Annabel: Alright everyone we're here. <Rank> <Name>, let me be the first to welcome you to High-Top!
Isabel: Marco and I grew up around here, so we can say from experience this place is pretty progressive politically. Not to mention a lot of the people are really nice around here.
Annabel: That may be so, but if what we learned from Horatio Kowalski's belongings, here is where we'll find the black market's drug trade.
Hunter: Well since we also put an end to Mr. Reus' reign of terror, I'm sure this'll be nothing!
Annabel: Don't get so cocky Captain Sandoval, who knows what they intend to do to ensure we don't ruin their operation.
Annabel: <Name>, I'm sending you, Detective Bryant, and Lieutenant Watson to investigate Warrenville National Park. That place has many blind spots, easy for the black market to take advantage of.
Isabel: Right, I'll grab Sonia and meet you there <Name>.

Chapter 1[]

Investigate National Park
Sonia: Well, that's not gonna be helpful. This man looks like he fell off a cliff.
Isabel: This doesn't look to be a fall, check out the stomach, it looks like he sustained some bruises. I don't think was a simple misstep, this was murder!
Sonia: In that case we better get this man to autopsy right away, hopefully Daphne can get something for us.
Sonia: We'll still need a witness, someone who can tell us who this guy is. Hey, aren't those pieces of a badge?
Isabel: Looks like it, we better piece them back together. And if you want to search those rocks while you're at it <Name>, then let's get digging.
Isabel: I didn't think a murder like this could happen in my home, but we better make sure whoever did it won't get off easy!

Autopsy the Victim's Body
Daphne: You know, I didn't think gravity could be so brutal, but I guess a fall into a rocky ground will do that to you.
Isabel: So the fall did kill him?
Daphne: Yep, and there were plenty of bruises around the victim's abdominal area. But no defensive bruises on his knuckles, so the killer must've caught him off guard when they pushed him off.
Sonia: Was there anything about our killer?
Daphne: Yes actually, the abdominal area yielded plenty of results. I found traces of pine, and the smell was still fresh.
Daphne: Here, have a smell for yourself.
Sonia: I'd... rather not.
Isabel: *sniff sniff* Hey you're right, that's some pine smell.
Daphne: And if your victim got this smell on them, then chances are your killer will too.
Sonia: Guess now we'll have to keep our eyes AND our noses opened for our pine-scented killer.

Examine Pile of Rocks
Isabel: Is that a paper cup you found in those rocks?
Sonia: It looks like there's some blood on it, we better see what Victor has to say about it.

Analyze Paper Cup
Victor: Hello again guys, guess what, my novel on Reus has gotten many hits online!
Isabel: Glad to here Victor, but did you have time to analyze the cup we sent you?
Victor: Oh right, sorry. Anyways, the blood belonged to your victim, but the contents of the cup proved to be quite interesting to say the least.
Sonia: How so?
Victor: I found a mixture of sugar and water, and it had been frozen. These are the ingredients of a slushy.
Victor: Daphne told me there was no trace of any slushies in the victim's stomach, so it had to be the killer who drank it.
Sonia: Well if our killer likes it cold, then prison won't be too different for them.

Examine Broken Badge
Sonia: Alright, looks like this is an animal ranger's badge!
Isabel: It belongs to a certain Samuel Woods, he must be around here. Let's go see the animal ranger and see if he noticed anything.

Talk to Samuel about the victim's presence at the park
Isabel: Are you Samuel Woods?
Samuel: That I am, welcome to Warrenville National Park. How can I help you?
Sonia: We're with the Warrenville Police Department and we found a man murdered closeby. Do you recognize him?
Samuel: Let me see, well holy smokes!
Samuel: The man here is Duncan Huffman, I've got him trying to hunt in the park for sometime.
Isabel: Hunt here? But that's illegal!
Samuel: Trust me I know, these poor animals have enough trouble on their own, and we don't need anyone killing them!
Samuel: Duncan just complained he didn't have any good hunting grounds anymore, but that's no excuse for breaking the law!
Sonia: Do you know anyone who might've wanted him dead?
Samuel: Duncan's mindset was put towards an older time, so as you can imagine, he's not exactly a favorite amongst most people here.
Samuel: But killing of any kind is not condoned in this park, or anywhere else! I hope you find them soon.

