The Illicitor's Code #1

118: Between Comfort and Duty

At night, Dim-Dim packed some warm clothes, his laptop, and wallet into his bag, preparing for his return to Safe City New Jersey. Justin, who had finished packing his things at some point, was playing a game on the bed, waiting for Dim-Dim to finish.

"Do you think I need to bring more clothes?" Dim-Dim asked Justin, who took almost a minute and a half to answer because he was too focused on the game.

"No, you're just planning to come back shortly and then return here. And it's your apartment; there are plenty of clothes there," Justin replied before diving back into the online game he was playing.

"You're right," Dim-Dim said, then he began to take out the clothes from his bag and laid them on the bed. He was about to return the clothes to the wardrobe when suddenly Tara stepped into the room. She looked at Justin, Dim-Dim standing in front of the wardrobe with a stack of clothes, and then at the open bag on the bed with a laptop and other items visible.<
