The talk of Paris expanding wasn't new. The narrow alleyways and tightly packed buildings cast shadows everywhere, driving citizens away from the sunless streets and towards the outskirts.

Claude Veil stopped by a tavern on Clichy Street, which also served as a restaurant, to take care of his dinner. He had just finished a week-long mission in the outskirts of the city, in the Serge region, and after changing shifts with other squad members, he had received a day's leave for the next day.
