No-show

Noticing the anxiety of Tang Mingyue and the others, Brian comforted them, "Your Highness, I've sent someone to communicate and coordinate our later preparations. The griffin farm will soon send someone to pick us up. It'll be fast..."

Wei Tao looked at the remaining time of the trial and felt uneasy.

He couldn't help but look up at the end of the road outside the city.

Their trip to Hani City this time had been full of difficulties. They had wasted too much time investigating.

He couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he had chosen to let Fang Heng come with them.

Would Fang Heng notice the problem?

Also, why wasn't Fang Heng here yet?

They had agreed to meet in the morning, but why was he a no-show?

Could it be that he was delayed by a side mission?

At first, Wei Tao and the others were planning to wait for Fang Heng to come, then discuss the investigation in the Empire's main city with him.
