Leng Pan and her group walked to the house closest to the village entrance.
As they walked in, they found that it was devoid of any furniture. There wasn't even a broken stool inside.
And just as the old man had mentioned, the house indeed lacked a door and had no windows.
A closer inspection confirmed what they had suspected. The doors and windows were deliberately removed.
But what was the end game for this village chief?
Why would he go to such lengths just to get people into the village and the house next to his?
What was he hiding?.
The group first took black curtains from what appeared to be Lu Zhen's space but in fact, it was Leng Pan.
They hung them on the door and windows to act as a barrier.
Even though it wasn't solid, it could at least protect them from prying eyes.
"If only we had a way to investigate that chief, or at least his house or the house next to his." ZaiZai spoke despondently.
