Keith stood beside me quietly while I held the guards' profiles in my hands.

Most of them were married with kids, had elderly parents, and had honest and trustworthy-looking features. However, the things that had happened to me had long since taught me that looks could be deceiving.

"Smart people remain smart." I could see the solemn expression on Keith's face from the corners of my eyes. "Since he enjoys taking photos so much, I'll let him get as many as he wants." My eyes narrowed, and a dangerous light glinted in them when I finished speaking.
