“I didn’t see them, but on the way, I encountered Strelar, so I brought him back,” replied Chapman.
Nolan furrowed his brow. “What happened?”
“How did he manage to escape from Qin Lu?” Chapman couldn’t fathom how Strelar could have slipped away from Qin Lu’s grasp. If he was released, it must be a trick.
“Strelar said he wasn’t caught; he accidentally triggered a distress signal while fleeing,” explained Chapman. “Master, unsure if we should kill him since he wasn’t caught, I brought him back for your decision.”
Chapman still had some sympathy for Strelar due to their past camaraderie, despite his current semi-mechanized state. He didn’t want to see Strelar dead, but he obeyed Nolan’s orders, intending to give Strelar another chance.
“I see,” said Nolan, his eyes deep, hiding his emotions. “Since Strelar wasn’t caught, we’ll hold off on executing him for now. If he disobeys orders and leaves headquarters again, we can deal with him later.”
“Yes, Master,” Chapman breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, “Master, Strelar is outside. Would you like to see him?”
“No, let him go. He’s a nuisance for now,” Nolan dismissed. He didn’t have much patience for disobedient subordinates with only some utility.
Nolan decided to visit his junior sister today since he hadn’t seen her all day, hoping it would improve his mood. With a wave of his hand, he signaled for Chapman to leave.
Chapman respectfully bowed and left the room. Meanwhile, Qin Lu waited outside, casually activating the receiver he carried with him.
For this visit to the headquarters of the Seven Deadly Sins, Qin Lu brought with him Jun Lin’s latest disruptor, capable of disabling the Seven Deadly Sins’s defenses without leaving a trace.
Li Yuan and Zui Gui were waiting outside to assist. Once Qin Lu breached the Seven Deadly Sins’s defenses, they would swiftly survey the interior.
They planned to cooperate internally and externally, hoping to locate Nan Yan and extract her within the shortest possible time frame. After all, time was of the essence, and they aimed to complete their mission within seven days.
When Chapman emerged, he saw Qin Lu sitting in a chair, seemingly occupied with signaling. He approached Qin Lu.
“You should head back. The Master doesn’t want to see you. Be more careful in the future, and don’t anger the Master again. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you, ” Chapman advised.
Qin Lu kept the receiver and stood up naturally. “Then I’ll come see the Master when he’s ready to see me.”
Chapman nodded. “Alright.”
Qin Lu suddenly realized he didn’t know where Strelar lived. It wouldn’t be appropriate to wander around aimlessly; if someone bumped into him and he couldn’t even find his own residence, it would arouse suspicion.
“I just remembered I have some work left in the lab. I’ll head there first,” Qin Lu said.
“Suit yourself,” Chapman replied, turning his attention back to his own tasks and paying no further mind to Qin Lu..
