**The Next Morning**
The cool autumn air blew through the half-covered window, and the curtains fluttered with the breeze, rustling gently. The sunlight streaming in through the window flickered as it touched the room.

"It's rare to see people on the road at half past six," Finn remarked as he opened the window completely, breathing in the fresh morning air.
Down below, people were already out running along the sidewalk. It was Agent Jimmy Woo of S.W.O.R.D., pretending to be a local resident. Very few people in this neighborhood would be out at this hour.
Since most of the town's residents worked in the nearby city, they didn't start their days as early as those in the fast-paced cities. Westview Town typically didn't begin its workday until around eight or nine in the morning. So leaving home 20 minutes earlier was hardly necessary.
"Agents sure are hardworking," Finn mused, glancing at Wanda, who was curled up in bed. She had promised last night that she would wake up early to study.
But when the alarm had gone off this morning, there was no movement from her at all.
With a small smile, Finn shook his head, picked up the coat draped over him, closed the window, and walked toward the living room.
The crisp air of early autumn was refreshing but not friendly to someone who had just gotten out of bed.
