While the men filed into a boardroom, Reed crossed to a guard. She bowed her eyes before him despite the fact that she could tap him on the temple with his own weapon before he blinked. Customs should be observed. She had a role to play after all.
The guard's still expression shifted into surprise when the woman spoke naturally fluent Chinese. "Duì bù qǐ, cèsuǒ zài nǎr?"
He blinked at her and pointed across the lobby. She followed his line of sight to a hallway with the sign for toilet was posted. She nodded understanding and for once in her life, was sincerely grateful for his help. She told him as much: "xiè xiè nǐ de bāng zhù."
She felt his eyes follow her until she disappeared down the hallway. She was, of course, not actually going to the bathroom.