Isabel: Well, he seemed nice, and very caring.
Sonia: Right, we at least know who our victim is, and since he was pushed off that cliff...
Sonia: I saw we should head up and take a look for ourselves.

Investigate Cliff
Sonia: If our victim was pushed off here, maybe his killer left something behind.
Isabel: Well this backpack certainly raises some eyebrows. Who'd leave this, we better look through to see who owns this.
Isabel: And who the heck would drop this inhaler? They really oughta keep a better grip on their belongings.
Sonia: I can't tell who this belongs to, but this tag might help. "If lost, return to..."
Sonia: The snow must've faded the name on the tag, we better recover it.

Examie Inhaler
Isabel: Well, it looks like whoever owns this inhaler was nice enough to leave their name on it to be returned to them.
Sonia: It belongs to a Danny Herman, we better give this back to him and ask why he was here.

Ask Danny why he was at the cliff
Danny: Hello officers, how are you?
Isabel: Hey little boy, we're looking for Danny Herman, you know him?
Danny: That's me, hey that's my inhaler!
Sonia: A child? Oh dear.. I'm not good at this.
Danny: Not good at what?
Isabel: Danny, we're investigating a murder, a man named Duncan Huffman was pushed off a cliff.
Danny: Mr. Huffman? The hunter guy Mr. Huffman?
Danny: Honestly, I didn't like him, he hurts animals.
Sonia: We found this inhaler by the cliff he was pushed off of, can you tell us why it was there?
Danny: I lost it a few days ago when I was playing in the snow. I felt bad about losing it, but my uncle told me he'd get me a new one.
Isabel: You live with your uncle?
Danny: Uh huh, my mom's out on a business trip and my dad's been gone for a few years.
Sonia: He left?
Danny: Nope, he died.
Isabel: Oh, well we'll come talk to you again if we need to. Bye Danny.

Examine Backpack
Isabel: Hey a trophy, who'd keep something like this in their backpack?
Sonia: Apparently, someone named Umbrielle Vaughn. This does look to be her's.
Isabel: If she was here, she might've seen Mr. Huffman before he died. We better go see this Umbrielle Vaughn.

Talk to Umbrielle about her hike near the crime scene
Isabel: Miss Vaughn, did you leave your backpack at the national park?
Unbrielle: Yes actually, I was wondering where it was. I left it behind so I could do some hiking, but I kinda went far.
Sonia: You take your hiking pretty seriously I take it?
Umbrielle: Very much so, I need to if I have any chances at winning this year's hiking competition again!
Isabel: Anyways, a man named Duncan Huffman was pushed off the cliff your backpack was near. Do you know him?
Umbrielle: I can't say that name rings a bell, I don't have time to know people who aren't the competiton, so I gotta keep training. See ya!
Sonia: Well she was no help, we better find some people who knew Duncan if we're gonna get anywhere in this investigation.

Back at the station...
Isabel: Looks like a trip home only yielded yet another murder investigation so far.
Sonia: And from the looks of it, our victim wasn't that liked around here.
Sonia: Danny and Samuel didn't like him due to his hobby for hunting, especially around the national park.
Isabel: But it doesn't look like we're going anywhere so far. If only we knew more about our victim-
Luke: Hey guys!
Sonia: EEEEK! Luke, stop doing that!
Luke: Sorry, but I got some news for you.
Luke: I found where your victim was before he died!

Chapter 2[]


Isabel: You did?
Luke: Yep, Kenny and I did some digging around, and it turns out your victim had a cabin high up in the mountains.
Luke: And sources tell me he was last seen there about 2 hours before he was killed. Given the distance from that to the crime scene, there's no way he could've stopped at anywhere else before going there.
Sonia: Really? Can you give us the coordinates so we can check it out?
Luke: Sure, here you go!
Isabel: Alright, let's go check out that cabin.

