Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Little Guy Crashed into the Palm of the Hand Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Little Guy Crashed into the Palm of the Hand Samuel Chalmers’s hand holding the phone trembled slightly. His dark eyes lowered for a moment as he emotionlessly looked at the small ginseng doll in his palm. The little ginseng doll didn’t mind his cold demeanor one bit, its tiny green bean-like eyes staring fixedly at him, and its little face vaguely carried a fawning smile. Then, while smiling, it rolled over in his palm. Samuel’s temple twitched slightly. Finally confirming that this was indeed the one he had seen a couple of days ago. So... Samuel raised his head indifferently, just in time to see someone running over from a short distance and stopping the car. Heh, he knew it. Holding the little thing in his hand, Samuel got out of the car. Scarlett Jennings almost instantly followed the blinding golden light. Upon closer look, huh! The little baby spirit from her family was rolling in the man’s hand. Scarlett was a bit amazed, this little guy had bumped into the big shot once or twice, and seemed not the slightest worried about being dispelled by the golden light on him. Not only unworried, but it even seemed to enjoy it a bit? What the hell? “Miss Jennings, aren’t you going to take back your family’s thing?” Samuel saw her looking for a while without any intention of reaching out to take it back, reminding her with some mental discomfort, deliberately emphasizing “your family’s.” Scarlett finally reacted, hurriedly reaching out to snatch the little guy back from his palm. Perhaps moving too quickly, the back of Scarlett’s hand inadvertently brushed against the other party’s palm. Samuel only felt a slight itch in his palm, and before he had time to grow uncomfortable, the feeling left as quickly as it came. Scarlett didn’t seem to notice, directly grabbing the little guy still kicking its tiny legs, and took out a red string intending to tie it up. Samuel watched her actions, suddenly thinking of something he saw in Donovan’s photo earlier. His phoenix eyes subconsciously followed her movements to her left palm. Unfortunately, due to the dim light by the roadside and Scarlett moving quickly, Samuel didn’t manage to see it clearly before she had tied up the little thing again. “Sorry, I was just about to send it away, somehow it suddenly ran off.” Logically, after their obsessions were removed, the shadow spirit would only concern themselves with reincarnation. But this little radish apparently came for the golden light on the big shot. Scarlett regarded the nearly dazzling golden light in front of her, feeling more and more that this thing was unusual. Hmm, she wanted to sneak a grab. Just as Scarlett was contemplating in her mind and before she had time to act, she heard Samuel suddenly speak, showing a rare curiosity, “Send it away?” Scarlett had to restrain her movements, explaining, “The resentful energy on it has all been eliminated by you, without the obsession of resentment, a ghost messenger could guide it into reincarnation.” Although Samuel had accepted the existence of the shadow soul, hearing her mention it so casually still felt a bit strange in his heart. Unable to resist asking again, “How to guide it?” Scarlett opened her mouth, just about to speak, when she suddenly pointed behind him. “Huh?” Samuel turned around, just in time to see a young man in black clothes and black pants standing not far away, topped with a black hat and black mask, clearly under the streetlight, yet not very noticeable. The driver standing on the other side clearly saw the person who suddenly appeared too, and felt his heart skip a beat. The security at Silver River No. 1 was top-notch in Sea City, someone dressed so suspiciously shouldn’t logically be able to get in. But seeing Miss Jennings’s expression, it seemed she knew the other party. The guy in the black hat walked up to Scarlett and spoke very formally, “Spiritual affairs express delivery, do you have a shadow spirit needing underworld guidance?” Samuel: ... He instinctively looked toward Scarlett. So even the ghost messengers of the underworld are modernized now? Scarlett was also a bit surprised, “When did spiritual affairs open a guide service? How come I didn’t know?” The guy in the black hat said, “It’s a new cooperative project between the boss and the underworld, today’s the first trial.” Scarlett immediately understood, though curious about the connections behind the spiritual affairs boss, she didn’t ask further. She extended the little baby spirit in her hand. The guy in the black hat took out a miniature scale tray, placed the little baby spirit on it. The scale tray showed 9 grams. The guy in the black hat seemed to frown slightly, “This shadow spirit doesn’t weigh enough.” Saying that, he lifted up the little baby spirit and took a look, then said coldly, “This is an unformed half soul, the underworld currently can’t accept it.” Scarlett was not surprised by this, clearly having known beforehand. “It’s indeed an unformed baby spirit, born of resentful energy, but its resentful energy is cleared, just needs a few years of nurturing in the underworld to form, take it back for now, in a few years it’ll be just in line...” The guy in the black hat bluntly refused, “No, the underworld is currently overloaded, and there’s a rule in the cooperation agreement with the boss, non-guide entities cannot be admitted into the underworld!” Saying this, the guy put the little baby spirit back into Scarlett’s hand, “Sorry, this pick-up failed.” With that, he turned to leave. Scarlett was momentarily stunned, “No, wait a minute, can’t this be worked out?! I’ll pay more!” The guy in the black hat was unmoved, “Sorry.” With that, he turned and left without hesitation. Scarlett watched as the figure quickly melted into the darkness, feeling a bit dejected. Previously ghost messengers weren’t this hard to negotiate with. Even if a shadow spirit was incomplete, slipping them some joss paper would let it go through. What’s this now? Was it stuck with her now? Scarlett looked down, eyeing the innocent-looking little baby spirit in her hand, her mouth twitching. Samuel remained silent, observing from the side. Though it seemed fantastical, he understood the so-called spiritual affairs express delivery. After all, companies have rules and they can’t just be changed willy-nilly. From this perspective, the boss seemed to understand enterprise management. He turned his head, seeing Scarlett wearing a face of deep worry, it seemed this was the first time he’d seen this expression on the Jennings family’s eldest daughter. Secretly raising an eyebrow, he uncharacteristically showed concern, “What to do with this baby spirit if it can’t be sent?” Scarlett pursed her lips, somewhat gloomily, “If it can’t be sent, I’ll have to raise this little radish myself.” Let it mature, then send it over. Though it wasn’t particularly difficult, Scarlett had no interest in raising ghosts. She had seen many people raising ghosts since stepping into this field, but she always felt it wasn’t orthodox, not to mention she was from a talisman family. As she thought about it, though the ghost messenger refused to take it, she had no other solutions for now. Feeling a bit depressed, she tucked the little baby spirit back into her pocket, refusing the little thing’s intent to rub against the big shot’s golden light. Samuel watched her actions, his dark eyes deepening, and as she turned, he suddenly called her back. “You mentioned before, the mark in my palm, what is it?” Scarlett was caught off guard by his question, blinking for a moment before explaining earnestly, “A protective mark, why?” “Nothing.” Samuel’s voice was cool, seemingly unintentional. Seeing his lack of special reaction, Scarlett said no more, swiftly walking back to the Jennings Family’s villa. Samuel watched her fast-retreating figure, his eyes dark and indistinct, ultimately turning into a cold smile again. Trying to deceive him again.
