“I noticed it too,” Saramei said, her brow furrowed, “but I can’t quite put my finger on what’s strange about it.”
“Don’t worry, Miss, I’ve already sent my men to guard the area. If he makes any unusual moves, we’ll just…” Mogard said, making a downward cutting gesture.
"Don't act rashly for now. Let's see what he's up to after we arrive at Father's place of imprisonment tomorrow," Salami said coldly.
Mogard couldn't help but laugh: "So it turns out the young lady had already taken precautions. I was overthinking it."

The same conversation took place in the snow cave where Pei Mianman and the other girls were. Yun Yuqing found an opportunity to pull Pei Mianman to a corner and secretly transmitted her voice through her inner energy: "Mianman, don't you think he's been acting a little strange these past two days?"

Pei Mianman fell silent, and after a long while replied, "Azu told us to trust him unconditionally these past few days."
Yun Yuqing's heart skipped a beat, as if she had suddenly realized something: "It seems that Azu has his own plans. I was worried for nothing."
Pei Mianman smiled but didn't say anything more, though her heart was filled with worry.
There are some things that others may not know, but she knows them all too well: how Qiu Honglei almost lost her life?
The true Lord of Slaughter is dead and will arrive at his destination tomorrow. At that time, he will probably be unable to keep it a secret any longer. When Salami and the others learn the truth, they will launch an attack. How will this end?
