There were men and women, most of them captains from the Superpower Bureau. They were chatting and laughing, having apparently arranged to come train together.
Suddenly, their eyes met.
Lu Chao saw Xu Wei and several other elites from the East Port circle.
Even Captain Lin Yuan, who was also from Team Four, had joined them at some point.
The atmosphere fell silent as the newcomers' chatter and laughter died away.
Lin Yuan looked a little awkward. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but seemed to hold back and remained silent.
STEP, STEP!
Amid the footsteps, the captains from the East Port circle gave Lu Chao a dispassionate, once-over look, their expressions mostly dismissive as they walked past.
They exchanged no greetings, brushing past each other like strangers.
Finally.
Lu Chao entered the elevator alone, and the metal doors slid shut.
As the floor number on the display changed, Lin Yuan averted his gaze, a hint of unease in his eyes.
