So it should indeed be that they just happened to lose money, and I coincidentally went out. The Aura effect of the Guardian Spirit also perfectly played its role, without any other factors being involved in the process.

But then again, with the privacy protection of the damn system, it should be impossible for anyone to directly suspect and immediately find me here… Probably wouldn't use such a strange trick to test me either.

He sighed and also felt that he was being a bit paranoid, but it was unavoidable. As his whole being started becoming increasingly special, he naturally became more sensitive in this regard, just as he recently always wanted to confirm the specifics of the real world.

Although for now, the reality side seems like a dimension without miracles, without magic, he still doesn't dare to say that he has completely confirmed it. He's always worried that if there's the existence of some special situation, maybe he just hasn't encountered the hidden side of the world and has been wandering in the surface world...

—Before I can completely determine that it's all about me alone, probably can't avoid the emergence of such a mindset.

That was the case just now, the first time encountering such a thing, the Guardian Spirit wouldn't explain to him that it was the result of its Aura effect. And that sort of coincidence, as if manipulated by some Power, naturally made Gu Mo suspicious, instinctively guessing in that direction.

He gently exhaled, raised the few red bills in his hand, and waved them to signal to the girls who were looking over from across the street.

"It should be around here somewhere, turn on your phone light and take a look..."

"Can't find it... sob, surely someone picked it up..."

"Don't be discouraged, let's keep looking, and maybe a kind person picked it up and will return it to us."

The three girls, holding their phones, were shining lights everywhere under the greenery beside this side of the sidewalk, talking to each other either dejectedly or seriously encouraging, their eyes were constantly scanning, not missing any suspicious corner around them.

They walked past Gu Mo just like that.

Their sight swept over Gu Mo, and as they walked past him, they even slightly detoured as if subconsciously aware of his presence, but consciously ignored him even when he was right in front of them.

"..."

"..."

Almost forgot this bit.

Gu Mo blinked, turned around to look back, and as the girls were about to continue searching, he lightly coughed and said, "Excuse me, ladies..."

By making a sound and attracting attention, his presence suddenly broke a certain subtle state, becoming noticeable. Especially for the few girls, it felt like a voice abruptly appeared at a very close distance behind them, catching them off guard.

Not so much as being very close, it's just that they were still looking around and hadn't found their target, meanwhile, they instinctively formed an impression in their minds, that is—there was no one around them, making the night sidewalk feel empty and silent.

Their impression and reality conflicted, as if suddenly someone jumped out, giving them a fright.

"Ah—!"

"What are you doing! You this person..."

The three girls, like startled rabbits, suddenly leapt forward several steps, and only dared to look back after widening the distance, their tone full of anger and annoyance.

"As you can see, I'm a street magician, and this is my partner..."

Gu Mo remained unfazed, speaking in a light and natural tone, gesturing in the empty air beside him, with his words and gestures along with a meaningful gaze, quickly giving a simple suggestion to the three girls within his line of sight.

"..."

"..."

The air quieted down a bit at this moment.

"Street magic... Are you filming a show?"

The girl who lost her money initially looked fierce, but after seeing Gu Mo, her heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and a blush instantly appeared on her cheeks. Her tone unconsciously softened, while feeling very regretful for her earlier brusque tone.

The other two companions weren't much better, they looked at the young man opposite, then couldn't help but look around, discovering a girl standing by the dimly lit roadside, calmly holding a DV camera, seemingly filming the scene before them, as if they really were filming a show segment.

"Yes, we're filming material... If possible, could you please cooperate a little?"

Gu Mo said with a smiling face, reaching out to show the five bills in his hand to the other side. He detected the slow depletion of his Spiritual Power and knew that the Technique of the Artificial Demon Eye had taken effect, and seeing the reactions of the girls confirmed it further.

An excellent start, even though it was a very low-level Artificial Demon Eye, nothing compared to the inherent Demon Eye, which has various powerful, heaven-defying Effects.

However, for him at this current stage, it was still very useful and could be considered highly cost-effective—

Turning the passive function of receiving outside information into an active Power to influence external matters. In other words, all targets within his line of sight would be affected by the Magic, and being seen by the Demon Eye means falling directly into the Effect of the Technique.
