Chapter 347.1: A Black Inn (1/2)

It only took a short while for the inn to empty out. Most of the doors inside were left open, so two people sneakily went inside the room that Tang Doudou had been staying in and started rummaging through the room. Finally, they found a bit of shredded skin on the ground at a very inconspicuous corner of the room.

“Boss, it seems that the woman earlier was wearing a human skin mask.

“I heard from the waiter that she was traveling with a man.”

“Let’s go, we must inform Yun gongzi!”

Tang Doudou hadn’t even managed to get off the flooded road before enormous splashing sounds started coming from behind her. Fearful that it was some sort of water monster, she hastily looked back, only to find that it was a large crowd of people carrying things on wooden boards that were making their way through the water.

She smiled slightly. It seemed that these people weren’t stupid. At the very least, they knew how to handle things in bad situations.

Tang Doudou felt relieved to see that there were people that heeded her advice and were escaping, thus her steps also felt lighter. She soon walked out from the flooded street and stopped below a slightly protruding eave to wring some of the water out of her clothes. The rain was still going strong, it seemed that she had to find a new inn.

“Didn’t that guard at the Green Maple City branch say that there was an inn opposite the branch?” Tang Doudou rubbed her chin. That location had higher elevation, so it should be safe.

She had better hurry over. Since so many people had to escape from this side, the inns over there would definitely become very crowded.

As she was thinking this, she had already started rushing over.

She went first to the branch, then turned towards the opposite street to look for the inn.

However, despite her quick thinking, the inn doors were already completely crowded.

She couldn’t help but sigh. From the looks of it, it was full.

She was about to turn and leave when she noticed that there was actually not a single person inside the inn.

Everyone was being kept outside as they clamored for the innkeeper to hurry and let them in.

They were carrying large amounts of luggage and drenched from the rain, so it would seriously be troublesome if they couldn’t find a place to stay.

It was also strange that no one from Green Maple City’s government had shown up although it was flooding so much.

Green Maple City was the Steadfast Prince’s territory, so logically, he should’ve already sent people to deal with the turmoil in the city.

Forget it, there was no point in her worrying about these things. What she had to do was hurry and find a place to change out of these clothes before she caught a chill.
