Xiang Kun and Old Xia ran up to the rooftop terrace and set up a small table to place the laptop. They each took a seat on a small plastic stool and huddled together to discuss the information he had gleaned that night while watching the screen. The primary topic of discussion was the analysis of the dream content of the humanoid "mutant" he had sensed.
Xiang Kun already knew from Alice that the "human-shaped mutant" who was lingering underneath the Brilliant Fortune Building with Mr. Liang was named John. All that was known was that he came from Europe, entered the country irregularly, and his specific history and identity were not entirely clear.
