Chapter 1690: You're younger

"We're still in the Red District, but on another street."

Dean looked back at Atlas and continued, "At least we're not in the same row as the nightclub we came in."

"No wonder that guy just disappeared no matter where I looked when I followed him," he hissed, shaking his head as everything he'd been thinking began to unravel. "Clever, and I hate to admit that."

Atlas mostly ignored him as he casually sat on the edge of the bed, not wasting a second in compiling all the photos and evidence he gathered and sending them to the rightful recipients.

"What are you doing?" Dean frowned. "That can wait."

"It can, but I can't."

"Tsk." Dean clicked his tongue once more, shoved his hands into his pockets, and then scanned the room. After a second, he smacked his lips and took a step forward. "Well, now that we're out, I guess this is where we part ways."

"I didn't have fun," he added as he walked past Atlas, waving at the man without looking back. "But surely, it's a night I'll never forget until I get dementia."

But then, just as Dean reached for the door, Atlas's voice stopped him.

"I don't think it's safe to go out for now."

"Huh?" Dean looked back at Atlas, who was still busy with his phone and not looking in his direction. "What do you mean? We're already out, and we're not even on the same street as the club."

"And search protocols also widen their range when they can't find their targets."
