Because of Dox's words, Gengar and Second Treasure seemed to accept Angel's explanation as well and stopped pressing the matter.
However, that was not the only reason they had come here.
There was something else that concerned them even more.
Second Treasure asked, "Have you encountered Childlike Heart?"

Perhaps it really was possible that Angel had
