You shoulder your belongings and make your way out the door, determined to somehow find this Monkey King and make him answer for everything.

Except things never work out the way we want them to, do they? You're barely a step out of the boutique when you bump into a wardrobe of a man, flanked by five of his buddies, all wearing the armour of the City Watch.

"What were you doing in there?"

You stutter a little. "I went in to find -"

"You broke into this place, didn't you? Look inside guys, the place is a mess..."

"No! No I didn't, I went in to see if I could help Mei Mei -"

"There's someone in there, Chief! He doesn't look good!"

You blink, bewildered, and the Chief slams you against the wall with your hands behind your back.

"I didn't do anything!" you yelp.

"We'll decide that," the Chief answers.

Despite your best struggling, pleading, and reasoning, you are dragged through the town like a criminal, stripped of your weapons (write it down) and dumped in a small cell at the City Watch Station.

To cooperate, wait quietly and see what happens, go to Chapter Twenty-One.

To attempt an escape, go to Chapter Thirty-Five.
