[Well unlike -some people-, Kaneda needs to use an elevator to get up to certain floors of a building. We're not all blessed with the ability to levitate, or teleport. But figures that Tetsuo would use it anyway, and it only ups the awkward that they're trapped in the same one.
You can't just pretend you're on the phone when you're with a telepath.
He bounces on his heels as the elevator goes up, taking sneak glances at Tetsuo in case the other wants to start a conversation.
He doesn't. Good. In fact, he looks like he's about to leave on his own accord. Fine, it's not like he really cared.
Or he wouldn't the elevator jerks to a stop, lights flicking once before--hissing. Something hissing. Kaneda knows well enough by now just what it is--too many government riots and attacks prepared him for this.
