due to hunger. It's like rats stealing food. What if someone realizes a packet of wine has been stolen?
