Chapter 373
Could he be hunting tomb raiders?
Thinking this, Old Perry regained his composure and said, “You’re thinking too much. I’ve been perfectly fine these
past few days.” With that, the old man departed hurriedly without even asking who Nash was.
Seeing how Nash had figured out the old man’s background, Xeno could not help but ask, “Mr. Nash, how did you
figure that out?”
Nash raised his teacup and took a sip, smiling faintly. “I used my eyes, of course.”
Xeno was speechless.

hand.
Yasmin smiled and replied, “We were talking about Old Perry.”
“Did he say anything?” Margaret inquired.
“Nothing much. He came to look for a rat,” Yasmin explained briefly.
Margaret nodded. “You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’ll go make some food for you.”
“Mom, we already ate!” Yasmin replied quickly. She then took the meat from her mother’s hand and urged, “You sit
down and chat with Mr. Calcraft. I’ll go prepare your meal!”
She had already eaten, but her mother probably still had not.
“I’m not hungry yet. Go and get that thing for Mr. Young first,” Margaret said, looking at the ring in Nash’s hand.
Yasmin put the pork in the refrigerator and then went to retrieve the map piece from the bedroom.
Nash asked, “Mrs. Judd, have you ever resided at the Young family’s residence?” Margaret should have been quite
young when the massacre happened. Since the Young family had trusted Caleb, they might have accepted his
family as well.
“I’ve never been to the Young family’s residence. I’ve only ever been with my uncle ever since I can remember. My
father used to send money to my uncle every month. It wasn’t until I got married that my father told me a little bit
about the Young family, but still, it wasn’t much,” Margaret replied while sitting on a nearby stool.
“What about that man, Perry? How was his relationship with your father??” Nash suspected Old Perry might also be
connected to the Young family. It was worth noting that the Young family’s ancestors had been tomb raiders.
“My father settled here. Old Perry’s family moved here during his second year. It was my father who invited them

“Is Old Perry involved in tomb raiding?” Nash asked with a smile.
“Well, I don’t think so. Old Perry is a geomancy master. I’ve never heard of him being involved in tomb raiding,”
Margaret said in surprise.
Yasmin walked out with a small jewelry box. She opened it and took out a small plece of parchment before handing
it to Nash. “This is the heirloom my grandfather left me.”
Nash accepted the parchment. He glanced at it and confirmed that it did indeed come from the same map that the
two pieces he had made.
Margaret asked carefully, “Mr. Young, are you planning on avenging the Young family?”
Nash’s voice was low as he replied, “This blood feud runs deep. I can’t allow those who wronged my family to exist
under the same sky. I’d be letting my family down if I don’t avenge them.”
