How strange, I had thought that maybe the Capitol, the wealthiest and largest human city would possess people of great repute and wealth.

But it seems I was wrong, or maybe those individuals are not present in such an establishment.

Sighing, I pushed the card towards the staff.

"Just scan the damn thing."
