"Did he seem strange to you?" Scully said. Darkness seemed to press on the windows of the car, with only a few feeble streetlights forcing it to lean back and reveal the town.
"He's scared," Mulder said. "Scared of this town, maybe scared of us. We're gonna find out."
"I just can't help feeling…" Scully bit her lip.
"Yeah?"
"That we're walking into a trap," she said. "Why would he want us to leave our car?"
Mulder reached across the seats and grabbed her hand. "We've always been pretty good at springing traps. Besides, he might be in earnest. We'll know more in the morning."
Scully smiled. In front of them, Wang's car slowed. The back window was caught in the red glow of a large motel sign. Wang parked in the glow of the sign. Mulder pulled up next to him.
"This way." Wang lead them to the motel's side door. He dug a key out of his pocket and said, "I've already secured you two rooms next to one another." He opened the door. They stepped into the dark hallway, lit only at its ends with dusty floor lamps. We-we can discuss the situation in the morning. Don't worry about breakfast. I can bring food to you." He handed them each a key.
"Thank you, Professor," Mulder said. "Don't bother with breakfast. I imagine we can…"
Professor Wang put up his hands. "Please don't. I…I can just prep you and then you'll know what you are walking in to."
