When Quella Radcliffe left from her home, it was already past five in the afternoon.
There was less than an hour left before the Three Blade Group would come to ransom their man.
After instructing Aron Jackson to take Quella Radcliffe to her new home, Julius Reed hurried to West Lake pier with Aron Jackson.
West Lake pier used to be an important transport hub for Gonzalez City, but it gradually fell into disuse after the new pier was built.

Aron Jackson had already arranged for his men to hook up electric lights, so the inside of the warehouse wasn't dark.
