"Do you think I don't want to?"
The Prefect was not flustered. Although he didn't know why these people wanted to find those noblewomen, he knew that for them to achieve this goal, they would have to cooperate with him.
"Losing those noblewomen would lead to my impeachment, and at the very least, I'd face exile!"
"I want to find those noblewomen more urgently than you!"
The Prefect's expression was stern, exuding a calmness amidst turmoil: "After the incident, I locked down Prefecture City and arranged for trusted aides to guard the city gates."
"If a group of women were hiding in the city, it's impossible for them not to be discovered!"
The Prefect was furious this time, capturing all the leaders of those notorious gangs, and after a session of punishment, many chose to cooperate.
The information channels of these people were both varied and plentiful, but none of them found any clues.
