Looking at Jia Xu's bedroom, now plunged into darkness, Liu Zhong said uncertainly, "Perhaps! Even if he didn't discover us, he must have guessed that we've been monitoring him!"
"What if he takes the opportunity to escape?"
Liu Zhong shook his head. "No, I've checked it myself. There's no secret passage in his bedroom. If he wanted to escape, he would definitely find another way."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Zhong said in a low voice, "Send two people to sneak behind his bedroom. The rest of you must keep a close watch on all the doors and windows. No matter who goes in, if anyone comes out, take them down immediately!"

Which two?

"Go on!"
Liu Yan smiled and nodded, signaling Liu Zhong to continue.
Liu Zhong nodded and said, "Secondly, Jia Wenhe discovered his subordinate's actions but did not take any action, which shows that he is preparing to defect to his master and is very confident that his master will accept him!"
"Heh, talented people are always so confident!"
