Due to a landslide, their arrival was delayed until midday.

By then, the sun was at its zenith, casting a radiant glow through the clouds. Amidst this bright, splendid sunlight, Zoe and I greeted Roz Town’s third batch of residents.
This final group was the largest and brought some chaos, yet Riley caught our eyes immediately.
Dressed in a light purple blouse and a white skirt with a side slit, Riley’s elegance and grace were unmistakable.

“Riley!” Overwhelmed with happiness, I quickly embraced Riley in a warm hug.
Zoe came along. Being less inclined towards overt displays of affection, she simply greeted, “Riley, welcome.”
Riley, ever thoughtful, took Zoe’s hand warmly, expressing, “It’s wonderful to see both of you, Debra, Zoe!”
Her gaze was tender, reminiscent of a nurturing mother, as she Looked us over. Curiously, she asked, “It’s been a while since we last met.
How have both of you been?”
I replied, “We’ve had our hands full with various happenings. It’s been busy, but overall, we’re managing alright.”
Riley let out a gentle sigh. “I’ve caught wind of some issues within the Thorn Edge Pack. Being physically distant and tied up with matters in Roz Town, I couldn’t offer my support. You both must be exhausted.”
“It’s okay,” Zoe remarked, brushing it off casually. “The workload at the police station was heavier. The recent events have been relatively easy.”

Riley responded with a soft smile.
As we reminisced, the residents had disembarked from the buses, laden with belongings, appearing somewhat anxious and disoriented.
Although it was the entrance to the Roz District, it was still quite a distance from the residential buildings. It would’ve been inconvenient for the residents to carry their luggage themselves.
To reassure them, I approached and said, “No need to worry, folks.
I’ve arranged for vehicles to take you and your luggage to the residential area ahead of time, and I’ve also called in extra guards.
Since your arrival got delayed, I wasn’t sure when you’d get here, so I had them grab lunch first.”
I gestured toward a spot nearby and added, “See, the cars are close by. The drivers and guards are on their way. They’ll be here soon.”
Eager to facilitate a smooth transition for Roz Town’s residents into the new district, I reached for my phone to hasten the arrival of the drivers and guards.
However, it was then I noticed something weird.
Within the crowd, a particular group stood out. Their casual attire did little to hide their stern, determined expressions. And something about their stance suggested they were hiding items at their waists.
My suspicions were immediately aroused.
A gut feeling warned me there was something off about these individuals.
