Emma Benson thought again of Tara Summer, wanted to call her, but hesitated in the end.
She still wanted to be alone, so she took a taxi back to the airport and bought a ticket to Hong Kong, planning to go there to relax.
The flight was very punctual, took off an hour later, and from Night City to Hong Kong took about three hours. When the plane landed, it was already near evening.
The sunset dipped below the horizon like blood; Emma Benson walked into the arrival hall, where the crowd waiting was like a tide. Watching the people beside her happily meet their families, Emma Benson was touched.
Bump—the reason being she was deep in thought, Emma Benson didn't notice the person ahead, and collided head-on, stepping on the other's heel.
"Ah, sorry..." She snapped back to reality and immediately apologized.
The person turned around—it was a young Chinese woman in a black dress, wearing sunglasses. She glanced at Emma Benson, took off her glasses, and said, "It's okay."
