Chương 1251: Houston, we have a problem

Mike was going on a mission.

It was nothing unusual from what he used to do. He had walked into that building a million times before. 

This time, he could be walking into a trap. So far, he had not seen any sign that their enemies suspected anything. Still, he did not want to put his guard down.

"Hey, are you up to do this?" His partner tapped his shoulder, snapping him out of a trance.

Guiltily, he knew his focus should be on the task ahead. But somehow, his mind seemed to wander somewhere else, thinking of someone in particular.

"What?" He was slightly surprised, but glancing at his friend, he realized his situation. "Of course, I am ready." He rotated his neck and shoulders, relieving a tension building inside him.

As much as he wanted to act brave and unafraid, he knew he would be risking his life if he got caught. Therefore, he had to be cautious.
