'Could he have killed someone just to find that thing?!'

Everyone's eyes widened in an instant, watching as the knife was about to plunge viciously into the Maid's frail body.
Suddenly—
"Wait!"
A clear, cold, and pleasant female voice rang out, instantly shattering the suffocatingly tense atmosphere.
The speaker was none other than Lady Yu Xiang. Her right hand was raised high, holding something. Her stunningly beautiful and strikingly bright almond-shaped eyes were fixed on the crazed man as she called out, "Is this the thing you're looking for?"
