Day Seventy-Six…
~~*****~~
[ At Towerville Central Mall… ]
As part of his prior deal with 'Sizzling August', Spade was meeting Black Rose today together with Alexander and Hanabi. Alexander had no idea about this meet-up. Spade just brought him to the mall, pretending to be strolling there for no particular reason. He was afraid that Alexander would decline this meet-up if he mentioned it directly.
"Alex, why don't we buy some food first? I got tired from walking around. I still can't find the items I need for my laptop repair." Spade made up some alibi so that he could bring Alexander to the Mall's restaurant where they were supposed to meet Black Rose (Cherry) and Hanabi.
"Sure," Alexander agreed instantly, clueless of Spade's real motive.
