Wufu stopped at the entrance of the study.
"What's wrong?" Ah Jiu asked.
"You go in first," Wufu gestured with her mouth, "I'll check over there."
Ah Jiu followed her gaze to a fish pond rockery. What's so interesting there?
But thinking that she didn't know what to look for either, Ah Jiu nodded and quickly entered the study.
Who knows when Zhao Mingjun might return. They needed to act swiftly.
They split up to handle different tasks.
Wufu walked to the rockery. Below it was a small fish pond where a few koi fish were joyfully swimming.
She walked around the rockery, looked at the Moon Viewing Pavilion, and tilted her head slightly as if pondering something.
After circling it a few times, Wufu stopped, focusing on a particular inconspicuous spot on the rockery, touched evidently by many before. She felt it with her hand, pressed, no reaction, then twisted.
Creaaaak creaaaak.
