Before they fell asleep, there was a knock on the rest cabin door. The knock sounded unhurried and courteous.
Panther immediately stood on alert. Although he entered the middle floor normally, Philip did not, so he could be regarded as a smuggled immigrant.
Philip also sat upright. Although he did not know who the visitor was, it should be related to the previous incident. After all, looking at Panther’s expression, it was obviously not someone he knew.
Philip was all the more unknown on the middle floor so this result was easy to judge. However, they were now stuck in this rest cabin, almost impossible to up and leave.
Philip said to Panther, “Open the door. I think they’re here for the incident earlier.”
Panther stared at Philip grimly without speaking. However, he knew how troublesome this matter was. If Philip’s identity was found out, he would be implicated too.
“If I didn’t speak later, don’t say a word either. Don’t let the cat out of the bag.”
Panther glanced at Philip worriedly before he got up, walked over, and opened the rest cabin door.
Several people stood outside the door wearing simple armor of the same style, obviously belonging to the same place.
Seeing the door open, they asked Panther very respectfully, “May I know if the person who took care of Mr. Cusack is staying here?”
They asked without beating around the bush.
Panther frowned. He had prepared many excuses and had even thought of how to explain Philip’s background. He never expected that these people would directly ask him if the person who took care of Mr. Cusack was here.
It was simply beyond his expectation.
