Klaus has completed the mission assigned to him.
For him, it is now time to return home.
The moment the plane lands, a black jeep is there to meet him.
Lucy[1] is waiting.

He picks up the file labeled "Top Secret" from the seat and begins to read.

Lucy can't hold it in any longer and asks:
L: Klaus, who exactly is this woman to you? I know who she is in the field, but what does she mean to you? A target? A friend? An enemy?
K: I assume you read the file.
L: As you know, I read every file that comes to you first—to verify the accuracy of the information.
K: I know, Luce.
L: So? Who is she?
K: She's one of my older sisters.
L: WHAT? I don't understand. How?
K: Don't be so surprised, Luce. There are still things about me even you don't know. Believe me, sometimes I realize there are things I don't even know about myself.
L: Then let me repeat my question. A target? A friend? An enemy?
K: We'll see, Lucy. We'll see. For now… none of them.
L: She became a legend in that organization. Didn't you know?
K: I had more important things to deal with, Luce. Toppling governments, carrying out and preventing assassinations…
L: I'm just asking, boss.
K: Don't call me that anymore. You know it's just the two of us now.
L: Yeah, I know. Is there a situation that would require us to regroup the team?
K: Not for now. But something inside me says there will be.
L: That voice in your head again? You know I love you, but I really don't like that voice.
K: Me neither, Luce. Every time I feel like this, something goes wrong. I'm aware of it.
K: ?[3], She knows about our future, doesn't she?
L: I didn't tell her… but she probably already knows.
L: Sometimes I think she's a freak. Like she has nothing better to do than follow you around.
K: Don't say that. Just imagine how hard things would be without her.
L: You mean everyone else besides you? People like us?
K: Believe me, Luce… even a man they call "Wraith" sometimes needs help.
L: (laughs) Don't mess with me, Klaus. I'm one of the people who knows what you're capable of—DON'T FORGET THAT!
K: Are you sure?
L: What's that supposed to mean?
K: (laughs) Nothing, Luce. Just saying.
K: Let's see what kind of disasters our return will bring.
