'I have to act fast before any of the servants who noticed me can get word out about my visit here,' Xie mused.
"See you later, Victor. I will take my leave," he said to the plump minister.
He stood up and adjusted his brown tail coat, which he wore over a white shirt and grey trousers. He walked to the cane quiver and picked out his walking stick amidst two other walking sticks before leaving the living room. He had a good memory of the servants that he met in the house before and after the minister arrived home. He found them and used a spell to obscure the information in their minds about his visit today. Xie did well to ask these charmed servants if they had spread the word about his presence, and if yes, who did they tell? In the end, just a couple of them told other servants, and these other servants told no one. So, it was easy for Xie to find them and obscure the information in their minds with his spell.
