Duncan was telling the truth—he really did head to a shop near the Cross District to buy Nina a bicycle after saying goodbye to Sherry.
He also took care of something that had long been planned, but delayed due to various reasons, until today: opening a bank account for himself.

Of the five service windows, three were idle, and the employees, dressed in black uniforms, chatted behind them, while the bright electric light shone on the counter glass, casting a lazy halo.
