Noir looked at the crowd clamouring outside the car and closed his eyes, reaching out with his senses. He realised that there wasn't any malice within the crowd here…the real malicious people were probably waiting for them inside. Most of these people were either curious, or harboured positive feelings.
Noir opened his eyes and turned to Solis. "We should step out of the car and wave at the gathered crowd," he said. "There are many people who wish you well here."
Solis blinked. "You can sense malicious intent?" he asked curiously.
Noir nodded. "A good wish, or a blessing never goes to waste," he murmured, remembering his Master's words from a long time ago. "You will gather a lot of goodwill if interact a little with the crowd now." He patted Solis's arm. "And even if someone here is a master at hiding their malintent, I'm here to protect you."
"All right, then," Solis agreed easily, instructing the driver to stop the car.
