While Su Bai was in the Rest Room earlier, he had already seen what was happening in the shop through the Projector, including the three customers who had just entered. The clear images projected on the wall let him observe their every movement. Both their gait and their rigorously trained physiques convinced him that they were definitely not ordinary street thugs, nor were they likely to be passersby who had wandered in by chance.
After all, Su Bai had long since noticed that the three of them had been standing across the street for quite some time, watching the pedestrians coming and going.
"Looks like some special customers have arrived." Having formed a guess about their identities, Su Bai murmured to himself, the faintest hint of a smile lifting the corners of his mouth.
After returning from the Nightmare World, Su Bai had quietly moved the Mist Shop from Honghuai City to Qingliu City.
Qingliu City was, after all, where he would be studying in the future. Qingliu University had been his first choice when he applied. Although the admission results had yet to come out, Su Bai was confident in his grades and did not expect any problems.
Even so, Su Bai had not rushed to move his mother and their home here as planned. His mother, Lin Wan, was still in poor health and spent long stretches of each day in a deep sleep. Rather than moving her to unfamiliar surroundings at a time like this, it was better to let her recuperate at home.
The Mist Shop's unique abilities also allowed Su Bai to travel freely between the shop and his home. That way, he could run the shop while returning to look after his mother whenever he needed to, so his daily life remained convenient enough.