Investigate Victim's Cabin
Sonia: Well, this is pretty... homely.
Isabel: Given our victim was a hunter, I can see why you seem a bit unnerved. But anyways, find anything <Name>?
Isabel: Ah, our victim had an answering machine. Looks like there's one message he hasn't read yet, we better unlock it and see who left it.
Sonia: And why's this rifle on the ground, you think the victim would keep his guns in a safer spot.
Isabel: Someone must've placed it here, let's dust it for fingerprints and see who touched it.

Examine Answering Machine
Isabel: Nice work, let's play the message and see who left it.
Answering Machine: "Hello? This is your father, Ellis speaking. I just wanna see how you're holdin' up. Call me back when you can."
Sonia: So that was his father? Oh man, I hate breaking the news to family members.
Isabel: Be strong Sonia, we don't have much of a choice. Let's go speak to Mr. Huffman and break the news to him.

Inform Ellis of his son's murder
Sonia: Mr. Huffman, we're with the Warrenville PD, its about your son.
Ellis: Oh great, what kind of trouble did he get himself into now?
Isabel: Sadly, the kind that resulted in his death. Your son was found murdered.
Ellis: What? You gotta be kiddin' me, my boy?
Ellis: This can't be right, he's just like his father, tough as nails. He wouldn't die so easily, especially not before me.
Sonia: I'm afraid its true, we have positive ID if you want to be sure.
Ellis: Damn, that boy learned well from me. I spent so much time teaching him how to hunt that pine smell kinda stuck to us.
Sonia: You're telling me, that's a strong pine scent you got there.
Ellis: Why thank ya. You better find who did this to my son, I want them in chains before the day is done, you hear!
Isabel: Rest assured Mr. Huffman, we're working on finding your son's killer, and we don't need you to tell us to be quick.

Examine Rifle
Isabel: Well, that's quite a lot of fingerprints on the gun. I don't think they ALL belong to the victim.
Sonia: I guess Marco will have to tell us about them to be sure. Off to the lab!

Analyze Fingerprints
Sonia: So Marco, we can imagine you found the victim's prints on that rifle, right?
Marco: A good number of them were your vic's, but he wasn't the only one surprisingly.
Marco: The other prints actually belonged to the father of a close friend of mine, Cesar San Martin. He owns a gun store in town.
Isabel: A gun store? That definetly explains the prints, we better go see this Cesar and ask if he saw the vic recently.

Talk to Cesar about his last meeting with the victim
Cesar: Ah, hello officers, welcome to my store. Here to peruse my fine selection?
Isabel: No, we're hear on business. Do you know a Duncan Huffman?
Cesar: Of course, he's one of my best customers! Always enjoyed looking through my items here.
Sonia: Sorry to say Mr. San Martin, but he won't be back to peruse, we found him murdered earlier.
Cesar: What? He's been killed, was he shot?
Sonia: Nope, pushed off a cliff.
Cesar: That's even worse! I wouldn't want that on my worst enemy to be honest.
Cesar: He seemed nice, a bit old-fashioned, but alright. Though that pine scent he came in with ended up kinda sticking. I feel like I smell like it all the time.
Isabel: I can tell, you might wanna do something about it if you don't like it so much.
Cesar: Perhaps, but maybe later. Right now, I could use a slushy. Come back anytime officers!

Isabel: Well, he didn't seem like much help. For someone Marco knows, I just have this... bad feeling about him.
Sonia: Maybe its just your intuition speaking, but for know we'll need to rely on the evidence. And right now, we're lacking in that department.
Sonia: Let's head back to where we found the body, maybe we missed something on our first search.

Investigate Park Sign
Sonia: I don't know, but I think this pile of branches seem out of place.
Isabel: Its not just you Sonia, go ahead and have a look <Name> if you think its important.
Isabel: And check it out, our victim is on this photo! But who's the other guy?
Sonia: Luckily that's what we have the database for, and we can check out this faded newspaper too.
Sonia: Hopefully we'll start getting some answers that'll point to our killer soon.

