"Do you really want to go after Ote Himeya?"
Mr. Abe's expression became oddly complex.
He could not help but detect the resoluteness hidden beneath Su Lun's seemingly casual demeanor.
Persuasion was futile, so faced with choosing the lesser of two evils, he could only ask, "When are you planning to make your move?"
With a faint air, Su Lun replied, "Within three days."
"So soon?"
Mr. Abe's brows furrowed upon hearing this.
The last Black Sun Grand Festival had practically wiped out all of Edo Castle's undercover agents; he had no more pawns to play.
Given more time, he might have thought of some other way.
Or perhaps seek support from beyond the Mountain Hermit's reach.
"Hmm."
Su Lun did not provide any further explanation.
