Chapter 87 - Contaminated Bathroom (1/2)
James dropped Lena off outside the apartment as usual. Lena greeted the doorman, the front desk person, and walked to the elevators. The elevator doorman knew exactly which floors Lena lived in. He pushed the button for her. They both waited for the elevator to come down.
”Welcome back Mr. Li.”
Lena turned her face to the voice of the front door man. ”Kris?” Lena called him out. He walked to her. ”Why are you here?”
”I live here. Can I not be here?”
”What?! Since when?”
”Since forever.”
”Then why did you use my shower this morning! You made me wait so long!” Lena's loud voice echoed through the large empty floor and the staff stared at them.
Kris ignored that comment and walked past her to go to his private speed elevator. Lena followed him, trying to match his footsteps. He stopped and press the button and the elevator quickly opened.
Lena stared at astonishment. Her elevator is not even down yet! Where did this weird thing appear from?!
Kris entered and quickly closed the door. Lena jumped back. Then she pressed the button and expected the elevator door to open as quickly as when Kris did it. It didn't. She pressed it again and It gave her a red blinking ”no access” reply.
”Ah?” Lena was confused. She walked back to Ben, the elevator doorman. ”What is that elevator?”
”That is Mr. Li's private elevator. Only he and a few people can access it.”
”Private? Can I get one for mine floor too?”
”Sorry Miss. Shen. Only one was built when the building was designed. And Mr. Li purchased it already.”
*DING*
Her elevator finally arrived. Lena entered and thanked Ben. She will have to be faster next time to use it with Kris. It was a technology that she had not seen before in any of her worlds.

Lena entered her bedroom and tossed herself to her soft bed. She was tired, but there was no time to be idle when your enemy was still lurking around. Lena decided to take a nice warm bath to refresh herself. She took off her clothes and gently got into the shower. She washed her hair first before washing her body. She still needs to take care of her wound.
After making sure she was cleaned, she headed to grab her tower. She stopped and stared confusingly at the empty hanger. 'Hm… I am sure I always put it back here..'
