Tantei: *while being shocked turns around*
-The purple jacket dressed person and the victim disappear into the alley-
Tantei: *puts on a determined face and tries to run through the people in the city*
Once he gets to the alley........
Tantei: *sees three passageways*
One of your lovely authors: Just to be clear, he is in the middle of three passageways with the entrance behind him in which he came from.
Tantei: *looks left*
-Deadend is shown.-
Tantei: *looks forward*
-deadend is shown there as well.-
Tantei: *looks right*
-There is no dead end shown but it continues.-
Tantei: *goes down the passageway running*
Suddenly words start to echo as he runs deeper inside.
Tantei: *stops running and instead continues to walk in a sneaky way towards the echoing of voices*
The Victim: Please! Don't kill my wife! I'll do whatever you want!
The Puzzler: *in a purple jacket still and with a seemingly deep masked voice* I'm afraid that's not how it works!
The Victim: One riddle is enough, no more games please!
The Puzzler: Only I say when enough is enough, and from what I see, it seems like we need a little bit more entertainment. *says in a deep voice*
The Victim: *sobbing* P-Please..
Tantei: *coming closer but still in the shadows so that they can't see him yet*
The Puzzler: *speaks in a deep voice* Two more riddles....Get one more wrong, and your wife will be visiting the Grim Reaper very soon!
The Victim: *Shaking his head with tears still in his eyes while being handcuffed in a seat*
The Puzzler: *speaks in a deep voice* RIDDLE.......ME..........THIS!!!
The Victim: Oh no. *whimpers*
Tantei: *sticking with the shadows and staying still* (His murderous riddles!)
The Puzzler: *speaks in a deep voice* I'm tall when I'm young, and I'm short when I'm old! Whoooooooooo...ammmmmmmmm.....IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!????
The Victim: uhh..uhhh!!! A human!!!
The Puzzler: ............. INCORRECT!!!!!!!! ITS A CANDLE!! *speaks in a loud, but graty voice still*
The Victim: NOOOO!!! *continues on crying*
Tantei: *in the shadows still* (Tch. I gotta stop this!) *comes out of the shadows, stepping on a branch*
-A loud crunch is made-
The Puzzler: *turns around*
Tantei: (Sh*t!)
The Puzzler: Well well well look who it is. Mr Wannabe Detective, TANTEI HIRONO *laughs menacingly*. How are you?
Tantei: *shocked* How do you know my name?
The Puzzler: Aaaah don't worry about the small details. Let's enjoy ourselves, shall we? We don't want to bore our guest over here, do we?
Tantei: *continues to listen to him/her with a serious face* (This person is dangerous- I need to save this guy fast before The Puzzler catches me)
