No one expected they would capture the footage they needed on their very first reconnaissance mission.
As expected.
When luck is on your side, nothing can stop it.
Though delighted, Yang Qi didn't let his guard down. He issued a command to Liu Fu through the communicator.
"Liu Fu, mission complete. You can return the way you came. Be careful."
On the screen, Liu Fu, perched atop the bookshelf, received the command. Its protruding eyes swiveled, confirming that the target, still squatting on the floor, remained focused on his documents and hadn't looked up.
Its slender body slowly moved backward. Silently, it slid off the edge of the bookshelf. Following its original path like an intangible shadow, it crossed the room with swift silence, slipped under the door, and returned to the hallway.
"Xiaojiu, Liu Fu is coming out. You head back, too," Yang Qi directed Xiaojiu at the same time.
Xiaojiu responded with a mental affirmation.
