The police headquarters was a large three-story building with a fortified entrance. Men dressed in dark blue uniforms could be seen going in and out of the iron gates.
When Abel and Henry neared the entrance, a young man came out of the guard post by the entrance and stopped them.
"Gentlemen, may I know the reason for your visit?"
Henry simply responded with a smile. He silently handed the young man the folded letter of authority.
When the man read the contents of the paper warrant, he immediately straightened his back. "Welcome to the Newport Police Headquarters, Mr. Mercer!"
"Thank you and have a wonderful evening." Henry tipped his hat and walked past him.
Abel, who had seen the whole interaction take place, couldn't help but feel impressed. Not by Henry, of course, but by the organization supporting him.
The Ministry of Occult Affairs truly was something else!
