With the Wind (Phantom Thief!Tommy, Police!Tubbo, Detective!Ranboo)

It's a new lead

(1st Person PoV: Tubbo's)

"Oh sh*t oh sh*t oh sh*t! Finally we have a lead!" Charlie was running around excitedly, like a headless chicken.

"Charlie! Sit the f*ck down and listen to Ted!" Schlatt snapped.

Charlie jumped onto a chair and sat there, comfortably.

"Ok so according to the calling card, we can pick out important information. Kaitō Raccoon is planning on stealing again, there is a special event soon and how he loves history. It's rather obvious since this is a short calling card," Ted explained, getting right to the point.

"The Museum of Riff? Isn't that the same family who has that missing guy? The archeologist?" I asked.

"Yes, we don't know if there is any relevance to his disappearance in this case," Ted sighed.

Yeah he disappeared recently and there are still no leads to his disappearance, I thought.

Then again, Jared is behind the case so maybe that's why.

People could be dying for all he cares and he still wouldn't get any leads.

I sighed rather loudly before picking up my phone.

"He is either really stupid or really smart," I noted.

"How come?" Charlie asked.

"Of course we would pick up that detail about history. Name one museum that is more popular than the Museum of Riff," I explained.

"True...but if that's the case, then why say it in a mysterious way? He could have outright said that he's going to steal from the Museum of Riff," Schlatt pointed out.

"Unless, that's what he expects us to do. He wants us to think that this is a trick by not directly saying that he will steal from the museum, making us overthink things," Charlie suggested.

"Maybe...well first things first, we have to warn the Museum of Riff people," Ted said and the rest of us nodded.

We drove over there and had a small meeting with the people who were running the museum.

"Thank you for warning us. We'll have extra security for the event," a gruff man with a brown, greying beard said.

"It's what we do," Ted nodded.

I looked around the room. It was dusty. Like really dusty.

"Has anyone used this room?" I asked to myself and quietly.

"Not since Pix disappeared," a voice behind me replied and I jumped in surprise.

It was a guy with blond hair and was wearing a janitor outfit, complete with a panda hat.

"Ah, sorry about that, my good friend. Didn't mean to scare you," he apologized.

"It's fine," I assured him. I looked at his name tag that was stitched on his shirt.

Oli

"You were wondering if anyone used this room, right?" Oli then asked.

"Hmm? Yes, I was. Pix Riffs was the one who disappeared correct?" I asked and he nodded.

"This is usually his work space where he studies and researches ancient artifacts. However, he has been going more and more to his other job at TakenCorp," Oli explained.

"His other job?" I asked.

"He works in the Archeology Department. That's apparently a thing," Oli replied.
