The setting sun gradually sank below the horizon.
The drawbridge of Macheng County was being slowly raised, preparing to close the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city watched the fading figures and whispered to each other.
"Wasn't the one who left the city earlier a servant of Lord Di's family?"
"That's right. The young girl in the middle seems to be the miss of Lord Di's family, and who is that young man?"
"Didn't they say that the Second Young Master of Di family went missing last night? I'm afraid the man next to their miss might be her fiancé, the son of Constable Zhang in our governmental office. But, at the moment, what is she doing leaving the city?"
