Luo Jian decided to help his uncle find the real culprit as secretly spying on his uncle He put his plan into action the next day He began to follow his uncle 24 hours a day, froht His actions were pretty crazy, but Luo Jian’s parents had not seen their son for a long time and e in whatever he was doing and let Luo Jian freely do what he wanted to
Although his uncle did not like the 24-hour surveillance, he did not refuse it outright Therefore, after tailing his uncle, Luo Jian actually discovered so after his shop Since he was getting older, his movements were inflexible, so he hired a student as on holiday to help him look after the shop When the as shared, there was not much to do When he was free, he could read books, raise flowers and plants, and raise canaries Overall, his life was quite leisurely
Luo Jian spent most of the day with his uncle in his shop He walked around for a while and did not find any strange people or objects Luo Jian was rather trusting of his intuition Although he had not experienced a great number of battles, people who had experienced life and death always had incredible te innate characteristics that allowed theh they could not tell what exactly the feeling was
Nothing happened in the , but in the afternoon, Luo Jian noticed some abnormalities that no one else had discovered He found that so on his uncle, or to be exact, on his uncle’s shop, and that the person was rather good at hiding Although Luo Jian felt so watched, Luo Jian could not determine the specific location of the other party or find them
But Luo Jian was not particularly worried because he could not feeltheood to be constantly watched in this way Luo Jian thought about it and decided to catch the person that was secretlyto his uncle and left his uncle’s shop alone Then, he walked straight down along the street At first, he still felt so quite a distance fro vanished
Subsequently, Luo Jian hopped on a bus and took a trip around the town After riding around, he went back near his uncle’s shop again He found a public bench on the side of the road and sat down He held a book—he did not reht it fro it, but he was actually observing secretly
After sitting on the bench for about half an hour, Luo Jian silently counted and found four suspicious targets There was a restaurant directly opposite his uncle’s shop, and there was anear the door the entire time The man looked toward his uncle’s door fro hi about whether to buy a pack of cigarettes from his uncle’s shop
Of course, this was just his speculation
The second suspect was a young wo the street Luo Jian saw that she had inter around, from here to there, several ti back and forth while waiting for someone
The third one was a little boy with an ue of eleven or twelve, and he stood under the traffic light on the street corner and stared incessantly at his uncle’s shopfront Generally speaking, Luo Jian’s vigilance toward the child should have been the lowest, but the child’s eyes looked a little strange Also, the strangest thing about the child was that he was carrying an umbrella around on such a sunny day, so Luo Jian divided his attention to pay heed to him
The fourth one was the most suspicious because Luo Jian seemed to have seen him before His back vieas very fae as Luo Jian He kept his head lowered and even wore a hoodie He carried a big guitar bag and sat on a public bench by the side of the road like Luo Jian Although he did not glance at his uncle’s shop door from time to time, he always remained seated there, motionless
After a short ht that it was not possible to solve the proble it out this way, so he stood up and walked toward the
The ive any response He still kept his head down The hood of his top ide and covered half of his face As a whole, the man appeared to be very staid Only when Luo Jian caive a little reaction—he raised his head slightly
However, he merely raised it a little, so Luo Jian still could not see his face completely All he could see was his thin lips and chin His face’s outline was as sharp as a knife
“What’s theTo Luo Jian’s surprise, the voice sounded fa”
“Sure, go ahead”
Luo Jian thought about it for a longon the shop on the corner of the street?”
The man seemed to smile, and his mouth curved: “Why would I want to spy on that shop?”
Luo Jian was unconsciously relieved and replied: “Then, I’m sorry I , he turned to leave, but just as he took a step forward, the man behind him voiced out, just as Luo Jian had expected: “You actually believed what I said that easily?”
Luo Jian paused, took a deep breath, and turned his head to look at him “So tell me, who are you actually?”
“Who am I?” The man shook his head “I don’t know”
“What do you mean? I don’t understand,” Luo Jian frowned
“Looking at you, you are probably one of those secret cha
Luo Jian was ihtened by him and hesitated for a while “How can you tell?”
“Because you can see me”
“Ah?” Luo Jian was even more surprised by what he said and asked, “Can’t anyone else see you?”
