"Woo——woo——woo——!"
Just as they were speaking, the sound of horns suddenly pierced through the night sky of Jinling.
Following that, the chaotic sound of gongs rang simultaneously from multiple directions in the city.
"Report——! Urgent report——!"
A Captain stumbled and burst through the interrogation room door, helmet askew and armor crooked, face marked with horror: "It's not good, sir! Multiple riots have suddenly erupted in the city!"
"At the Three Mountains Gate Water Pass... People near the water gate have gone mad! The Qinhuai River Pier too... And people have seen white threads emerging from several wells in the east of the city!"
"Also... there's the Ghost Theater Troupe's demons, spreading... spreading that toxic white thread everywhere! They're shouting things like 'Silkworm God is furious,' 'the court is unrighteous,' and 'offer the city to avoid disaster!'"
"What?!"
Qiu Mingyuan's face changed dramatically.
