After handling the main affairs that afternoon, Jiang Han confidently let Xu Fangying take over.
Before sunset, she returned to Mist Immortal Cat Nest by herself.
Pretty close.
After leaving the office, she passed through deep, shadowy corridors, then traversed one complex staircase after another—enough to overload a cat brain. (When giant cats got annoyed, they floated and jumped across the stairways to take shortcuts.) Then she reached the collective cat lounge of Cat Sea Grand Cathedral. By the lounge's hearth stood a long corridor lavishly screened off by rocks, shrubs, cherry trees, and maple trees. Going up from there, the only cat-nest gathering point along the corridor was the Cat Lamp Witch gathering point.
Mist Immortal Cat Nest was among them.
It sounded complicated, but it took less than two minutes to walk there.
If she was in a hurry, she could leave the office corridor and, with a whoosh, imitate the bomb goblins' "Takeoff!" and fly straight up.
It would not even take half a minute.
There were no other cats in Mist Immortal Cat Nest, nor were there any other witches.
Jiang Han let out a sigh of relief.
"No one's here? Meow-aow-aow, this is getting good. There's nothing to do today..."
"Ding-dong!"
Jiang Han's expression froze.
The timing of the bell was so uncanny that she suspected someone had installed a surveillance device outside her door.
She wanted to pretend she had not heard it, but with a sigh, she scrunched up her little face, planted her foot back into the boot she had only half taken off, and swung her big tail around front to fasten the buttons of the coat she had not yet removed. She walked to the door.
When she opened the door to Mist Immortal Cat Nest—
It was not Ovi.
