Chapter 2169: Chapter 2164: Confinement (38)
"No, never seen it before."
Tinaâs emotions were intense, but unfortunately, no one paid her any mind.
Fu Qian smiled silently, while "Emily" also didnât look at her, instead she stared in this direction for a long time and really answered Fu Qianâs question.
"Pity."
Fu Qian wasnât dissatisfied with this, he just sighed.
Regarding entering Full Moon Garden initially, he never minded looking for traces.
The reason for asking just now was, on the one hand, due to the strong sense of déjà vu when the mission started this time.
On the other hand, it was the suspicion about the identity of the Old Hunter. If it really was a senior colleague appearing in such a story, it wouldnât hurt to look for commonalities.
And Emilyâs answer, in Fu Qianâs view, had some credibility.
Itâs not that he had much faith in her honesty; the reference point was her reaction.
As soon as the words were out, Emily looked even more uneasy, yet not quite uneasy enough.
The increased unease was because the question was obviously more absurd, raising the suspicion of her identity.
And the insufficient unease showed she hadnât directly determined she was the Administrator.
To some extent, this inversely proves that the mentioned content shouldnât be an experience both she and he have had.
Am I really a special one, and not just anyone can enter Full Moon Garden?
From the first mission, thereâs a notable connection with the moon.
"You can leave."
The level of satisfaction was comparable to just finishing a zodiac fortune telling, Fu Qian didnât forget to keep his promise and casually indicated Emily could leave.
And the hit Tina, at that moment, just opened her mouth, finally not expressing any objections.
"Iâll be back."
Emily fared no better than her, coldly standing over there, at a certain point in the unchanged posture, she seemed to evoke thoughts of a shadowy Predator ready to pounceâbut after all, she didnât leap out.
Finally choosing to leave behind a classic line, she walked past Fu Qian swiftly and left.
Fu Qian also tactfully just watched her depart without following.
...
"You just let her go like that?"
In the blink of an eye, the missing girl was gone again, and after a bout of oppressive silence, Tina finally couldnât hold back, expressing confusion over Fu Qianâs behavior.
"Didnât you hear her say she would be back... so we just need to fully focus on finding Dennis next."
Fu Qian wasnât bothered, claiming the current situation looked promising.
So much so that, even as he spoke, he was already heading outside.
"Are you really going to handle it like that? Do you believe the hospital would do such a thing?"
With her features scrunched up, Tina ultimately followed begrudgingly, seemingly unable to accept that even the new officer believed in such conspiracy.
"In my view, that possibility canât be ruled out, but whether itâs really handled that way, we have to find your uncle first."
And Fu Qianâs next words sounded slightly more credible.
Despite the hospitalâs credibility being questionable, he hadnât forgotten he was just a rookie on his first day of fieldwork.
"I believe Huck wonât agree with you doing that."
Feeling relieved that the situation hadnât completely spiraled out of control, Tina seemed to have great faith in her uncle.
"That might not be true. If the girl is also not found, we can just surmise she went somewhere else, now that Emily is around."
Fu Qian shook his head, unwilling to agree.
"Moreover, weâve already investigated several places consecutively, even Ed hasnât seen her, Huck might be getting impatient, who knows."
Ed?
"You even went to Rachelâs house?"
That last sentence clearly sounded odd, causing Tina to gasp.
"Huck might still be there."
Fu Qian nodded.
...
Tina clearly didnât believe Huck would go to someoneâs house just to inquire about this matter.
However, hesitant to speak further, the two left the mausoleum-like building, and Rachelâs figure appeared in their view.
She truly kept her word and waited here, yet saying certain topics in front of her seemed impolite.
"Youâre back, any discoveries?"
Despite standing firm, Rachel appeared rather uncomfortable, equally relieved at the moment.
"Yes, donât you have any?"
However, Fu Qian immediately asked her in return.
"Ah? Discoveries... Iâve been right here, didnât see anything."
Rachel looked puzzled.
This...
"A little girl just came out, didnât you notice?"
Tina almost shivered, speaking with a noticeably paler complexion.
"No..."
Now Rachel also turned pale.
"Relax, maybe she just didnât come out and is hiding somewhere secretly."
Yet Fu Qian waved his hand, signaling not to think too much.
Although his suggested possibility didnât sound much better.
"But it does remind me, when I go to find Huck, itâs best to have someone watching here."
Fu Qian clearly wasnât concerned about the impression they had, and quickly continued speaking of his plan.
"I... I can try to find someone to help watch."
Tina immediately sensed she ought to contribute, but the earlier events made her hesitantly decide to call for help.
"No hurry, front or back?"
However, Fu Qian didnât directly accept this suggestion. Instead, next moment he had a shiny coin in his hand.
"And you."
Displaying it on his open palm, he gestured toward Rachel beside him.
...
Ah... me?
Rachel clearly hadnât anticipated her work wasnât done; she remained wide-eyed and silent.
"What kind of madness are you on, whatâs that got to do with her? Isnât it just right to have her take you home?"
Thankfully, Tinaâs strong sense for justice quickly responded, chastising Fu Qianâs playful actions.
"She clearly isnât eager to go home."
Only giving Rachel a glance, Fu Qian remained calm.
...
Briefly speechless, Tina couldnât resist looking over, indicating Rachel to slightly fight for her rights.
Yet the latter averted her gaze, really didnât speak up.
"...Then Iâll choose heads."
The development finally made Tina feel a moment of weariness, pausing briefly before quickly choosing.
"Very well, then youâre tails."
Fu Qian was satisfied with the efficiency, sweeping his gaze over the silent Rachel, next moment he was already tossing upward.
As expected, both involved parties kept their gaze fixed on the rolling coin.
So can you see such a scene?
Grasping the coin, Fu Qian thought of his competitorâs current stance.
