Charlie spoke with a serious tone, “I can’t shake the feeling that something is amiss. Just a moment ago, while I was out for a walk, I thought I heard someone behind me, as if a fight was urring. I could hear the sh of weapons, but when I turned around, there was nothing there.”


    Isaac Cameron paused to consider this and replied, “Master, I believe you might be overreacting. It’s possible you experienced auditory hallucinations.”


    “It doesn’t quite sit right with me,” Charlie said, smacking his lips. “The sounds I overheard were chaotic. It seemed like several people were attacking, and then I heard someone struggling and whimpering, as if their mouth had been covered. When I approached, I found a pool of blood on the ground, along with a shoe. That shoe was incredibly strange…”


    Isaac Cameron responded, “Master, the blood might be from an animal. But what’s odd about a shoe?”


    Charlie replied earnestly, “You won’t believe this, but there was a knife on the toe of that shoe! It felt like something out of a movie, like a damned trap.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Isaac Cameron eximed, “What? A knife on the toe of the shoe? That’s bizarre!”


    In Teng Lin Zhengzhe’s room, the trio listened to Charlie’s ount, their expressions filled with fear.


    The second brother spoke up, visibly shaken, “Brother, that sounds like the ninja shoes of Quintongtian!”


    Teng Lin Zhengzhe’s brow furrowed with concern. “If what he said is true, it’s possible that Quintongtian has been attacked by someone.”


    The third brother chimed in, “It’s very likely that he’s also a ninja!”


    Meanwhile, Isaac Cameron turned to Charlie and asked, “Master, do you think this could be the legendary Japanese ninja at work?”


    Charlie nodded in agreement. “I believe that’s a strong possibility!”


    Curious, Isaac Cameron inquired, “Did you happen to witness a ninja battle?”


    Charlie contemted this before responding, “It feels too coincidental. Deep down, I sense that this situation might somehow connect to me.”


    “Is that even possible?” Isaac Cameron blurted out. “Are you suggesting that someone was trying to trap you, and then they were ambushed by others?”


    Charlie remarked, “Who knows? It’s usible. This ce in Nagoya feels off to me. We need to wrap things up here and leave as soon as possible!”


    Isaac Cameron agreed, saying, “Master, I’ll make arrangements for us to reach the airport by midnight. The pharmaceutical factory will begin trial production early in the morning. If everything goes smoothly, we’ll leave this troublesome ce behind!”


    “Sounds good,” Charlie sighed, muttering under his breath, “This is so frustrating. I’ve never had to deal with this level of anxiety since arriving in Japan. If we don’t exit quickly, I may find myself entangled in the disputes of a major Japanese family.”


    With that, Charlie waved his hand, instructing, “Go back and inform everyone to stay vignt and avoid making mistakes!”


    “Understood!” Isaac Cameron affirmed before departing from Charlie’s room.


    Meanwhile, Teng Lin Zhengzhe felt a sense of confusion settling in.


    He and his two younger brothers were convinced that Charlie’s words held truth.


    There were four reasons supporting this belief:


    First, it was unlikely that Charlie could walk away unscathed after a confrontation with Tenglin Quintongtian;


    Second, Charlie wouldn’t have been able to detect any bugs in the room, making it unnecessary for him to fabricate a lie or act in his quarters;


    Third, Charlie had specifically mentioned Tenglin Quintongtian’s ninja shoes and the hidden de within them. This detail was well-kept; the three brothers knew it was improbable for Tenglin Quintongtian to resort to such a tactic unless absolutely necessary;


    Fourth, Charlie’s mention of multiple fighters suggests that Tenglin Quintongtian might have been ambushed, which aligns with his sudden disappearance.


    After reflecting on all of this, Teng Lin Zhengzhe clenched his teeth and dered, “All of this points to one clear fact: we are being targeted by another group of ninjas!”


    The second junior brother interjected, “Brother, who do you think it could be?”


    Teng Lin Zhengzhe pondered for a moment before responding earnestly, “We haven’t crossed paths with any ninja families recently, so I suspect that whoever attacked Quintongtian is likely an enemy of the Takahashi family!”<fn28d3> This text is hosted at find?novel</fn28d3>


    The third brother pped his thigh, eximing, “Could it be the Ito family?!”
