Ling Chen clasped his hands in salute to Qin Chuan, and without another word, immediately led Hu Fei and the others toward the bamboo forest.

He quickly approached it, wiped away the ash on the ground, and suddenly, a steel plate two meters long and one meter wide was revealed before him.

Ling Chen glanced around; there should have been surveillance cameras here. However, due to the fire, those devices had already been destroyed.
