Unbeknown by them two men who look like a hunter watching them from afar then the next moment they disappear.
Meanwhile, the soldiers find the man they look for, that man was kicked to the wall with a heavy bump and his wife runs toward her injured husband with tears in her face and there daughter crying ceaselessly, other people feel bad for the family but no one dare to interfere they can only watch them anxiously.

People who heard them murmured to each other they heard about the rumor from the neighbor city how the governor abused his authority but their's no concrete prove so the official can do anything.
This the first time they heard that the governor is a pedophile they become scared, some even hide their son from the soldiers.
The soldiers face turn ashen they didn't know this man dare to spill the governor dirty laundry, they look at each other anxiously but the captain step in "What kidnapped? You dare to slander the government official!"
"That kid is the governor adopted son, you and that woman dare to kidnapped him and sell him for slavery, how big is your gut huh!" the captain twisted his words he can't let anyone know about his Lord bad deeds or he would be implicated.
"No, that's not true!" the man wife shouted, "They're only a visitor in our town, just because that boy handsome some bad villager want to kidnap him for the governor in exchange of money but that because they are very poor and hungry, if not because the boy sister is strong enough to win against the villager and all of you who can imagine what would happen to that poor boy!"
Compare to the soldiers and the pitiful family of course people would believe the pitiful family, they just normal family how could they have the ability and guts to kidnapped the government adopted Son, so everyone thought the soldiers words is full of rubbish no one would believe them.
The captain and the soldiers realizes no one believe them and they worry someone might already report them.
"If you did not kidnap the governor Son where else you got the money to move in here, you only the owner of dilapidated inn how can you make so much money" the captain points his finger at them, he knew everyone in his town didn't have money or resource to leave the town that's why no matter how bad the official treat them they can't leave their town so for this family able to move to An wang city who is more richer than their town is impossible if they don't have sufficient money.

The Calculator - Supervillainess Time Loop
What makes a terrifying villain? Is it ruthlessness? Is it how powerful they are and how many buildings they can down in one blow? Is it how hard they are to kill, contain, or get rid of in any manner? Is it their knowledge of a hero’s true identity in a world where secrets must be kept? Or is it perhaps how they seem to be perfect in all their actions, defeating the hero at every step of the way throughout to the last one, only to humiliate them one last time before declaring themselves the winner in the grand scheme of things? Isabella Blair is perfect. She knows all your moves before you even make them. All your ambushes are faced with traps and she dodges all your blows like it’s child’s play. Catching her is impossible because she’s always ten steps ahead of you. She says she calculated everything, but she messes up in every fight. She loses far more than she wins, sometimes a hundred times for just one small victory. Yet, she is perfect. How is that possible, you may ask. That’s because she has the uncanny ability to return to the past whenever she makes a mistake. All that’s left in the end can only be what’s perfect if all the realities in which you’ve lost are gone, after all. And that makes for one hell of a terrifying profile.
