Upon reaching the third district, someone was waiting for her: "Are you Nicholson Amos?"
Daisy Zane nodded her head.
"Come with me; the professor is free at the moment. I'll take you to him."
"Thank you."
"No need to be polite. You're our savior." The boy led her to an office.
Daisy Zane stood at the entrance for two seconds, then knocked on the door, and pushed it open after waiting for a while.
As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Kevin Clark, who was inside... eating.
He was wearing a white lab coat, with a mask hanging on one ear.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Kevin Clark looked up. His usually sharp eyes became unexpectedly gentle, but it was done in such a haste that the softness didn't fully come through.
Their eyes met, and they both froze for an instant.
Then... Daisy Zane looked around the office, made sure no one else was there, and closed the door again.
