"My subordinate only heard the maid's cry of alarm. The horse carriage was some distance away, and since that maid screamed, there has been no sign of movement from the carriage where Madam Su and her child were sitting. Perhaps there really is no one inside," said the man in black. Although he was mostly certain that Su Wenyue and her child were not inside the carriage, since he had not seen it with his own eyes, he could not state this with complete certainty.
"Damn it, there must have been a problem during that quarter-hour stop we made on the road. I knew there was a reason they stopped seemingly without cause; they must have been fixing the road while secretly shifting funds, allowing Su Wenyue and her child to leave quietly. It must be one of Master Su's strategies, truly a cunning old fox," the leading man in black said bitterly.
