"Do i?"

"ANYWAY! As mrs Sl'ur'Ga'zz was telling before, her beloved Fluff'kal has been kidnapped. She's afraid her Fluff-sitter might have been the culprit."

Alright tell her you'll go interview the Fluff-sitter immediately. How can you contact them?

Also what color is the Fluff'kal? Can't tell from the hologram.

Ma'am are you certain it has not been on top of your head the whole time. It looks small enough to hide in that hat...

>>837663
Request info on the SIZE of the Fluff'Kal. Also, you're unfamiliar with that breed... Does it have any dangerous abilities or potentially valuable powers that anyone might want to steal it? What motive does she suspect her fluff-sitter of having?

Also, detective, if you don't pay attention this time, your conscious is gonna put a boot up your ass in your dreams.

Why does she suspect the sitter?

"Ma'am, please read the sign:"

Point to your sign. The sign says: CASUALTIES GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK! Refunds do not apply on a no-casualty job.

"I kill people, then I figure out their crimes and get them posthumously judged for their crimes. Point me in the direction of your local extortion ring slash drug den, or I'll take your money, go on a wild goose chase because I can't kill anyone and read their dead minds with my mind rays, and keep your money after filing a missing fluff'kal to the police like you totally should have."

"See... Hannelore, our sitter... she... she has had problems with the law... when she was younger. One of my friends suggested her since her aunt works for her as a maid and since she needed money for her college. We thought we'd do a nice thing. Even knowing her past we decided to give her a chance. She worked for us for over three months. Bup loved her so much too! She was almost like family... but then three days ago she went out for a walk in the park with him and she did not return. I tried to call her aunt too but she isn't answering either!!!"

"Fine! Fine! Let's focus on finding this thing"

We're gonna comb all the local hairdressers for any large purchases made. Shaving off all that fur is like filing the serial numbers off for a Fluffiwhatsit. Nobody'd recognize it, and the fur would regrow in no time, leaving the resale value unchanged!

>>838004
Let's check the aunt's house.

I seem to recall one of those figures was your new body. It's okay, you don't need to thank me or anything for that!

First, we go to the police, who will take inquiries by us much more seriously! ...well, anyway, they should be able to tell us if a missing persons report was filed for the sitter.

>>838004
Well, for starters, this rich client clearly doesn't care about her employee. This should reaaaally be a Missing Persons Case, but whatever.

Anyway, so the Sitter had problems with the law in her past and has no motive to steal the fluff. We can therefore assume that she was targeted while out for a walk and the Fluff was a target of opportunity or simply dragged along for the ride.

Anyway, we need to dig into Hannelore's past. Find out her associates, locate old enemies. Oh, and we should dig up Sl'ur'Ga'zz's enemies as well, just in case the Fluff really was the target.

Remember, B.E.A., it's almost always the case in these Noir things that the dame who brings you the case has something mysterious going on. Leave no stone unturned in our investigation!

Also, Ray, promote Bea to detective. You clearly just wanna sit around at your desk and occasionally go drinking in seedy bars. You be the secretary and make her the detective.

... Paper thin.

Bash your way through the wall, investigate the room. The neighbor can use the extra space as if it was her own, seeing as how Ms. Hip'la won't be in for a few months on kidnapcation.

Uh, maybe you should pick the lock if you're doing any breaking and entering. You can at least deny doing that.

Ask her if she's heard any odd conversations through the wall. Anything about a Fluff'kal? Or her niece?

Ask if she knows where Hip'la went? Or if she noticed if Hip'la was acting odd before she left?

"What a mess... Thought it'd be tidier for a housekeeper's flat. Single room with bathroom. Pay must also not be that great i guess."

Oh yeah, that is fishy. No surround sound stereo, no [Alien guitar], just one computer with internal speakers; those things are notorious for low-quality screeching at high volumes. There's only one valid reason why she wouldn't use hovering headphones, and that's as a soundscreen.

Look for anything that might make noise. Check the computer, see what music files she has and cross-reference them with the stuff the neighbor hears.

What's that on the desk? Also check under the covers and next to the bed, see if there's anything besides clothing there.

