After separating herself from Sakura, Kanae moved to the back. As a minor character of this party, her existence was quickly forgotten. The guests didn't know about her, and most of them ignored someone like her who didn't wear expensive clothes.
After moving behind the crowd, Kanae reached the back stairs. There were only several servants around her, but they too were busy delivering drinks to the party. She turned around and climbed the steps towards the second floor.
The second floor was supposedly off-limits for anyone other than the Aida and the Nali Families. Kanae saw the two guards guarding the entrance to the hallway and smiled slightly. It was easy if she wanted to just bypass them, but she had to avoid the camera too.
She moved towards the side and knocked on the door. The sound caused the guards to tense up.
"Who's there?"
No one answered.
The two of them looked towards each other. "Check who's there. I'll stay here to guard the entrance."
