Qin Shuli checked on the animals in his Space. Fortunately, they had all adapted well and were not too frightened to graze. After petting the two large dogs, he vanished and reappeared in the guard room of the dungeon.
He was surprised to find no other prisoners in the dungeon besides the unconscious He Ping. In reality, the situation was quite simple: Qin Shuli’s two previous strikes against the Secrecy Bureau had left all the agents in a state of unease. With their own lives in jeopardy, no one had the heart to go out and capture anyone. After Ma Hanshan took over as the Beiping Station chief, he maintained an attitude of just scraping by, and had it not been for Wu Fa bringing He Ping in, the staff of the Interrogation Section and the dungeon would have practically been out of a job.
Qin Shuli unlocked the cell door and hoisted He Ping onto his shoulder to head out. Since he had arrived just as Wu Fa was heading to the dungeon, the auxiliary buildings and bungalows had not been cleared. To avoid exposing himself, he circled the auxiliary building while carrying He Ping, confirmed that everyone was fast asleep, then jumped over the backyard wall to leave the Secrecy Bureau.
