Seeing that it wasn’t Su Yunling who ca, Gu Zhiqi felt a slight twinge of disappointnt.
Had thought it was ti for dinner.
Standing at the door were Lan An and Mu Huai. As soon as Gu Zhiqi opened the door, they imdiately spoke.
"Master."
"Divine Doctor Gu."
Gu Zhiqi nodded slightly, leaning lazily against the doorway, looking at the two and asking, "Is there sothing?"
The two heard his words, exchanged a glance, and finally Lan An spoke, "Master, your disciple has a favor to ask."
Seeing that Lan An didn’t specify what the favor was, Gu Zhiqi knew that saying it at the door was inconvenient, so he said, "Co in."
Having said this, he turned first and walked into the room.
Lan An and Mu Huai saw this and imdiately stepped in to follow him into the room.
Once inside, Mu Huai closed the door to the room.
The three of them sat down on the sofa.
"Master, are you familiar with Tang Yichen from the Ever Winning Army?" Lan An didn’t start with the request but asked this question first.
Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, looked at Lan An, "Just so-so."
Lan An understood from this that their relationship must be decent.
If they weren’t familiar, Gu Zhiqi would have said they weren’t familiar outright instead of saying "so-so."
"I heard the Ever Winning Army raided Luya Base last night, and the person who took the key was at Luya Base. We don’t know if that person was captured by the Ever Winning Army or if the key ended up in their hands." Lan An briefly explained before looking at Gu Zhiqi and asking, "Master, could you ask Mr. Tang for us?"
Gu Zhiqi paused for a few seconds before looking at Lan An and asking, "What does the person you’re looking for look like?"
Lan An shook her head helplessly, "The Angel uniforms are uniform, everyone is covered tightly, really don’t know what that person looks like."
Even though Mu Huai and Lan An have both encountered the person, they don’t know what he looks like.
After Lan An finished speaking, Gu Zhiqi said nothing, but Mu Huai imdiately added, "Though we don’t know what he looks like, I know his weapon is an umbrella."
Gu Zhiqi’s eyes shifted slightly, "An umbrella?"
Mu Huai nodded imdiately, "Yes, an oil-paper umbrella."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Mu Huai, "Like this?"
Mu Huai stared at the umbrella on the paper, stunned, his lips trembled several tis before nodding repeatedly.
"Yes, it’s exactly like this," Lan An spoke ahead of Mu Huai.
Seeing Lan An respond, Mu Huai said nothing more, but stared intently at Gu Zhiqi, "Divine Doctor Gu, this paper you..."
Gu Zhiqi calmly folded the paper and put it back in his pocket, then looked at Mu Huai and Lan An and said, "The person with the oil-paper umbrella isn’t dead, nor has he fallen into Ever Winning Army hands."
Lan An and Mu Huai were both shocked upon hearing this.
Gu Zhiqi ignored their reactions and instead asked, "The key you’re talking about, what does it look like?"
Lan An imdiately replied, "Blue, with a shimring ice-blue glow."
Gu Zhiqi nodded, looking at the two, "Don’t worry about the key, I’ll retrieve it and hand it personally to the governor of Central Continent City."
Lan An and Mu Huai were once again stunned upon hearing this.
Lan An was the first to return to her senses, looking at Gu Zhiqi with a worried expression, "But, Master, are you going alone? Let and..."
Lan An’s words were cut off by Gu Zhiqi.