Examine Man in Photo
Sonia: The man is one Lloyd Herman. Hmm, Herman?
Isabel: Hey, that wouldn't happen to be Danny's father, would he?
Sonia: According to the database, he is. I didn't think his father was friends with the victim.
Sonia: Maybe its best we get the details from Danny.

Ask Danny about his father's relation to the victim
Danny: Hello again officers, want a slushy? Mom just got some.
Isabel: Thanks for the offer, but we're good. Mind telling us about your father and Duncan?
Danny: Oh, I forgot to tell you that. Sorry.
Sonia: Its alright, just tell us the details please.
Danny: Well, dad was a hunter like Mr. Huffman was. They used to go out and hunt all the time.
Danny: I loved my dad, but mom always told me to be careful around him. I don't know why.
Isabel: Maybe she just didn't want you to know about what his 'work' entailed?
Danny: I really don't know, but I haven't seen him in a long time. I hope he's okay, what if he ended up like Mr. Huffman?
Isabel: We can't say, but hopefully that's not the case.

Examine Pile of Branches
Sonia: Well now I realize why these branches were set aside, this pole is covered in blood1
Isabel: We better get this to the lab to make sure, we'll need to know what this pole is.

Analyze Pole
Isabel: So Victor, what's the status on that pole?
Victor: The blood on this pole is your victim's, must've gotten there when the victim fell.
Sonia: But what kind of pole is this?
Victor: Interesting you ask, this is actually a hiking pole.
Victor: Hikers use it all the time when traversing the rocky terrain, something your victim wouldn't use given his 'work'.
Isabel: Well if this fell with the victim, chances are this is our killer's. Which means they hike!
Sonia: <Name> brings up a good point, Umbrielle Vaughn is a champion hiker, we better add this to her profile.

Examine Faded Newspaper
Isabel: So what'd get from the newspaper?
Isabel: "Local hunter outraged, hunting grounds unavailable to civilians due to hiking competition. Umbrielle Vaughn called out, but ignores him."
Sonia: Oh yeah I forgot, that's almost here isn't it?
Isabel: It is actually, we'll tell you about it after the investigation <Name>.
Sonia: I know what you're gonna say Isabel, and yes, it warrants another chat with Umbrielle.

Confront Unbrielle over the victim's protests
Sonia: Miss Vaughn, you told us you didn't know Duncan Huffman, but he certainly knew you.
Umbrielle: Oh you're bringing up that guy?
Umbrielle: Well who did he think he was? He killed animals for fun, and I'm busy trying to make history by climbing Mount Zarkon here!
Umbrielle: I don't care if this pine scent never washes out, this is something I've been working years for, and I won't let anything or anyone get in the way!
Isabel: Sounds like you were angry at the victim, did you kill him to make his protests stop?
Umbrielle: Of course not, I threw a slushy at his face instead. His look was priceless! Sonia: How nice, but that better be all. If you killed Duncan then you won't be climbing anywhere anymore.

In the middle of the woods...
Isabel: Well, it seems as though our victim wasn't the quiet hunter we thought.
Sonia: We know his father and Cesar seemed to respect him well enough.
Sonia: But we can't say the same for Umbrielle, who the victim hated for taking over his hunting grounds and what not.
Isabel: Danny didn't tell us about the fact his father was close friends with Duncan, but its hard to tell if that's vindictive of anything.
Sonia: I think we should ease off of the young boy, he isn't even that old and-
Isabel: Hey, you hear that?
Sonia: Its coming from the victim's cabin, someone's in there!

Chapter 3[]

Isabel: Hands up, who's there?
Cesar: Officers, hey. What are you doing here?
Sonia: We were busy discussing Duncan Huffman's murder, what are you doing here, at a crime scene?
Cesar: Well uh...
Cesar: ...Alright fine I'll talk!
Isabel: You better Mr. San Martin, and while we're at it we better have a look around again.

