The journey to Bonti began promptly, but for Yuzhen, it was more puzzling than anticipated. Unlike the others, he was completely unaware of the mission's true purpose.
"Senior Rui," Yuzhen called out as they traveled, glancing at the surroundings with a furrowed brow. "Don't you think we're taking the wrong route? This path leads north, doesn't it?"
Rui glanced back at him, his expression calm but firm. "We're not heading directly to Bonti right now."
Yuzhen blinked, his confusion deepening. "What? But isn't that the mission's goal?"
Rui sighed lightly, noticing Yuzhen's surprised expression. "Bonti is our final destination, but there's something else we need to handle first, some unfinished business. It's a confidential matter, so whatever you see or experience along the way, keep it to yourself."
Yuzhen hesitated, his curiosity bubbling to the surface. "Where exactly are we going, then?"
