"The part that's busted is the area beneath the basin..." The maid added.
Betty Starmount instantly panicked when she heard this...
When she was washing her hands this morning, the platinum pendant around her neck had accidentally cundone...
After that, the translucent bead inside fell into the basin hole...
Did that thing fall all the way down? What if it accidentally clung to the outer wall or was stuck somewhere? What if Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton discovered something unusual about it. What would Betty do? However, after thinking carefully, Betty felt that the odds were seemingly minute.
Very quickly, Betty let out a long sigh of relief...

Xyla had a look of shock in her eyes when she heard this. "Do you know how to fix it?" Xyla really didn't expect that a seemingly gentle and demure lady like Betty would actually know how to do stuff like this.
Betty smiled. "Yeah, I do..." "Let the plumber fix it. It's dirty..." Stanley said blandly.
After that, Stanley looked at the maid. "Go and fetch someone." However, Betty instantly chuckled when she saw this. She walked into the bathroom. "It's fine. I'll take care of something minor like this. You two shouldn't bother yourselves with it. Get to work if you need to..." With that, Betty rolled up her sleeves and stepped into the bathroom...
As soon as she entered, she dashed toward the basin...
Right then, the cabbeneath the basin was open. Betty could see that the area connecting the basin and the pipe beneath it was busted...
This wasn't the main point. The main point was that the faucet above the basin was left open.
Water was flowing all over the place...
When Betty saw this, she tried to turn the faucet off. However, she discovered that the faucet wasn't working. She couldn't turn it off at all...
Immediately after that, Betty shifted her gaze to the sluice valves.
However, she noticed that the handwheels on the sluice valves had already fallen off. Right then, all the sluice valves were bare. There wasn't even any mechanism for her to operate...

Water continued to flow out...
It had overflown the basin and was all over the floor.
The entire world seemed almost like an ocean.
Out of curiosity, Xyla, Stanley, and Jeremy entered the bathroom.
When they saw the flood in the bathroom, all three of them took in a breath of cold air.
"Hurry up and get someone to fix it..." Jeremy looked at Xyla and said.
After that, Jeremy stepped forward and tried to turn off the faucet m However, he discovered that it didn't work at all.
Seeing that all three of them had entered, Betty tried her best to calm her nerves Shedooked at them while pretending to be calm. "Honestly, it's fine..."
Betty noticed a wrench pouch in the cabunder the basin. She quickly opened the pouch and retrieved a wrench before using it as a replacement for handwheels to turn off all the sluice valves... Right then, the faucet stopped leaking... X
