"Mituo?"
Yang Xiao knew this place; it was a border town, very close to the Myanmar-Tai Black Triangle. Back in the day, Sui secretly crossed the border through here.
Professor Cui's words were quite intriguing; he mentioned that we were going to Mituo, not 'I'. Linking this to Nalan Shuo's evasiveness, Yang Xiao judged this was a secret mission.
"If uncle doesn't mind the trouble of taking me, I'd like to go with you to broaden my horizons." Since it was a secret mission, and the destination had already been disclosed, refusing would seem somewhat ungrateful.
Seeing Yang Xiao agree, Professor Cui nodded with satisfaction, "Good, then go back and prepare; we depart tomorrow night."
Leaving tomorrow night—Professor Cui had only arrived in Rongcheng tonight. Yang Xiao immediately realized that Professor Cui's visit was just a formality; the real task was this journey to Mituo.
