Chapter 936: Chapter 934: Prism (Seven) Chapter 936: Chapter 934: Prism (Seven) “It does make some sense!”

The words of the condemned prisoner sounded quite enlightening, and in an instant, everyone turned to look at the cat named Henry in Fu Qian’s hands.

Under the not very strong light, his emerald eyes narrowed into a slit.

Other than that, he seemed to show little emotion about Adele’s death, only struggling a bit more fiercely now.

In summary, it looked somewhat abnormal.

“Guansi…”

For a moment, as a joint discoverer, Brother Red Dragon’s attitude wavered.

“Understood, so your name is Henry.”

Amidst everyone’s hesitation, Fu Qian lifted the cat’s head to be level with his own.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of it.”

He said confidently the next moment.

Is this really about taking good care of it!

His words made his teammates exchange glances.

Are we supposed to kill it now to avoid unnecessary danger? And you want to keep it with us?

“Exposed to these conditions, it might accumulate madness just as Adele said.”

Red Dragon hesitated momentarily before speaking, stopping Gunman from pulling the trigger.

To be honest, after the brief interaction just now, no matter his posture, he had no slight contempt for this sixth person.

But it was precisely this point that puzzled him.

This guy didn’t look like an animal lover, yet here he was, preferring to confront others rather than kill this suspicious cat.

“Yeah, so why are you all still standing here?”

Sadly, in response to his warning, the latter merely blinked and not only remained unmoved but even gave a counter-reminder.

That’s true… Although these conditions are everywhere, the inside certainly seemed somewhat better–everyone had been delaying outside for too long already.

But because of this, why not quickly end it for this cat, so we don’t have to keep fretting here?

After being reminded by Fu Qian, Henry’s menacing presence suddenly intensified.

“It was found in a locked safe.”

However, before Red Dragon could say anything more, Fu Qian offered his own perspective.

“Theoretically, its level of exposure might be lighter than ours.”

…
Including Masked Man, everyone looked at Red Dragon, obviously that information hadn’t been shared before.

“That is indeed true.”

Red Dragon was also taken aback for a moment, having previously overlooked that point.

“We found it in a locked safe, in a place that looked like a laboratory. It’s unclear how long it’s been in there.”

The next moment he hesitated but honestly confirmed what Fu Qian said.

“The research institute Adele mentioned?”

Masked Man pondered.

“Yes.”

“So what? Even if we assume it’s temporarily not dangerous, give me one good reason why we must drag this burden along.”

The Gunman was persistent, his tone cold.

“I think it fits my personality well.”

Facing his discontent, Fu Qian drew Mercy, wielding a gun in one hand and the cat in the other, striking a rather flamboyant pose.

One had to admit, it bizarrely looked surprisingly harmonious, a lunatic gunman aura evident.

“And if I had to choose, I’d get rid of you first, you burden.”

He even didn’t hesitate to speak bluntly to Gunman the next moment.

“Alright, considering the risk isn’t that high, let’s bring it along for now.”

“Found in that location, it might also be a clue.”

Seeing the two at odds, the team’s spokesperson Masked Man, after a glance exchange with the others, finally voiced a conclusion.

“Generally speaking, we just had a fruitful encounter. It’s best if we now head indoors to look for answers.”

“Where to?”

Pointed by the elegantly handled Mercy in Fu Qian’s hand, Gunman hesitated for a moment, eventually setting down his gun and proceeded to ask his question.

It wasn’t just him, Lady Star and the others who were relieved also seemed similarly puzzled.

“Do we even need to say?”

Masked Man smiled and gestured towards a distant tall building.

“Of course, the research institute that got the message earlier.”

…It does make sense!

They instantly grasped his point.

The research institute was one of the first places to be evacuated, Adele indeed had mentioned this detail; now without other leads, it indeed was worth contemplating.

“With the time we had just now, surely you couldn’t have explored there thoroughly?”

Masked Man continued speaking directed at Red Dragon.

“We explored halfway.”

The latter confirmed his guess.

“Then here’s to us finding even more shortly.”

Masked Man smiled broadly, signalling Red Dragon to lead the way.

The team, unquestionably strong in execution, quickly followed.

This team, which might disintegrate at any moment, finally started their first joint action.

…
Of course, after the recent exchanges, each person understood the others a bit more, which consequently made the atmosphere in the team even more tense.

For example, whether it was because of Adele’s death or not, Lady Qing appeared more reticent than before.

And the Gunman, who already trusted no one, constantly watched Fu Qian and his cat from the corner of his eye, apparently brooding over the recent events.

Unfortunately for him, Fu Qian disregarded this, crazed gunman persona fully on display, with a cat on one side and a gun on the other.

Of course, the reason he didn’t kill the cat in his hands earlier wasn’t just about the pose; it was a minor part.

That conflict mainly helped Fu Qian communicate outwardly that he wouldn’t do something he didn’t like.

In this discordant team, Fu Qian had decided from the start to lay low.

The highest state of laying low isn’t about doing nothing, but making others realize that the cost of forcing him to do something is greater than the value of the action itself.

Fu Qian believed his recent actions had thoroughly embodied this philosophy.

And besides, although Henry currently seemed of little use, for Fu Qian, just the cat’s somewhat magical entrance was entirely worth watching.

The same went for Adele.

Despite feeling rather good about himself during the situation, the chances that she was law-abiding weren’t high.

But if it was him, in the current situation lacking leads, he would choose to watch and wait, trading risk for information rather than maximizing self-preservation.

Unfortunately, the philosophy of Masked Man was clearly different, seemingly preferring to act first and eliminate[(continued)…]
