3699: They're Coming

They're Coming

"Don't stop me! I have information on Miss Feng Wu! This is a great opportunity! Let me in!"0

Noisy voices kept coming from outside.

The high-ranking officials of the city were in a meeting, so they all heard it.

News on Miss Feng Wu?

"Is it about THAT Miss Feng Wu?" The deputy mayor pointed at the decree they had put aside.

Mayor Yu didn't think much of it at first, but he almost jumped to his feet when he heard those words!

The next second, he was out the door.

He wasn't the only one.

With Mayor Yu gone, the others couldn't sit still anymore.

Hence, they all ran out of the room.

Mayor Yu grabbed the owner of the restaurant, who was stopped outside.

"Mr. Yun, what did you say?"

Without another word, Mr. Yun handed a piece of cloth to Mayor Yu and said loudly, "I know where Miss Feng Wu is! Yes, THAT Miss Feng Wu!"

Seeing the strip of cloth, Mayor Yu asked anxiously, "What's going on? Tell me!"

By then, Mr. Yun had caught his breath. He briefly described what happened in his restaurant today and concluded by saying, "There were quite a few people in the restaurant at the time, and they can all testify to that!"

The deputy mayor's eyes widened.

Miss Feng Wu?!

They had been saying that it was impossible for Miss Feng Wu to show up in Yu City, but as it turned out… It was unbelievable!

"Are you sure it was Miss Feng Wu? Are you sure she was kidnapped by a Dongsang man?!"

The series of questions rendered Mr. Yun speechless.

Moreover, the deputy mayor was so agitated that he was pinching Mr. Yun's shoulders.

That cleared Mr. Yun's head right away.

Well… that…

Most of the time, commoners like them wouldn't ask for meritorious service, but to avoid making mistakes. If he gave them the wrong information…

At that thought, Mr. Yun cringed a little.

"I- I can't be completely sure that she's Miss Feng Wu. Maybe… maybe I'm mistaken.

"Of course, we can't be completely sure when all we have is this piece of cloth…

"So, if I'm wrong…"

Mayor Yu threw a dirty look at the deputy mayor.

The decree was delivered by the fastest method. A small merchant like Mr. Yun would never know such confidential information about the imperial court, nor would he know that Miss Feng Wu had really been taken. So, he was probably telling the truth!

"Where did they go?"

Mayor Yu cut to the chase.

Mr. Yun said in a hurry, "To the northeast. That Dongsang man offended a group of martial arts practitioners, and they've been chasing him. It should be easier to find him…"

"Great!" Mayor Yu was elated.

He made the arrangement right away.

He sent a group of people to chase the kidnapper while reporting the news to the imperial court.

The lords of cities had the means to report to the imperial court as soon as possible, but because of the high cost of using this channel, they didn't use it that often.

But this was a special situation.

Therefore, Emperor Wu received the news in a few minutes.

That special channel was equivalent to a portal to the Peace Grassland.

Of course, these cities weren't qualified to build a portal to send people around, but the channel was good enough to deliver a small box.
