Gu Jinghui had a busy day. First, he sought people everywhere, then coped with the magistrate, forensic doctor, and constables who came to investigate the case. Unable to be everywhere, he had no choice but to send someone to the Ninth Princess to request leave again.
His whole being exuded a dark chill, which anyone with eyes could see reflected his terrible mood. But Gu Jingjun, who had been missing all day, chose this moment to come crashing into him.
Gu Shiba couldn't help but feel a sweat for Sixth Master Gu.
Gu Jinghui asked, "Where did you see that nanny?"
"On Horizontal Street, near the corner not far from the Qin Mansion. I saw her from the carriage; she seemed furtive, hiding from someone. I told the coachman to stop the carriage, and as soon as I blinked, she was gone. At the time, I even wondered if I was seeing things."
Gu Jinghui glanced at Gu Shiba, who immediately went out to instruct everyone to search for people near Horizontal Street.
