Day 4

Edward had realized the truck from the two men murdered was still there. However he didn't want to look suspicious and just take it. So, he waited for the manager to get it towed and have it taken away since no one paid to park there. After which Edward waited for them to come and tow it so he could go down the impound lot and buy it off the guy. After it got towed Edward gets a cab and arrives at the spot 20 minutes later. He goes up to guy at the counter. "You sell some of these vehicles correct"? He asks the man at the booth. "We do but only after a week" he says. "Which ones are you selling"?Edward asks him. He points to cars behind a gate lined up. "I can only sell you those" he says. Edward walks over and puts his hand on his chin and walks over to the gate and says "I dont like any of these" Edward tells him. 

"Well what else you want? Theres no more I can sell" He tells him. "What if perhaps.. I made it with your interest to sell me one of the new ones" Edward says. The man thinks and says "Well, Im listening" he says. "How about 16000 up front, and ill ow you favor" Edward says. "A favor from the Mayor" he says. "You know the Mayor"? He says. "Yes, we are very close freinds" he says. "So what car do you want"? the man asks. He goes and pionts to the blue truck the men he murdered had. It had no wheels and was on cinder blocks. "I want that one" Edward says. "Do we have  deal" Edward asks. "Ill say it conveniently went missing" The man says. "Sounds fair" Edward says with a smirk. He hands over the 16000 in cash, along with a card that was a business card with nothing but a green question mark written in highlighter and a phone number printed under it. "My contact information" he says. "Ay, whats your name guy"? The man asks. "Very good question, quote the Enigma isnt it"? he asks with a smirk. "Would you be so kind as to put some wheels on it" he asks. The man steps out of the booth and adds some wheels to it. After which he gives Edward Nygma the keys. "Thank you very much, ill be seeing you" Ed says as he gets in the truck and drives off the lot. 

Today Eds hair was a bit of a mess. He was wearing a black bowtie, a blue button up and black pants, a black leather belt and shoes black shoes. He rolls his sleeves up as he starts driving the car. He is very happy with himself. He drives home and parks that same car in the parking lot and the man comes out surprised its back. Edward was standing by the window waiting for him to say something. "I thought I towed this thing" he says. "Hello," Edward says. "Oh, hello, how are you young man"? The man was an older gentlemen about age 56 from the looks of it. "If you are wondering where it came from, I just bought it" he says. "You bought the car"? he says. "Yes, well I didnt have one and that had been sitting a few days so I thought, hey why not buy it" Edward says. "Ah, Alright then" he says. "Will you be staying the rest of the week"? The older man asks. "Yes, I shall" Edward tells him. "In fact, here" Edward says as he pulls out 400$ in cash and hands it to the man. "That should cover me for a bit right"? Edward asks. "Thank you" he says. "Are you homeless young man"? he asks Edward. "Uh, no I am from somewhere else and the Motel seemed cheaper for now until I get fully established and make friends and such" Edward says. The old man walks off "Be well young man" he says. "Thank you Sir" Edward says with a police smile. The voice pops up again "Oh, I think you should kill him Eddy" he says. "Oh will you stop it, He is the land lord, If I want to keep living here, its better I dont" Eddy says back to him. "Now quit being so thick and go away" Eddy says. "Oh talking back Eddy, didnt know you had the guts" It taunts him. 'Just shut up okay" Eddy demands. 

Day 7: 

He takes his newly legally acquired truck to pick up his date. Miss Bailey. He gets out of the big blue pick up truck and and walks up to her door. He was holding a bonquet of flowers in his hands as he rings the door bell. She is in the downstares apartment in a complex. She comes out and is very excited to see him. She runs to the door and opens it and jumps out and hugs him and gives him a kiss on the cheek. "Hey! Thanks for coming baby" she says. He takes her to Red Lobsters. Ed orders Tilapia and his date orders Salmon. For drinks they order wine. A nice white wine. They start eating their food and the young female is just staring at him with a grin on her face the whole time. "What"? Eddy asks. "Nothng, just your adorable"! she says with a little smile. "So,Eddy what do you do for a living" She asks "Oh, nothing right now" he says. "I just moved here, but I was working for the Circus before, and before that I worked as a PI. I still looking for work in this city" he say to her. He slightly changed details as to not set off any alarms if by chance she could figure out who he really was. That would be a big mess he didnt feel like dealing with right now. "You must be really smart then" she says. "What are you hobbies"? she asks "Riddles, board games, puzzle, videogames" he says. He thinks to himself he probobly made himself sound like a dork but she just giggles and says "Thats so cute" She says. "Why is she into this?" Edward thinks to himself.
