Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
While Melody and Vic move off to scout around the perimeter of the asylum, Alexander rings the bell, and a loud bonging sound travels across the gloomy landscape. After about five minutes of waiting, a figure can be seen to be making its way down the drive to the gate. As it gets closer, it is recognizable as a woman, short but powerfully built, with close-cropped hair. She wears plain grey uniform-like attire.
The woman reaches the gate but makes no attempt to open it. Glaring at the companions in an unfriendly manner, she asks, in heavily-accented English,
“What do you want?”

"Good day, ma'am," says Alexander, doffing his hat. "I'm Dr. Alexander Campbell. My colleagues and I are making inquiries into the recent murders in the East End, and we'd like to speak to someone in authority, please."

The woman looks at the investigators blankly.
“Sorry, cannot help” she finally says.

”Come along, Melody,” said Vic, taking her companion’s arm. “Let’s take a stroll and see what we can see!”
Re: Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
Melody keeps an eye out for danger, or anything helpful, as the pair stroll around the perimeter.
Re: Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
"Aye," says Alexander. "We attended an inquest where we saw two gentlemen from this institution. Since someone here has an interest in the murders, I was thinking we could work together, share information, and pool our resources to put a stop to them."

The woman looks confused for a moment, then shakes her head.
”No, can’t help” she says, then turns and retreats back up the driveway.
Meanwhile, Vic and Melody traverse the asylum’s perimeter. It’s not too large but the ground is uneven. The wall stretches solid and undamaged the entire way around, although there is no wire or broken glass impeding entry - it looks like it can be climbed.

Re: Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
"Aye, let's meet up with the ladies," agrees Alexander.

Vic studied the brickwork as she and Melody walked along the perimeter. She paused at a likely looking spot and glanced around, to see if there were any passers by who might take an interest in her climbing the wall...
Re: Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
Vic and Melody's route eventually brings them back to the entrance gate. This appears to be the only point of access.

Vic spotted Harry and Dr Campbell. ”I take it you had no luck?” she asked.

“I reckon there’s a spot back there where you might climb over the wall,” said Vic, hooking a thumb back in the direction that she and Melody had just walked.
Re: Chapter 4b: 26th - Alexander, Melody, Harry & Vic
"Were I any good at climbing and sneaking about, perhaps," says Alexander, "and were it not broad daylight."

“There’s no one about for miles,” replied Vic, looking about. “You could climb up and have a look over the wall, if nothing else?”

'I'm not really one for the athletics either' says Harry. 'Maybe we could wait 'till we know a bit more before drawing too much attention?'
