By the afternoon, the national team was on its way to Tokyo.

The rules were the same. Their identities were still frozen, and since they could only buy train tickets with valid identities, they ended up taking the railway to the outskirts of Osaka in the east before taking a bus there.

Mochizuki Chihaya did follow the team on their journey. Many were still confused about why she was traveling with the team.

Mochizuki Chihaya was too lazy to explain herself. She knew that this bunch of Chinese representatives did not like her in the first place. Her job was to look after Mo Fan, making sure that he was delivering the orb to the right place.

On the bus, Mo Fan was leaning against the window, yet he was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery along the way. Zhao Manyan was sitting beside him mumbling non-stop. The guy would always grumble a lot if he had not touched a woman for a certain period. He had totally lost the imperious manner expected of a tyrannical CEO that a son of the Zhao Group should have, and was behaving like the autistic child of some close relatives in an old village.

”Did you hear what I said in the morning?” Zhao Manyan nudged Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was feeling sleepy. The nudge did wake him up, but it also annoyed him.

”As if it's something important, can you stop talking about it?” snapped Mo Fan.

”Something really feels strange, I first dreamed about the shadow we saw under the ship when we were traveling on the ocean. After that, I dreamed about a gigantic creature in the sea where the Twin Guardian Towers watch over. The creature was making a sound that can travel a long distance, similar to the sound of a dolphin,” said Zhao Manyan.

”Can you please spend some money in Tokyo and find an AV actress to satisfy your needs...” Mo Fan was just about to scold Zhao Manyan when he realized that something was not right. He immediately blurted out, ”What did you just say?”

”I said I dreamed about the shadow in the Pacific Ocean when we were flying in the sky!” said Zhao Manyan.

”The sentence after that.”

”There was a gigantic creature in the sea where the Twin Guardian Towers watch over.”

”Give me a second,” Mo Fan rose to his feet and went to the back of the bus.

The person sitting in the last row was none other than Mochizuki Chihaya. She had a confused look when she saw Mo Fan approaching her.

”Is the orb showing some reaction?” asked Mochizuki Chihaya alertedly.

”It's not about the orb, did you guys tell anyone about the creature in the ocean when the alarm went off last night?” asked Mo Fan in a serious tone.

”No. The truth is, I didn't know what happened either. The upper floor belongs to the military. Most people aren't allowed to go there, and we would never tell anyone the information that the upper floor has collected,” answered Mochizuki Chihaya.

”Then how did Zhao Manyan know about the gigantic creature in the sea?” said Mo Fan.

”He knows? That doesn't make any sense; apart from you, I didn't hear there was anyone else who trespassed on the upper floor,” said Mochizuki Chihaya.

Mo Fan went back to Zhao Manyan with a frown.

Zhao Manyan was aware that something happened when he saw Mo Fan's expression. He immediately got rid of his playfulness.

”Are you sure you were having a dream?” asked Mo Fan.

”Yes,” said Zhao Manyan, nodding sincerely.

”The truth is, there was indeed a gigantic creature in the ocean close to the Twin Guardian Towers last night,” said Mo Fan.

Zhao Manyan opened his mouth. He tried to speak, yet he was lost for words.

”What exactly is going on?” exclaimed Zhao Manyan.
