A shuriken from outside the window flew horizontally, and Ye Qingci slightly lifted her hand and caught the delicate shuriken at her fingertips.
"This is their arrangement for tomorrow, Miss Ye, I'm taking my leave first. I hope... we'll meet again."
The voice of Jiugui echoed from afar, clearly altered in a way that made it impossible for Ye Qingci to discern his whereabouts.
Ye Qingci knew that chasing after him would be futile, as this elusive figure was impossible to catch; she didn't bother to waste her effort and simply let him go.
Bowing her head, she opened the intelligence from the Izumo Society left on the shuriken. As always, Jiugui had detailed records of where barriers and prohibitions had been placed by the Izumo Society and where the most personnel had been deployed.
Although Ye Qingci had never trusted Jiugui from Yihe, she had to admit that his ability to gather intelligence was indeed strong.
