On the outskirts of K city, in a villa near the seaside.
Around fifty to sixty people gathered in the hall, sitting, standing or lying around, the common factor was that they were all glued to their phones, either engaged in a game or scrolling through forums.
At one moment, a handful of them suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"The Lamplighter has appeared!"
On the sofa, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader's eyes brightened, eagerly asking, "What's going on?"
"I don't know, he just popped out of nowhere!"
"He said, 'The Lamplighter is passing right in front of you' - maybe he didn't see us?"
"He must be here to rescue someone!"
...
The crowd had various answers as everyone else hurriedly looked at their phones. Indeed, they all saw similar notifications.
"Quick, get him - don't let him escape!" the middle-aged man hastily called out.
