When Nan Yu awoke, everything was dark, her hands and feet bound, and the air was filled with the smell of rotting wood.
She twisted her wrists, searching for the knot.
Before long, she had undone the ropes using the method she remembered.
Standing up from the ground, she felt the walls and carefully made her way to the door.
Nan Yu bent down, her eyes fixed on the faint light coming from the door crack, watching for any activity outside.
By this time, it was already dark, the Nan Family's villa was brightly lit and unusually quiet.
Nan Yu quickly determined her location, she was locked in a small, dark room in the backyard.
She removed a black hairpin from her hair and aimed it at the door lock.
After unlocking it, she cautiously opened the door, making sure no one was there, she quickly left the small dark room.
Nan Yu then climbed back into the villa through a window, saw no one, turned her head, and climbed up to the second floor, planning to find that document.
