Brian Ho had been treating her well lately and hung out with her quite often, but nothing magical had happened as of yet. He took her to the hotel, but she had no recollection of what happened after they checked in. Brian always told her that she was tired and soon fell asleep as soon as they got to the hotel.
Though Sarah Shen didn't trust him entirely, she couldn't find anything unusual since every time she woke up, Brian was there taking care of her.
Therefore, Sarah was preoccupied with enjoying Brian's attention and avoided meddling with Linda.
Besides, her father had warned her not to mess with Mu clan affairs. As a result, she led a relatively leisurely life recently, skipping classes at the police academy and dating Brian.
Amy noticed that Sarah had zoned out.
"Sarah, what are you thinking about? Are you listening?"
Amy's question snapped her from her reverie. "What? What did you say? I'm sorry. I zoned out for a bit."

"Amy, you shouldn't have done such a thing. Obviously, it was a trap. He might have arranged the imposter to take Linda's place within the Mu clan. That was why he had abducted the real Linda."
With Sarah's explanation, everything became clear to Amy. "That's right! Why didn't I connect the dots together?
What should we do?" Amy was completely at a loss.
"Don't worry. Since you just gave him a verbal promise, he can't do anything to you if you don't fulfil it. We must take our time to make careful deliberations."
