[QUOTE="ghostcat, post: 5160324, member: 30034"] Percy is just walking out of T's door when his boss stops him in his tracks. Turning back into the office, he waits while T talks to his friend. Originally impatient, he becomes more and more intrigued at the part of the conversation he can hear. Instructed to collect a police escort and carry out a complete investigation of Long's warehouses, Percy says [color=cyan]"OK boss.I'm on it."[/color] and leaves the room. Arriving at Scotland Yard, Percy parks his car and walks up to the special branch offices. He knocks on the special branch Commander's door and enters. Inside are three men, Commander Shaw, whom Percy has meet a few times but does not really know, and two strangers. [color=cyan]"Good evening Commander, I trust T has been in touch.[/color] [b]"Evening Agent Ambleton-Smythe. Yes indeed. I have a selected two of my best men to accompany you; Detective Inspector Regan and Detective Sergeant Carter. DI Regan will be in charge of the uniform contingent.[/b] Percy nods at the two police officers and says [color=cyan]"Evening gentlemen. I apologies that there is no time for the usual pleasantries but the situation is urgent. Shall we go?"[/color] Arriving at the dock, Percy waits until the police secure the warehouse. Once Regan comes out and tells him it's all clear, Percy considers and says to him [color=cyan]"Right. I'll interrogate Long's guards first, then you can process them, while I continue the investigation on the docks and in the warehouse. Can you please arrange that the ones I have talked to don't have a chance to speak to the ones I haven't."[/color] Percy enters the warehouse and quickly goes to the office. He sits on the end of the desk, with an empty chair in front of him. When he has set up the office the way he wants, he shouts [color=cyan]"Right Inspector. Wheel in the first one."[/color] Not been particularly good at interrogations, he decides to bluff by pretending that he knows more than he does. Along with this he intends to use the carrot and the stick. Therefore, as each guard is brought in he says [color=cyan]"Right sit there. Your boss Sir Archivald Long is in a great deal of trouble.
