"There's a closed inn one street back; they want to take Miss Feyos there," Fang Hong whispered.
Hilveld's eyes reflected an image, winter in Dulun with pedestrians on the street, and three or four members of the Shadow Throne were separating from the crowd, heading in their direction.
She remained calm, her hand reaching behind her back under her skirt, where one of the handguns Sicape had given them was hidden. She looked at those people, smiled slightly, and without turning her head, she teasingly asked, "Is Lord Captain planning to play the hero and rescue the damsel in distress?"
Fang Hong hurriedly explained, "Miss Hilveld, this is..."
"Those people are coming, Lord Captain—"
"But it seems they don't intend to let us leave easily," Hilveld replied with a smile.
