206 Clue Search (2/2)

”You can wait here. I will go on my own.”

”Okay. These are the key cards for the fifth floor,” Yu Fei gave him a few key cards and keys.

”Okay,” Zhang Zian took them over. Each key card had the company's name on it. It was very clear.

As Zhang Zian was about to leave, Yu Fei stopped him. ”Mr. Zhang, please wait. Take this.” He gave Zhang Zian a walkie talkie. ”You can talk to me with it.”

Yu Fei taught Zhang Zian how to use the walkie talkie.

Taking the walkie talkie, Zhang Zian left the monitor room. Winking to Old Time Tea, Zhang Zian brought both Old Time Tea and Fina in the elevator.

It was the weekend. The elevator was empty. Both Old Time Tea and Fina had been in an elevator before so they weren't surprised.

When they reached the fifth floor, Zhang Zian took them out of the elevator. He looked up and saw a surveillance camera. He already knew from Captain Sheng that there were dead angles in these cameras so he wasn't worried that Yu Fei would turn the cameras back on. As long as the process of releasing Galaxy from the app and turning Old Time Tea invisible wasn't being recorded, he had nothing to worry about.

No one was on the fifth floor. It was quiet.

He entered the stairs, which also served as an emergency escape route. There was no surveillance camera there.

Pulling out his cell phone, he released Galaxy.

Galaxy yawned and raised a paw to rub its eyes. ”Zian, where are we?”

”This is a tall building. Some bad kids who stole people's stuff came here before. Now it is our job to find them,” Zhang Zian explained.

”Zian, they might not be here anymore,” Old Time Tea reminded him.

”I agree. Well, we have to try our luck. A few buildings were stolen from before, too. We can't search every one.”

Old Time Tea nodded. ”As far as I see, this building looks like it is strictly managed, but there are lots of loopholes.”

Zhang Zian agreed to Old Time Tea's point. The biggest flaw was that there were not enough security guards. When they talked to Yu Fei, there was no one on duty at the gate. If a car or other small animal slipped in, no one would've noticed. Of course, it was also a weekend, so there might not be as many security guards. There might be more during the week. Zhang Zian also noticed that the security guard in the monitor room was not paying attention to the monitors because he quickly put away his cell phone when the group came in.

Fina was a bit impatient. ”So what are we doing here? I don't want to waste any more time.”

”So, you are saying that you are a busy cat? You would only lay in the sun and do nothing at home anyways. You can lay in the sun here,” Zhang Zian couldn't help but rebuke.

Fina opened up its eyes and fought back, ”Shut up! That is my palace, which is way better than here!”

”Okay. I don't want to argue with you. Well, let's search for some clues and we can go home when we are done.”

Hearing that it could go home, Fina reluctantly shook its fur and braced itself up.

”Zian, should we stay together or search on our own?” Old Time Tea asked.

”Well…” Zhang Zian wasn't sure. He threw the ball back to Old Time Tea. ”Grandpa Tea, what do you think?”

Old Time Tea thought for a second. ”Either way has its pros and cons. Let's stay together.”

Zhang Zian confirmed right away. ”No problem. Let's do that. I prefer staying together as well.”

Honestly, if they got separated, he would have to worry about Fina causing trouble or Galaxy getting lost. Staying together seemed like the way to go.
