By six o'clock in the evening, the lights were just coming on, illuminating Bird City in a dazzling display.
Although night had fallen upon the city, its bustle did not fade with the onset of darkness. The streets remained as lively as ever with a steady stream of vehicles and pedestrians. For this city, there was little difference between day and night.
Taxi Peng A34759 was still navigating the streets and alleyways of Bird City, but its driver was unaware that he had been followed for over an hour.
Around half past six, the taxi pulled over to the curb. To be precise, it stopped in front of a residential area, where a middle-aged man in his forties stood with a teacup in hand.
The driver got out of the car, reached into his pocket for a Cigarette, and offered one to the middle-aged man on the curb before they struck up a conversation.
