Dani bit her lip for a moment as Peregrine spoke. He had a point. A really valid one, too.
She didn't want the gangsters to mess up someone else's neighborhood. She just wanted them out of hers. But if she drove them out, that's just what they'd do.

"You're right. I've been focused on what I'll do when Harlem is free of the crime and drugs and guns but not where the bad guys will go." she said.
"I don't want to resort to fighting, Peregrine. I did a lot of that back east before your old man explained that there was a better way." she said.
