Regit, despite his age, hadn't become forgetful enough to leave his door unlocked.
He Ao's gaze shifted downward, eyeing the handle of the door in front of him. The smart anti-theft lock was intact and seemed to have been hacked.
The apartment Regit rented was cheap and narrow, and the smart lock wasn't sophisticated, so it being hacked wasn't unusual. The residents here generally didn't possess valuables that needed protection from thieves.
He Ao thought for a moment, but didn't move forward. Instead, he gently pushed the door open and stood to the side, leaning against the wall beside the door.
The old security door creaked open slowly, with no reaction from inside.
He Ao waited a moment, ensuring no sounds emerged before he slowly edged out a leg, then his body, and finally his head,
Still no reaction.
He Ao frowned slightly and then he cautiously entered the room.
Bang—
The sound of a window suddenly being thrown open echoed.
