As she spoke, Mary turned her head to look around. Yes, this was indeed her guest room.
"How come, haven't you woken up yet?"
Seeing Mary's puzzled and flustered expression, Duanmu Huai chuckled.
"Wasn't it you who asked me to stay last night?"
"Ah... ah...!"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Mary was momentarily stunned, then she suddenly remembered something and quickly blushed, retreating back under the covers.
"… Sorry, I'm really sorry! I am awake now, fully awake!"
"That's good."
Duanmu Huai stood up at this moment.
"Go take a bath and change your clothes, then we can have breakfast and head to the Strategy Bureau. Investigator Amon just called saying he has something important to discuss with us."
"Okay, I'm going right now!"
Mary wrapped herself in the blanket, listened to Duanmu Huai's footsteps gradually fading away, and after he closed the door, she carefully peeked out from under the covers and looked around before sighing in relief.
"Phew…"
