Gabriel put away his phone just as the interrogating officer walked in.

The officer frowned at him and demanded his phone before asking in a cold voice, "Name?"

Another officer was seated at a computer, ready to pull up the man's identity records.

Gabriel leaned back in his chair, calmly stating, "Gabriel Carnes."

As the officer typed the name into the system, his record came up blank. He frowned, suspecting a typo, when suddenly a warning box popped up on the screen. After entering a password, information about Gabriel Carnes began to appear, though not in its entirety-much of it was restricted due to confidentiality.

Even the limited information on display was enough to make the records officer's eyes widen. He stood up abruptly.

The other officer, curious, glanced over, and his stern expression slowly dissolved into one of respect as he, too, stood up and gave Gabriel the highest form of salute. "Please, wait a moment!"

Both officers looked nervously at Gabriel as they backed out of the room.
