Chapter 524: 262 Beat Up (One More)

“Bagging someone got easier the more often you do it. After bagging Silver once, bagging people felt almost the same.

The princess didn’t even have time to scream before she was hoisted up and taken away!

The two women-in-waiting who were clearly following the princess lost her just as they turned the corner.

It’s true that the princess turned into the alley before they did, but she couldn’t have disappeared that fast, could she?

They rushed to the carriage, pushed open the curtain, only to find it completely empty.

One of them then asked the palace guard, “Did you see the princess?”

The palace guard replied, puzzled, “Wasn’t the princess with you?”

The woman-in-waiting responded, “The princess was just here! Didn’t you see?”

Palace guard questioned again, “When was the princess here?”

The woman-in-waiting exclaimed in frustration, “She was just here!”

The palace guard scoffed, “Would I not know if she had been here?”

“You…”

“Forget it, Sister Ming.” The other woman named Qing shook her head, “Let’s not argue now, we should hurry and find the princess instead. Maybe she’s around here somewhere, possibly meeting someone.”

Ming murmured, “Why would the princess leave us behind and go meet someone else alone?”

Qing suggested, “Let’s find her first, then we can talk. Let’s split up.”

The three of them split up to find her, but the alley was straight with no detours, and only full of parked carriages. They searched each carriage, yet found no trace of the princess.

“Did you really see the princess go into the alley?” the palace guard asked.

Ming anxiously replied, “The princess was right in front of us, she turned a corner, if she didn’t go into the alley, where did she go?”

The palace guard suspiciously looked up at the rooftops, could she have been kidnapped? _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

As night fell, the last rays of the sunset stubbornly clung to the magnificent eaves, creating a dazzling stream of light.

Gu Jiao, light as a swallow, darted from the rooftop, carrying a large bag. She transported her bounty via the back door into a fruit garden near Bishui Alley.

The fruit garden was semi-open, and the neighbourhood children loved to play there. If they picked fruit, they had to buy it by weight, which was cheaper than the market price.

There was an old toolshed modified from a stable behind the garden, which had fallen into disrepair and was now unused because it leaked roof.
