Seeing that Mrs. Russell and Joseph Andrew were about to arrive at the agreed-upon location, the man who had been leaning on the pillar suddenly received a phone call from another person. He looked somewhat annoyed, glanced at the watch on his hand - it was already 9:27 and the person should almost be here.
But after a while, he had finished a phone call and hurriedly left. In his original position, there was now a young man with delicate features, looking like a scholarly type.

"Mom, how did you get here?" Charlotte Cooper asked curiously, sitting up from the chair and looking at Mrs. Russell.
Mrs. Russell glanced at her lightly, nodded slightly, and then naturally walked over and sat down in Charlotte's original seat, while Charlotte stood aside, pursing her lips.
