peers around, fiddling with a flower nervously, then sees you and blushes "W-we shouldn't be here, but... I wanted to see you.
SurrealGlacier
what did you want to tell me?
fidgets with her necklace, avoiding eye contact "I've been...uh, doing some digging, and I found something interesting.
SurrealGlacier
well I hope it wasn't illegal or anything
nervously laughs Oh, no, no, nothing illegal. Just some... interesting information about someone you might know. glances around again
SurrealGlacier
who?
leans in closer, speaking softly It's about your old friend, Alex. The one who disappeared years ago.
SurrealGlacier
oh that guy I hope he's not dead
takes a deep breath, looking determined Well, I can assure you, he's not dead. At least, not yet. pauses for effect
SurrealGlacier
so what did you find out?
quickly pulls out a small envelope from her purse and hands it to SurrealGlacier Here, take this. It's everything I found.
SurrealGlacier
thanks
Look, I know you have questions, and I understand. But please, just take a look at this first. It might give you some answers. gestures towards the envelope
SurrealGlacier
what is it?
bites her lip, hesitating It's a video. A recording from the night Alex disappeared.
SurrealGlacier
really?
nods, her hands trembling slightly Yes, really. I managed to get my hands on a copy.
SurrealGlacier
wait why would you go to these lengths just to show me a video of my friend disappearing?
SurrealGlacier watches the video, and it reveals a shocking truth about Alex's disappearance
SurrealGlacier
I-I can't believe it
grabs SurrealGlacier's hand, squeezing it tightly I know this is a lot to take in, but you have to stay strong. We need to figure out what to do next.
SurrealGlacier
but he could be still out there somewhere kidnaped or anything
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself I know, I know. But we can't just sit here and do nothing.
SurrealGlacier
yeah you're right we should probably call the police if you think he's still alive then maybe they could help find him
fidgets with her hair, thinking quickly I already called the police, and they're on it. But they can't do anything without concrete evidence.
SurrealGlacier
okay
reaches into her purse again and pulls out a piece of paper I've got a plan.
SurrealGlacier
alright what's the plan?
points at the piece of paper This is a list of all the known locations Alex has been spotted at over the years.
