It was soon noon, and C.C. and Rulu, pushing a cart filled with a large number of items they had bought, arrived at a restaurant near the mall to have lunch. Suddenly, loud sirens rang out outside the restaurant, and military vehicles continually passed by on the main road outside.

Rulu looked out through the restaurant's glass window and saw that some of the vehicles were cargo trucks, while others were armored vehicles loaded with rockets. There were so many vehicles that the convoy took nearly half an hour to completely pass.

"So many vehicles just went by at once; it looks like something big has happened," C.C. said thoughtfully, glancing outside the restaurant.

"It might be related to what happened last night," Rulu replied, recalling the events of the previous evening when he went to find Prince Suwen to investigate the murder of his mother’s sister. His whereabouts were exposed, and the assassination of Prince Suwen also failed. This commotion might have been triggered by last night’s assassination attempt.

"What happened last night?" C.C. asked.

Due to C.C.'s special identity and her awareness of his status as a prince, Rulu told her about his attempt to assassinate Prince Suwen. After listening, C.C. remarked, "So those military forces just now are likely coming for you, Rulu?"

Rulu responded, "That's possible, but it might also be for you, C.C. We’ll find out when we go outside."

After finishing their lunch, the two left the restaurant and stepped onto the street. Rulu looked around and noticed a soldier from the Sanctuary patrolling nearby. He immediately waved to the soldier and called out, "Hey, soldier!"

"What is it?" the soldier approached Rulu, looking puzzled.

Rulu took off his black-framed glasses, his eyes shimmering with an unusual light as he stared into the soldier's eyes and asked, "Excuse me, soldier, what happened in Blue Sea City? Why were so many military forces passing by just now?"

Upon meeting Rulu's gaze, the soldier was momentarily taken aback, then a friendly smile appeared on his face as he replied, "Oh, you’ve come to the right person. I happen to know about this. It’s said that last night, the newly appointed governor, Prince Suwen, was attacked by assassins. Although the prince was unharmed, he was greatly frightened, and General Feihu, who was responsible for protecting him, was slightly injured.

General Feihu suspects that last night's assassination attempt is related to the rebels, so he ordered an increase in security throughout Blue Sea City and a search for all suspicious individuals in the city. They also mobilized a large number of troops to launch a full-scale assault on the rebel organization outside Blue Sea City. Those military forces just now were heading out to eliminate the rebels."

"I see. By the way, have you heard about a young woman with green hair?" Rulu asked.

The soldier thought for a moment and then said, "I think I have, but it’s not specifically about green hair. We were told to pay special attention to young women aged seventeen to twenty in Blue Sea City. If we find any unidentified young women, we must detain them immediately, take their photos, and send them to General Feihu or Prince Suwen right away."

"Thanks, you can go now," Rulu said, and the soldier turned and walked away, heading down another street around the corner.

"Look at the mess you made last night; now you're in hot water, huh?" C.C. said, stepping out from behind a nearby billboard and approaching Rulu. She had overheard the soldier's conversation.

"It’s fine; they probably don’t know who the assassin is, or they wouldn’t suspect the rebels," Rulu frowned and pondered. "Wait, if they really are going to eliminate the rebels outside the city, then Captain Guan and the others might be in danger. I need to find a way to notify them."

Thinking of this, Rulu found a public phone booth nearby and dialed the number Captain Guan had left for him.

The phone connected, and a male voice came from the other end: "Hello, this is the Dadong Hotel in Haitian Town. How can I assist you?"

Rulu deliberately spoke in a hoarse voice, "Please inform a guest named Huang in your hotel that many people are planning to harm him in Blue Sea City. Tell him and his companions to immediately flee in the direction away from Blue Sea City as quickly as possible; if they delay, their lives will be in danger."

There was a brief silence on the other end before the man replied cautiously in a low voice, "May I ask who you are? What is your relationship with the guest named Huang?"

Rulu said, "Just tell him it's the young magic Ultra-capable he met a few days ago; he will understand."

"Okay, I got it," the man on the other end said quickly before hanging up.

"What should we do next?" C.C. asked.

"Let’s head back for now; I’m worried that Nana might not be safe alone at home," Rulu said with a worried expression. He and C.C. then hurried back, choosing secluded and less populated paths to avoid the Sanctuary's military forces.

Although they tried their best to evade the Sanctuary soldiers, they still encountered two inspections by the soldiers. Each time, Rulu relied on his Spiritual-power to control the Sanctuary soldiers to pass through.

After more than two hours, once they confirmed they weren’t being followed, Rulu and C.C. returned to the secret house in the woods of the cemetery. As soon as they entered the house, Rulu felt something was off because he sensed signs that the furniture inside had been moved, and there were disordered footprints on the floor.

Rulu and C.C. went to the secret basement, where they found Nana sitting on the sofa in the living room. Upon seeing Rulu and C.C., Nana stood up and looked at them with a panicked expression.

"What happened? Did someone come into the house just now?!" Rulu asked urgently, noticing Nana’s unusual demeanor.

Nana spoke in a panic, "Yes, at noon today, I heard the doorbell ring, so I ran to the monitoring room to check. I saw Uncle Chen and two soldiers come into the house. The two soldiers were walking around, as if looking for something, searching everywhere inside."

"Such a thing happened; it seems this place isn’t absolutely safe," Rulu said, his face showing concern. He then asked Nana, "The Uncle Chen you mentioned, is he the administrator and person in charge of this cemetery, the one with the surname Chen?"

Nana nodded and said, "Yes, that’s him. Although I’ve only met Uncle Chen a few times when I was little, I wouldn’t mistake him. Uncle Chen knew my dad before; although he doesn’t often contact my dad, they have always had a good relationship."

Rulu pondered, "I see. Since Uncle Chen is the administrator of this cemetery and has a good relationship with Mayor Qiao, this house was likely obtained through him. Uncle Chen should know that this house has a basement, and the fact that he didn’t inform those soldiers means he is helping us."

Nana said, "I think so too. I saw Uncle Chen talking to those two soldiers on the monitor, and he gave them a lot of money. The two soldiers just casually looked around the house, didn’t disturb anything, and after not finding anything, they left with Uncle Chen."

Hearing this, Rulu couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "That’s good. Although we don’t know if Uncle Chen is aware that we are living here, he probably won’t harm us. We should still be safe living here."
