I’ll see about alleviating them of more than pocket change if possible, but let’s put some restraint on this one – nothing risky enough that getting caught means a magistrate with all the love of a castrated troll in heat.”“Table the framing schemes until we find out what happened to the kiddo. We can always come back for another picnic at the manor based on new leads in the case, whether or not we made them up. Don’t worry, P, one way or the other we’ll get paid well enough for you to hire your own puppy-kicker.”[/sblock]---At Dododdod’s tower“When we come around to it – and I think any investigation of the Roots should wait until after we’ve visited the Glasstons – there’s two angles of approach I think are plausible.”“The first,” Woe picks up a piece of chalk and draws a curved line on the board connecting the bulleted point regarding the Roots with the point regarding the City Guard “is going by the guards implicated in the latest Screamer issue. They likely got burned because they’ve been looking into the gang for quite a while, suggesting they have some experience with operations and whereabouts of Roots members, and how best to deal with them. I have a history with the force and they would want to clear their name from media branding – should be more than enough motivation to help us out.”“If that doesn’t work out, there’s Marco. He’s been dealing with the Roots for so long that he’s bound to know a thing or two about how they operate, how to get in touch with them, et cetera. We might even be able to use him as mediator, should it come to it.”“Anyhow, I suggest our next stop be the Glasston manor. If Pal is going to be tied up in the library for the next couple of hours, I’m thinking of hitting the streets to see what I can learn about our suspects.  How about if we meet back here about four hours past noon, go over any new findings, then head out for the Glasstons?”</blockquote>
