Although Aunt Tong had not left the clan for many years, she was definitely more familiar with the first base than Huo Yao. It did not make sense for her to be discovered so easily.
Moreover, Aunt Tong liked to be a night walker and the sun had just set.
Hence, they could not rule out the possibility of someone else sneaking into the base and being discovered.
That was why Huo Yao said there was a 50% chance of it happening.
"What do you plan to do now?" Asked Min Yu. He could tell that Huo Yao's friend was very important. Otherwise, she would not have come all the way here.
Huo Yao composed herself and glanced sideways at the darkening sky. She said softly, "I need to go in and take a look."
Min Yu seemed to have guessed that she would say this, so he said, "I'll go with you."
Huo Yao fiddled with her phone before putting it away. She turned to look at Min Yu. "I can go alone."
Min Yu felt a strong sense of "you are going to drag me down" coming at him. "..."
"... I mean, we are too big of a target." Huo Yao contemplated before she explained tactfully.
Min Yu became even more silent.
Huo Yao coughed before she turned to look at Zhuo Yun and continued to ask him about the situation.
At this moment, the closed window of the dining room made a loud thud. It sounded like something had bumped against it. It was neither light nor heavy.
Huo Yao's sharp ears instinctively looked in the direction of the window.
Apart from a few old window flowers, there was nothing.
Zhuo Yun heard the sound too. He strode over and looked outside cautiously before he reached out to push the window open. Everything looked normal in the garden.
Zhuo Yun narrowed his eyes. He did not sense any living beings, so he closed the window.
But when he closed the window, a gray figure dashed out hurriedly and ran into a hole in the corner of the wall.
Zhuo Yun glanced at it. It was just a rat, so he did not think much of it. He turned around and went back into the living room. "This house is old. Something must have fallen and hit the window."
Huo Yao nodded and stood up. "Okay. Wait for my news here."
Min Yu stood up too. He reached out and hugged Huo Yao tightly. After a while, he let go of her and said expressionlessly, "I won't come out in half an hour. You know what I mean."
"... It's only been half an hour. I think you overestimated me."
"Twenty minutes." Min Yu looked at her without hesitation.
Huo Yao's pupils contracted. "Half an hour it is. Just you wait."
After saying that, she walked to the door as fast as she could, opened the door, and dashed out in one go.
When Min Yu heard the door close, he shook his head helplessly. This person was really …
"Yu, are we really going to wait here?" Zhuo Yun asked softly.
Min Yu slowly rolled up his sleeves and glanced sideways at Zhuo Yun. "What do you think?"
Zhuo Yun instantly slapped himself. "Got it. I will inform Yang Yi right away."

Outside the building.
Shangguan Hou looked at the little pet that had returned. He then put away the specially made flute and let it climb into his coat pocket.
Shangguan Hou reached out to comfort her a few times before raising his head to look at the small building not far away. His lips curled into a cold smile.
It seemed that he didn't need to go to Shangguan Yu for she had come to him on her own accord.
Shangguan Hou took out his phone and made another call.
