The night deepened, and the entire city seemed to be asleep, save for the sound of the watchmen making their rounds and striking their clappers.
Inside a certain courtyard in the city, a fire was still burning.
Sun Shicai wore a black outfit, his expression as gloomy as water, seemingly talking to himself, "How did that useless Lu Chi learn about this?"
Standing before him were two individuals, heads lowered, not daring to breathe too loudly.
The taller one cautiously spoke, "Could it be that there was a leak from that side?"
Sun Shicai shook his head, "Even if there was a leak from that side, Lu Chi, that waste, shouldn't have been the first to receive the information."
The shorter man asked, "Senior Brother, what do you mean?"
"Someone must be trying to use Lu Chi to get rid of me." Sun Shicai's eyes flickered with a cold light, "We must find the rat hiding in the shadows!"
