The best place to gather intelligence was always the competition's doorstep.
Under close surveillance, Fu Qian was escorted all the way to the entrance of the Night Watcher base.
Time was of the essence. Fu Qian didn't waste a second. As soon as the young Night Watcher left, he quickly flagged down a car.
"You're going to Houhai Manor?"
But when the driver heard the address, his expression turned a little strange. He looked Fu Qian up and down.
"Is there a problem?"
The driver's reaction was puzzling. Fu Qian's biggest concern was that the place might be some kind of secret code name. That would be a bit of a hassle.
"No problem, but not many people take a taxi there."
About an hour later, while they were still some distance from their destination, Fu Qian got out early.
From here, he could already see a vast complex of magnificent buildings in the distance.
Houhai Manor was actually the residence of a true elite family. It was probably several times bigger than the Xiyuan Huang Clan's ancestral home.
No wonder the driver had been surprised.
The people who came and went from a place like this were probably all celebrities and dignitaries. Even if they were down on their luck, they wouldn't be taking a taxi.
Young people these days cared so much about appearances that they made themselves suffer for it!
Seeing Fu Qian get out so far from the manor, the driver sighed and shook his head as he took the bills Fu Qian had fished from his pocket.
Fu Qian paid no mind to the driver's misunderstanding. After getting out, he didn't hurry toward his destination. Instead, he waited patiently off to the side.
Sure enough, about ten minutes later, the roar of an engine sounded.
