9 ♜ investigation

[lawbender]

Small white notices are going up in various businesses across Burby. Hand-written neatly, they say simply:

Seeking information about an incident that occurred at - (and this is the address of Alec's business) - on 12 April. If you were in the area and saw anything at all unusual, please report to - (and this, not unexpectedly, is the address of the tiny police station where Lin holds court).

These notices are accompanied by another one, written in the same careful handwriting.

Burby Police Force is recruiting new officers. Please apply in person on Monday, 29 Apr to - well, you get the point.

Lin has been busy, no matter what any private detectives might be saying.

[ ooc: Action anywhere around town. Feel free to come in for a job interview! :D :D :D ]

I'm not sure. When was the French Revolution?

[lawbender]

[ Lin isn't sure who the French are, or why they would have revolted. ]

Not my timeline. I'm assuming it was some time ago.

[ She pauses, but she can't really think of any reason not to let Misery try, at least. Except maybe the fact that she's going to need an umbrella. She could always send Misery on the easy cases. She can wrangle Thorpe's goose the next time it tries biting people. ]

Can you start tomorrow?

[Oh, Lin. You have no idea what you're getting into.]

Okay. What time?

[lawbender]

[ We'll see how long Misery remains employed. ]

Early. Use your best judgment.

Morning-early or night-early?

Okay.

Bye.

[ Lin lifted a hand in wordless goodbye.

This will be... interesting. ]
