"You just wait here. If I don't come out in an hour, you go back to the inn and wait for Guan Yunbai to come. He can mobilize the files. Don't put yourself in danger easily." Gu Can reminded the two again.
"You are the one who must come out on time." Gu Yan said.
Gu Can nodded and sneaked into Huixing Tower. After leaving their sight, Gu Can cast the invisibility spell and the breath-holding spell. He walked through the gate of Huixing Tower quietly and found himself in a dark corridor.
She walked forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise. At the end of the corridor was a half-open door, letting in a faint light. Gu Can held her breath and slowly pushed the door open, revealing a spacious hall.
In the center of the hall stood a large table, strewn with documents and maps. Gu Can approached the table and carefully examined the documents. Suddenly, he heard light footsteps and quickly hid under the table.
A man in black walked into the hall, looked around, and then walked to the table and began to rummage through the documents. Then the man in black left.
Gu Can left the documents alone. He wandered around the room, finally turning the candlestick on the table. The bookshelf opened, revealing a secret passage behind it. This passage led downwards and felt quite deep. After walking for a while, Gu Can heard the sound of dripping water.

"Cancan, what happened? You look really bad." Gu Yan poured a cup of tea for Gu Can worriedly.
Gu Can took the tea, feeling uneasy. No matter how much she had been through, she still couldn't accept it when she saw it again.
"Those girls can't be saved." Gu Can's tears instantly fell. Thinking back to the scenes she saw, she felt really uncomfortable.
"Cancan, didn't you say that we should just do what we can? Bad guys are always around. We can't change the past. What we can do is to prevent tragedies from happening in the future." Gu Yan had never seen Gu Can cry before, and she hugged her to comfort her with heartache.
