After having reported back to Hina in the morning, despite her protests, I headed to the rendezvous point in the Rote Shopping Mall. Despite it being a weekday, there were still a lot of shoppers as the Christmas drew near. I headed straight to the location given to me. Punctual.
As the voice over the phone said, there was a black sedan parked exactly on the predetermined parking spot. I reached the car and opened the left side door of the backseat, and got in.
On my right sat a man in suit, but it didn't fit him well. He looked like he would be more comfortable wearing a military uniform than a suit and a tie.
"Put this on," the man said and handed me a blindfold.
I put on the seatbelt and covered my eyes.
The driver, whoever it was, started the car and we were immediately on our way.
