After several seconds, the woman suddenly dissolved into a swirling mass of black gas and vanished completely.
Lana exhaled in relief.
Mr. Crow muttered, "It would've been nice if this ghost were our assignment."
Lana laughed. "There's no such thing as easy."
At that moment, the elevator doors opened. Lana stepped out, walking toward the mission issuer's door and pressing the bell.
The moment the door clicked open, a man with an odd, round belly and an unshaved face appeared. The smile he gave her was meant to be polite, but to Lana it looked oily and unsettling.
Still, she maintained her calm and greeted him with a bright smile. "Are you Ezra?"
When Ezra nodded, Lana asked, "What is the mission?"
He gestured for her to come inside. Lana paused for a moment before entering. In that brief instant, she spoke to Mr. Crow through their link.
'If this man tries anything inappropriate, do you have enough psychic energy to throw him across the room? '