Confront Cesar over ransacking the victim's place
Isabel: Mr San Martin, why are you making a mess of the victim's place?
Cesar: I wasn't trying to make a mess, I was looking for the ammunition!
Sonia: Ammunition?
Cesar: Yes! Bullets aren't cheap, and I knew Duncan stole from me!
Isabel: He stole from you? What makes you sure it was him?
Cesar: Video footage, I caught him on tape. I confronted him when I was taking Danny Herman for a hike, but he denied it.
Cesar: So I figured with him dead I could be able to check his place without any trouble. But I guess I thought wrong.
Sonia: Wrong is right, and we better find out you didn't kill Duncan for his stealing, or else getting away with this will be the second thing you got wrong.

Investigate Fireplace
Isabel: Well well well, this place is even more of a mess than usual thanks to Cesar.
Sonia: At least <Name> managed to find some more clues. Our victim hadn't opened his mailbox in a while, so looking through it might prove useful.
Sonia: But why the empty trophy mount?
Isabel: Hang on, <Name>'s on to something. There appears to be some writing on this mount, but its faded.
Isabel: I'll get your dusting kit, anything if it means we'll get close to Duncan's killer!

Examine Mailbox
Isabel: What have we here? Looks like Duncan's father sent him a message.
Sonia: Let's open it and see, its that important after all.
Sonia: "Duncan, get off your lazy a** and start taking your work seriously! I've had it up to hear with you not taking this seriously!"
Isabel: Looks like Ellis wasn't that proud of our victim after all. We better go see what was so bad that he wrote this letter.

Talk to Ellis about the angry letter he sent
Isabel: Mr. Huffman, it appears you were mad at your son for being lazy. Care to explain?
Ellis: Dang! I didn't think you'd even notice it.
Ellis: Alright fine, my boy was working fine at first, he and I certainly went on our fair share of hiking trips.
Ellis: But he's been hunting less and less and doing more work towards 'protesting'! Ha, what a joke!
Sonia: Mr. Huffman, that's your son.
Ellis: My son perhaps, but a horrible one! He went and got killed, there's no way a son of mine would go down without a fight.
Ellis: Call me whatever, but if my son got killed like that, then I ain't botherin' with him anymore!

Examine Trophy Mount
Isabel: So what's the message? "You better stop what you're doing, otherwise its YOUR head on the line!"
Sonia: Wow, sounds like someone with a grudge.
Sonia: No indication of who wrote it, looks like its a job for Alice!

Analyze Message
Alice: Well I must admit, this was certainly challenging, but I managed.
Sonia: We know this had to be someone angry at the victim, but who?
Alice: The key here is the item used, this trophy mount was used intentionally.
Alice: It was essentially a form of symbolism, meaning the victim was trying to push his luck but was on thin ice, so to speak.
Alice: You're clearly looking for someone who was mad at the victim's hunting work and wanted him to stop by all means.
Isabel: Hmm, I think we may know someone who could've written this. Samuel Woods, that animal ranger.
Sonia: But why would he go out of his way to send this to the victim? We better ask Ranger Woods about it ourselves.

Ask Samuel why he sent the threat to the victim
Samuel: Sorry if I took a while, I wanted to get a slushie, just can't get enough of that frosty goodness!
Isabel: Its fine, now, did you write this threat to our victim?
Samuel: Oh, well...
Samuel: Alright I'll be straight with you, I already told you I didn't like Duncan that much because he was trying to hunt on park grounds.
Sonia: Was that it?
Samuel: It only gets worse! He was trying to scare people off by threatening them!
Isabel: What? Why didn't you report this?
Samuel: I didn't want to trouble anyone, since I'm in charge of the place I felt it was my responsibility to protect it!
Samuel: People like Danny Herman rely on me to keep this place safe, though I would appreciate it if that pine scent of his wasn't so strong.
Sonia: So you wrote that threat to him?
Samuel: I had to, it was the only way he'd understand! These animals have done nothing to deserve his kind of treatment!
Samuel: Sorry if I seem heartless, but I'm thankful for the person who sent him crashing down.

