Chương 152: Cassian disappearance news

Alix came by to check if Lumine and Cassian were working. Finding only Lumine there, looking visibly worried, she asked, "Where's Cassian?"

Lumine, lost in thought, snapped back to the moment when she noticed Alix's presence. Quickly masking her concern, she put on the most nonchalant tone she could muster and replied, "I don't know. He didn't come back last night."

Alix frowned, her confusion deepening as she muttered, "Did he stay in the village overnight?"

Lumine shrugged, a gesture that spoke of uncertainty, though her expression betrayed lingering concern. Before either could say more, one of the mansion guards came rushing toward them. Offering a quick bow, he said urgently, "Detective, there was an attack last night."

Lumine's worry immediately intensified, her eyes narrowing as she stood up. Alix, still processing the sudden news, gave a firm nod, her tone resolute. "Take us there."
