A Situation

Tim sat opposite Ning, wondering what was happening. Jasmine, on the other hand, wasn't as willing to just sit around.

"I need to keep looking," she said. "Those jewelry belonged to my mother."

"They're long gone," Ning said. "There is no point in searching for them anymore. You can only report to the authorities after getting off at the next stop."

"Will they even find her?" Tim asked with a sad look on his face. "I… I did not think that Miss Penelope could be a thief."

"Neither could I," Ning said. "Now, both of you come here. I have something to help you calm down."

Ning brought out the leather book with golden embossed lettering on it, the Book of Treasures.

Tim looked at it with a somewhat confused look. "How will this help us calm down, Sir Ning?" he asked. "Isn't this book just to—"

"It will," Ning said. "Come one, place your palm on the left page."
