The person who came was definitely not a guest.
Because the door hit the wail with a clang. Clearly, rhe person had kicked open the door.
Lin Yan frowned and put away the money bag. The Black Tortoise Divine Armor moved and he hid himself, quietly sneaking to the front of the shop to take a look.
In the shop, other than rhe two unconscious people, there were four more people.
Two of them were the two useless Noble Realm cultivators who had been guarding the door of Old Master Qian’s residence previously. Ar this moment, their faces were bruised and swollen. One of them held his left hand with his right hand, and the other held his chest and bent over, grimacing.
The other two people were elites in pitch-black armor. They carried long sabers at their waists and looked murderous.
“This is Liang s Grocery Store. Captains, that person claimed to be from Liang s Grocery Store.”
The two iron-armored commanders looked at each other. One of them flashed and went straight to the backyard, brushing past Lin Yan, who was hiding in the dark. The other squatted in front of rhe two unconscious people and exerted force to wake them up. He began a series of questions.
From his questions, it seemed like they were here to investigate Manager Hu’s disappearance.
Lin Yan felt that he was a little unlucky. Logically speaking, it was very likely that he would attract an investigation so quickly if he did it silently. However, the truth was right in front of him. Just as he left, these people discovered that Manager Hu was missing, which was why they came so quickly.
Lin Yan had no intention of attacking. The more people he killed, the more trouble he would cause. It would be easier to attract the attention of the terrifying collective consciousness.
He might as well wait here and quietly watch the four of them search inside and out. In the end, they found nothing and left with the two unconscious unlucky people.
After the four of them left, Lin Yan strolled around the house and found some food in the kitchen. He made some simple food and ate it. Then, he washed up before going to the inner room on the second floor. He lay down and closed his eyes to sleep.
During this period of time, he had been fighting against the Gadfly King and the Divine General. Fie had not been able to rest and was already extremely tense.
At this moment, he fell asleep and immediately fell asleep.
After an unknown period of time, a commotion suddenly sounded from downstairs. It became louder and louder, waking Lin Yan up.
Lin Yan sat up and leaned against the window of the provision store. He looked out through the gap and saw a team of people in black windbreaker uniforms on the street. They were holding a large stack of portraits and shouting as they distributed them.
“This person is extremely bold and vicious. He has already killed five innocent residents!
“If you find any clues, you can report to Master Qian’s residence and be rewarded with 300 Spirit Coins!”
It was distributed back and forth, attracting a large number of people to watch and collect the portraits.
Lin Yan quietly went downstairs. Relying on the concealment of the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, he picked up a portrait when he passed by a street corner and frowned.
It was too similar!
It was really too similar!
It was as if the charm of his appearance had been drawn on paper!
However, the only people who had really seen his appearance were the two useless Noble Realm cultivators yesterday!
Did they draw it themselves?
However, when the two of them saw him, they clearly looked down on him and did not even look at him!
How was it possible that they could draw a portrait that looked like a photo just from the description?
Or were they painters themselves?
Lin Yan vaguely felt that something was amiss. Just like yesterday, he should not have been discovered so easily, but in the end, he was quickly discovered and chased here.
It was as if his luck was bad, but it was not only bad.
He crumpled the portrait into a ball.
Initially, he just wanted to keep a low profile and find a job to live a peaceful life. Now that this portrait had been spread out, it was definitely impossible for him to live normally in the dock area. He had to change places.
He went straight to the coast and looked in the direction the ships had left in. His expression immediately darkened.
The gaps in the Chaotic Fog had already been sealed!
He had slept for an unknown number of hours. Those steamships had long gone somewhere.
Could it be that he had to wait for the next gaps in the fog to open?
However, he did not know how long it would take.
It was fine to wait. In any case, he had the Black Tortoise Divine Armor. Fie could swim out directly with the steamship, but there was a high chance that he would not be able to reach District A.
However, Lin Yan recalled that when Cheng Yu’er was talking to those people, she had mentioned that the prefecture capital was divided into many districts. It was extremely difficult to cross the districts.
However, Cheng Yu’er had a way to escape six districts in a row without being caught by the so-called Mist Patrol Division.
She must have a way to cross the various districts.
’She should no longer be in that villa, but the entire dock area is only so big. It shouldn’t be difficult to find her alone.11
Lin Yan decided to go to the villa area first.
Although Cheng Yu’er probably wouldn’t stay, there were so many things stored in the villa by her and her master. If she moved them, she might leave some clues.
Lin Yan immediately sneaked out and quickly arrived at the villa by the sea.
To Lin Yan’s surprise, he thought that there was no one in the villa. Unexpectedly, just as he approached the door, he heard a faint voice. It seemed like someone was calling Cheng Yu’er”s name.
Lin Yan gave up on entering through the main door. After some thought, he climbed up the outer wall of the villa and arrived at the top floor of the villa. Just like last time, he carefully sneaked into the villa from rhe balcony door on the top floor.
Lin Yan raised his eyebrows slightly as he silently went down the stairs. No wonder Cheng Yu’er was still here. She didn’t come willingly..
