Chapter 946: Chapter 944: Prismatic Colors (17) Chapter 946: Chapter 944: Prismatic Colors (17) “Let’s go then.”

Confronted with Adele’s request to accompany her, Fu Qian appeared indifferent, as if he couldn’t care less.

Of course, that was only on the surface; in fact, he was quite satisfied with the proactive offer.

After all, he knew of Paul only by name and had no clue where the man lived.

“But don’t you dislike him?”

While being satisfied, Fu Qian casually threw out a piece of information to make the conversation more natural.

“It’s precisely because I dislike him that I want to go.”

Adele snorted, not denying Fu Qian’s statement at all.

“If I don’t warn him, that guy might just lock Henry up in a cupboard.”

Not to mention, your prediction of Henry’s fate was crystal clear–he was indeed destined to end up in a cupboard one day.

After admiring Adele’s foresight for a moment, Fu Qian gestured for the lady to go first.

…

Indeed, neighbors.

Soon after, following Adele through the streets and houses, Fu Qian stood silently to one side as he saw Adele casually take out a key and open a door.

It was clear that this was Adele’s own home, and the reason for her actions would soon be revealed to Fu Qian.

Inside, Adele walked over to the window and fussed with a mounted monocular telescope before gently parting the curtains.

Fu Qian could see clearly: the monocular was aimed at a building across the street, slightly lower than this one.

“He’s at home, let’s go straight over.”

A few seconds later, Adele turned around and spoke with certainty.

“No choice, that guy doesn’t like seeing me. He might pretend not to be in if he hears my voice.”

After explaining the reason for her actions, Adele motioned for Fu Qian to follow her.

It was clear that this place used to bustle before the accident, and Adele undoubtedly had a good rapport with people.

Following Adele through a narrow alley between two buildings, they were greeted by three people within just a few steps.

However, Adele was clearly in a sour mood and only responded half-heartedly before she headed straight upstairs and started knocking on a door.

“I know you’re in there, open up.”

Not giving the homeowner much time to think, right after knocking, Adele put her ear to the door to listen for a few seconds, then promptly called out when she detected no movement inside.

Fierce!

Fu Qian gave a silent nod of approval. With such a powerful vanguard, he decided to just observe quietly.

And she did not disappoint. After the second round of knocks, the homeowner finally caved, and the door opened.

Adele was right; her neighbor indeed stood tall and handsome.

Golden hair, half-long, draped over his shoulders, with enough of an artistic air to make a fine male model.

At this moment, however, the man’s expression was visibly poor as he gave Adele a hostile look.

Seeing Fu Qian behind her, his face registered surprise.

“Angelo, you need something from me?”

For a moment, Paul even ignored Adele, looking at Fu Qian with bewilderment.

This feeling of being the focus… was certainly… suspicious.

“Yes.”

Feeling Paul’s somewhat exaggerated reaction, Fu Qian responded naturally, his expression inscrutable.

“I was just talking off the top of my head, really, you shouldn’t take it so seriously.”

Fu Qian’s tone clearly added another layer of psychological pressure, causing Paul to grit his teeth and say defensively.

Oh? That statement carried a lot of weight.

Several guesses simultaneously sprung into Fu Qian’s mind, prompting him to smile even more mysteriously.

“I didn’t take it seriously, but someone seems to be overthinking.”

“You…”

At that point, Adele seemed to catch on too, unable to hide her shock as her eyes darted between Fu Qian and Paul.

“Did this guy tell you about the disaster?”

She was quick-witted, quickly arriving at a conclusion.

“What exactly do you guys want here?”

Adele’s obviously uninformed response startled Paul too, making him realize he might have misspoken.

“Oh, I found this under the seat at the cinema.”

As the situation grew awkward, Fu Qian lifted up the cat he was holding.

“Considering its habits of relieving itself wherever, Sergei was quite furious.”

Just for this?

For an instant, Paul’s face was a tangled mess of disbelief and incredulity as he looked at Fu Qian for a long time before finally reaching out to take Henry.

“Regardless, if you dare to lock it up, watch out, I might report you.”

While still reeling from the information bombshell, Adele evidently hadn’t forgotten her initial intent.

Given Paul’s current mental state, the prospect of him dealing with this troublesome pet was far from optimistic.

“Unfortunately, this is my cat, and what I do with it is none of your business.”

But Paul was obviously not in the best of moods either, bluntly rebuffing his neighbor’s stern warning.

You…

For a moment Adele looked visibly upset and even stepped forward, as if to prevent Paul from taking Henry away.

Unfortunately for her, Paul was undaunted, his cold laugh slowing his actions as if to provoke her into retaliating.

Why does this feel like a love triangle situation?

Amusedly watching the scene unfold, Fu Qian refrained from speaking immediately; instead, he glanced back in the direction he and Adele had come from.

Although reduced to an ordinary person, his heightened sense of hearing had become almost instinctual, and just then, he’d picked up a faintly hurried sound of footsteps approaching from upstairs.

Compared to Adele, Paul seemed far more concerned with Fu Qian’s reaction and subconsciously followed his gaze, freezing mid-gesture.

Two figures appeared at the stairwell, almost without hesitation rushing toward them.

“You…”

Paul turned back to Fu Qian and Adele, his tone now decidedly aggressive.

“You’re lying to me.”

“Are they here because of the rumors?”

Adele couldn’t bother defending herself at this point, instinctively turning to Fu Qian.

“They must be here to deal with the rumormonger.”

Fu Qian, recognizing the uniform of one, confirmed Adele’s guess.

Of course, in the eyes of Adele and Paul, both of the new arrivals would be dressed in uniform.

One of them was none other than Brother Red Dragon, Fu Qian’s partner from not so long ago.

In this timeline, he seemed to be playing the role of a research institute security guard.

And it wasn’t just him.

Fu Qian turned to look down the other side of the corridor, only to spot Lady Star.

Compared to Brother Red Dragon, her attire seemed far more fitting for the occasion.

At this moment, both individuals wore expressions of complete astonishment, clearly not expecting to run into Fu Qian here.
