Ground floor of the store.
A pile of tripwires and hooks were on the floor. The shelves on the walls were empty. Even the decorated reception desk had vanished.
Lee was going through the files and records kept in the strongroom adjacent to the manager's cabin. All the files were about mundane transactions. Lee could not find anything particularly mysterious. He had swept through the floor without leaving a nook and corner.
[Looks like they have nothing as you expect. Then why are you searching?!]
'Yes…..maybe I am overthinking.'
Lee closed the file and placed it over the table. He heaved a sigh as he walked out of the room. Lee took a glance at the status and it was almost 4 in the morning. Lee can tell that his cue to escape is nearing.
[Only a few minutes and the shift will change.]
Lee nodded and levitated himself. He flew up to the circular glass window and sat right behind it. A few minutes later, the notification he anticipated came up.
