The courier station was two stories tall. A stable was right next to the building. When Lan WangJi and Jiang Cheng arrived, they happened to see a tall shadow rush inside and lock the doors behind him. Afraid of Wen ZhuLiu’s ‘Core-Melting Hand’ technique, the two decided not to alert the enemy and flipped onto the roof instead of entering through the door. Jiang Cheng forced back the towering hatred within him. Clenching his teeth, he stared without a blink down through a slit between the roof tiles.
"Sometimes you need to calm your anger, ChengCheng." said Wei Wuxian.
"That's my parents murderer and you expect me to be calm." Jiang Cheng said in disbelief.
"But I did really forced myself to calm and don't attack." he added.
Wen ZhuLiu seemed to have been travelling. In his arms was another figure. As though dragging his legs, he walked to the second floor and placed the person beside the table. He then ran to all of the windows and closed the curtains so that not even a breeze could pass through. He finally returned to the table and lit up the oil lamp.
The faint light illuminated his face. It was still pale, still cold, but two dense smears of black were under his eyes. The other person by the table was covered entirely. Even their face was hidden in a cape. As though inside of a fragile cocoon, the person shivered within the cape, panting as he suddenly exclaimed, “Don’t light the lamp! What if he finds us?!”
"Damn, what kind of voice is that?" asked Wei Wuxian with a frown but smirked after a few moments.
"That must be Wen Chao." he laughed.
"But who is he afraid of?" asked MianMian.
"Maybe that person who attacked them in the supervisory office." said Jiang Cheng.
Lan WangJi looked up, exchanging a look with Jiang Cheng. Both of them had the same confused look.
This person had to be Wen Chao. But how did Wen Chao’s voice become like this? So thin and so sharp, it didn’t seem to be Wen Chao at all?
"I'm also confused here." said Jin Zixuan.
"Can this scene be anymore clearer. It only gives us more mystery to solve." he added.
"What about having some patience, a-die." said Jin Ling.
"You will know what really happened sooner or later." he added.
Head down, Wen ZhuLiu searched through the belongings within his sleeves, “Is it that if we don’t light the lamp, he won’t be able to find us?”
Wen Chao panted, “W-We’ve run so far, for so long. H-He shouldn’t b-be able to catch us, right?”
Wen ZhuLiu appeared to be indifferent, “Perhaps.”
"He? So it's a man. I wonder who it is that made you scared like that." laughed Wei Wuxian.
"I am not." said Wen Chao.
"Stop lying. You know that the Lans doesn't like it when you lie." said Wei Wuxian.
"He's not a Lan and Lans doesn't care about him." said Jiang Cheng.
"A person who is nearing his death." he added.
Wen Chao fumed, “What do you mean perhaps?! If we haven’t outrun him why did you stop?!”
Wen ZhuLiu, “You need ointment. Or else you’ll be dead for certain.”
As he spoke, he took off Wen Chao’s cape. Both of the two on the roof were shocked.
