Chapter 24: Chasing the Dragon (Part 2)

Then she pushed open the door and walked out. Outside the washing room was not a bedroom, but a room similar to a study, with a low table, tatami mats, bookcases, brush and ink. The furnishings were simple, but they gave Sangsang a warm and familiar feeling, as if she had returned to her true hometown.

This room, full of Xuri Empire style and resembling a study, was empty.

Following the procedure she had memorized countless times, Sangsang came to the bookshelf, moved a thick book from the third row and second slot, revealing a button on the wall behind it.

Sangsang pressed the button.

She then put the book back on the shelf, came to the low table, knelt on the tatami mat, and began to wait.

She didn't have to wait long; about ten minutes later, the door to the room was pushed open from the outside.

A man dressed in a kimono walked in.

The man in the kimono was in his forties, with a lean face, hooked nose, and cold eyes, showing that he had a strong will and ruthless means.
