Neo stayed hidden behind the veil of roots and leaves, one hand hooked against the edge of the opening while he watched the gray-haired boy below.
The bastard had stopped near the statue.
For a while, he only stood there, staring up at it with the kind of attention people gave to expensive things they had no right to touch. Then Neo heard him mutter to himself.
"Would this sell for a lot? If I could get something like this outside the Breach… yeah, some collector of exotic garbage would pay absurd money for it."
Neo almost snorted.
He wasn't wrong about that. A giant white angel statue from inside a sealed Breach probably would fetch a disgusting amount of Creds somewhere.
The image came to him at once.
A few rich idiots bidding over a piece of stone while pretending they understood history.
Then he let the thought go.
The main door was opening again.
Neo shifted his attention there at once.
Three more entered.
