Chapter 112: Whispers of Midnight Shadows

Within the Xiao family's house, tranquility permeated the air, accompanied by the soft rustling emanating from a bedroom. 

The gentle sound of plastic bags brushing against each other and the subtle zipping of a backpack blended harmoniously. 

Inside the room, a tall young man named Jin was engrossed in his task. 

His vertically slit pupils focused intently as he carefully packed several bottles of water and an assortment of snacks from the grocery store, along with a towel, into his newly acquired backpack. 

As he secured the final zipper, the backpack seemed filled with all the essentials he needed. A small alcove remained, intended for magical crystals he intended to acquire.

He donned a dark, long coat with the hood pulled up, obscuring much of his face. His gaze scanned the room, and he spotted an unexpected find—a concealed backpack tucked within the depths of the wardrobe.
