Before Mo Shisan could finish speaking, he was slapped into the muck with a sword scabbard. Qi Huan, his face grim, shook open the Criminal Law Records. "The list of stolen items reported by the Mechanical Hall includes seventeen Thousand Machine Gears, which perfectly matches the debris left in the ruins."
"You, Qi! Don't you dare try to pin this on the Mechanical Hall! Back then, this Thousand Mechanism Disc was handled by the Foreign Affairs Hall..."
At that, Mo Shisan abruptly fell silent. His gaze shifted to the damaged Thousand Mechanism Disc held by a Night Patrol Disciple from the Hidden Blade Pavilion, and a flicker of hesitation appeared in his eyes.
Finally, without another word, he turned and left.
This was becoming a headache for Qi Huan as well. The matter was too tangled, and with their status, it was impossible to pursue the investigation any further.
"Looks like the Celestial Craft Cave is too big. There are bad apples in every organization."
