While they were clearing the stack of firewood above the cellar door as fast as they can, Sword Demon, who was moving the logs, said, "No one has moved them. I remember how it looked when we first stacked them."
Gu Fei stared at him. "We've only left not too long ago…"
"Can't afford to be careless," Sword Demon answered earnestly.
"Okay. Unlock it!" There was nothing wrong with being earnest, so Gu Fei did not say anything more. All he did was gesture for Svelte Dancer to begin her work with the lock.
It was time for the lockpicker, Svelte Dancer, that had come all the way over to show off her skill, to get to work. Her hand shot out and pushed Gu Fei to the side as she proudly said, "Make way. I'll get it open." That air of confidence she was showing made it seem as if she was here to defuse a timed bomb instead of picking the lock.
