In an empire border city, inside a supermarket besides the entrance highway.
Seeing two young people being shoved into the alley by Imperial soldiers, the supermarket owner behind the counter shook his head, speaking in the imperial language:
"Ah, how many times has this happened now?"
A clerk nearby, wearing an apron and moving merchandise around, replied: "Boss, should I go check it out quietly?"
"That guy hasn't come out yet, do you think something happened?"
"Hey! Don't go stirring up trouble." The supermarket owner quickly held back the clerk.
"But, what if some life was lost?" The clerk scratched his head. "It happened right next to us; couldn't it cause us some problems?"
After hearing his words, the supermarket owner gave it a thought and bit his teeth:
"Hmm... alright then, go have a look, but do it quietly."
"Understood."
The clerk quickly put down the merchandise and surreptitiously slid over to the corner beside the fruit stand, slightly peeking out.
