So, when the Tomb Ghost came to its senses, it realized it was already following behind this human.
Though a little surprised, its heart settled down again.
Something so important...
It had to get it back.
"Then you've been following Uncle Chen for several days. Haven't you noticed anything?"
Xiao Xiao asked, puzzled.
The Tomb Ghost had practically been tailing and monitoring Uncle Chen around the clock.
It should have known everything Uncle Chen had done.
Uncle Chen's behavior earlier had made everything clear.
He really didn't know what he'd taken from the Tomb Ghost. Before this, he hadn't even known it was around him. In other words, he wouldn't have deliberately hidden the item.
If the Tomb Ghost didn't know what it was looking for...
But its instincts had already kicked in. Something that important—once the Tomb Ghost saw it, it should know that was what it had been looking for.
And yet, after several days, the Tomb Ghost was still following the Middle-aged Man.
The Tomb Ghost shook its head.
If it had found anything, it would have taken it back already.
"Then can you be sure the item is still with Uncle Chen?"
Xiao Xiao thought of another possibility.
What if it was no longer on Uncle Chen, and that was why the Tomb Ghost hadn't been able to find it, no matter how hard it looked?
A trace of confusion showed in the Tomb Ghost's single eye.
Then it nodded.
Yes.
It was sure.
For no reason it could explain, its heart told it the item it wanted was beside this human.
Seeing how serious the monster looked, Xiao Xiao seemed a little helpless.
What a creature that trusted only its feelings.
Perhaps this was the so-called mysterious connection of fate?
