Chapter 352: Master Tam Alive?

Jared was stunned. Tina's master? Wasn't he dead? After a moment, his eyes narrowed, and he picked up his phone to call Dexter. He had saved Dexter's number when he last investigated Tina's brothers. As soon as the call connected, Jared said, "Tina said she saw your master. Go find him!" He instantly understood what Tina meant. Although she didn't explicitly ask Dexter to search for him, Jared knew the girl wanted to find her master.

On the other end of the line, Dexter paused before quickly responding, "Got it." After hanging up, Dexter sent a message in their group chat: "Everyone assemble. Serena saw the master. Search within Ashbury!" The group chat exploded with messages.

James: "Is that old guy back from the dead?"

Damian: "I just killed a white mouse and my eyes are blurry. Are you sure Serena saw the master?"

Liam: "I get it now. That old guy is playing us! He didn't commit suicide by poisoning himself; he was testing his latest fake death drug and then disappeared!"

Hayden: "That heartless old man! I cried so much when I heard he died! Master, give me back my tears!"

Messages flooded in one after another.

Dexter was speechless: "Stop talking and start searching! Serena didn't call us herself; the old man must have run away."

Hayden immediately got excited: "Right! We can't let him escape. We must catch him and get an explanation!"

The nine of them sprang into action, working together to search for him.

At the art gallery, Jared called Nathan Lehman to help Dexter with the search. Tina ran too fast; by the time Jared finished notifying everyone, she had already disappeared. He decided to wait there. About an hour later, Tina returned with a cold expression on her face. Jared asked, "Couldn't catch up?"

Tina shook her head, looking frustrated. "For someone his age, he's surprisingly fit!" She prided herself on her tracking skills but found them useless against her master. She chased him through several streets before he vanished right in front of her eyes.

Jared looked at her and asked, "You always knew he wasn't dead?"
