“Su Mo, I’ve already instructed my people to prepare dinner. Hurry up… Hey, what’s on your mind?”
Feng Mengyue opened the door with a beaming expression, but as soon as she opened the door and finished speaking, she saw Su Mo sitting beside the bed with a contemplative expression.
His brows furrowed, and his eyes were without focus.
Apparently, he was deep in thought while she was speaking, so he could not react in time.
Seconds later, after seeing the rightful owner returning to her room, Su Mo immediately returned to his senses. He stood up and immediately made his request without hesitation.
Feng Mengyue wore a strange look on her face after she heard that he wanted one of the items in the pile of junk under the bed.
“Sure, why not? Most of the things in the room are things we brought back from the outside or sundries that we occasionally obtained. We haven’t found a use for some of them while some are broken, and no one has the skills to fix them. I didn’t have a place to store them, so I just left them piled up here for now.
“As for what’s under this bed, they’re all random gadgets that Guan Shan usually picks up, and they’re not worth much. You can just take whatever you want. You really don’t have to be so polite with me.”
Hearing that Feng Mengyue did not mind, Su Mo no longer hesitated. He immediately leaned over and tugged at the pile of junk.
He took out the small golden disc and pulled out a golden rope that seemed to come from the same source.
After he took them out, he squeezed them in his palm and put away his thoughts.
“Why? Is there something wrong with these two items?”
There were 30 to 40 large items in the room and an even larger quantity of smaller items.
Including everything, at least hundreds of objects like the small golden disc were scattered in the room.
Feng Mengyue paused. She had never seen these things before, and looking at Su Mo’s cautious expression, she could not help but become curious.
“No, it just happened to look like something I’ve seen before. Take a look at the pattern on it. It seems to represent something.
“Unfortunately, we can’t decipher it yet!”
While speaking, Su Mo’s attention seemed to be on the disc, but his gaze had already drifted to the side and summoned the system analysis in his heart.
Unfortunately, even with Feng Mengyue’s permission to have the item, the system still identified the item’s ownership as someone else and could not process the analysis.
“Oh?
“Guan Shan always likes to collect these bizarre things. Speaking of this pattern, I remember that the pendant he wears seems to have an identical pattern to this.
“Could it be that there is a deeper meaning to it?”
Feng Mengyue observed the pattern for a while and felt that it was familiar.
Fortunately, she had an excellent memory, and she immediately thought of the pendant on Guan Shan’s neck after seeing the pattern on the disc.
“What?! Does he have another thing like this?”
Upon closer inspection, it was not difficult to find that this small golden disc was very similar to the outermost circle of the entire old-fashioned pocket watch.
Su Mo was shocked to learn that Guan Shan had other similar accessories on hand.
The relationship between these accessories and real pocket watches remained a mystery that needed to be investigated according to the clues they found.
However, putting all the components together and restoring it to its original appearances or simply taking ownership of the item after finding Guan Shan could possibly give him the authority to check its true attributes.
‘The Divulgence of Heaven’s Secret is already so mysterious. It gave me the ability to time travel to the next disaster. What would happen if I acquired the complete pocket watch…”
A glimmer of hope rose in his heart, and after thinking for a while, Su Mo suppressed the desire in his heart.
‘This thing is significant to me, so I won’t be holding back.
‘I strongly feel that Guan Shan might not be dead yet. We have to find him!’
Certain conditions needed to be met to run a system analysis on territories, buildings, large items, and other things regardless of whether the owner was dead or alive.
However, it was different for these small items.
The ownership would be gone if the rightful owner was dead.
However, Su Mo could not use the system analysis, which meant that although Guan Shan’s whereabouts were currently unknown, he was surely still alive.
Meanwhile, Feng Mengyue was delighted to hear that Su Mo was determined to find Guan Shan just because of this small item.
Previously, she struggled to form a plan to get Su Mo to help search the interior of the Great Mountains so that she could investigate Guan Shan’s whereabouts.
Now that Su Mo had taken the initiative to suggest it, she had omitted the expected process of trying to convince him.
This was considered a pleasant situation for both the host and guest!
