Chapter 932: Chapter 930: Prism (3) Chapter 932: Chapter 930: Prism (3) Is that pessimistic?

At the mention of Fu Qian’s viewpoint, Brother Red Dragon seemed quite surprised.

For him, Lady Star’s intentions were quite transparent and welcome; he hadn’t expected Fu Qian to be so negative.

“What’s the reason?”

He humbled himself to ask seriously.

“Because of my codename!”

Fu Qian responded with an air of it being self-explanatory.

“If I were too optimistic, wouldn’t it clash with the nickname ‘Guansi’?”

…

“Just kidding, I was just guessing.”

Facing Brother Red Dragon’s complex gaze, Fu Qian’s expression turned friendly in an instant.

“Isn’t it time to move on?”

Brother Fu Qian had no objections; he simply preferred not to say too much.

As for the reasons of pessimism, in Fu Qian’s view, within this five-person squad, the seemingly calm and proactive Lady Star was actually the most flustered.

The reason was simple: she showed the most concern for the team.

Although there was a rare consensus to hide personal information from each other, it was clear from their conversations that they were all newcomers.

If they were really the same kind of veterans as himself, then encountering this kind of situation, the reactions of the death row inmates and Qing would actually be the most normal.

Maintain a distance, scrutinize carefully, instead of starting to pretend to manage everything right away.

Lady Star’s behavior, aside from conveying the message “I really want to keep this team moving together” and seeking a bit of Mercy, was meaningless.

Based on Qing’s behavior, Fu Qian seriously doubted how much mercy she had left.

“We should get going.”

Fu Qian didn’t want to say much more, and Brother Red Dragon didn’t push. Instead, he began to seriously examine the tall building in front of them.

“The place is big. Even in the best-case scenario, it’ll take us some time to search this whole place.”

“Indeed.”

Fu Qian echoed, following behind him.

Putting aside the logical issues in language expression, Brother Red Dragon still showed a trustworthy level of professionalism.

In addition to his burly physique, he had unhitched the strange-looking weapon hanging from his body.

It was a Blade Spear of bizarre design, its intricate structure made from cleverly assembled parts numbering more than ten, with a certain steampunk grace.

Although it was only the length of an arm when folded, it could clearly be extended further, and the gleam on the blade suggested it could easily slice through any fleshly Creation.

Professional!

After observing, Fu Qian didn’t hold back his praise.

By comparison, his own getup seemed less professional, even though this was a rare occasion when he carried a weapon.

He looked at the Tranquilizer in his hand and felt his presence was nowhere near as imposing, at best like a battle priest.

Of course, should he pull out the Mercy from his gun bag to form the exorcism set, it would have some posture, but who knew whether the other party might whip out an Armstrong Cyclone Cannon or something?

…

His daydreaming did not delay Fu Qian’s actions. He moved with caution, following Red Dragon’s teaching to always keep each other within sight.

Considering the cautious approach, Brother Red Dragon chose the service elevator route over the main entrance, only to find the elevator sadly out of service.

It was just as well, since they needed to conduct a floor-by-floor search anyway.

And while he had vowed to take it easy, Fu Qian was not so bored as to drag everyone down.

Brother Red Dragon soon found that regardless of whether his movements were fast or slow, his partner could always keep up easily, and their efficiency soared.

Not too long passed before they had searched nearly half the area.

The outcome was completely indicative of nothing gained.

From what they saw along the way, the building was nothing more than an old office tower of quite a high standard.

One notable feature was the numerous iron locked doors.

As a result, Fu Qian’s lock-picking skills had improved even further along the way.

As for the door locks, with the backup power obviously out, Brother Red Dragon had no trouble with them.

…

“This place is really strange.”

After checking another lab-like room, Brother Red Dragon finally expressed his mild disappointment.

Fu Qian nodded in understanding.

Along the way, the man had been the epitome of professionalism, searching every inch of the area as efficiently as possible.

But curiously, the office workers had done such a good job keeping secrets that they had not found a single piece of paper that could offer any information.

In the laboratory in front of them, there were some bottles and jars, but their uniform feature was the absence of any labels.

Considering their current physical condition, Fu Qian had absolutely no interest in smelling unlabeled reagents, which could be a potent weapon.

At this moment, a disheartened Red Dragon had already reached a corner of the room, looking at a grey safe.

“Can you–”
“Yes.”

Before he could finish asking, Fu Qian had already moved forward decisively.

“This kind of lock isn’t a problem.”

…

“How long do you think it will take? We need to consider the time for what follows.”

Having seen Mr. Guansi’s talent along the way, Red Dragon had no doubt about his words.

However, given what they had encountered before, Red Dragon was somewhat hesitant about whether the safe was worth opening.

“It won’t take longer than discussing this.”

…

Watching Mr. Guansi’s skillful and professional movements, Red Dragon decisively refrained from further comment and took up the task of standing guard.

Although theoretically, there didn’t seem to be anything to guard against in the vicinity.

But considering that his partner was picking a safe, it was only natural to feel a bit guilty.

Fortunately, Fu Qian didn’t let this unease last too long; a soft click soon sounded, announcing the successful unlocking of the safe.

Fu Qian stood up, put away his tools, and gestured for the other to proceed.

As it should be.

Realizing that he was being invited to open the safe, Red Dragon did not decline.

Given the slightly eerie nature of their journey thus far, what was inside the safe was a mystery that could contain hidden dangers.

And having done the technical work, it was only right for him to take the risk.

He too was cautious, not approaching the front directly, but using his weapon to inch the door open from the side.

With no sound at all, and no bullets or poison arrows shooting out, Red Dragon sighed with relief, but his disappointment surfaced simultaneously.

However, the next moment he knelt down, looking into the safe under the pale blue light shining through the window.

Almost immediately, his heart skipped a beat as he saw a pair of bright green eyes, staring intently at him from the darkness.

Meow~
Along with it, was a strong and forceful meow.
