Er Dan chewed, but its eyes darted around everywhere, as if it wasn't trapped but was surveilling everyone.
Hidden in the shadows, someone who wanted to observe if Er Dan had any special traits nudged their companion.
"What do you think this bird's background is? It doesn't seem special, so why did the higher-ups order round-the-clock surveillance?"
"How should I know? If I knew, would I be standing here watching this bird with you?"
Their voices were low, and logically, only they should have been able to hear what was said.
But somehow, it seemed like the bird glanced at them when they spoke.
Just then, the defensive array associated with Moonlight City was triggered.
Er Dan watched as rings of fluorescence lit up above the nearby pond.
It looked quite beautiful, but anyone or any creature caught by these lights would be in trouble.
Especially since Er Dan had seen similar lights before.
