Jake and John finally made it out of the ruin. They walked out of the compound the same way they entered. The sun had gone past the center of the sky, meaning it was past noon already.
"I'll go meet with our higher-ups about the egg, and I'll tell you what they say or the conclusion," John said.
"That's fine, but I want to know about that man we saw in the tower. His mouth was stitched for some reason—I want to know why," Jake said.
"Oh yeah, that's something to ask about. You can ask Peter about that," John said.
"Peter?" Jake asked.
"Oh yeah, the kid you saw yesterday night—that's him. He should know some things in regard to that issue," John said. "He should still be inside the cellar."
"Thank you then, I'll be on my way," Jake said. They went their separate ways. He headed back to the bar.
Jake arrived back at the bar. He pushed the door open and walked in. The bar had a lot of customers now, unlike in the morning—people drinking and chatting.
