Chapter 182 - Travelling the Road
At first, I didn't know if I was dreaming or not … Or had he returned to reality from his dream …
After sitting on the bed for a long time, I finally realised that I was in reality.
"It's already at this point, why isn't Master getting up yet?" In a daze. Grabbing my phone from under my pillow, I look at the time and realize that it's already past 7 PM. I can't help but mumble to myself.
Didn't Master say to take a break and find the mastermind at night? But it's already past 7, why hasn't Master come looking for me yet?
Sitting on the bed, I rubbed my temples and suddenly felt a sharp pain in my head.
"Forget it--I'll go find him." Turning my head to look out the window at the darkness of the night, I muttered a few words before lifting the blanket and getting off the bed.
Since Master didn't come to find me, then I will go to him as well.
"Master? Master? Sigh … Weird, where's he? " When I knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no sound coming from the inside of Master's room, I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
If master was really sleeping in his room, he would have heard me moving around so much.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something wasn't right. I quickly went to the front desk and brought the spare key over.
However, when I opened the door and found that Master was not in the room at all, I was stunned.
Didn't they say that they would go find the mastermind together tonight? But now, where did Master go?
You left me here all alone just like that? You didn't leave a word for me before you left?
The hand holding the key could not help but tremble slightly.
"You two, get out." He quickly ran back to his room and picked up the jade pendant from the table, shouting at it.
"Do you two know where my master went?" When female ghost and the little ghost came out at the same time, I looked at them and asked.
I'm dead meat now.
"I don't know — —" After hearing my words, female ghost and the little demon looked at each other and said at the same time.
Listening to the two of them, I started to frown.
"You two, don't go back yet. First, help me find out where my master is." When I saw that female ghost and the little ghost were planning to hide inside the jade pendant again, I immediately stopped them.
There's no rush to go back after a while. The most important thing right now is to help me find Master.
Leaving me here all alone in the middle of the night and not telling me what he had done made me feel particularly anxious.
"What are you looking for? Isn't he just downstairs?" After hearing my words, female ghost rolled his eyes at me and impatiently said this to me …
Underground?
After hearing what female ghost said, I looked at him suspiciously. I didn't react for a while, and when I reacted, I immediately ran to the window, stuck my head out and looked down the stairs.
When I stuck my head out to take a look, I found that my teacher was indeed standing downstairs. I didn't know what he was doing, but my face immediately filled with black lines.
"Really." He could not help but grumble about his hand as he grabbed the jade pendant, closed the door, and rushed downstairs.
"Master!" As I ran towards the teacher's seat, I shouted.
Since I had already awoken, I didn't know whether to call out to him. In the end, he was still standing downstairs in a daze. I really didn't know what was going on in my master's mind.
"What's wrong? "Why are you in such a hurry?" After seeing me rushing over, my master finally recovered his wits and asked me this question.
Listening to my master's words, I had the urge to slap him on the head, but after thinking about it, since he is my master, I could only forcefully suppress my anger.
"When I woke up, you were gone. Am I in a hurry?" Smiling at Master, I asked him directly.
Master actually had the nerve to ask me why I was in such a hurry. He didn't even think about it, and when I woke up and found that Master had disappeared, he didn't tell me where I was going.
Furthermore, so many things have happened recently. I'm also worried and scared. What should I do if something happens to Master?
"Okay, okay – I was planning to go up and look for you, but you came down yourself. But it's good this way. It's about time now, we should go find that person." After seeing that I was truly not lightly angered, Master also knew that he was in the wrong, so he didn't continue to bother about the matter from before.
Seeing that my master had changed the topic, I tactfully decided not to pursue the matter anymore …
In any case, no matter how he thought about it, the matter was already in the past. No matter who was in the wrong, it was useless to pursue the matter.
"By the way, did you bring the jade out?" After turning around and walking a few steps, my master suddenly asked me as if he had realized something.
"I brought it out." After hearing what Master said, I hurriedly nodded my head and said this.
How could I not bring out the jade pendant when I came out? After all, I still need the help of female ghost to find the mastermind today.
"It's good that you brought it out. You can call the female ghost out now." After hearing what I said, Master looked at the jade pendant in my hand and signaled me to call female ghost out first.
However, for the first time, I started to hesitate when it came to Master's words.
"Master, isn't it a bit inappropriate to call him out in public?" Looking around, we were standing in front of the hotel. To call out the female ghost like that might not be the best timing.
When female ghost came out, the people beside him saw him, who knows what he looked like.
I don't understand why Master would say this to me in public. Did he ignore the fact that the world is afraid of ghosts?
"Don't worry, other than her, no one else will be able to see him." Hearing the worry in my voice, Master explained the situation to me.
After hearing what Master had to say, I thought for a moment. That's right, this female ghost truly had such an ability, he wanted to let go of his worries …
"You can take us there now." After seeing that I had called out female ghost, Master looked at him for a moment, then nodded at him.
