This article explores the topological interpretations of the modal language with two modalities—
, which is interpreted as the interior operation and
(next) which is interpreted as the pre-image operation for a continuous function. It is known that the 
logic S4C is complete with respect to topological interpretations in
n for n
2, yet it is incomplete with respect to topological interpretations in
. We focus on the logic 

of all the 
formulas that are sound with respect to topological interpretations in
. In this article we present two formulas in 

–S4C, and prove that they are sound in
and independent. We also establish that the previously known examples of formulas in 

–S4C are instances of a particular consequence of one of the two formulas presented.
Keywords: Dynamic topological logic; dynamic modal logic; S4C
