Fair enough. If things were that easy, Skulduggery reasoned, this place wouldn't have been in operation for so long. He doubted the devices would glean much.
It wasn't until Castiel asked that Skulduggery realised he'd never seen a staircase to the third floor. That, in itself, wasn't so strange, because he hadn't been here long; but he'd seen plenty of stairwells to the second floor. He'd used them several times now. None of the ones he'd seen went any higher, even though it was obvious from the outside that there was a third level to the place.
On the other hand, he had seen a hidden staircase. That might be something. And Castiel had answered most of his questions; it was only fair Skulduggery return the favour. "Not the third floor specifically, but there's a secret passage in the library. There's a staircase in it. I never got a chance to see where it leads, but it's too well-guarded not to lead somewhere useful. Why the sudden interest?"
