When Chen Lun returned to Number 7 Denton Street, it was already late into the night.
The Purple Moon was obscured by drifting clouds, dimming the light.
He dimly made out a petite figure standing in front of the stairway.
"You're back."
A familiar ethereal voice drifted over.
Upon hearing the voice, Chen Lun realized the person waiting for him here was Floey.
"Haven't you slept yet? Standing here waiting for me?"
Chen Lun replied, then added with a light chuckle,
"Let's go, head upstairs to rest."
Floey quietly stood in the darkness without speaking, merely giving him a slight smile.
"Mhm."
Floey followed Chen Lun upstairs, returning to the room on the fourth floor.
As soon as he opened the door, Chen Lun saw a furry creature pouncing toward him.
"Hey! It's you again, you dog!"
Chen Lun exclaimed in surprise.
It had been dark outside, and he hadn't paid much attention, but it appeared this fellow was a black-and-white Border Collie.