Back at the station...
Sonia: Well, its official, Duncan has made his fair share of enemies of all kinds.
Isabel: Ranger Woods didn't like his hunting more than we thought, he even sent a threat to him.
Isabel: That's not even mentioning how cold his father was at the victim doing less hunting.
Sonia: Then there's Cesar, who the victim stole from and he had proof of it.
Sonia: At this rate, we're never gonna find who killed Duncan. Any chance we can leave this to local law enforcement?
Isabel: Sonia, we have to keep going. The victim was pushed from atop that cliff, we need to check there again. Hopefully the killer left something behind.
Sonia: Alright, I hope I can relax after this, I'm going off 4 hours of sleep here.

Investigate Fallen Tree
Sonia: Anything?
Isabel: This rock looks bloody, what are the chances the killer used this to strike the victim?
Sonia: Good chance, we better get a sample of that substance on the rock.
Sonia: And while we're at it, we can see who this phone belongs to, cause last I checked this sort of thing isn't supposed to be out in the snow.
Isabel: Agreed, we're getting warmer on our search for the killer, here's hoping we'll have them in jail soon.

Examine Rock
Isabel: Alright, this clear substance has to be from our killer! Let's get this to the lab pronto.

Analyze Clear Substance
Isabel: Time is short Victor, what do you have?
Victor: Alright, whatever gets me back to my writing the better. The substance from that rock was sweat.
Victor: And the sweat didn't match the victim's genetic profile. Your killer must've left it here when they pushed Duncan off.
Sonia: What's the final word on it then?
Victor: I was able to find out the owner of this has brown eyes, and your victim had green...
Isabel: So that means our killer has brown eyes! Well they'll be crying from them when we catch them!

Examine Phone
Sonia: Well what do you know, turns out our victim had a cell phone after all.
Isabel: We better see if there's anything on here about our killer. Let's get this to the lab.

Analyze Victim's Phone
Isabel: So Marco, tell me you got something from the victim's phone?
Marco: Well, luckily the victim really didn't use this aside from calling and taking photos of his kills.
Marco: But the last photo was actually taken at the time of the murder.
Sonia: Did he take a pic of his killer's face?
Marco: Sadly no, I'm guessing it must've been when he was pushed off. The photo was blurry so he must've thrown the phone onto the ground to make sure it didn't fall with him.
Marco: But I was able to distinguish one feature, the killer was wearing a scarf around their neck.
Isabel: So our killer is wearing a scarf? Talk about the proverbial noose around our killer's neck, but we'll catch them and hang them out to dry!

Sonia: Finally, we've got what we need to arrest Duncan Huffman's killer!
Isabel: Get the cuffs ready <Name>, time to send this killer crashing back down to reality.

Take care of the killer now!
Isabel: Mr. San Martin, you killed Duncan? Why?
Cesar: What are you talking about, it wasn't me! A lot of people wanted him dead!
Sonia: But not everyone smells like pine, but you do!
Cesar: It isn't exactly hard to get that scent on you in this area.
Isabel: And what about the sweat you left on the rock by the crime scene, we know you have brown eyes!
Cesar: That still doesn't prove its me, any brown-eyed person could've left that!
Sonia: We know its you Cesar, you dropped your slushy cup alongside the victim, and we have a photo of you too!
Isabel: I cannot believe this, Marco certainly won't like to hear that you killed someone!
Cesar: But I had no choice, Duncan was getting out of control!
Cesar: .....
Cesar: Alright I killed him, but I had no choice! It was for everyone's sake.
Isabel: What do you mean everyone's sake?
Cesar: Duncan was starting to become violent, he wasn't just threatening people with his gun...
Cesar: But he actually shot someone, his old hunting partner Floyd!
Sonia: Wait, as in Floyd Herman? Danny's father?
Cesar: Yes! He lied to avoid getting imprisoned for murder, but he said he had it up to here with all this hiking business!
Cesar: He was gonna take them all down himself, he told me so himself. I confronted him while he was hunting, but I couldn't talk him out of it.
Isabel: So you pushed him off the cliff?
Cesar: Yes, I didn't want to, but he left me no choice. I know what I did was wrong, but the lives of many are more important than one.
Sonia: Its not your call to say who deserves to live and die Cesar, hopefully Judge Blackwell will make you understand that. You're under arrest!

