In the courtyard lay several coffins, with only a thin old man sitting.

"The plague was first discovered here," said Xiao Nanye.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Peihuan slowly walked into the courtyard.

As she approached the old man, Jiang Peihuan abruptly stopped, warning, "Don't come over!"

Hearing her voice, everyone halted.

Jiang Peihuan quickly covered her face with her badge.

She looked at Xiao Nanye and the others, whispering, "Cover your faces. The clothes he's wearing are the source of the infection."

A grim expression flashed across Xiao Nanye's face upon hearing this.

The old man, however, looked surprised after hearing Jiang Peihuan's words. Although he quickly tried to mask it, he still asked feigning ignorance, "What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Peihuan didn't respond to his question but pressed on, "Where did you get the clothes you're wearing?"
