Chapter 1069 - 422: A Hidden World in an Old Building
Richard felt a familiar force lifting his collar.
Just as he was about to exclaim, he instantly felt a change in the pressure from the large hand behind him, as if something stroked his neck.
Suddenly, his voice didn’t obey him, and the words he was about to say got stuck in his throat.
This is real bullying to the extreme.
Richard complained in his heart, then raised his handsome eyebrows high with surprise and some puzzlement, looking towards the instigator of all this, Zhang Beixing.
Zhang Beixing saw the confused look in Richard’s eyes and even reached out his big hand in a comforting manner, patting Richard’s shoulder.
"Don’t worry, I just pressed your voiceless pressure point, it’ll be fine in a bit."
Seeing Zhang Beixing’s carefree expression, Richard felt deeply aggrieved and somewhat anxious.
Back in the Federation Clan, many people went to great lengths just to have a few words with him, but now, having said nothing, he had his voiceless point pressed right off the bat.
Richard pointed to his mouth with his finger, waving his hands as if expressing a strong protest.
But did Zhang Beixing give him any chance to resist?
He directly hoisted Richard by the collar, off they went.
The man with the black hat, black sunglasses, and brown trench coat watched as Zhang Beixing lifted Richard, then with a point of his toe like Spider-Man, he darted to the railing of a building.
The man’s eyes widened round, marveling at it.
"These rich people sure have their thrills."
With Zhang Beixing’s skills, doing such stealth reconnaissance and clandestine activities is like child’s play.
But with Zhang Beixing’s usual strength, there’s no need to employ such tactics, most foes needing reconnaissance can’t withstand a single strike from him.
In midair, Zhang Beixing aimed at a window, flicked it with his finger, and the window obediently opened as if there were a guard residing inside.
Zhang Beixing directly leaped in with Richard.
Thanks to the training Richard underwent while Zhang Beixing descended the mountain, he was somewhat adapting to this novel mode of travel.
At least now, Richard’s body was no longer trembling, he even had some spare mind to observe the surroundings, though he still clung tightly to Zhang Beixing’s side.
The somewhat old building had quite large windows, effortlessly allowing Zhang Beixing to enter the hallway with Richard in tow.
Zhang Beixing held a strand of True Qi in his hand, planning to obliterate any unlucky guards or cameras they might encounter upon entering.
But apparently, such concerns were unnecessary.
The hallway was extremely quiet, Zhang Beixing looked around and found that while the outside of the building was under tight surveillance, the inside was unexpectedly relaxed, not even a token camera was present.
It seemed as though to facilitate some unspeakable activities.
While Zhang Beixing was observing the surroundings, he occasionally felt his arm being vigorously patted twice.
Zhang Beixing looked down following the force.
He found Richard still in his hand, continuously patting his arm with a face full of anxiety, but unable to utter a sound.
At this moment, Zhang Beixing remembered he still had a living person in his hand.
He gently placed Richard on the ground, ignoring Richard’s resentful gaze.
Zhang Beixing then began perceiving the surrounding environment.
The entire building was enveloped by Zhang Beixing’s perception in an instant.
The whole building structure clearly appeared in Zhang Beixing’s mind in a flash.
Neither the intimate couple on the southeastern top floor nor the long-legged woman bathing upstairs were Zhang Beixing’s focus.
At this moment, Zhang Beixing’s attention was focused on the current floor, and with a moment of perception, he discovered the issue within.
From the outside, this old building appeared entirely normal, except for this floor where all the walls seemed to be exceptionally reinforced, the materials inside likely expensive soundproofing substance.
Moreover, there were many activities in the other floors, likely people interacting there.
Yet this floor was empty, only the northwest side had two presences.
And one of those presences seemed to be trembling continuously, fearing something?
This was obviously very abnormal. If it’s a club, why would there be only two people and go to great lengths to install these soundproofing materials.
Zhang Beixing meticulously examined the entire hallway.
The walls throughout the hallway were extraordinarily new, covered with intricately patterned wallpaper, all window sills adorned with expensive wood and finely crafted stone carvings.
Even the floor was covered with thick carpet.
In such an old building, it was like a hidden paradise.
The entire floor had only two presences in the northwest corner, so Zhang Beixing didn’t need to seek further, Peter must be there.
Judging from the building style here, it was undoubtedly a place owned by a wealthy person specifically for clandestine activities.
Besides the Alba Clan, Zhang Beixing couldn’t think of anyone else with such power.
Now that the target location was determined, Zhang Beixing strode towards the northwest corner of the floor.
While still observing the surrounding environment, Richard, who had a thoughtful look on his face, saw Zhang Weixing had already set off, and after a moment’s daze, hurried to follow.
He didn’t possess Zhang Beixing’s skills; in a place like this where danger could arise at any moment, staying close to Zhang Beixing was the safest option.
Fortunately, the ground was covered with thick plush carpet, which not only provided a soft and comfortable feel underfoot but also greatly ensured silence when walking.
