Chapter 2797 The Thirteenth Day Talk (Forty-Nine)

Lord Servis?

Although the voice came abruptly, being urged to update in the dark room seems reasonable for a columnist.

So at that moment, Fu Qian was not frightened at all; on the contrary, a name naturally came to mind.

Yes, the idea that a voice reflects a person may not be reliable, but this voice is simply too classic.

The voice wasn't very strong, but it was deep and surprisingly stable.

Based on the descriptions of the attending physician I had heard before, I could almost perfectly conjure up an image of someone who appears and disappears mysteriously, quietly observing from the shadows.

Not to mention that before the other party spoke, Fu Qian really didn't notice any other noises—not even now.

Instead of writing as invited, Fu Qian turned around and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

It was in a corner of the office, next to that huge medical cabinet.

The location is more than enough to hide someone, but the problem is that there's still no one in sight there.

Thump, thump thump...

Thankfully, the other party didn't keep them in suspense any longer.

Under Fu Qian's gaze, he could clearly hear the sound of fingers tapping on the wooden board.

Indeed, this is why people cannot have habitual thinking.

Just because the hidden compartment in the front of the safe is so obvious doesn't mean there aren't hidden compartments in other less obvious places.

The meaning of the voice was very clear: it was actively reminding us that what followed was actually empty.

Someone is knocking on the barrier in front of them as if making a formal visit.

"Please come in."

While reflecting on his feelings, Fu Qian didn't keep people at arm's length and actually agreed.

……

Without a sound, there was no further movement from behind the wall.

Even when a shadow deepens, as if a section of the wall has sunk inward.

It must be said that this design is quite ingenious, and it's no wonder that His Excellencies Servis and Moson were able to use it to appear and disappear mysteriously in the sanatorium.

Faced with such changes, Fu Qian was amazed and deeply impressed by the designer's wisdom.

Yes, the secret door there had been opened wide without anyone noticing, and the noise was even quieter than the door itself.

The downside is that it's darker in the depths, making it harder to spot anything inside—snap!

it's OK now.

With a soft click, Fu Qian had already flipped the switch on the wall.

The slightly dim light illuminated the black box for a moment... and of course, the compartments inside the black box as well.

What followed was a long, thin face, a large, curved nose, and two round glasses.

Faced with the sudden, blinding light, the figure did not rush to move.

As they glanced around, the reflection from their lenses even made it difficult to see their eyes clearly.

Is this Lord Servis?

It has to be said that it fits the stereotype quite well, with a touch of cold professionalism, yet also a strange stubbornness and fervor.

At least for the chronicler, Mr. Mo Song, it's hard to imagine that someone could have such energy and spirit.

As for why it is said that he and Servis relied on such secret passages and mechanisms to appear and disappear mysteriously in the sanatorium.

It's quite simple. One was the original owner of this place, and the other is the current controller. It's perfectly normal for them to have some understanding of this special arrangement. Furthermore, it's best not to add physical entities unless absolutely necessary. Once this assumption holds true, even the old man who recorded the events earlier has a scientific explanation, so we can temporarily refrain from introducing other extraordinary elements.

That's my spot.

Unfortunately, Fu Qian's thoughtfulness seemed to go unappreciated. After staring at him for a moment, the figure in the dark compartment immediately criticized him for being impolite.

"It's really nice to sit here."

Fu Qian didn't seem to mind. Hearing this, he looked at his hand and said that it was indeed quite comfortable to sit here.

That's right. While flipping through his notes, he naturally found a seat behind his desk.

Coupled with the "Please come in" sign, the feeling of someone usurping another's place is indeed quite strong.

……

"You really are different. So you were waiting for me up ahead?"

Despite being in the wrong, he was still defiant. Fu Qian's reaction clearly made the other party realize that there was no need to talk about shame or anything like that with the person in front of him.

Selvis, who immediately proved his identity, was not annoyed at all; instead, he seemed to become even more interested in the intruder.

"Yes, considering you were a little late, I just grabbed a book to read."

Before giving his answer, he showed no humility whatsoever, holding up the notebook in his hand and even offering a plausible excuse for his actions.

It wasn't just empty boasting; he wasn't in a hurry to test the performance of the Abyss Notes.

From the initial door-opening test, it was assumed that Selvis was watching the entire process, and the black box concept was ineffective against him.

Under these circumstances, he went into the office, opened the safe, and even looked at the notes inside... He had offended everyone he could.

The balance is very delicate. From Fu Qian's perspective, continuing to write in the notebook doesn't actually offend Selvis.

On the contrary, that might be content the other party wants to see, and it's best to have them pay to unlock it.

You must learn to put yourself in other people's shoes and think from their perspective.

Imagine facing such an uncivilized intruder who is about to completely disrupt your plans. What would the attending physician first want to do?
It's very simple; at least figure out what the intruder is thinking.

The other person's reaction to the notes, and even what they write in the notes, are all very meaningful references.

In fact, it's better to do this sooner rather than later.

After all, things are getting out of control but not completely out of control, so theoretically there is still room for maneuver.

Unless Selvis really doesn't mind letting the director succeed, figuring out what the intruder wants as soon as possible and seizing the window of opportunity is a normal way to maximize profits.

Of course, maximizing profits is just one option. The other party is also free to be less rational and follow suit, which I fully understand.

But these days, harmony brings wealth. As the younger generation, we should know when to stop and show a cooperative attitude, which is a basic courtesy.

……

"Oh? So what did you find out from that?"

As it turns out, being kind to others has once again proven effective.

Faced with the shameless explanation in front of him, the attending physician hesitated for a moment, then actually walked out from behind the wall step by step.

He didn't even seem to mind, and went straight ahead to sit down opposite the desk, chatting with Fu Qian about his reading experiences as if he were a visitor.

"I spotted someone I know, even though she might not recognize me."

With such a good start, Fu Qian was naturally pleased and immediately patted his notebook to tell the truth.

"Lasik?"

Selvis didn't pretend to be stupid either. He glanced at Fu Qian's hand and even let out a sigh.

"I am actually very sorry for what happened to her."