>>839257
Water damage around the piping. Clothes on the floor. Bed's unmade. Computer's on. Looks like she's either too tired or too lazy to deal with her own apartment.

No signs of a struggle obvious, door was locked, nothing appears to have been rifled. Check the pockets of any clothing laying around for clues while BEA examines the computer.

Current working hypothesis: Whatever our Hannelore was involved in, her aunt was too. It's unlikely she's been kidnapped from her home, suggesting she and Hannelore were working together away from home, and that something unpredicted has occurred.

It could be anything from a sewing circle to a drug smuggling ring, so we can't exactly make a theory based on that without more concrete clues to her movements.

While you're at it, you should make a note to search Hannelore and her Aunt's police records, search for any signs of shared criminal history. Could be an old enemy caught up with the pair of them, or they stumbled into something dangerous and were caught.

This case has gone from dognapping to multiple missing persons and possible conspiracy charges. You know what that means... we're gettin' paid extra, and if we live we'll get a newspaper article to frame on our wall!

Check every nook and cranny for this granny.

What's that purple thing on the bed?

>>839257
There's some kind of tablet or similar on the dresser next to the television screen. Might be worth reading what's on it, if it's unlocked or can be readily hacked.

There might be a purple envelope on the bed to check, although that might also be a cuffed shirt sleeve.

Other than that generally snoop around. Remember, keep quiet, the walls are thin and there's at least one neighbor listening.

have your assistant scan the electronics while you look around. also if you've got gloves put them on you don't want to inadvertently ruin a clue.

"It seems it only contains a list of numbers and this."

"A schedule."

"Yes, sir. Anything that could be of help, sir?"

>>839620
Fascinating. 'Hannelore' has been living multiple lives using a series of disguises. She's concealing her criminal history to work for all these people.

I'm inclined to be sympathetic here, as we've all had to deal with explosive college fees, but we still need to figure out where she is. Examine the schedule and see if we can find out who is on this list. Have there been any burglaries linked to these people?

After this, we should probably start checking these listings for clues, as well as inform the police that 'hannelore's aunt' is missing.

Weird, what's with this schedule? A second name in parenthesis for each job?
Personally I suspected prostitution because of the loud music, but the schedule doesn't make sense for that. ...maybe the loud music is just her listening to music. If we had knowledge of exactly when the loud music was being played and matched it up to the schedule then we could make a better guess as to what the music is for.

This place does seem to be her room. Not her aunt's. Which makes me suspect that the aunt does not exist and it was her in disguise all along. ...OH, that's why the schedule has a name in parenthesis associated with each employer. She's working as a maid for those people, but under assumed identities. I can think of two motives for this:
1. she's planning to steal from her employers and the false identity is so she doesn't get caught, or
2. she's hunted by people from her criminal past and she can't go outside without a disguise.
...or like the poster above me said, she's doing it to conceal her criminal history so they'll trust her with maid duty.
I feel like the first possibility is less likely, since she's serious about going to college and she's got enough work to cover the costs. She shouldn't need to steal.

What was on her schedule the day she disappeared?

Check the overhead cabinet and then the bathroom. I think we're about done here though. We don't have a solid lead to check next but we do know a lot more about what she's been doing. Maybe someone figured out who she was and kidnapped HER along with the pet? I think we should check the park next and see if any of the regulars there saw her.

Wait a fucking minute how did the client know about her criminal history when Hannelore is an assumed identity? I think we need to find out who this sitter really is.

...wait, what about the emails about payments? Who is she giving payments to and what is it for? Is the debtor angry at her at all?

Time to interview the staff of these other rich folk and see what friends/enemies she might have had in total.

>>839639
YOU'RE RIGHT! IT'S A TRAP! THE DAME, SHE WAS IN ON IT THE WHOLE TIME. DO WE EVEN KNOW IF SHE REALLY WAS MRS Sl'ur'Ga'zz ?!

>>839718
WHAT IF SHE WAS POSING AS THE FLUFF'KAL TOO?!

It's sure looking like we're looking at one person running multiple identities simultaneously.

I wonder why? She doesn't need different identities for different pet sitting gigs.

