Luo Xi: "..."
[Traveler, you feel your foot being stepped on.]
[You look down and realize that Cat Cat is stepping on you.]
[Lena glances at you, "Let's go."]
[Squeak—]
[The door of the cottage opens automatically.]
[Traveler, as you exit the cottage, some people eagerly enter.]
[Is this shop really that popular?]
[Lena lowers her voice, "Ten pounds of Essence Crystals, that's outright extortion. If it were outside, I'd certainly extort a batch back from them."]
[Wei'er whispers, "So are we going to try and find someone in that retirement home now?"]
[Lena shakes her head, "That retirement home is filled with retirees from the Winter Legion; it has ample security forces. It's as difficult as reaching the heavens to sneak in, unless a big-shot is willing to take us in."]
[Wei'er falls silent.]
[Lena consoles the girl, "It's all right, there will always be opportunities, at least now we know that someone survived that day."]
