Inside the pawnshop.
Qin Shuang stared at the dim oil lamp, waiting for Shen Bai to return.
CREAK...
The wooden door opened, and Shen Bai stepped inside.
"So, did you find out what happened?" Qin Shuang asked, leaping to her feet.
Shen Bai nodded and explained what had happened with Zhou Qing.
Qin Shuang's eyes darted about thoughtfully. "When should we set off? How about tomorrow?" she asked.
Although Shen Bai had agreed to join the Observatory, nothing was official yet, which left Qin Shuang feeling a little on edge.
Shen Bai nodded. "Tomorrow. I'll go pay my respects at Granny Zhang's grave, and then we'll leave."
Shen Bai and Zhou Qing had given Granny Zhang a proper burial recently. Now that he was leaving Shengyun County, Shen Bai wanted to pay his respects at her grave first.
Zhou Qing had already paid his respects before leaving, so of course, Shen Bai had to go as well.
Qin Shuang said, "Then you should get some rest. We'll go together tomorrow."
