章節 60: Fleeing

I was afraid that no matter what evidence I showed them about Alistar, they wouldn't believe me. Or even if they did, he would still come out on top.

The nobles were highly respected, and the chances of me getting screwed in the end were high.

'Should I run away? They're not going to pay me anyway, and no one will believe I killed them myself,' I thought.

No one knew about that secret passage, which was a good thing.

I went down the stairs again to check if they were really dead, and they were. I searched Alistar's body—as carefully as possible—and found a key in his coat.

I took the key and left. When I returned to the warehouse, I closed the passage using the shelf next to it, locking it so no one would easily find it.

Of course, they would soon realize that Alistar was missing, and that would create a huge commotion. But I still had a whole night to escape from that place.
