Chapter 349: Her Whereabouts
Old Mr. Kensington saw Thea Shaw guess Old Man Rhodes’ purpose instantly.
He was overjoyed, sat sipping tea quietly, leaving Old Man Rhodes to clarify the matter.
Old Master Rhodes was silent for a moment before saying, "I want to find my daughter, but I..."
can’t remember her face anymore.
Too much time has passed; he’s forgotten many things.
All he remembers is his daughter’s delicate face, her smile that brought joy, yet he never smiled back at her.
Because of his status and position, he trained his daughter with the harshest methods since childhood.
Even if she excelled, he never praised her.
Later, the deepest impression was the disappointment in her eyes before she left.
"When she went on that mission, she never returned." Talking about past events, Old Master Rhodes’ voice trembled slightly: "It’s been forty years, and I don’t know..."
if she is really still alive.
All these years, the only thing he’s clung to is the belief that she is still alive.
But now he is over ninety, despite being in relatively good health, with only minor ailments.
Everyone says he could live to be over 100.
If his daughter didn’t die, she would now be over sixty, perhaps already...
Thea Shaw asked with a smile, "How are you sure she’s still alive?"
"I don’t know." Old Master Rhodes’ tone was hesitant: "I just feel that she’s still alive."
It’s a father’s intuition.
But he doesn’t understand, if his child is really alive, why hasn’t she come back to find her father.
The investigation techniques of that era were too backward, even with the country sending people out, not a shred of information was obtained.
Thea Shaw nodded gently: "She is indeed still alive."
Upon receiving this affirmation, Old Master Rhodes’ pupils contracted sharply.
Even The Aetherium Sect has never said so decisively that his daughter is still alive.
"She’s in a very distant place. Do you have any photos of her?"
From Old Master Rhodes’ appearance, much information could be gleaned; the daughter is most likely not in the country.
"I do."
Uncertain of his intentions, he brought along the only photo of his daughter he had before coming here.
It was a photo of a very young girl, from an era when she was beautiful and unassuming, definitely not lacking in admirers.
She wore a military uniform, exuding an air of confidence and charm that couldn’t be hidden.
Thea Shaw looked at the photo and said, "The photo’s been around too long; I need some time to deduce her current situation, please wait a moment."
Old Master Rhodes certainly had no objections: "Alright."
Thea Shaw took the photo upstairs.
It’s been forty years, the face stuck in that moment; to observe the current situation requires using the Star Palace Map to deduce it, which takes some time.
He sat down; Old Mr. Kensington said, "Don’t worry, Thea Shaw is very capable, if she says your daughter is still alive, then she certainly is, Old Rhodes, can you rest assured now?"
Old Master Rhodes nodded, yet he couldn’t say exactly what he was thinking.
All he wondered was, if Luna is still alive, why hasn’t she come back to find him?
Or did something unexpected happen?
After a while, Thea Shaw came back downstairs holding the photo, "I found her, but I can only provide a rough location; you’ll need to find the exact coordinates yourselves."
She isn’t a GPS; precise location is impossible.
Still, Old Master Rhodes was deeply affected.
The person he’s been longing to find for decades was found through Thea Shaw with just a photo, revealing her general whereabouts.
