The people present there currently furrowed their brows upon hearing Hei Bao's words.

"We'll make do with him. Have you seen his face yet?" Hei Wan spoke.

"No, not yet. If they are death warriors as well, they probably have poison hidden in their face covers. I just didn't want to take the risk there." Hei Bao replied.

"That was wise. We can check it once we go inside." Hei Wan spoke while nodding her head.

She turned around and walked in through the entrance of the town center. The others followed behind, and Lin Mu did the same. Hei Wan went to a different room this time instead of the office. They went to a room that was on the second floor.

The room was mostly empty, except for a table and a few chairs. The walls were made of stone and had no windows. The eight people walked in through the singular entrance and closed the door upon entering.

"Place him on the chair and lock him with the chains." Hei Wan ordered.

There were some chains and shackles that were kept on the table. It seemed like to Lin Mu that Hei Wan had already expected this and had prepared this beforehand. The diver of the carriage and Hei Bao went ahead and restrained the culprit with the chains and shackles.

After this was done, Hei Bao carefully removed the face cover of the culprit, revealing the poison sacs that were hidden within. If someone else had carelessly removed the face cover, they would have just exposed themselves to the poison and would probably die.

Hei Bao put the cloth that had the poison sacs attached to in a separate corner of the room, away from others. He then removed the final layer of the cover from the face of the culprit, revealing his face.

Though in the end, the revelation turned out to be disappointing as none of the people could recognize the man that was the culprit.

"Anyone know who this is?" Hei Wan asked and looked around.
