Alyssa and Bruno

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa nods and approaches the manager. "Pardon me," she says to him. "We'd like to ask you some questions about the three men who were recently staying in Room 6."

[kabukiman]

-Don't know anything- he says still reading.

[welsh]

Outside the hotel, Olson and Bruno consult about what they have learned. When Bruno mentions he wants to check out the apartment, Olson nods.

[Mr. Handy]

"They were guests here, so surely you remember them," says Alyssa. "The way they looked and smelled, I don't think you could possibly forget them. They've signed the register, so you know the names they gave and which nights they spent here, and you'd also know if they had any visitors or if they made or received any telephone calls."

[kabukiman]

-Hum, ok. They registered as Jim, Jack and Brad from Boston. I don't have a phone, and they came in a car. They didn't make any noise neitheir they were drunk. But I had to hopen the windoes when they leaved because the smell. Nobody came to visist them, they just make some questions about a knife. They have leave today early, about 9h in a hurry. They paid in cash. They were here 2 nights.

[Mr. Handy]

"What last names did they sign the register with?" asks Alyssa. "You have to give a last name when you sign the register. Did you see them carrying anything unusual when they left? And what kind of car did they have?"

[kabukiman]

-Let me see. Hum, Gilliam. They were probably brothers, having the same name and face. They used an old ford-T and they leaved with a huge bag. Didn't asked anything, not my business.

[Mr. Handy]

"An old Model T," says Alyssa. "Any color as long as it's black, as Henry Ford would say, I suppose. Did the Gilliams leave anything behind?"

[kabukiman]

-Yes, some can of beer, cigars, and stuff like that. The cleaning women have already put all that in the garbage.

[Mr. Handy]

"Did they leave any papers or notes?" asks Alyssa.

[kabukiman]

-That I remember no.

[Mr. Handy]

"Where could we find the women who cleaned the room?" asks Alyssa. "Maybe they'll remember if they found something. Also, could we please look through Room 6 to see if the Gilliams left anything that the cleaning women didn't find? I'm guessing you haven't been able to rent it to anyone else yet due to the odor."

[kabukiman]

OOC: I have edit the answer.

-The cleaning lady is now cooking in the kitchen. And about the room, yes, you can see it.

[Mr. Handy]

"Thank you," says Alyssa, collecting the key to Room 6. "I'll bring it back when we're done. We'll talk to the maid first. Which way is the kitchen, please?" Once the manager tells her where to go, she leads the detective to the kitchen to find the cleaning woman.

[kabukiman]

The kitchen stinks. An old women about 70 years old, short and fat is washing some potatoes in a bucket full of dark water.

[Mr. Handy]

"Pardon me," says Alyssa to the cleaning woman. "I understand that you were the one who cleaned Room 6, where those three men who reeked of fish had been staying. Did you by any chance find anything they left behind other than the usual garbage? Did they leave any papers or notes?"

[kabukiman]

-Papers? I don't seem to remember- she says looking with a peculiar look at you...

[Mr. Handy]

Alyssa regards the old woman and tries to understand her motivations. Does she want money to "jog her memory"? she thinks. Or will she be offended if I offer it to her? "Please, try to remember," says Alyssa. "These three men are implicated in some serious crimes, and someone's life is at stake. There was an article about it in the extra edition of the Arkham Advertiser. Is there anything I can do to help you recall if you found anything?"

[kabukiman]

-Well, I really need to buy a meal if you undestand me...

OCC- Going to jump through this

Bruno reenters the Lobby and goes to the desk manager to ask what happened to the girl. Then overhearing the conversation, follows the voices to where Alyssa questions the old woman.
