Before Cynthia, They Were All Rabble

"Artificial rainstorm..."

Heiduo was a little curious about how Clair and Cynthia had gotten together, but on second thought, they were practically distant relatives. It was only natural for them to help each other.

Clair waved her hand. "All right, I won't keep talking to you two. I'm taking these five away. We'll give you an explanation for the house attack in a couple of days. The attack here probably had something to do with your raincoats!"

Wallace had frowned when he first heard Clair say she was taking them away, but when he heard that the rooftop attack was related to their raincoats, his face filled with confusion.

Who would have thought they weren't?

Heiduo and Wallace both frowned after hearing that. These people were far too lawless. Even if they had been Dragon People, did that mean they could try to kill them?

"There's still a lot to deal with next, so I won't waste any more time talking here." Clair had Dragonite carry the five gray-clothed people downstairs.

There was nothing much worth mentioning about what happened afterward.

Wallace took Winona and Bai Xue to find a new place to stay, parting ways with Heiduo. Bai Xue and Winona thanked Heiduo and Kiley before leaving. Just trivial
