As night fell and all the custors of the day were seen off, the shop closed, Mu You switched his perspective to the Battle Eagle.

Throughout the day, he never loosened his surveillance on the two n.

After leaving in the morning, they were followed by the Battle Eagle to a hotel in the city, seemingly their temporary dwelling.

The Battle Eagle then waited close to the hotel.

They only reappeared at ten in the evening!

The two left the hotel under the guise of an Invisible Cloak, probably aiming to avoid surveillance, but they were clearly visible from the Battle Eagle’s perspective.

This ti the two seed to have a clear target, and as soon as they left, they headed directly for a certain direction in the southern part of the city.

Mu You speculated that they must have found the location of their ‘target’, so he prepared to leave, activated his Stealth Card, and began to follow them.

It was a cloudy night.

The sky was covered with thick clouds, obscuring any starlight or the moon, but that made it easier for him to move.

Under the vampiric skin’s high amplification, Mu You chased the two for over three hours before finally reaching his destination.

What surprised Mu You was that they had run to the abandoned building on the outskirts in the southern part of the city.

This land was bought by a real-estate developer last year, intending to develop a new residential district here.

But after the announcent of the testing results, Spatial Equipnt flooded Earth, causing a significant drop in land and house prices.

Consequently, the construction project here was forced to cease, resulting in nurous unfinished buildings.

“Why did they co here?

Is their ‘target’ here?”

Mu You couldn’t figure out their purpose for the mont, so he decided to take advantage of the situation to capture them both, and then interrogate them to understand the situation better.

Once he confird that this was indeed their destination, Mu You accelerated to arrive ahead of them and ambushed them in a dark alley.

He prepared the Chain Claws and the storage bottle in his hand, cast the Silence Curse and readied to carry out his capturing plan.

After the two rushed into the cluster of abandoned buildings, the Battle Eagle lost its sight.

However, they were very close to Mu You.

Mu You listened carefully for a while and quickly confird their footsteps.

To his surprise, there was a third set of footsteps on the scene!

The sound of wooden clogs continually stepping on cent panels echoed loudly in the empty abandoned building cluster.

Accompanying the sound of clogs was the sound of panting; soone was struggling to run ahead.

Their movents seed cumberso, while the two chasing footsteps behind them seed so calm and composed, the distance between the two parties was rapidly closing.

Until a certain mont, Mu You heard a child’s scream from afar.

However, the scream abruptly stopped, as if soone had covered her mouth.

Ten seconds later, the two footsteps resounded again and began rapidly approaching Mu You.

…

“Damn it, we finally caught it!

This little jerk is really slippery!”

“Should we hand it straight over?

Or should we take it for research first?

I feel this kid has a big secret!”

“Research?

Forget it, we’ll hand over the task once we get back.

This girl is too weird, we’re paid to do the job, better do less than more…”

“Alright, who will make contact?”

“I will…

let’s talk about it once we’re back…”

…

The two of them conversed as they ran past the abandoned buildings.

However, what they didn’t notice was that as they ran past an alley, a hook claw silently shot out from the darkness and accurately hooked onto the young man behind and yanked him deep into the alley.

“Da Yuan?”

The man running ahead suddenly felt eerily silent behind him.

When he looked back, he realised that his companion had vanished out of sight, and along with him, their freshly captured ‘target’ as well.

“Damn!”

The man was imdiately startled and realised sothing.

Could soone else be hiding around this area?

Just as he thought that, a set of footsteps sounded from the dark alley nearby.

“Who’s there?”

The man broke out into a cold sweat and pointed his Magic Wand towards the source of the sound like a major enemy.

He could recognise the footsteps; they certainly weren’t his companion’s.

Just as he hesitated whether he should strike first, the footsteps had already reached the mouth of the alley.

Through so far-off neon lights, he barely made out a man walking out from the alley, holding a bird cage in his hand.

The mont the man saw the bird cage, he felt a mont of dizziness, and he seed to lose his orientation.

His mind beca fuzzy as he clumsily walked towards the alley.

…

When he snapped back to reality, he was horrified to find himself in an unfamiliar space.

It seed to be inside a glass bottle that had been enlarged hundreds of tis.

His companion, Da Yuan, was by his side, but both of them were entwined in Bindweeds sprouting from the ground, completely incapacitated.

In front of them stood a man who looked like a vampire, a raven on his shoulder, and a bird cage in his hand.

He recognized the bird in the cage: a Fwooper, a special bird species that could control living creatures with its gaze.

According to what he knew, there’s only one place in the city that had this bird, and it’s the currently trending Odd Pet Shop on the internet!

“Are you the owner of that pet shop?” The man spoke with a surprised tone.

The two of them glanced at each other, instinctively feeling a sense of panic.

This guy has got a background in the bureau for investigating anomalies!

And for people like them who don’t have a clean background, the last thing they want is to deal with an official organization from the bureau.

They had just managed to get their hands on the ‘target’ and imdiately bumped into an official.

This made the two of them feel nervous.

Could it be that the mission they accepted was already known to the bureau, and they were specifically sent to bait and enforce the law here?

Ignoring the two’s turmoil, Mu You untied the rope on the burlap bag in his hand.

Inside the bag was the so-called ‘target’ that had been conveniently seized by him.

When he opened the bag and looked inside.

As expected, unconscious inside the bag was the little girl in a kimono from the day ti.

This at least confird that what he experienced in the morning wasn’t a dream.

Also, when capturing these two n just now, he once again felt the agitation of the Shadow Ghost.

However, this ti Mu You understood clearly.

The Shadow Ghost indeed showed an angry emotion towards these two n, but it was not because they had anything to do with the Shadow Ghost.

It was their intention to harm this little girl that agitated the Shadow Ghost.

That is to say, the one really connected with the Shadow Ghost was the little girl in the bag!

“Could she be the actual body of the Shadow Ghost?”

Mu You imdiately thought of this possibility and hastily conjured an Illumination Technique in his hand and shone it inside the bag.

There’s a simple way to identify whether soone is a Shadow Ghost, and that is to see if they don’t have a shadow.

However, to his disappointnt, the girl showed a normal shadow under the illumination; she was not the master of the Shadow Ghost.
