It should be said that it was the sound of someone trying to open the door.
Maid Miss tilted her head and stared expressionlessly at the simple wooden door... Her gaze pierced through it, revealing a man standing outside. He wore flip-flops, held a large ring of keys, and looked distinctly unfriendly.
The landlord of Huoyun City had appeared!
Bang bang bang!!
"Li! I know you're in there. I can hear the TV! Come out! It's been another two weeks—when are you paying the rent?" The landlord pounded hard on the door. "Don't think I can't get in just because you installed a new lock! If you don't open up, I'll kick the door in today!"
Seeing that the landlord was about to break in, Maid Miss slowly raised her palm and gently blew across it.
A gray, shimmering mist drifted out, passed straight through the door, and scattered across the landlord's face... His raised leg slowly lowered.
Then the landlord expressionlessly turned around and went downstairs.
The cheap rental fell silent once more... except for the children's program still playing. Maid Miss casually glanced around, then walked toward one of the rooms inside.
The room's door opened automatically.
She clearly had no desire to touch anything here. Even when her shoes met the floor, ripples of light spread out with every step.
This should be Xiao Hu... Li Jianren's room.
It looked like an ordinary adult man's room, except that the windows were sealed shut and the air carried a stale, decayed smell... Her master had sent her to investigate something, so naturally she would complete the task seriously.
Even though, at this moment, she truly wanted to burn the whole place to ashes and then clean up properly.
The room was small—small enough to see at a glance.
