The lobby of the Valor Tower was as glamorous and quietly oppressive as its exterior — so much so that Sunny and Effie, the only two people not wearing smart business suits here, looked woefully out of place.
Effie was stunning enough to turn heads, but her lackadaisical athleisure ensemble seemed too casual and sloppy… as for Sunny, his cheap, nondescript cop clothes looked outright shabby and inappropriate in this grandiose temple to money and power.
Nevertheless, both carried themselves with absolute confidence, as if they owned the place, which only brought them more attention.
'Here we go.'
Walking over to the vast reception desk, Sunny showed his badge to the nearest receptionist.
"Detective Sunless and Detective Athena of Mirage PD. We are here to meet Mr. Mordret."
