Professional Paparazzi and Dog-Headed Online Troll

"Sit," John ordered simply, and the dog immediately sat down obediently. It tilted its head and watched its master walk to the bed and pick up a phone from the nightstand.

This wasn't a smartphone that was being used widely this year, but an old brand, Nokia.

John recognized it.

After he was locked up in the black room, Luke had given him a memo to memorize.

According to the memo, this Nokia brick was a once-off communication device.

When John woke up, he had to call Luke to confirm that he hadn't been thrown into the ocean halfway to feed the fish.

John called the number.

The phone rang for five seconds before the call was picked up.

Luke was having lunch, and it was Alfred who picked up.
