A little panicked, Samantha subconsciously asked, "What place is safe?"
Luke reminded her, "Buildings with entrances and exits that can be locked easily. Also, they have to be made of concrete. Wooden houses won't stop the spiders."
Samantha said, "What? Let me see… Right, the shopping center! The shopping center that the mayor put up is very solid."
Luke said, "That's good. Also, we may have to show our badges when we rescue the residents. You won't mind, will you?"
Samantha said without hesitation, "Not at all. I give you permission to use weapons in order to ensure the safety of the residents."
Luke said, "Okay, stay in touch, and contact me if anything goes wrong." He then hung up the phone.
They left the fast food restaurant for their car.
There was only a last bit of dying light in the west. It was already dusk in the town.
