Karyk searched through the entire house that supposedly belonged to him.
Qien waited outside the house, keeping guard. Many times, he thought about running away while he had the opportunity.
Even though Karyk hadn't killed him yet, he knew that it was only a matter of time. Still, where could he even run? He could only try to run to the Inner City, but he wasn't going to be allowed in.
In his eyes, Karyk was also from the inner city. So even if he managed to enter that place, he was not safe. He could try to approach the guards, but without knowing the identity of this person, it was also useless.
He had already made a mistake by underestimating this person. He did not want to make the same mistake again. If the guards were also working with him, then what? He didn't want to test this theory.
