593 The Great Hoodwinker

In the town outside Stronghold 61, in a dimly lit house, the young Qin Sheng was writing an entry in a notebook with a fountain pen by candlelight:

"On December 7th, Ren Xiaosu headed out to the tavern as usual at 10 in the morning and stayed until 7 in the evening before leaving.

"I observed nothing out of the ordinary nor heard any useful information during surveillance. After the target returned home, I only heard the sound of him flipping through some books in his house.

"Even though Ren Xiaosu lives in town, he was somehow able to get his hands on newspapers. I suspect the newspapers were given to him by the storyteller. However, there is no conclusive evidence of this."

This was Ren Xiaosu's daily routine that Qin Sheng recorded. He even had surveillance equipment placed next to him.
