Lin Cheng narrowed his eyes.
When he first heard about an S-Rank awakening, he instinctively thought it was the Peddler he had lured there.
But the Ghost Brain quickly checked everything and spotted an inconsistency.
The Peddler moved with extreme secrecy. The odds of Liu San's paper doubles encountering him were infinitesimal.
More importantly, when Lin Cheng had used the Ghost Brain to rewrite the Peddler's logic,
the final command he had given him was to head northwest and obtain stock from Fang Shiming and Red Ning.
