"If you use your skill in a place like this, you don't know who might see you."
Well, judging by your position, you are already in the middle of the room. Why not move to the corner a little bit to minimize the possibility of unintentional eavesdropping?
I wonder, in many series, including this one, they always create scenes in the middle of the room where everyone is watching. It is like a play stage. Oh wait, probably they intentionally make it that way.
Makes sense to me. Twenty years ago I learned the ambiguous "The door was unlocked when I got there."
Another example is "The new mayor's wife is pretty." We do not know if "new" refers to the mayor or the wife.
That is why we can adopt an OOP
1 approach, such as
mayor.wife.new = "pretty";
or
mayor.new.wife = "pretty";
, which provides more clarity. In the first, "new" refers to the wife, and in the second, "new" refers to the mayor.
