Night

Inessa left L'rhome behind heading back to her office. When she peeked behind her, the Male Miqo'te was long gone. At least she was left with a feeling of doing something good. Karma was on her side. Night was calm and chilly. The sky was sprinkled with stars as usual here. Certainly an evening worth enjoying. Yet... something was in the air. Something that hadn't let her instincts lay to rest. When she got back to her office and laid to bed, she peeked once more at the note, The Flea has left under the fake hat.Â
"Time's running out, that's for sure. At least for those, which souls are not pure." - she mutterd. - "What the hell does he means by that...?"
Day 1
Ul'dah - Meiko's room
Night
After a tough day of wondering, investigating and finding riddles, Meiko went back to her room in The Quicksand. As she sat on her bed she peeked once more at the note, throwing knife she found.
"Yet I suggest you hurry it up, Make haste. There are more of them shinies that match my taste." - She muttered as she laid her head on a pillow. - "What is he plotting...?"

Early Morning

Vincent had a sleepless night. His head being on the edge of a blade was certainly one of his concerns that left him sleepless. His tired, bloodshot eyes laid restless on the entrance to the office as he was awaiting someone. Suddenly Grad barged in.
- "Sir!"
- "You again... Hope you secured the evidence? Found the hat?"
- "No sir!"
- "Great job..." Fitzroy rolled his eyes.
- "The one we've found was a fake. But there's some other news!"
- "Bad or worse?"
- "It's a disaster, sir!"
- "Splendid..."
- "The Flea struck again!" - Grad almost yelled. Vincent slammed his fist on the desk.
- "WHAT?! Where?!"
- "The Goblet again! His victim was Northman Baxter!"
- "Northman Baxter? This filthy rich Cat-lover? What what on Hydaelyn "The Flea" would want from him?!"
- "His most precious cat's litter box."
- "Seriously...?" - Vincent quirked his eyebrow as he couldn't believe what he heard.
- "It was made of gold, sir!"
- "What on... I don't even... Who would buy such thing?! What the hell is wrong with theese rich people?! What will be next?! A diamond diaper?!"
- "Is that even a thing, sir...?"
- "Shut up!"
- "Sir!"
- "So... what do we know about this... What was his name again?"
- "Northman Baxter. Well... he's famous for loving cats and 'Mr. Snugglecheeks' is his favourite so he bought him a litter box made of gold... Also we have quite a file on him. He's infamous in the underworld for smuggling some illegal materials. It appears that he's one of our sponsors too."
- "Shit, you are serious... I thought you were joking."
- "No jokes sir. I'm on duty."
- "Boyscout... Send letter to this Hara-Lady. Let her do this. Also get some boys and secure the crime scene!"
- "Sir!" - as the rookie saluted, he left.
- "Litter box... Where is this world coming to?" - Vincent muttered as he rubbed his tired eyes.

Inessa was woken up by knocking on her door. She crawled out of bed and head to open them. It was a moogle courier.
- "A letter for you, Kupo!"
She'd open the envelope.
Quote:Dear Miss Hara.
It's me again. Your friendly neighbourhood Captain Vincent Fitzroy. I certainly couldn't let you forget about me. Guess what happened. The Flea did his thing again. This time his victim was Northman Baxter. One of our generous sponsors famous for his love towards Coeurl Kittens. I have a favor to ask... Would you kindly go there and check what happened? The adress is as follows:
The Goblet Ward 18, Plot 43.
Say hi to Mr. Snugglecheeks from me!
Yours trully
Captain Vincent Fitzroy
of the Brass Blades.
Day 2Â
Ul'dah - Meiko's room
Early Morning

Meiko was woken up by the sound of blade suddenly driven into the wood. She immidiately stood up alarmed, yet no one was here. The sunlight struck her eyes as she covered them with a hand that was holding one of her daggers. She was alarmed by the sound... She looked up an opened window. Amano realised that she'd left it closed during the night. There was a knife stuck within the shutter and a note pinned by it. The Doman approached and tear down the note givin a quick peek upon the knife that looked the same as the one she found yesterday. Then she looked upon a piece of paper.
"What the hell...?" - she muttered, confused by what she just saw.
