Upon walking inside, Lin Mu saw that there was someone else sitting in the shop. The man was dressed in the clothes of a high official and he had seen him before. It was one of the men that had come with the leader of the Hei corps, Hei Wan.

Lin Mu nodded to him in greeting and saw him reciprocate as well. He then walked inside the other room under the guidance of the old woman. The old woman came to a stop in front of the wall and held out her hand.

"The badge." The old woman spoke.

Lin Mu withdrew the badge from the ring while putting his hand inside the pouch and handed the badge to the old woman. She looked at it for a moment, before inserting it into a small slot that was hidden in the seam of the wall.

The wooden panel of the wall shifted and Lin Mu walked inside it. After stepping in, the panel closed back, and he started walking down the passageway, into the stairwell. He reached the entrance of the safe house a couple of minutes later and opened the door.

As soon as the door was open, he saw two people standing in front of the door. They seemed to be alert and ready to attack. But after seeing Lin Mu, they relaxed and sat back down on their chairs.

"I need to report something. Where's Hei Bao?" Lin Mu questioned.

The man who was sitting in front of Lin Mu was one of the members of the Hei corps that Lin Mu had not met yet.

'He's probably someone that came with Hei Wan.' Lin Mu thought.

"You can head on inside. The captain is having a meeting with the rest of the Hei corps." The man spoke.

Lin Mu simply nodded and went to the room that was to the right. He opened the door and saw the ten members of Hei corps standing around Hei Bao and Hei Wan. They turned around to look and saw Lin Mu entering.

"You're here already?" Hei Bao said.

"I have a couple of things to report and I also would be needing your help with something." Lin Mu replied.

"Go ahead." Hei Wan spoke in affirmation.

"The town head has declared a strict curfew at night. The captain and new vice-captain of the town's guards declared to the residents." Lin Mu spoke.

"We already know about the curfew." Hei Bao spoke.
