Taking a cursory glance towards his surroundings, he registered the stark white building, with the armed guards patrolling and 2-meter high electric fence perimeter around it, providing a bulwark against any possible threat. Ace gave a slight frown, thinking 'This may be a tough one.'Then, he realized its weakness, that it had no barbed wire on the top of the fence, and smiled.
