If it hadn't been for Kenneth's pinpoint accuracy, Everett would've been casting a wide net in the search, likely starting from the out-of-the-way places before gradually moving closer to downtown. Or even if he had started from downtown and worked his way outward, such a neither-here-nor-there location would have given Lane enough time to move the antidote.
I had thought he just stumbled upon Quincy and cooked up the antidote as a trump card to hold over me and Everett.
Turns out, Lane was loaded for bear!
Without Quincy, things might not have gone as smoothly for him, but he was always waiting for his moment.
Thinking about it, this situation might not be so bad after all!
What if Lane, unable to find his moment, got desperate and went for Everett with a knife?
At least now, there's room to maneuver.
"Ma'am, would you mind showing me the house?" Dorothy asked, noticing her surprise and quickly pulling out some bills from her bag. "This is for your trouble. I don't want to overpay, you know? Just say I'm a relative of yours looking to buy a house, okay?"
The old lady seemed ready to refuse, but the sight of money quickly changed her mind.
"Alright, alright! You young folks sure are sharp. I've lived here for over a decade, know all the neighbors. If you find something you like, I can help you get a good deal!"
"Thank you." Dorothy watched as she pocketed the money, then cheerfully led the way.
Having such a long-term resident by her side meant Dorothy didn't have to worry about drawing too much attention.
