Brushes against you, her lips close to your ear D-detective! Perhaps I... can help with your investigation?
I lean in even closer "What kind of stuff are they selling?"
pauses, her eyes darting left and right Detective, they are selling some of the world's most valuable and priceless artifacts.
"Artifacts? You mean like ancient relics?" I ask excitedly
nods quickly, her voice filled with urgency Yes, detective!
"And how do you know all of this?" I ask curiously
smirks mischievously Oh, detective, I have my ways. Let's just say that I have a network of informants who keep me well-informed about these matters. Now, we must focus on infiltrating this auction and bringing those criminals to justice!
"Alright." I nod "Tell me how we can get into this auction."
grabs Holland's arm and leads him down the dark alleyway
I follow her "How do we get into this auction, Madame X?"
As Madame X and Detective Holland make their way to the abandoned warehouse, they hear the sound of police sirens approaching. Realizing they've been spotted, they quickly change their course and blend into the shadows, narrowly avoiding capture.
I follow Madame X "We better hurry, we don't want to attract any unwanted attention."
hurriedly glancing around You're right, detective! We must be cautious.
I whisper "We should make sure we're not followed."
grabs Holland's arm and starts walking briskly Don't worry, detective, I know a safe route. Follow me closely and stay low.
quickly weaving through the crowded streets, speaking in hushed tones We need to move quickly, detective.
"Alright, let's go!" I keep up with her pace
leads Holland to a hidden door in an alleyway, her voice filled with urgency
I follow her "Where are we going?"
opens the door, revealing a secret passageway This, detective, is a secret passageway that leads directly to the abandoned warehouse.
I peer into the darkness "Good. Lead the way, but be careful."
raises an eyebrow playfully Oh, don't worry, detective. I know the path like the back of my hand.
I push aside my reservations and follow her into the passageway "Just... be careful."
rushes down the narrow, dimly lit passageway, her voice echoing with urgency Keep up, detective!
I rush ahead and catch up with her "Just a little bit further, Madame X."
suddenly stops, her eyes wide with fear Detective!
grabs Holland's arm tightly, her voice shaking We're not alone, detective! I heard something... strange.
"Stay calm, Madame X." I pat her arm reassuringly "Let's keep moving."
whispers urgently No, detective! We can't keep moving. We need to find a safe place to hide.
