We road back to Westcamp, and as we wound our way through the different neighborhoods I realized that I was beginning to get a feel for the gradations of control. The ones closest to the Southcamp I still hadn’t seen were half-abandoned, and a lot of the people we passed on the street seemed to be “loitering with intent.” Their business was street business, and the police I could see patrolled in armored cars.

Getting closer to Westcamp we passed fewer abandoned businesses and empty streets. People were using the streets, on foot or by car, to get somewhere. I actually saw fewer armored patrol cars, but I also spotted marked private security vehicles and even security kiosks.

More private solutions to government breakdown?

Westcamp itself had a two-block ring around it where I saw police, conspicuously armed citizens, and even a pair of orange-vested Westcamp Public Safety Officers. Only one or two businesses were abandoned, and the streets bustled. So maybe West Chicago as recovering.

We put the bike back in parking, showing our passes at the Public Safety booth—the officers didn’t even blink at our “villain-rap” outfits—and got beef kebobs for lunch at a Greek food kiosk.

And I felt a tug on my leg.

“Hello.” Big brown almond eyes under a dark mop looked up at me. He had a firm grip on my leather bike pants.

“Hello back. What’s your name?”

“Jun. What’s your name?”
