The electronic lock emitted a soft "beep," and the security door slowly opened.
The pale light in the hallway pierced the darkness of the entryway like a spotlight, casting a long, narrow band of light on the wooden floor.
At the end of this band of light, a vague human silhouette was faintly visible.

This was supposed to be a hidden, unknown safe house prepared for them by Station Chief Lou!
The two of them widened their eyes simultaneously, staring intently at the shadowy figure inside, completely overlooking the flashbang hanging inside the door handle.
