What Did Xiaoxiao Tell You?

"Executive!" Wu Heng added, naming the position.

Shiraque continued, "Minnie said the Investigation Team was attacked by Netarei City's army. No one was hurt, right?"

"No. The Investigation Team is safe. Some injured members have also received treatment," Wu Heng answered.

"That's good!" Shiraque let out a relieved breath.

"Alright. I'll bring you gifts when I return."

There was no response from the other side. The call ended.

It was somewhat surprising that Shiraque had gone to the Island Master's Manor to contact
