The East Array asked again.
```
WHICH OF YOU IS ASKING FOR ALL?
```
Restoration answered before any person could.
```
PUBLIC RESCUE FIGURE:
CALEB MERCER
```
Soma cut the field.
The answer stayed on two rally mirrors and one certified bus.
Caleb reached across the evidence-room console and pulled the bus route breaker with his bare hand.
"They used my name. I refuse it."
Rina killed the rally mirrors.
"Nobody answers for all."
Aren spoke through the black call box.
"Good. Keep saying that in different words. The Array is measuring agreement."
Tali watched nine eleven marks hold their eastward angle.
"How long before agreement becomes enough?"
"The old record gives no clean threshold. The first city reached it in eleven minutes."
"How many minutes are we into ours?"
Soma checked the receiver clock.
"Three."
The fourteen feeders under Ward Nine clicked together.
Aren opened a second channel.
