Ethan Cross had been leading the search for Sophie Wexler ever since receiving the order from Cillian Forrest.
Back when the Marshal was hiding his identity, he had wondered what would happen if his cover was ever blown.
At first, he thought Miss Wexler would be furious. But as he watched her and the Marshal grow closer, he began to think she probably wouldn't be that angry.
But as it turned out, he had been thinking too simply.
This was more than just anger!
She'd completely skipped town!
Having failed to find her, Ethan Cross hesitated in front of the Marshal's door for a long time.
'Should I go in now? The Marshal won't take it out on me, will he?'
Just as he was hesitating, a voice came from inside.
"Come in."
Ethan Cross was speechless.
'He knew I couldn't hide anything from him.' he thought.
Ethan Cross pushed the door open and walked in, his head bowed. "Marshal, we still haven't found Miss Wexler."
