Chương 1624: Back to the Tavern

Ning arrived at the Spirit Department late in the morning the next day, waiting until he saw someone he recognized. When he finally saw the woman from yesterday, he caught up to her.

"Miss," he called her.

The woman turned around. "Oh, it's you," she said.

"Yes," Ning said. "Any information?"

"I'm not sure," the woman said. "The director should have some idea. You should talk to him."

"The director… is the old man from yesterday?" he asked.

"The one with the white hair, yes," the woman said. "Come, I'll take you to him."

The woman began walking away and Ning followed behind her. "Did the girl not come with you?" she asked.

"No," Ning said. "She… her time of the month started, so she is in a bit too much pain to walk this far. I came here in her stead."

"Oh," the woman said in understanding.

They walked until they arrived at a small hallway with couches along the side. "Sit here, I'll see if the director is around."
