Ming is strolling through the cave when he comes upon the sight of what looked to be some sort of robbery with, Stepping with caution he'd firstly take a whiff towards the charred area though his sense of smell wasn't the greatest he was sure anything strong enough such as recent singed and smoking objects could be smelled.

*Sniff, Sniff* <Some kind of fire usage, I'm guessing.>

"And they didn't bother to remove the evidence. Interesting" thinking <Either they were in a rush, or...their just downright cocky>

Ming would rub his chin after the singed dirt from his hand dissipated as he said
