Script
West Hemingway Heights Street
You've gathered as much information as you can. Return to the police station and share your findings with everyone.
Luke: What's on your mind? You have been frowning this whole time.
You: I'm just thinking... why didn't Captain Morgan ever mention that Anne Croft had a boyfriend?
Luke: Theoretically, the police have investigated everyone related to Anne Croft, so they must have more information than us...
Luke: But Captain Morgan seems to know nothing about Anne Croft's boyfriend.
You: Is someone deliberately withholding information from the police, or... maybe no one knew anything about her boyfriend.
Luke: Remember the botanical garden staff we came across on the street? He said Anne Croft is quiet and a little anti-social...
Luke: So, I think it's more likely that Anne Croft didn't discuss her personal life with her colleagues.
You: She's getting more and more suspicious.
Luke: Let's not worry about it for now. Let's just go back and tell Captain Morgan about what we've found.
You: Yeah, no more thinking about it. Let's go.
Return to the police station and discuss your findings.
Police Officer: You're back. Great! Captain Morgan and Mr. Wing were just thinking about calling you two.
You: Is something going on?
Police Officer: We've made progress cracking into the website. Captain Morgan was going to call you back in to discuss a follow-up investigation.
Luke: Great! We're heading back now.
Police Station
Captain Morgan has had a breakthrough! Report your clues to him.
You: Captain Morgan, I heard that progress has been made in the investigation of the black market website.
Darius Morgan: Yes. We've intercepted some account information and transaction records, including Anne Croft's personal account.
Luke: Is there anything about the Sky Gladiolus sales?
Darius Morgan: No. There are signs of duplicates and forgeries in her transaction records, so we need to wait for further analysis.
Marius: The data is very complicated. It will take two to three days for the Big Data Lab to process it all.
Vyn: Other than that, there has not been much substantial progress made.
Artem: How did your investigation go? Have you found anything?
The room suddenly quiets down. Everyone is focused on you.
You: Luke and I found that Anne Croft had a boyfriend and they were very close...
You list the clues that you found one by one...
After hearing your presentation, the whole group looks surprised and a little confused.
Darius Morgan: That's strange... No one has ever mentioned this to us during our prior investigations.
Marius: Is it possible that... she was hurt by her boyfriend, so she didn't want to bring it up? That's why none of her colleagues knew about it.
Vyn: If she broke up with him in a failing relationship...
Vyn: Then why did she go to Penny's Comfort Foods every week for three years and sit alone at their old spot?
You: Based on what Winnie Cooper said, it sounds like Anne Croft was missing her boyfriend rather than... trying to escape from her memories.
Artem: Croft must have had her reasons for withholding information about her boyfriend. This is one of the things we definitely need to investigate.
You: Then I'll focus on investigating her boyfriend for the next few days and see if I can find any valuable information.
Vyn: [Player], if you need any help, feel free to ask.
Luke: It's time for me to step up to the plate. Don't worry, I'll find this guy.
Marius: Let's use Big Data Lab to conduct a full search so we can find him faster.
Vyn: I suggest that the police do thorough interviews with the staff at the botanical garden to see if any more information can be found.
Darius Morgan: No problem. I'll arrange for that later.
Darius Morgan: That's it for today. I'll let you all know when the transaction information is compiled.
You: Thanks, Captain Morgan. I hope we uncover the truth soon...
