Chapter 178
Before entering the house, Michelle remembered something and turned back to look at the group of men that surrounded them. She didn’t need to think much to know that once she and Ivona stepped into the house, they would go tell someone of higher rank to come help.
And there was no telling how powerful that someone would be. So there was no need to risk anything.
Taking long strides toward the group, one by one, Michelle grabbed their foreheads and activated her memory manipulation skill. She made it so they remembered her and Ivona’s presence in the city, but they wouldn’t think about it unless someone stimulated it.
And even then, they wouldn’t say where the two of them went. She made them completely forget that part before having them leave.
Finally, she turned her focus to the house. Being a former assassin, she had the inkling to sneak in, but she held back. She didn’t know who was in the dark and who was in the light. And no matter how it was, it could quickly turn the other way.
"You won’t go in." Ivona glanced at the house, able to guess Michelle’s thoughts. "So we’re going to continue moving around here and search for information?" It somehow sounded like a question, suggestion, and guess all at once.
"Yes..." Michelle nodded. "But I don’t know where to go first."
"Does that even matter?" Ivona lifted a brow.
Michelle shook her head. "Not really..."
"Then what’s the problem?" Ivona continued asking.
A frown formed on Michelle’s face. She was thinking about going around the city to create a map of it in her mind, but she could be spotted by someone.
