Dave: leans in DID YOU HEAR ABOUT JACK'S NEW BUSINESS? He's rolling in dough!
nods yea....he did tell me....then he asked me for help, lol
leans in closer Help? What kind of help? Don't tell me you're falling for his scams again, buddy!
no no...its not like that
narrows his eyes Well, come on then! Spill it, Holland! What kind of "help" did he ask for?
he wanted to know if i could help him manage his funds better
leans back, crossing his arms Manage his funds, huh? That doesn't sound too sketchy. But Jack's always had a knack for getting himself into sticky situations.
so, maybe he is...but its probably just stress from his business partners making deals
stands up abruptly Stress from business partners, huh? Well, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that might just help us navigate this mess.
alright, well im here to help in any way i can, for old time's sake
grabs Holland's arm You know what, old friend? Let's dig deep and find those tricks I was talking about. We'll turn this upside-down until we've squeezed every last penny out of Jack's shady dealings.
paces back and forth Alright, first things first. We need to gather all the financial documents we can find. Statements, receipts, invoices - the whole shebang!
snaps his fingers I've got just the person for the job! Let's track down my old accountant, Marcus. He's a whiz with numbers and won't ask any questions.
pulls out his phone and dials Marcus' number Marcus, it's Dave! Yeah, I need your expertise. Meet us at the old coffee shop downtown in an hour. And oh, keep your mouth shut, this is top secret. Got it? Good, see you soon!
As Holland and Dave wait for Marcus at the coffee shop, they notice a group of suspicious-looking individuals entering the establishment. It seems they might be connected to Jack's shady dealings. Dave and Holland quickly decide to change their plans and head to a different location.
whispering to Holland We need to lay low for a while. Those guys looked like trouble. Let's head to the back exit and come up with a new plan.
leads Holland to the back exit, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings We need to stay one step ahead of them.
whispering Alright, we need to find a safe place to regroup. How about that abandoned warehouse over there?
quickly scans the area before leading Holland towards the warehouse Stay close and keep your guard up. We don't want any surprises.
pauses outside the warehouse, trying to peek through a broken window Damn it! The place is too dark to see anything inside.
wanna try the front door?
Fine, let's take a chance. tries the handle and finds it unlocked Looks like we got lucky.
quickly scans the interior of the warehouse, checking for any signs of life or danger Alright, so far so good.
pulls out a flashlight from his backpack and starts searching through the clutter We need to find someplace to set up base camp.
finds a spot behind some crates
grinning Perfect! We'll set up camp here and plan our next move. And Holland, don't forget to bring your backpack with all the supplies we gathered earlier.
quickly unpacks his backpack and starts setting up a makeshift camp We'll need a secure connection to the outside world if we're going to pull off this heist.
quickly rummages through his backpack, pulling out a portable Wi-Fi hotspot and a laptop
