"If he was with me, why would I come looking?"
Shi Shengtian looked at Lei Zhenming, and couldn't help but feel angry in his heart:
"How dare you ask?
"If it wasn't for your recklessness, how could you have triggered the mechanical puppets?
"If not for that, how would the child be lost?
"How did you all end up here? Quickly, explain truthfully!"
Lei Zhenming immediately interjected:
"Senior, don't be angry, don't be angry.
"How could I, Old Lei, have thought that touching the statue would cause a battle to ensue?
"If I had known, even with a hundred guts, I wouldn't have dared to touch it.
"Wasn't I just trying to boost Miss Wei's courage when she was frightened by the statue?
"We were pushed back by the statue during the scuffle, accidentally triggered a mechanism, and couldn't return, so we fumbled our way here.
"But according to Senior Shi, was Mr. Shi also lost in the chaos?"
"...Hmm."
Shi Shengtian frowned deeply.
Lei Zhenming's heart skipped a beat.
