Seeing him so anxious, one of them felt a jolt in his heart and quickly replied, "Don't panic, don't panic! It hasn't been long, they only left this morning." As he spoke, the man waved his hands frantically, trying to soothe Lin Yu's emotions.
"If you're looking for them, if you give chase now, you might still catch up." His speech was rapid, and his gaze was sincere and concerned, as if he feared Lin Yu might fall ill from the shock of the news.
Meanwhile, the man was muttering to himself: Why is this young man in such a blazing rush? It looks like those who left are very important to him. Still, judging by his demeanor, he shouldn't harbor any malicious intent, or why else would he be showing such intense anxiety? Better tell him first to keep him from badgering with questions. With that thought, the man continued, "They headed north, though I couldn't say where their exact destination is." Having said this, he carefully observed Lin Yu's reaction, wondering if he had said too much. What if this young man had a personal score to settle with those people? Wouldn't he be bringing trouble upon himself? Yet, looking at Lin Yu's earnest and anxious expression, he decided he was probably overthinking things.
