Chapter 263: Treasure
When they reached the doorstep, Lilith took out the key hanging around her neck and opened the door. Looking into the pitch-black house, Lilith wasn't in a hurry to enter.
She turned back, made sure Loren was beside her, then cautiously reached her hand inside to flip the switch by the door. Only after the lights in the room came on did she let out a sigh of relief.
"Please wait a moment, I need to find something."
Lilith dove into her wardrobe, rummaged around for a good while, and finally pulled out a metal biscuit tin.
The corner of Loren's mouth twitched. Even in this world, there was this habit of storing things in biscuit tins.
Lilith sat on the bed, placed the biscuit tin between her and Loren, and opened it. Loren could see the contents inside. It was mostly miscellaneous items—coins, needles and thread, and everything in between.
After digging around for a bit, Lilith pulled out a key and placed it in Loren's hand.
"This is the key to my home. My home will always welcome you."
After giving Loren the key, Lilith immediately jumped off the bed without pause and started rummaging through the cabinet again. She eventually pulled out a worn-out umbrella.
