“Wait for me!”
A bit sobered up, Francis follows Rito.
Rito continues to wonder around until he sees a dark alley. You can always find clues in dark alleys. He enters the area and begins to investigate
Daniel still hasn’t fully recovered yet.
D: “Hey… Mr. Mask. You’re pretty arrogant for someone without any powers… Do you truly believe that you’re better?”
The Masked Man says nothing for a while, but you hear a faint chuckle.
MM: You’ve cheated yourself for your own power. Do you believe you are better?
(“Yes, well, mostly, I have that tool man from earlier with me and he has a rough patch to go through. Anyway, I’m in this alleyway and- hold on. What kind of shop is this?”)
Daniel stays silent for a while before responding.
D: faintly “Perhaps… Perhaps you have a point…”
D: with more conviction “But that still doesn’t give you an excuse to beat… and torture people.”
Curious, Rito starts to open the door to the shop
“Handy Manny, I think I found something important. Hope you’re not afraid of ghosts.”

The shop is the same one that was the victim of a robbery.
It’s open.
It looks like a break-in never happened. Nothing is out of the ordinary , and everything seems to have been cleaned up and refurbished.
The shopkeeper smiles.
Shopkeeper: Eyo. Just got back, too.
Rito stares at the shopkeeper with concern. What kind of owner keeps their shop open at night?
“Sir, I was wondering if you’ve seen a little boy with light blue hair in a dark blue T-shirt and black pants. Have you seen him anywhere?”
MM: Humans…
MM: I’ve seen “humans” that look like wolves.
MM: I’ve seen “humans” that struggle to keep a corporeal form.
MM: I’ve seen “humans” that have more heads and arms than they should.
He turns to Lee.
“He was supposed to be guarding someone, but he lost him and went out looking for him. He’s been gone for a long amount of time meaning he could be lost somewhere. Do you know where he is?”
“Do you mind if I have a look around in here to find any clues of his whereabouts?”
Daniel looks at the masked man quizzically
D: Better get that man’s attention before he starts beating up Lee… “Hey! Face me while you’re talking, I’m not done yet…”
D: “Isn’t it what’s on the inside that counts? Does it really matter… what we look like on the outside if we could all just get along…”
