"...Is this the place?"
This was already the twentieth time today that Seer had checked the address on the note, making sure he had not come to the wrong place.
What stood before him was a storefront under renovation, with the sound of sawing wood and clanging coming from inside.
No matter how he looked at it, this did not resemble an inn.
"Is there someone named Xu Shun here?"
"No, no. How many times do I have to tell you?" the man doing carpentry at the entrance replied impatiently.
Seer refused to give up and continued asking.
"Then who owns this place? An important client of mine put this address down, and I need to find him somehow."
What does that have to do with me?
Without even looking up, the carpenter said,
"The owner went out. He won't be back until before dark. If you want to see him, just wait."
Before dark...
Noon was before dark, and so was afternoon. Because of that damn line, he had already stood here for an entire day!
Now it was clearly getting dark, and this guy was still telling him "before dark"!
Just as Seer was about to give up, the figures approaching from afar instantly swept away the regret and frustration on his face.
Like a man who had spotted a purse on the ground, Seer cried out in delight.
"Hey! Mr. Xu Shun!"
As he shouted, he did not forget to wave, signaling that he was here.
"Someone you know?" Shu Yu glanced curiously at the guard beside him.
Xu Shun made a helpless expression.
"Vault residents consigned some goods through him. They signed my name."
Shu Yu stroked his chin and nodded thoughtfully.
"So that's how it is."
"Looks like there was a result."
