Located a few meters northeast of the area affected by the 21 June incident, Chinatown has changed little since then.
Filled with alleyways, alleys and dark corners, along with buildings of Asian architecture, it is a place that once served as a haven for Chinese immigrants during the Victorian gold rush. Now, apart from being a major tourist attraction, it is also a comfortable place for psychic immigrants from all over Asia.
Philip and Willo descended on a small two—story building on the main street. She pointed out to him an entrance through the ventilation duct, and they entered the top floor of the building.
When Willo turned on the light, Philip could see the state of the place. Chairs and tables were piled up, dust, cobwebs, damp and dirt. Despite all that, he could recognize what this place was, a small Chinese restaurant.
—This place...
—It's my mother's restaurant.
—It looks pretty shabby.
