Time rewound to late at night.
A black sedan stopped in front of a villa, the lookout entered and met with his teacher, Joy Dobin.
"How come you're the only one back, where are the others?"
"They infiltrated quite some time ago and haven't returned, the address is... I was afraid something had changed, so I came back to report to you first."
"You weren't followed, were you?"
"No, I circled several blocks, made absolutely sure no one was behind me, and there were no owls following either."
"That's good, go out of town and hide for a few days, and don't contact me without my orders."
The black sedan departed, heading straight out of Lundan Town.
Joy waited at home for several hours until dawn broke, finally confirming that his three students were not coming back, before he picked up the phone and made a call.
"Teacher, the plan failed, we didn't capture him."
"Why did it fail, how do you handle things?"
