My Virtual Girlfriend Is Actually a Lady From the Richest Family
Chapter 37: Tracking

Mery explained everything briefly, but it was enough to make David understand how the region called Southeast Asia works.

It was a region that had a lot of resources, but unfortunately could not be said to be prosperous.

The inability to manage their own resources was a major factor.

David had nothing more to say.

He then stared at the university building, curious as to which area Chu Feng was in now.

"What are you looking for, why are you staring there?" asked Mery not long after.

She clearly realized that David was making careful observations.

"There is someone who targeted Jane from the start, and he should be a Spiritual Being," David replied.

"What did Miss Jane say about him?" asked Mery again.

"I guess Jane doesn't really care so far." David explained.

Jane never talked about Chu Feng, it even looked like she did not think about him.

"If Miss Jane doesn't care, you probably don't need to worry," Mery said.

"Why? Does that mean he's not threatening?"

"No, every enemy is a threat, that's the philosophy of every elite family. Their children are taught to always be vigilant. As long as they are not stupid, they will never underestimate the enemy. Miss Jane is a very smart woman, of course. However, her actions tend to always go unnoticed so we may not understand. Miss Erza once told me that Miss Jane will surprise us when she doesn't seem to care."

"Is it like that?" David felt he had learned something new about Jane.

He held his chin with a brooding expression.

"I think this is enough," Mery said, then walked over to get the hose that connected the tanks of the two cars.

After that, she closed each one and threw the hose into the Mercedez she was carrying.

"By the way, do you want to keep an eye on that guy? I can help you," Mery said.

After she said that, she suddenly waved her hand.

From her hand, David saw a darkness that looked like shadows gathering.

"What is this?" asked David, narrowing his eyes as he felt that the darkness was very unique even among spiritual forces although he had not seen many spiritual forces.

"I have the power of shadows, so I am very skilled at hiding, and of course, killing," replied Mery, curling her lips slightly.

A woman is always proud when talking about their strengths.

"It seems that you are not uncommon among Spiritual Beings," David said, getting out of the car.

"Far from ordinary," Mery replied.

When praised, she seemed to like to boast.

This is very different from the impression she gives where she seems indifferent at first glance, even after she starts talking.

However, David does not look down on her personality.

Everyone has their own life experiences that make them who they are today.

"Then what about me, can your shadow also hide me?" David asked.

"Obviously, go into it!" replied Mery.

When she moved her hand again, the darkness in her hand suddenly formed a shadowy human figure, similar to David at a glance, at least the height and body shape were exactly the same as David's body.

With a curious expression, David tried to enter the shadowy figure.

Even seen with eyes that seemed extremely translucent, David wondered if he wouldn't penetrate it.

However, he found that he could actually enter it.

When inside it, it seemed like he was inside a fully enclosed costume.

"Now you can merge with the wall or floor, just control the shadow with your mind," Mery said.

David immediately followed her instructions.

Sure enough, the shadow suddenly merged with the street below, like a normal human shadow.

This gave David no sense of difficulty except in seeing the world.

He felt he was seeing the world from deep underground through the hole.

At the same time, he saw Mery turn into a shadow directly, without any particular process like he did.

"How do you feel?" asked Mery.

"As long as we are close together, we can communicate directly. Our voices will not be heard outside." He explained.

"Can the enemy detect us if we get too close to the enemy?" David asked, wanting to know more.

"Yes, we need to keep our distance, and most importantly, not let the enemy see us directly."

"Mmm, I understand now, let's move."

David moved the shadow using his mind.

It moved slowly on the road and became faster with time.

Apparently through the shadow, David can move faster than running.

He and Mery passed through the university grounds in no time.

"Let's go through the window," Mery said suddenly and moved towards the open window.

She thought it might not be so safe to go through the entrance of the building.

David followed her without saying anything. Here, he left it to her to take the lead.

With her life experience, she might also be able to track down Chu Feng.

After entering that window, they arrived at the extracurricular music room.

It was full of various musical instruments, but there were no people.

David and Mery went straight through the gap under the door which was very easy for them to pass through.

However, after passing through the gap, Mery chose to stop.

"By the way, do you know where the least used staircase is?" she asked David.

"I don't think I know because I've only been at this university for one day," David replied.

Not to mention the least used staircase, he hadn't even memorized the structure of this building.

Mery was silent after hearing his answer, looking like she was starting to think.

After that, she said, "let's go to one of the back corners of this building. Usually the least used staircase is there, either on the left or right side. I hope the footprints on the stairs are still there."

She started moving again. If it was just the back corner she was aiming for, it wasn't so difficult as the path was quite clear.

David continued to follow her from the side, learning more from her experience.

If he were to try to track Chu Feng himself, he would probably move randomly, unlike Mery who could estimate the route Chu Feng might take.
