Faced with Edwin's expectant gaze, Hewinia fell into deep thought once more.
Indeed, as Edwin mentioned, snatching a pile of fake Corpse Blocks from the Black Merchant Headquarters was much easier than taking that finger from Rocky again. Hewinia had no reason to not choose the easy path... if she truly was in cahoots with Edwin.
But the issue is, Hewinia never planned to help Edwin complete that taboo research from the start. Who knows what he might come up with?
At the very least, without Bai Wei's consent, Hewinia would not assist Edwin in continuing his research. She merely intended to use Edwin as bait.
So what should she do next... huh?
Hewinia frowned slightly, turning her head to look out the window.
In this peaceful night, it seemed she heard something.
A gentle melody, as though it could blend with the moonlight.
So she immediately retreated, and the melody turned from gentle and peaceful to aggressive, followed by a "boom" that shattered the entire windowsill.
