Message: <blockquote data-quote="izillama" data-source="post: 4572267" data-attributes="member: 79171">Clover kept her face a blank mask to conceal how idiotic she thought Ruby's plan was. But she did manage to voice her thoughts, "That is if there is someone to blame, Ruby. Despite the little regard that I have for the police and their capabilities as law enforcers, I truly doubt that they are directly responsible for any harm which might have befallen Suzie. Additionally, I doubt that they would allow anyone that far into the building to abduct her. Honestly, I think it's highly probable that Suzie might have disappeared on her own. Think about it. She's afraid. And fat, overbearing men with handcuffs want to sit down and chat with her? She probably freaked out and ran out on them without looking. I doubt that she'd be able to make it out of the building, but I think it's possible that she might just be playing a game of hide-and-seek with them and they're just too pig-headed to find her, opting instead to venture the guess that she was abducted."Seeing the fire in Ruby's eyes begin to die, Clover went in for the sucker punch, still remaining perfectly calm and outwardly devoid of all emotion, "Besides: Let's assume for a moment that she was, in fact, abducted. Where do we start, Ruby? We have no leads. Heck, I don't even know where the police station is! But let's face it: we have no leads on our own plight, never mind hers. And, really, there's no reason for her to have been dragged any further into this mess than she already was. There's no use in us running rampant all over the city in a hope of finding her. What do we ask people? Hi, I'm looking for a missing child? So are a quarter of the parents in this city. So I say, if Suzie wants to be found, let her be found. If she cannot be found, let us wait until we think this through and come up with some answers."Inwardly, Clover was annoyed that Ruby had to let her animal side control her so adamantly. She was too impulsive and, Clover thought, such a vice would get her into trouble one day.</blockquote>
