Left alone, Kevin took a look around and, to his surprise, noticed another increase in security personnel. The crowd was becoming more aware of them, unlike before, and they had good reason to, given the large high-tech guns in their hands. What's more, they seemed active, emitting Qi that Kevin could perceive.
'What's the deal with them?' Kevin pondered suspiciously as the sudden increase in security seemed too abrupt. Just as he was contemplating the reason, one of the soldiers approached him and asked, "Ticket and ID, please."
Kevin was surprised but quickly caught on, pulling out a pin with the logo of Emporium and handing it to the soldier. "There are more guards than usual. Is everything okay?"
