Two Southern Hu men approached, ready to drag him away.
He panicked, struggling as he shouted, "Sir! I've found some clues! Please, hear me out!"
His words had the intended effect, and they let him stay.
"Speak."
The voice was ice-cold, seething with killing intent.
"I... I discovered that the fire last night was deliberate! And... and it wasn't just one person, it was a group! I found several points where the fire was started—"
"Have you identified anyone?" the man asked, glancing back at King Yan Nan.
The soldier lowered his head. "N-no... They're very cunning, and... and they seem to be extremely familiar with Long City! I've already dispatched men to search the entire city. I'll report back as soon as I can!"
As he finished, he began to kowtow again.
'Very familiar with Long City?'
King Yan Nan grew pensive.
