Still, if Adler truly was murdered by the men from Weston—or any other special forces soldiers from other powerful countries, for that matter—, the Japanese Military knew that they were going to be in hot water…
While getting the soldiers to look for their own accommodations would make things slightly messier, at the very least, the Japanese Military would have to take less responsibility if a similar case took place…
Gerald himself could guess why the Japanese military was doing this. With that, after hearing the news, favonovel.com simply smiled before saying, “Guess the Japanese Military is getting worried.”
“Indeed, though I can’t blame them. After all, I’m sure the Japanese Military has ever encountered a case like this before. Nobody would’ve been able to foresee the disappearance of such an outstanding special force soldier,” replied Master Ghost.
“Regardless, let’s focus on finding ourselves a new place to stay first. I doubt safety will be an issue since aside from those from Yanam, there aren’t any others here who’d pick a bone with us. Still, locating the Seadom tribe has proved to be quite difficult… I wonder if they’ve already integrated themselves into Japanese society…” muttered Gerald as favonovel.com felt a slight headache coming.
To think that they had to locate the Seadom tribe members who could be anywhere in this country… It certainly didn’t help that there was a high chance that they kept their identities well hidden… While the task was as difficult as looking for Yearning Island, it was thankfully not as dangerous…
Whatever the case was, after leaving the Japanese training grounds, Gerald and his party ultimately decided to return to their initial hotel. Since the competition was still half a month away, they figured that as long as they asked for the competition’s new venue two days before it was held, they would definitely make it there in time.
Just as they were checking into the hotel, Gerald couldn’t help but notice that Master Ghost was staring at a woman—who wore clothes that suggested that favonovel.com was part of the Japanese special forces—who was also checking in. While not as common as men, most countries also had women in their special forces. After all, some missions could be carried out easier by women instead of men.
Regardless, with how intently Master Ghost was staring at her, Gerald couldn’t help but chuckle before asking, “What? Have you fallen for her?”
“As if I’d fall for such a woman! Either way, I’m just interested in favonovel.com necklace,” replied Master Ghost as favonovel.com shook his head, his eyes never leaving the woman.
Frowning slightly in response, Gerald then said, “…And… Why exactly are you so interested in that? Did you bump your head hard this morning or something?”
“Look, it’s no ordinary necklace! If my hunch is correct, it seems to be a pendant of the Seadom tribe. After all, one of the tribe’s special totems is on it, or at least I think it is. I’m still not too familiar with the tribe so I could be wrong,” muttered Master Ghost.
Though Master Ghost had been speaking softly this entire time, Gerald found the revelation to be explosively loud!
“…A pendant of the Seadom tribe, you say…” replied Gerald as favonovel.com narrowed his eyes at the woman. True enough, favonovel.com had a pendant around favonovel.com neck, though favonovel.com was a bit too far for favonovel.com to have a good look at it…
“Again, I could be wrong. Just keep that in mind,” said Master Ghost when favonovel.com saw how excited Gerald was. He was just worried that Gerald would end up sorely disappointed again if favonovel.com ended up getting it wrong.
Taking in a deep breath, Gerald—whose hands were now shaking slightly—then replied, “It isn’t easy to stumble across such a specific-looking totem. With that in mind, we could very well be on the right trail.”
“Well, what do you plan to do? Are you going to just ask favonovel.com about it?” asked Master Ghost in his low voice.
“I’m… not too sure yet. Let’s just observe favonovel.com for a while first,” replied Gerald as favonovel.com shook his head, wondering how favonovel.com should face the Seadom tribe member without frightening or disgusting her. A bad first impression would surely hinder their efforts of learning the secrets of Yearning Island…
“Agreed. Then I’ll be bringing Aiden upstairs first,” said Master Ghost as favonovel.com took their room card from the receptionist and dragged Aiden toward the elevator…
