After a few more minutes, Luo Mingzhi walked out with a cello case, went downstairs to open the car door, tossed the case onto the back seat, and then drove away from the campus.
This was Jiao Bide's car. She arrived at a place by the river with no surveillance or street lights, placed the cello case against a tree, and then drove away.
These cello cases are quite suitable for holding people. It's unknown why Jiao Bide's home would have such an item, since he's never been seen playing the cello; today it happened to be used to hold him himself.
A person emerged from behind the tree, tested the handle on the cello case, thought it was too heavy and might break, so they also carried it off under their arm, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
The figure of this person was surprisingly that of Layman Xingrui, who had recently resigned from his position as a steward at the Alchemy Sect due to some issues.
