On the other person's face, there was a faint smile, which involuntarily calmed Neo down, stopping his wild thoughts.
"Neo, so it's you... I've been waiting for you for a long time."
L seemed very happy, rubbing his palms vigorously. After saying something that puzzled Neo, the young man coughed twice and raised a blank sheet of paper.
Neo was a bit confused. When he first entered, he had observed that there was clearly no paper on the table.
"As usual, I'll now ask a few... small questions."
Neo nodded, sitting upright and tense.
"Name."
"Neo."
"Age."
"38 years old."
"Old."
"?"
The young man smiled as he put down the paper. Only then did Neo notice that the sheet was blank, without any questions on it at all. Neo suddenly had the illusion of being tricked.
