The gesture perhaps lingers a bit too long for his liking, but he'll endure, as he always had. The old prosecutor was no fool.
He is quite aware that he still has business that needs attending, and thus the intercom announcing his stop pulls him back to reality.
"Hn. As long as you know where we draw the line."
There's a line of tension down his back as he's pulled against his will, and he'll bat the hand away once he's finished. Manfred was not entirely fond of that sort of contact from Chief Gant, after all. He didn't need a crutch. Depending on another was a sign of weakness.
"Fine. Then don't be late. You'll know when I am finished. I'll send the proper time to that device of yours."
A last glance is given before Manfred turned and, with cane in tow, left the train off to carry out the task that was required of him. It was an interesting development, but time would tell whether or not Gant lived up to his word. Nothing further was needed.
