Vesa brought forward the surviving connection entries.
The entries recorded use of the staging connection and preserved its local address. They did not identify the far end of Andrew's personal route.
Alex examined the plate himself.
He asked Vesa to check the entries left in the supervisor's device against the operator's account.
"The remote side stopped answering before Mingyue reached the upper controls," she said. "The path is closed, and the surviving controls give us no final destination."
He set the plate down.
The operator watched his hands.
"You won't believe me if I say I don't know where he went."
"Give me something I can follow, and I will. That address ends at a room he has already abandoned."
Alex picked up the plate and stood.
"The officer will come back for the reports you sent. Don't spend that interview telling him about the door again. We have the people you brought through it."
The man nodded slowly.
