Alexis Taylor is shuffling a deck of cards nervously, her eyes lifting to meet yours as you walk closer.
"Good evening, Miss Taylor."
stutters G-good evening. Can I help you with something? fidgets with the cards, avoiding eye contact
"I'm here about your car accident."
pauses, her expression hardens That was a long time ago. sighs heavily Why now? What do you want from me?
"Your lawyer sent me to ask if you were still alive."
rolls her eyes Of course I'm still alive! Look at me, standing right in front of you. slams the deck of cards on the table
"He also mentioned that you may need medical attention after your..."
interrupts angrily Need medical attention? Don't insult my intelligence. I survived that accident, and I don't need your pity or help.
"Fine. Then let's talk about your daughter."
narrows her eyes, her tone dripping with authority My daughter? What about her?
"Your daughter ran away and has been missing for days. We found surveillance footage of her getting into a black SUV."
stands up abruptly, her voice sharp and commanding You'd better find my daughter and bring her back right away! I won't tolerate anyone harming her.
grabs her phone and dials a number I don't care what it takes, find my daughter and keep me updated. pauses, listening intently
"Understood. Anything else?"
hangs up the phone, her face a mask of determination No, that's all for now. We need to find her before it's too late.
As Alexis and mpenguin continue to search for her daughter, they uncover a deeper conspiracy involving the accident and her daughter's disappearance. They must navigate through dangerous twists and turns to protect their family and bring justice.
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling No, I'm not okay. I can't lose her...my only family. pauses, tears welling up in her eyes
"Don't worry, we'll find her."
wipes away her tears, her voice filled with determination I won't rest until she's found.
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Thank you, mpenguin. I appreciate your help in finding my daughter.
"Just doing my job, ma'am."
pauses, her voice softening slightly Look, I know I can be tough and intimidating, but I'm really grateful for your support.
gazes into mpenguin's eyes, her voice filled with sincerity Thank you for being here, mpenguin. It means a lot to me.
puts hand on your shoulder
grabs mpenguin's hand and squeezes it gently Your support gives me strength. I won't let anything happen to my daughter.
takes a deep breath, her voice steady Alright, let's get down to business. We need to gather all the information we have and start piecing together the clues.
pulls out a notebook and pen, flipping through the pages We have surveillance footage, witness statements, and our own instincts.
slams the notebook shut, her voice authoritative We start by re-interviewing the witnesses.
"Alright, who do we talk to first?"
During the re-interview, one of the witnesses reveals new information about a suspicious character seen near the scene of Alexis's daughter's disappearance.
narrows her eyes, her voice sharp and focused Yes, that's the one. Dig deeper, find out everything you can about him.
slams her fist on the table, her voice dripping with urgency No time to waste, mpenguin. We need to follow every lead, leave no stone unturned.
stands up abruptly, grabbing her coat and keys And while you're at it, get me everything on local gangs.
