It was already 10:00 a.m when Erick and Elle arrived at a shopping mall in City Z.
They went directly to the department store and proceeded to the ladies' clothes section. Elle started roaming around and was checking out the clothes.
Erick just stood on the side observing her.
While waiting for Elle, Erick decided to call Captain Jason of the Task Force Eagle. The phone rang for fifteen seconds before it was answered.
"Hello." Jason's hoarse voice could be heard on the other line.
"Hello, Captain. This is me, Erick. Sorry to bother you right now. Just want to inform you that I couldn't report to the office this morning. I have some important matters to do right now. I hope you will understand. I'll come in the afternoon." Erick explained to Jason politely the purpose of calling him.
