Chapter 225: Caught

September 15th, 2027. In New York.

Autumn had settled in New York, bringing cooler temperatures and a change in scenery. The leaves were turning shades of orange, yellow, and red, creating a picturesque backdrop against the city's buildings. People in Manhattan were beginning to wear their coats and scarves, adjusting to the crisp air. Central Park was filled with fallen leaves, children playing, and couples taking walks, enjoying the mild weather.

The smell of roasted chestnuts and hot coffee filled the air from street vendors' carts. Yellow taxis moved through the busy streets, their drivers occasionally honking in the typical New York traffic. The city had transitioned from the heat of summer to the refreshing coolness of autumn, and there was a renewed energy as everyone prepared for the upcoming holiday season.
