"The deceased... were they here to attend the Harvest Festival?" Malin, being a Red Pole of the Goddess of Harvest, naturally thought this way.
"Even under Thainan's reign, the wilderness isn't truly safe. After all, there are roaming thieves and solitary spirits, so initially, we thought it was just an isolated case. The authorities of New Hangzhou simply dispatched a team of patrol officers to handle it. But three hours later, we received a call that the deceased were members of the Golden Ship music group here to perform at the Harvest Festival; all of them were dead there."
Malin frowned: "... So you're saying that the members of the Golden Ship music group who entered New Hangzhou were impostors."
"Yes, to avoid alerting the enemy, I went to the guards to confirm who the inspector was when the Golden Ship music group entered the city. Then I went to his house and found him and his family dead in the basement, already starting to rot." At this point, Sage Yu looked at Malin.