Definitely visit some of her clients and ask them how she acted the last time they saw her.

I definitely feel like there's something we're missing here. If she has so much debt that she's working this many jobs, how could she possibly manage to afford both high-quality enough makeup AND a person to do that makeup for her? That level of detail isn't something you can just do by yourself.

>Wait, why did you ask that? Is she in trouble? What happened?
I'm not completely sure, to be honest. That's why I'm investigating.

I suspect the metal might be a noise cover to mask whatever she's doing.

"Here she is"

"Hannelore Vid'jala. At least she didn't lie about her name."

"She was a small fry. Part of a band of small time thugs and thieves. Arrested three years ago two planets away from here. Released after a year for good behavior. No more charges for her since then."

We need info on her associates. have any of them been spotted in the area? She could have been press-ganged back into their service.

I'm interested in those lifted murder charges. Is there a story there? Also, we need to know about her associates. Any other info in the file?

>>843477
She just looks like some poor, scared kid.
Not exactly criminal mastermind mastermind material.
What planet was she arrested on?

You know what they say about prisons; it's a matter of who's trapped with who. And something tells me Hannelore intentionally threw herself into the penal system for a year. Mainly, the first-degree murder charge being DROPPED. How could a juvenile get charged with first-degree, let alone get it removed without high connections?

There are a number of reasons why a professional operative would intentionally get themselves arrested. 1) White-Collar prisons have top-notch security 2) and heavy obscurity to keep the heat off from assassins, 3) Blue-Collar prisons have some of the most well-informed and infamous gang bosses in the universe 4) and nobody cares when they die in there, 5) It's the easiest way to send a covert message without getting assassinated, 6) And the hardest way to force someone back into a life they don't want.

>>843477
We need info on her former associates whereabouts then. Only lead we've got on why she'd go missing.

Ooh! A Read More button! Press it!
Can we access her communications history or otherwise track her mobile comms device?

woah, woah, woah, hold up. What this about a murder charge? Also look at who her old friends were. We might have found a motive as to why she was kidnapped here.

An elaborate scheme where she maintains multiple aliases is a big step up in complexity from looks like mostly small-time stuff here.

What's with the dropped murder charge? Sounds like she could have been wrapped up in something that made her an enemy. Maybe that followed her here.

Observation: Of her identities, Hannelore appears to be the "real" one, or at least the one she was under when this went down. Her getting kidnapped while she was doing a job as "Hannelore" would make sense then, if the events of the past is the motivator here; I don't see anyone paying a ransom for her. That is, assuming she didn't decide to drop off the map completely just to profit off of a stolen pet. But then, she can still have just gotten caught in the crossfire of someone trying to get at the client.

(Speaking of ransom notes; if we are dealing with an enemy, then there's good odds of our client receiving one by now. We should check up on that.)

Despite her sentence she's currently in a rehab community five planets from here. She had such a bad case of Drug withdrawal that almost sent her in a coma."

"Dang"

"Anyway, that's pretty much what i have on Hannelore, dude."

Hmm. What's with the shared Fraud charge? We've eliminated her former gang members as suspects but what about their victims? Are any of them on this planet?

>>844530
>Scylla
We may want to question her.

>>844532
Why?

Well the rest of the gang is locked up, and it doesn't look like they have a strong motive to go after her.

Might have come from the other side of things- someone close to the victims not happy she got out?

Assuming the prisoners are where it says they are because the system works, it's not them, that's a dead end.
Next angle: the frozen yogurt company!

well seeing how the murder charge was dropped do to the mind scan instead of Hannelore snitching like I thought was the case it's unlikely that these three would have a grudge against Hannelore much less to be able to actually kidnap her seeing where the 3 are currently being held. (unless one of them is pulling a law abiding citizen [as in the movie] but even then the distance would make that even more unlikely)

Well might as well fill out that missing person report for the girl then and let Matilda know what little we found out about Hannelore. Like past jobs, people she worked for, and how she seemed to have about a dozen deferent disguises. But one last thing, does it say anywhere that Hannelore ever had a history with drugs? I'm just asking because her three partners all do and I find it slightly odd that given her old choice of friends that she managed to stay clean.

