“Bro, it’s your turn to act!”
Big-Faced Cat pointed at the password door in front of them:
“You’d better hurry up and crack the code! Once the main power is restored, the security system here will automatically sound the alarm!”
“Relax, I only need 10 seconds.”
“So awesome?!” Big-Faced Cat exclaimed in a cracked voice!
Henry Clark reached toward Big-Faced Cat’s lower back—
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Borrowing the C4.”
Henry Clark pressed the switch and stuck the C4 explosive onto the silver password door!
“Run!”
“Shift—”
BOOM!!!!!!!
BOOM!!!!!!!
BOOM!!!!!!!
The deafening explosions shattered their eardrums, countless bricks rained down, and the entire corridor was filled with swirling dust, a gray haze everywhere.
“Pah!”
Big-Faced Cat got up and spat out a mouthful of lime:
“So this is how you code experts crack passwords!? Where’s the ‘expert’ part now!?”
“Just admit it’s efficient or not.”
Henry Clark walked over from the other end of the corridor.
“How did you run so far? I just saw you flying on the wall!” Big-Faced Cat got up, looking at Henry Clark’s previous spot in shock.
“That’s called parkour.”
The dust settled.
The password door had long since disappeared, leaving a big hole in the black wall.
Big-Faced Cat darted inside, and Henry Clark followed.
Big-Faced Cat looked left and right...
Looked left and right...
Looked left and right...
“Where’s the money?”
“Who are you asking?”
“I’m asking you, where’s the money!!”
“I don’t know!”
“You told me there’d be piles of money here!! Piles of gold bars!!”
The warehouse was completely empty.
Except for the safes on the surrounding walls, there was nothing at all.
Big-Faced Cat went berserk!
He stepped forward, grabbed Henry Clark by the collar, and pressed a gun to Henry Clark’s temple, veins bulging!
“You freaking tricked me! You said there was money here! That’s the only reason I came with you!”
“I freaking didn’t say that!”
“I said it!”
A clear female voice came from behind.
Big-Faced Cat craned his neck to look behind Henry Clark—
Bang!!!
Henry Clark felt like a watermelon exploded on his shoulder, red juice splattering all over his face!
And some bits of bone fragments.
“Intense.”
Henry Clark wiped his ear, feeling his adrenaline surge.
He pushed aside Big-Faced Cat’s corpse, the air thick with the smell of blood.
In previous dreams, he’d been headshotted by snipers countless times, but as the saying goes, the onlooker sees clearly what the player is confused about—this was his first time experiencing a headshot up close.
Tap, tap, tap.
A woman walked over with light steps.
“Why did you trick Big-Faced Cat?” Henry Clark looked at the woman.
“What did I trick him about?”
“You told him there was money and gold bars here, but actually... your real goal was just the safes, right?”
“None of your business.”
The woman shot Henry Clark a glare:
“Go cool off somewhere else, don’t make me regret saving you.”
With that, the woman walked along the wall, inspecting the names on the safes one by one.
Henry Clark wiped his neck with his sleeve, only then recalling...
In yesterday’s dream, this woman had also shot Big-Faced Cat when he was about to kill him, saving his life.
Today, just now, it was also Big-Faced Cat holding a gun to his head, and the woman deliberately called out to distract Big-Faced Cat, then shot him.
Very strange.
He and she were neither relatives nor friends, hadn’t even met...
Why would a ruthless woman like her not only spare him, but even save him?
“Why did you save me?”
“None of your business.”
“You’re no fun to talk to like this!”
At that moment, the woman found her target—
A safe labeled 【Henry Clark】.
She tossed aside her small computer and started fiddling with the combination lock, ignoring Henry Clark.
“How about this, let’s make a deal.”
Henry Clark stepped forward:
“You tell me why you saved me, and I’ll help you open the safe. It’s a great deal for you.”
“Heh!”
The woman was amused:
“You really think just because you’re wearing an Ultraman mask, you’re a code expert too?”
“I can crack codes even easier than a code expert,” Henry Clark replied.
“Ridiculous! Why should I believe you?”
“Because...”
Henry Clark pulled the elastic band from the back of his head.
He took off the Ultraman mask.
He looked the woman straight in the eye:
“I am Henry Clark.”
Chapter 6 CC
“……”
“……”
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
“Actually...”
The woman broke the silence first:
“Ever since I saw you impersonating me in the square and getting in the car with Big-Faced Cat, I thought there was something wrong with your head.”
“So the misunderstanding is cleared up now?”
“Now I’m even more sure!”
Henry Clark spread his hands helplessly:
“So basically, you still don’t believe me, right? But since you came to steal the safe labeled 【Henry Clark】, you must have investigated Henry Clark, right? Don’t you know what he looks like?”
Henry Clark pointed at his own face:
