Night.
With bellies full from food and drink, Lu Ban and Qin Tiantian left the barbecue restaurant.
Some university students who didn't plan on returning to their dorms that night, focused on gaming, were purchasing midnight snacks at the various stalls that were closing one after another in the back alley, preparing for battle at Summit of the Gorge.
Right next to the Northeastern barbecue was an internet café, and by its entrance was a slightly dark alley.
Lu Ban walked just behind Qin Tiantian, saying that from this angle, he could observe everything around them. Should any strange thing suddenly appear, he would be prepared.
The two walked out of the restaurant, and the trash cans diagonally across from them suddenly clanged loudly, startling Qin Tiantian so much that she quickly stepped back, hiding behind Lu Ban.
"It's a cat."
