Jun Ning observed the situation at the carpenter's residence, trying to discover something, while the person responsible for protecting her, Ming Yue, was conversing with a hunter.
"Are you just talking nonsense? It's just a person who hasn't returned home for two days. How did he suddenly die? Maybe he went out to buy something or visit relatives."
"Not necessarily dead."
The hunter shook his head, "That eccentric old man has lived his whole life alone, neither has relatives nor goes out to shop. He grows all his own food."
At first, this made the old man sound quite normal. Growing food, he's not going to starve himself, that's not strange.
But—
The hunter continued, "The reason I said that is because the old man is reckless, constantly researching how to fly. If he could actually fly, I wouldn't say anything, but the problem is, he can't fly at all."
