The next day, Shen Hao decided to slack off. He sent a guard to the Thousand Households Station to let Wang Yiming know he was taking a rest day and wouldn't report for the Upper Emissary today.
This was a habit Shen Hao picked up back when he was a Small Banner Officer in Li City. At that time, after completing a case, you'd always get three days off to decompress, all for the sake of easing the frontline soldiers' nerves. After all, a frontline soldier doesn't just sit in the Public Office sipping tea and solving cases—they have to risk their lives most of the time, so proper rest is a must.
Now, Shen Hao felt he also needed a little break. Even if it was just for a day.
But even with a rest day, Shen Hao didn't get a chance to sleep in. Whether he liked it or not, the biological clock works its magic on cultivators too. Before dawn, he woke up right on time from his dreams.
