<p>
&quot;Next stop: Center Square&quot;
Annie looks up. That&apos;s the station she has to get off at. She only
needs to be at work in the afternoon so she decided to get the manual for
Jack.
</p>
<p>
The train comes to a halt in the station. Annie steps out onto the
platform. Few people are around at this time. She glances at the clock
next to the train display: 10:17 AM. The light on the display switches to
the next train and the digits for the time of arrival start flipping over.
<span class="comment"> Is there a more elegant way to describe the train
station displays of yesteryear? </span> The door chime sounds and the
doors close. Annie starts to walk. The train begins to hum and starts to
move. She follows the roughly three other people towards the exit.
</p>
<p>
Annie walks down the stairs and steps onto the square. It is brightly
illuminated by a large glowing sphere made of yellow and brown glass
tiles suspended on steel cables hanging from four office complexes that
tower over the rest of the buildings. To the right is the library, a
large building with a facade of sandstone blocks. The front features
large pillars and a staircase spanning the entire width of the building
making it look like an ancient temple. The wall behind the pillars has
multiple rows of windows revealing that the building has multiple stories.
</p>
<p>
Annie makes her way up the stairs and enters through the large wooden
doors. She walks up to the counter. <br />
&quot;Hello, how may I help you today?&quot; The guy behind the counter
smiles. &quot;Borrowing the next stack of fantasy books?&quot;, he asks.
<br />
&quot;Uhm... Actually, no&quot;, Annie replies as she takes her library
card and a piece of paper out of her bag. &quot;I have a quite unusual
request. I am looking for&quot; - she glances at the piece of paper -
&quot;a manual for a B three three F Y dash A F bunker door.&quot; <br />
The guy types into his terminal for a moment. Annie places her library
card on the counter. With a worried look, he turns back to her: <br />
&quot;I&apos;m afraid, that information has recently been classified.
There is a note about terrorism in here.&quot; <br />
&quot;So there is no way to get it?&quot; <br />
He musters her for a second, then he takes the card and scribbles
something on it before putting it back. <br />
&quot;I can check you against a list of people with security clearance.
One moment, I&apos;ll get it.&quot; <br />
He gestures and nods towards the exit. Then, he turns around and walks
towards a door on the left, seemingly taking his sweet time. Annie gets
the message, grabs her library card and makes a swift exit. Just as she
leaves, she hears him call out to someone else: <br />
&quot;Dorothy, she left. What do I put on the list?&quot; <br />
<span class="comment"> heavy door falls shut, Annie hurries back to the
train station and gets on the first train that comes, she takes out her
library card and checks the note - such and such station, 10:30 PM
