"N-no... it wasn't me. Mu Mu said..." Mu Linsen waved his hands helplessly, trying to explain, but the more anxious he became, the slower he spoke.

The sobbing Gao Mu was frightened pale. He stammered, "A... a big brother stole my Longevity Lock."
Gao Shiman immediately frowned. She glanced at Gao Mu's neck and saw that his Longevity Lock was indeed gone.