>>844530
Scylla's our only police lead. That's unfortunate.

Seems like the only other thing on Hannelor's record that could be important (besides "A-Gravjacking") is the Fraud charge. I don't see her making enemies that serious in the field of shoplifting.

(What is "A-Gravjacking?" I figure A-Grav stands for "anti-gravity," but is it just vehicular hijacking, but in space?)

We should be looking for people who know the client. And find out more about Mrs Sl'ur'Ga'zz in general. Hannelore gave her real name to her. Why would she do that?

Ask if Matilda knows anything about Mrs Sl'ur'Ga'zz.

Also we need to check out the park, where Hannelore was last seen. Are there any camera feeds of the park? Matilda may be able to get us a lead there.

>>845719
Thank her for the information, get BEA to download it, then quietly ruminate on being kicked off the force. That sucked.

After ruminating, head out! This seems more and more like a classic revenge case. Someone wanted Hannelore to pay, perhaps.

OH! ASK ABOUT THE OFFICER WHO GOT HIT! Was anyone injured? Could be a pissed off cop wanting revenge for themselves or their partner.

>>845719
Make sure you thank her sincerely before you leave. Gotta work on maintaining relationships with sources and contacts, especially when you count on them for information.

You'll drop her a line later, let her know how it goes.

If you're nice, she might someday be glad to see you, instead of trying to get rid of you as quickly as possible!

Did an officer get hit? After that, we’re done here. This has been interesting, but we’ve hit a dead end when it comes to figuring out where she actually is. We need to get to the park and actually figure out what, exactly, went down there. By the lack of reports of a girl getting kidnapped there, this either went down in a remote area of the place, or it was a bit more subtle than your average grab-n-go.

Well, easy enough. Go to the bank, meet with the manager, request access to a specific time-period in a specific camera's arc. Explain that you're on a missing persons case and someone could be in serious danger.

Now hold on just a minute guys. How much of the park do the cameras actually cover? Considering that the Bank is open “at all hours,” we should stay here and capitalize on as much manual clue-finding time as we can. Stick to the outside-in approach; even if they were grabbed deeper in, and any clues found there could help point towards the “who,” a girl and her boss’s dog had to be removed from the park at a location, and is more likely to tell us the more important “where.”

Looks like it's time to dress as a janitor! You have access to an apartment full of disguises that you have yet to identify as fitting or not. So get something from there if that works. If not, how hard could it be to dress as a janitor?

“Hey, isn’t this bank supposed to be open at all hours?”

>>870722
These two seem a bit thick. We could disguise ourselves as the janitor and slip inside.

"Oh... i see. Well thank you, i'll come back tomorrow morning then! Come B.E.A. let's go back to the park!"

"Sir?"

"I know, i know. We need those camera recordings. But the security is tight!"

"Uhm... Sir?"

"But don't worry!!! I have a cunning plan!"

"First: i dress up as a janitor. I should have some costumes around."

"Sir"

"Then you hide in the can as i sneak through them. They will never recognize me as i am an icredible actor."

"S-sir..."

"Clearly we will have to sneak past the security drones and the cameras, which you can take out thanks to your hacking app that i can download for a free 3 days trial."

"And then we'll take a little break from sneaking at the vending machine since i'm starving and i will have to burn a lot of energies from the sneaking around and ac... "

"SIR!"

"WHAT?! "

"The bank is open at all hours, sir."

"Yes i do have to apologize for our temporary guards. They are assholes."

"Mh-hm. And about those recs?"

"I will have to ask the guys at the top, but i don't see any real problems myself. Might take a bit, but i can contact you back as soon as i get an answer. A kidnapping taking place near our bank is bad publicity for us, so helping is the least we can do."

"That's good. B.E.A. will give you my number. Thank you for your collaboration."

"No problems. Can i help you with anything else? We have good plans for retired cops or for whoever has dangerous lives. Like comic book guys!"

Where the snacks at

>We have good plans for retired cops or for whoever has dangerous lives. Like comic book guys!
You mean you have a schedule to prepare them for getting killed one [unit] before retirement? *lol* But seriously, I'm probably not eligible.

