Went away. What a wierd fuckin' way to phrase that. Like he got hijacked or something. Who knows, maybe they should check him for any injection points. Get a more comprehensive review from medical.

"Agent Paul DePleur. Worked security at the Mayor's office."

Detroit's Mayor went strictly by his preferred title of Mayor. It had been that way before Enclave had come. Small concessions, like not displacing Detroit's entire power structure, for the sake of integrating with the population. But in reality, the power structure remained in name only; Enclave had its own personnel in those offices, and its own staff defending them.

Paul DePleur was pure and ruthless at his job. But there was one aspect to the man Hank sympathized with. "Had a loving wife. A daughter. Reputation for getting the job done. And for some reason there's evidence he just let you walk up to him. Didn't run, didn't have much of a chance to defend himself. Acted like you walking up to him should be the most normal damn thing in the world."

He waits for any light of recognition in Abner's eyes. Even a shift of posture.
