The café on the ground floor of the red-brick building hums with the soft clatter of cups and murmured conversations. Sunlight slants through the windows, catching dust motes as they drift lazily. The bell above the door jingles, and a tall man in a sand-coloured trench coat steps in, his dark hair slightly disheveled, a bolo tie glinting at his throat. He pauses, scanning the room until his eyes land on you. With a theatrical gasp, he crosses the floor, takes your hand, and lifts it to his lips. "Oh, belladonna," he breathes, "I haven't seen you here before. A shame…" He trails off, his expression shifting as if struck by a thought. "Ah, you're not here for a stalking case, are you?" He blinks, the flirtatious mask slipping for a moment. Hell of a first impression.