Well, I haven't had lunch. Where's the nearest food store?

Complimentary peanuts. The near death experience took some energy.

>>874928
Ask about where organic employees would get lunch.

>We have good plans for retired cops or for whoever has dangerous lives. Like comic book guys!
Sure, have him beam Bea the details and let her read the fine print. Might be worth investing in on a day you aren't broke.

>temporary guards
Why do you have temporary guards? Did something happen to your regular guards? Do you not normally have guards, but there was some kind of incident?

Probably shouldn’t stick our noses into anything potentially dangerous to be privy to (like the prototype they mentioned) unless it’s plausibly related to the case. Just focus on getting the footage. If we have time to do one more thing and still grab a bite to eat, we should try talking to that fellow on the bench that’s been shown in the background for a couple panels. He’s in a central location, and doesn’t seem to move much.

"And get shot? Nah. I don't even know if it might be related to the case. Let's see if the park is still open"

"Yes sir?"

"Any messages for me? Voice mails?"

"Yes sir! 4 messages."

"Play them."

"Message number one: From doctor Mema-Woka."

Hello mister Gunn? I'm Nurse P'null. We wanted to know if you wished to continue with the op

"Next"

"Message number two: From Mrs Klig'an."

Uhm... H-hello detective Gunn? I hope i don't disturb you but i wanted to know if there are any news about Deena? Maybe we can talk about it over a coffee? I mean, if that's not a problem or goes against the laws? I don't really know how these things work. In case... you have my number. Have a nice sleuthing day!

"Message number three: From Officer Matilda Kala."

Hey mudaki. I started asking around for your crap. I don't know if this can help or if it has any relation with your case, but it seems that Bu'ka was sent to the infirmary in the HOLE after an altercation with O'ta'ka and they had to change his cellmate. The one he killed, remember? Well it turns out that the Sh'baba killed a guy that was in a gang. I don't know which one yet. Maybe that can help?
In any case, you owe me one.

"Message number four: From anonymous number."

Hello Sir and/or Ma'am I'm calling you because you result as a possible winner for our wonderful vacation plan. All you have to do is ans

"Delete. urgh"

"So sir. What do you think might be going on? Do you have plans for tomorrow so i can fill in the agenda?"

We're going to infiltrate the jail so we can interview the prisoners. And/or get three square meals a day.

thank kiki for the grub.

>>881276
LOL. They have a "they know too much" button under the desk and we almost got it triggered on us.

An update with the missus won’t hurt. Maybe ask more about the victim. And tell her that the sitter might have also been a victim in this kidnapping, potentially even the primary target, as we don’t see why she would suddenly drop off the face of the Galaxy after just a dognapping. Also prepare to head back to the park to actually do some first-hand clue-sniffing. Doesn’t matter how hard we follow the victim’s connections; we aren’t getting anywhere until we get some insight into the crime itself’s order of events. Don’t waste any effort; if nobody has received a ransom note, then time is probably not on our side.

>Kiki
Didn't she get you BEA too? Who is she?

>>881284
Heh, the ole 'revealing cover-up' button. Good memories. Shame we're dying too fast to enjoy this case more. Anyway, we need to interview the people Bu'ka knew. Think we can get into the prison to see him? Also, maybe a quick stop by the park tomorrow.

And it might be painful, but try to forgive the people around you for freaking out about your health. BEA was built to take care of you, after all.

Also, make an appointment with Klig'an. Maybe we can get some food while on our coffee date.

>>881287
Important. Then the park then the jail. I don't think we can justify meeting for coffee, we don't know anything yet.

If you can spare a few credits, do so (assuming that’s what the sign he put up is asking for). Then open with “Question.” So he at least knows you aren’t here to harass him before he has a chance to shut you out again. He’s probably had it rough from the folks around here. Ask if he saw anything... was it two days ago? Ask what he saw in the last two days. If he doesn’t give up anything useful, mention that you’re investigating the kidnapping of a dog sitter and the dog she was walking.

Turn out your pockets for him and then immediately start questioning. Don't leave room to be interrupted.
