Chapter 1724: Hunting for the Shadow (20)

In the dim moonlight, the cat-people woman was staring intently at the Tower of the Guardian in the distance. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info her eyesight is very poor, but she seems to be able to see the soft glow of the white crystal on the top of the Guardian Tower.

"Mom?" said Mutt in a low voice in the tone of the cat-man boy Luff.

"Oh, Luffy. Hearing the call of Mut (pretending to be Ruf), the woman of the cat-people turned to look at the young man, "Aren't you going to get up early tomorrow? Why don't you go to bed?"

"I can't sleep. Mutt found a seat on a nearby bench. At this moment, the light on the Tower of the Guardians in the distance, which Luffy's mother had been staring at, suddenly dimmed for a second. But soon, its light immediately returned to its original state, still so clear and clear, still so soft and warm.

"Is there really no problem?" Mutter couldn't help but ask, "What kind of Guardian Tower seems to be a bit unstable?If the Melson Stone is guarded by the light of the Guardian Tower, then ------"

"Don't worry, silly boy. Luffy's mother rubbed Mutter's kitten's head, "Everything will be fine." The Tower of the Guardians doesn't rely on that light to produce its effects, but the sound it makes. ＂

"Voice?"

"It's an infrasound wave that ordinary people can't hear, but the monsters can hear it. It has a nerve-soothing effect. When the monsters attack the Melson Stone with malicious intentions, the infrasound waves will dispel their negative emotions, and the monsters will obediently leave. The woman explained.

"Yes. Mutt whispered, "How does Mom know so well?" ＂

"Huhuhu, silly boy. Luffy's mother didn't answer Mutter's question directly, but just smiled indifferently.

＂...... Mom," Mutt paused, then suddenly changed his words and asked in a low voice, "Anyway, am I really an only child?

Luffy's mother also paused after hearing this, and then asked with an embarrassed smile, "Silly boy, why did you suddenly ask such a strange question?"

"No...... But...... Mutter struggled to make up excuses: "When I was away on business with Mr. Albert, I met a guy in Egypt who looked almost exactly like me. People who don't know the inside story may think that we are twins, ahahaha------"

"Yes, yes...... The expression on Luffy's mother's face was even more embarrassed: "Maybe it's just an accident, don't care." ＂

"Maybe it's a coincidence. Well, let's think so. Mutter looked at Luff's mother coldly, but Luff's mother had poor eyesight, and it was probably impossible to see the expression on Mutter's face now.

"That guy seems to be a slave of a slave owner in Egypt, and he looks like he's being tortured so badly. Mutt got up from the bench and walked into the room, muttering faintly, "Barely clothed, just a rag." I haven't eaten a meal in a long time, and I'm so hungry. And the strange smell of that guy...... Well, you'll never wonder how bad that smells. ＂

The woman didn't answer, just turned her head to look at the Tower of the Guardians in the distance, as if praying in a low voice.

"It's so uncomfortable to see someone who looks exactly like me being tortured like that. But since mom said that he was someone who had nothing to do with me, then forget it and leave him alone. Mutt walked inside: "Anyway, I guess that guy won't live this year." ＂

He deliberately walked away, but turned back to carefully observe the change in the demeanor of the woman outside the house. Mutter could see that the woman seemed to be sad, and she was half-kneeling on the ground in prayer, but nothing more.

It was hard to guess anything based on this alone, and after looking at it for a while, he immediately gave up, sighed and went back to the bedroom.

There, Albert still slept soundly, and the sound of snoring shook the room. The already small and dilapidated bedroom almost felt like it was about to collapse by the snoring.

"Hmm...... "The cat man boy is not tired at all, and it is strange that he can still sleep after listening to this kind of snoring. He leaned over to Albert and looked closely at the tiger's face with the soft white glow of the Tower of Guardians shining through the window.

The face of the white tiger can actually be described as funny, the original white coat color has pure black tiger stripes, and Albert's face is fat, and the fluffy tiger hair makes the face look even more fluffy, like an inflated balloon. Moreover, the tiger's beard was long and untidy, and a few of his beards were unnaturally curled, as if they had been burned by fire. The more closely I looked, the more Mutter felt that Albert was really a scruffy and unkempt man.

At least...... Straighten this beard, right? A strange thought suddenly popped into the cat-man boy's heart, maybe he just looked at the burnt tiger's beard very unpleasantly.

But Mutter didn't want to wake Albert up, he knew that if he woke the tiger up while it was sleeping, the guy would be whining and complaining again. Mutter tiptoed over to Albert's face, and cautiously stretched out his kitten's paw to try to pinch the tiger's beard.

But before he could do anything, something popped out of the tip of the beard. At first it was very small, but then the white shadow began to expand, taking the form of a white tiger, glowing in the darkness.

"Whoa------ "Whoa ghostly tiger growled at Mutt, as if thinking that the cat-man was trying to harm Albert, so it was hostile to the cat-man boy.

＂...... Ghost?" Mutt looked at the spirit of the white tiger in a daze, he had seen the Holy Spirit White Tiger for the first time since he met Albert.

The roar of "Whoa------ "Whoa was still incessant, and the sound was extremely low, cleverly blending with Albert's own snoring, which did not wake the young tigerman, but also served as a warning.

Mutter then shifted his ass and stepped back half a yard from the floor.

Realizing that the threat had decreased, the Holy Spirit White Tiger had also doubled in size and looked less intimidating.

"Who the hell are you?" asked Muth in a low voice, looking at Albert as he was asleep. He felt a lot of strange thoughts and memories, whether they belonged to himself or someone else, all mixed together, making the cat man's mind extremely messy.
