Lin Jin's private students arrived once dawn broke.
Due to the startling magnitude of the commotion last night, the students of the academy had come to know about it as well. Li Xinqi and the others heard too but they were clueless about the specifics. They only learned that Lin Jin was attacked so the first thing they did was to ask about his well-being. Lin Jin behaved as he usually did but he scrutinized them all discreetly.
Throughout the entire morning, Lin Jin failed to notice any clues.
Either this spy had incredible acting skills, or his students were innocent. Anyway, he didn't gain anything from their interaction.
Of course, having no gains was good in a sense. Lin Jin didn't wish to see the problem arise from one of his students.
In the afternoon, Feng Ziqian showed up unannounced, much to Lin Jin's surprise.
