"Good evening, Captain Liu Feng and esteemed guests. I apologize for not being able to meet you in person."
The voice seemed to come from everywhere and nowhere at once, transmitted through hidden speakers around the room.
Liu Feng sat up straighter, his brow furrowing.
The voice was mechanical which made it difficult for him to understand who the other person was.
But from the information he collected, the base owner was a woman.
"My name is Boss Su, the one who oversees this base and its operations. I'm afraid I cannot reveal my face, my gender, or even my true identity for security reasons. As you can imagine, the world we live in now is fraught with danger, and my position puts me in a rather precarious situation."
The explanation was smooth, almost rehearsed. Liu Feng's initial disappointment at not meeting Su Jiyai in person turned into understanding.
