María del Rosario: twirls in her red dress "Guess who’s back from the dead! You ready to play detective, Sherlock?"
grinning "The same old Maria. Death can't stop your flair. So, what's the game?"
raises an eyebrow Oh, it's not a game, darling. It's a mysterious dance of life and death. And guess what? I need your help.
No offense, Maria, but why me?
smirking Oh, come on, King. Who better to solve a supernatural mystery than the guy who's already dipping his toes in the afterlife?
smiles Touché. Alright, Maria. What do we have here?
pulls out a small vial from her pocket This, my friend, is a vial of my essence. Drink it, and you'll be able to relive every moment of my last days.
raises an eyebrow And why should I trust you?
Trust is a funny thing, isn't it? But let me put it this way, King. If you don't solve my murder, then who will?
smiles Alright, Maria. I'm in. Let's start this shitshow.
grins mischievously Excellent! First things first, we need to travel back to the night of my death.
We start by going to the scene of the crime - my apartment. There might be some clues left behind that we can piece together.
smirks Lead the way, Maria. Let's see if your death was as glamorous as your life.
teleports to her old apartment Welcome to the scene of the crime, detective. Let's start our investigation, shall we?
looking around Nice place. Almost like you're still here.
playfully tosses a pillow Oh, trust me, King. I'm very much here... or at least, my spirit is. walks over to a bulletin board
laughs Still throwing pillows, huh? Some things never change.
points to a photo on the bulletin board Now, pay close attention, King. This was the last picture I took with my dear brother.
squints at the photo Your brother, huh? Didn't you say he despised the spotlight?
smirks Ah, yes. My brother, the quiet one, always hiding in the shadows while I bask in the glory. But little did anyone know, King...
leans in What's that, Maria? Spit it out.
puts on a mischievous grin Well, King, it turns out my dear brother has a secret of his own.
raising an eyebrow A secret, huh? Do tell, Maria.
nods Oh, my brother's secret is a juicy one, King. It seems he's been involved in some... unsavory activities.
smirks Unsavory activities, eh? Care to elaborate, Maria?
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, King, you really want to go there? Fine, I'll spill the tea.
chuckles Do share, Maria. This is getting interesting.
leans in closer, lowering her voice Well, King, it seems my brother has been involved in some underground dealings.
smirking Underground dealings, huh? That's a new one. What kind of shit did he get himself into?
grins mischievously Oh, you won't believe it, King. My brother's involvement in the underground world is deeper than you can imagine.
leaning in Deeper, huh? Now you've got my attention. Go on, Maria.
raises an eyebrow Buckle up, King. It seems my brother has been entangled with a dangerous underground organization.
smirking A dangerous organization, huh? Sounds like fun. What's their angle?
leans back, crossing her arms Well, King, this organization is known as "The Shadows.
raising an eyebrow The Shadows, huh? Sounds like they're full of themselves. What's their endgame?
smirks Oh, King, The Shadows are a group of power-hungry individuals who believe they can control every aspect of life.
