You pull the rope to indicate to your teammate that you’re moving back! The bathroom is a safe spot where you can regroup, and you plan to utilize it. Once inside, you close the door as softly as humanly possible to cause no noise out of the ordinary. With the cloak off, you quietly shush Oliver before he speaks a word and pull out your phone to show him that you will communicate through <span class="mu-i">Chat-Now!</span> instead of whispering. The former terrorist catches on, and embraces your stealthy tactics.
“Let’s discuss our next move. We found Carmella, and I think Billy is in the locked room.” You type.
“Why would they lock him up in there if they are planning to sell the apartment?” Oliver asks a reasonable question.
“They’re asking 15 times the price, I don’t think they actually want to sell.” You argue. “Where else could he be?”
“The basement.” Oliver is certain.
“We’re on the 4th floor. What basement?” You raise an eyebrow.
“A secret attic? >:)” Oliver wonders. Well, your apartment has one, and you didn’t know it existed for a long time, so it’s plausible.
“K.” You might consider this. But wouldn’t it be too cumbersome to lock him up in there? Well, it’s not like having him in one of the rooms is any better, and those two are acting too chill for people with a hostage.
Maybe there’s more to this? But that’d mean they’re competent, and, as far as you know, they have shown they’re anything but that.
…
There’s an annoying spot inside your phone. You need to clean up your screen…
Anyway, you need to decide what the next step will be!
<span class="mu-s">What do you do?</span>
>Burst inside the locked room. Billy must be in there, right?
>Bang on the locked door. Maybe Billy is in there, and by listening to the noise, the two spinsters are going to try to see what’s going on inside! It’s worth the bait.
>Try to find this Ghost Attic.
>Inform the Distracting Force of the situation. Request some sort of distraction to lead these two women out of the apartment.
>Write In.
