Selma Payne's POV:
"Frank lives in the Mullwica's house. If we want to study this place, we can't avoid him. Even if we used the excuse of patrolling the stronghold to send him away, he would return sooner or later. And we can't hide it from the other team members. When the time comes, will they not tell their captain about our operation?"
I'd also considered whether I should hide it from Frank, but I couldn't do it no matter how I thought about it unless I sent him back to the pack, which was not feasible.
"Besides, we still need to search for more red shawls. I've seen in historical fragments that there are at least three or four more red shawls. The witches had been evacuated in a hurry, so no one had time to go home and pack, right? Once the search begins, the commotion will be even greater, and we won't be able to hide it even if we want to."
"You're right," Dorothy said. "I'll tell them the good news in a while."
