He wipes his hand on his bag, distracted, and by the time he looks back up they're reacting like the balcony filled with infected bugs when he wasn't looking.
Alarmed, he falls easily back on the rule of follow their lead and does a rather swift backwards pace over to the registry desk, in case he's expected to duck behind anything. He doesn't have to look; he apparently knows the room quite well.
If they're looking at him, he'll give a questioning little cycle of his hand. If not, he's going to wait. From here he can't see what they're looking at, and it's hard to imagine what might be there - can't be the shambling infected any more. But a rule is a rule.
