The sudden turn of events left Li Zhenzhen and Su Zhe stunned.
The convenience store owner smiled at them, then turned and ran into the campus. His steps were incredibly light, nothing like those of a middle-aged man in his forties.
"He's possessed! Get him!!"
Li Zhenzhen immediately snapped out of it and took off after him, with Su Zhe close behind.
"Attention, everyone. The target has possessed a middle-aged man in his forties. Bald, wearing a brown vest, and running toward the lake," Li Zhenzhen said gravely as she activated her communicator.
"Received. We're heading over now," Fang Mo's voice promptly came through the communicator.
The possessed convenience store owner ran at an astonishing speed. He nimbly wove through Shangjing University's campus, using the crowds between classes and his familiarity with the terrain to force Li Zhenzhen far behind him.
In such a public place, Li Zhenzhen could not use her Forbidden Ruins. She could only keep weaving through the crowd, her gaze fixed tightly on the convenience store owner's back.
The convenience store owner glanced back. As he brushed past a student, the White Shadow drifted out of his body again and attached itself to a tall male student. It then turned and ran in another direction, leaving the convenience store owner standing there blankly, looking around with an expression as though he had seen a ghost.
"Damn it..." When Li Zhenzhen saw the Remnant Soul switch bodies, she immediately realized things had gone wrong. If it kept using the crowds here to change hosts, there was no way she could catch it.
Li Zhenzhen had not expected such a simple mission to find a Remnant Soul to become this troublesome.
"Su Zhe, keep chasing!" Li Zhenzhen shouted to Su Zhe, then rushed into the nearest teaching building.
