The tall girl waited until Joseph's carriage had disappeared into the distance before she darted toward the back door of the Paris Angel Company. After checking that no one was around, she bent down to peer through the keyhole and saw an old doorkeeper sitting at the entrance, listlessly staring at the front door.

She studied the layout of the room for a moment, bit her red lips, and moved to the side door window. She pulled a thin wire from her hair and slipped it through a crack in the window, deftly manipulating it until the bolt quietly slid open.

Carefully pushing the window ajar, she leaped in with a soft grace, unbeknownst to the doorman who was merely three meters away.

The girl tossed a pebble against the back door, creating a light "snap," drawing a frown from the doorman, who got up to investigate.

Taking advantage of the moment, she swiftly stepped forward, used the back of his chair to vault herself over, and disappeared into the entrance hall.
