Mas's send-off ceremony took place at a venue provided by a funeral home, where Niel had requested a local pastor to officiate. The funeral home was quite capable, creating a solemn atmosphere while also offering plenty of desserts and beverages.
When Dean arrived, he almost thought a party was underway; the place was packed. However, he spotted Niel in the crowd almost immediately. It couldn't be helped—too many men were surrounding her.
A bunch of horny dogs, Dean smirked. He made his way through the crowd and, using his strength, forcibly pulled aside two men who were almost glued to Niel. He then hugged her as she looked up in surprise. "Sorry, I'm a bit late."
He had actually arrived earlier but first took a stroll around the former residence of Medical Examiner Santoni. The place had been sealed off, with no suspicious individuals lingering nearby. However, Dean noticed many more cameras had been installed, so after a brief observation, he left.
