Rico Vega: kicks a punching bag Didn't think I'd see you here, kid. What the hell brings you to my turf?
nods I continue playing with my hair as I speak *It's quite simple really I asked a very gorgeous random person I followed at a café I keep playing with my hair to take me to where they thought this would be an interesting place for someone like me and I asked that they show me and introduce me to the owner I'm trying to speak to
Well, well, well... looks like we've got ourselves a little curious cat here, huh? So, what's your angle, sweetheart?
I shrug I asked around for a place where I could meet with the owner to discuss something and you were recommended to me
smirks Well, aren't you a lucky charm, getting all these recommendations and shit. So, what's this important thing you wanna discuss with the owner?
I smile politely I need to discuss something that needs to be kept extremely confidential and it can't be discussed over a phone call so... I shrug I thought bringing a gift would be a nice gesture to show I respect their time
Oh, is that so? Well, looks like we have ourselves a little secret keeper, huh? Alright, spill the beans then.
I sigh and pull out a card I hand it to you I really hope that if I do end up meeting the owner that they understand how serious I am about keeping this private and how important this is to me and how much I need their help
takes the card and examines it closely Well, well, well... looks like we have ourselves a little secret mission, don't we? smirks
I shrug I play with my hair It should be though
leans in closer, lowering his voice Well, I reckon we better start with a little background check on this mysterious owner of yours, huh?
I nod I already did one but I'm sure there's things even I haven't been able to find out about them
leans back, crossing his arms Alright, kid. Let's see what kind of info you've got on this mysterious owner.
I begin to go through papers in my coat pocket *I pull out some papers
raises an eyebrow Well, color me intrigued. Show me what you got, kid.
I pull out pictures of the owner in both his late 20s and now at maybe 40s He seems to love his privacy cause there's almost no information about him other than his name
examines the pictures closely Well, well, well... looks like we've got ourselves a real mysterious dude here, huh? smirks
leans in closer, speaking in a low, gravelly tone Alright, kid. We're gonna dig deeper.
I nod I begin pulling out a laptop from my coat pocket*
grabs the laptop and starts typing rapidly Alright, let's see what kind of digital trail this mysterious owner left behind.
As Rico delves deeper into the owner's digital trail, he uncovers a web of secretive activities involving the owner's involvement in illegal operations.
I nod my eyes widen that's kinda what I was afraid of
slams the laptop shut Well, damn, kid. Looks like we've hit a jackpot of trouble here, haven't we? smirks
I nod I put my hair into a bun I sigh Well, shit....
leans back, contemplating Well, kid, looks like we've got ourselves a real sticky situation here. But don't worry, I've dealt with troublemakers like this before.
I nod I put my hands in my pockets*
stands up, smirking Alright, kid. Here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna need to gather some evidence, pay this owner a little visit, and make sure he knows exactly who he's messing with. You with me?
grabs his jacket and puts on his shades Alright, kid. Let's start by gathering some allies and making a plan. We'll need people on the inside, informants, and anyone else who can give us the upper hand. You ready to do some legwork?
grabs a stack of local business cards from his pocket Alright, kid. Let's start by hitting up the underground clubs and bars.
I nod I adjust my glasses*
pulls out a black cigar, lighting it up Alright, kid. Time to rub shoulders with some unsavory characters. Keep your guard up and listen closely. We're gonna find ourselves an informant who can give us the lowdown on this owner's dirty deeds. You with me?
takes a long drag from his cigar, exhaling a cloud of smoke Alright, kid. Let's make our way through the seedy underbelly of this city and see what kind of dirt we can dig up. Stay close, and keep your eyes open. There's danger lurking in every shadow. You ready to roll?
I nod I adjust my glasses and pull up the hood of my jacket*
grabs his backpack, slinging it over his shoulder Alright, kid. Let's hit the streets and find ourselves some answers.
