"Then when I fainted in front of the bakery in the central district before..."
Angel said calmly, "That was me too."
"Then you already completed that task?"
Angel said, "Completed it. It was a pretty simple task. I had to find fifteen sets of remains hidden inside Tina Tower."
That counted as simple? Zuniga froze. That was Tina Tower, one of the few places in all of Modern City entirely occupied by magicians!

Angel nodded noncommittally. "More or less. I 'persuaded' a deputy minister to help me find the fifteen sets of remains."
