Now it was a test of Jimmy's observational skills. Even though the streets weren't as crowded as they were during the day, there were still quite a few people around, as well as homeless people settling down for rest. Jimmy had already spotted several lying down.
Something was off. Jimmy noticed a man up ahead who didn't seem like an ordinary pedestrian. His walking pace wasn't fast and didn't appear to have any particular movements, but his walking posture was awkward.
For most people, walking is a natural behavior dominated by long-standing habits. The body is relatively relaxed, swaying from top to bottom, arms swing habitually—even if hands are in pockets, the shoulders still tend to move.
The man Jimmy had his eye on seemed normal, but his upper body barely swayed, appearing controlled rather than natural. If you didn't pay close attention, you would just overlook him. He was just a few dozen meters in front of Jimmy, walking towards him.
