He shook his head ruefully at her questions about his place. "Sadly no. Hardly deserves the name these days, but they still claim it. The building was a warehouse once. But has long since been renovated into small condos, built to mimic the fashion. Old red brick, dark hardwood floor. A key lock. Granite counter, not computer."
He chuckled quietly; his place was decidedly not what one would expect of someone of his station and income.
But while it may not have suited someone of his station, it did suit him perfectly. Nice but low key; an inconvenient location for someone that worked at the CDPS headquarters. But then again, he spent as little time there as he could. Parking was atrocious, but he didn't have his own car. Nor did he have a driver, unless he knew there was a squad car headed his way.
He finished his tea and set the empty cup aside, on a coaster of course. "And I would not be surprised if there were a ghost story or two about the place. It was built in the '50s, and a miracle it is still standing. Moscow back then was a very different place from today."
Most likely would not think him the type to believe in ghosts, but he was far more open to the idea then most. After all, he had lost two good friends to one many years ago.
