On May second, a message from the Processing Bureau came through Chen Chuan's Realm Token, summoning him to the bureau. They said they had some questions for him.
'So it's finally happening,' he thought.
He'd expected the Processing Bureau to contact him within a day or two of the incident with Zhao Qian. He was surprised several days had passed. 'Maybe they only just found out?'
Just then, his Realm Token chimed again. Seeing it was Ni Qianqian, he accepted the call. "Sister Ni?"
Ni Qianqian asked, "Did you get the summons from the bureau for questioning?"
"I did. Any idea what it's about?"
"It's about Zhao Qian, of course. He's gone missing. Did you know?"
Chen Chuan feigned a little surprise. "Missing?" He knew Zhao Qian was dead, but this was the first he'd heard about him being officially "missing."
"Yes, that's the one."
Ni Qianqian said, "Didn't you accuse him of hiring men to attack you? Because of that history, some people at the bureau now suspect you're involved."
