Tony takes out the photo of
Veronica that
Mrs. Chadwick had given them and shows it to
Jennifer.
"Have you seen her before?" he asks.

Jennifer stares for a few moments at the black and white phot of Veronica Chadwick,
"Nice looking girl. The kind of face you would remember, and yes I do recall her a while back looking to get a train to the village of Naushau as I recall. I told her there is no direct train, she would have to take one to the last stop on the Joban line and then a bus to the village."
Her brow furrows, "I asked her why she would want to go to such a place. She muttered something about meeting someone, who she didn't say. I put her on the train myself. She struck me as a very confused individual, spoke excellent Japanese, though a very stilted almost archaic form, odd for an American"

"She has been acting very oddly the past several weeks," says
Tony.
"We'll need to follow in her footsteps to Naushau, and beyond. We have reason to believe she went to the Aokigahara Forest from there, which is why we're interested in it. Do you know how long ago she left for Naushau?"

Jennifer turns to
Tony,
"Hmm, five days ago. She traveled on the 09:30 train from the central station"

Tooy checks his watch.
"Then we'd better leave soon if we're going to catch the 9:30 train today," he says.

"5 days huh, we are catching up the. Perhaps you'd like to come with us on our Journey Jennifer?" Ted finishes his last Saki and a couple bites of Sushi that was on the platter. "How far to the train station from here?"

Jennifer stands and bows politely from the waist, "The station is no more than ten minutes by taxi. Sadly my duties keep me here, but in Mr Wellington you have an excellent translator. But one word of warning, remember that Japanese people are not used to American brashness"
She moves towards the door.

Professor Krugman: "Even some of we Americans never get use to American brashness. I'm afraid. One last question... this village... Naushau. What sort of a place it it? Anything at all that you might know would be helpful."

Jennifer halts in her progress towards the door, and replies to
Professor Krugman without turning,
"Other than allowing a spendid view of Fujiama and being close to the magnificent lake Saiko...No it is merely a village. Why it should be a location of special choice, I have no idea"
She continues to the door, she places a hand on its handle and turns it,
"Oh, one last word though, take care"
With that she opens the door and is gone into the busy street outside.

"Interesting lady there, sorry if I seemed a bit brash there, I don't abide lies", Ted fills up his plate and kicks back to enjoy the meal. "I think we got time to finish lunch if the station is only 10 minutes away."

Bridget gathers her clutch and rises from the table as their hostess departs.
"Well gents, we'd best not waste any time!" she chirps, already striding towards the door. "I'll see if I can't hail a taxi for us."

Ted finishes his meal and pays, being sure to keep the receipt for Ms. Chadwick, then goes to the train for the trip to the village.

Tooy has absolutely no idea what makes Jennifer tick. Then again, he can't understand why women in general act the way they do.
