Seeing no useful information, Wu Heng quickened his pace and continued forward to leave.
“Uncle, Sister Beini and I are going to the tavern to listen to stories,” Xiao Xiao's voice rang out beside his ear.
“Go ahead but come back early,” Wu Heng said.
“Okay,” Xiao Xiao promised, heading to the tavern across the street with Bella, and they went straight inside.
Wu Heng also hailed a carriage and went straight back to the Island Lord's Mansion.
When they were still some distance from the Island Lord's Mansion, Wu Heng paid the fare and got off the carriage.
He took off his mask and walked a distance on foot with his skeleton attendant.
Along the way, he could see patrolling skeletons, the roofs of some buildings, and alleys, as well as skeleton sentries in hiding.
It was the most heavily defended place on the whole island.
Pushing open the courtyard door, Wu Heng walked in.
Mini, along with Robey and Annette, ran out to greet him. Seeing Wu Heng, they all smiled, “Master, have you snuck back again?”
“What do you mean sneaked back? There is nothing for me in Netalee City,” Wu Heng said.
“Is it over?”
Wu Heng wrapped his arm around Mini's shoulder as they walked into the residence, “It's over. Are you guys not happy that I'm back?”
“We're happy. We're happy whenever Master is back,” Mini continued, “Will Master be leaving again?”
“I shouldn't be. The association has assigned some tasks that can be done on the island,” Wu Heng said.
All of them entered the living room together.
The maids helped him take off his coat and hung it up.
“Master, would you like some lunch?” Mini asked next.
“Prepare lunch and also some bath water.”
“Okay.” The three maids agreed and went down to prepare, hopping along.
After a comfortable bath, he went downstairs for lunch.
He chatted with the maids for a while, then returned to the upstairs study.
Opening the door, Xiao Xiao and Bella also came back from outside.
“Uncle, it's a new Great Detective story now, about a demon hound. I've never heard it before,” Xiao Xiao floated over and said directly.
In the time that had passed, the third Great Detective story had been released.
“It's written by your aunt. There are original manuscripts in the drawer, you can read them for yourself,” Wu Heng said.
“I wouldn't do that. I want to hear others tell it to me. I hate things with lots of words the most,” Xiao Xiao said, half-lying in midair.
“Bella, how do you feel about the new Great Detective story?” Wu Heng looked over at Bella.
“The story is quite exciting. When Xiao Xiao and I got there, they were just at the middle of the story, so it didn't quite connect,” Bella answered.
“Just go out for a couple of days, and you'll catch up.”
“Yes. We'll wait for the streetlights to come out tonight, then go out for a walk, and we'll be able to hear the full story,” Bella also said.
They chatted for a few moments.
Then they each went off to take care of their own business.
Wu Heng also took out a blueprint and began to look it over.
Dusk.
A voice from downstairs called for dinner.
Wu Heng went downstairs, Andre Willow also returned from outside, and Mini and the others were already waiting in the living room.
“Master, you're back!” Andre Willow greeted with a smile.
Wu Heng nodded, sat down at the dining table, and began to eat dinner together.
After eating simply,
Wu Heng said, “Wei'er, the investigation team needs to purchase some supplies from Gold and Silver Island and transport them to Netalee City. Arrange this for me.”
Saying this, he produced a list.
Andre Willow took it and glanced at it, “I'll start preparing tomorrow.”
“No need to rush. Just prepare in three days.”
“Understood, Master.”
After dinner, the skeleton cleared all the dishes away.
Several people sat in the living room, Mini asked softly, “Master, why did the association remove you? Wasn't the murderer discovered through your investigation?”
“There must be some special arrangement,” Wu Heng replied, taking a piece of fruit that Annette had brought to his mouth, chewing and continuing, “It's good they didn't assign me; the situation inside the Yeko Kingdom is probably not that simple.”
“Why is it not simple? Tell us about it,” the maids urged, looking eager for a story.
“In Netalee City, I saw a hero, a Level 20 hero, who also went in the direction of the kingdom's main city.”
The eyes of the four maids immediately widened.
“A hero!”
Black Stone Town.
Slyther rubbed his temples and put aside the document he was holding.
Recently, a large number of refugees had fled from the north, adding to the chaos in Black Stone Town.
Moreover, the Skeleton Army was about to arrive, and rumors claiming they'd leave no survivors had many residents and nobles starting to pack up their things to leave the town.
Every day, there were skirmishes and violent incidents.
The association's squads were nearly overwhelmed.
“What is Wen Mansha doing? Why has she started to attack?”
“A woman from the underworld, just incompetent.”
Thud, thud, thud!
A knock at the door.
“Come in!”
The door opened, and four figures stood at the threshold, “Steward Slyther, I hope we're not disturbing you.”
Slyther looked up, puzzled.
Thinking it was Yuli asking her to come home, but it turned out to be several of the town's well-known nobles.
“Please, come in!” Slyther gestured for them to enter.
They walked in, sat down on the sofa to the side, and cautiously glanced at the upright figure standing next to Slyther.
Wrapped up tightly.
But according to some rumors, this was a high-level skeleton attendant.
Especially left to Slyther to ensure her safety.
“Do you have some business?” Slyther asked, looking puzzled.
A middle-aged merchant with slightly curled hair and a portly figure spoke softly, “Steward Slyther, do you know if it's true that the Skeleton Army is coming?”
With one wave of refugees after another,
It couldn't be fake.