Judge Blackwell: Cesar San Martin, you stand here for the murder of Duncan Huffman, how do you plead?
Cesar: Guilty, but I had no choice!
Cesar: If I didn't kill him, then several others would be dead in his place!
Judge Blackwell: Vigilante justice is no excuse Mr. San Martin, especially when you have the police to rely upon.
Cesar: But even then it would've been too late. I had to act, now!
Judge Blackwell: None of that matters! No life should be sacrificed for the greater good, no matter who they are and what they've done.
Judge Blackwell: No one should ever take the law into their own hands! We're humans for a reason!
Judge Blackwell: Therefore Cesar San Martin, you're sentenced to 20 years in prison with a chance for parole in 15!
Cesar: I understand, just make sure someone takes care of my gun store.

Marco: Cesar was the killer? Man, you think you know a guy.
Isabel: I understand he wanted to protect everyone, but he should've taken it up with the proper authorities.
Hunter: I'll never understand these folks taking the law into their own hands like that.
Sonia: Same here Captain, at the very least we got that case wrapped up.
Sonia: Now we can get back to what we were doing before this happened, investigate the black market!!

Expedition Impossible (1/8)[]

Annabel: Well, with Duncan Huffman's killer arrested, we can finally get to work on investigating the black market!
Isabel: This time, another look around the national park should help us, and hopefully we won't come across anymore dead bodies.
Sonia: And what about Danny Herman? Doesn't he deserve to know the truth about his father's death?
Annabel: I've sent Daisy and Josiah to inform him of what happened, they're able to handle this sort of thing easily, but still, its sad he has to find out this way.
Hunter: Uh guys, we've got a problem. Some woman named Umbrielle is here, and needs to see <Rank> <Name>.
Sonia: That must be Umbrielle Vaughn, the hiker we met during the investigation. Mind taking care of if with <Name> Isabel?
Isabel: Not at all, just make sure you find info on the market at the park.
Annabel: Well <Name>, looks like you got your hands full once again. Hopefully we can get these done soon. Good luck!

Investigate National Park
Sonia: Well, I gotta admit this is a bit exciting. I've been personally hoping to put an end to their drug racket for some time.
Sonia: Right, I'll focus. Well, that dirt mound seems like a suspicious spot to me, let's start digging in.

Examine Dirt Mound
Sonia: Nice find! It looks like whoever dug in here buried this briefcase.
Sonia: I'll be surprised if this isn't about the market, but it looks like this needs a combination. Time to work your magic once again <Name>.

Examine Briefcase
Sonia: Nice work <Name>! Looks like this was hiding some... is that a shipping order?
Sonia: Hopefully Marco has recovered enough from the shock of Cesar's arrest, because we don't have anyone else who could analyze this. If not, I'll see what I can do. For now, to the lab!

Analyze Shipping Order
Marco: Alright, we've already started making some headway into their drug op with this shipping order!
Sonia: What do you mean?
Marco: Turns out this was an anonymous order for some crates containing illegal drugs! I sent some officers over to the port and they managed to intercept the order.
Sonia: Wow, talk about lucky.
Marco: Sadly, I wasn't able to find out who ordered it. The signature on the order was illegible, even Alice couldn't figure it out.
Sonia: Darn, where are we gonna find a lead now?
Sonia: Oh right, Samuel might've seen something! We better talk to him about this.

Ask Samuel if he noticed anyone suspicious
Sonia: Mr. Woods, any chance you noticed suspicious activity here?
Samuel: What kind of suspicious activity?
Sonia: We found this briefcase buried in the park, with info on a shipment of drugs for the black market.
Samuel: What!? The market?
Samuel: Hmm, the only thing that comes to mind is what happened a few days ago.
Samuel: I saw some suspicious figure in park a few days ago, and they've been at that same spot everyday since then. They weren't there today, though that may have been because of your investigation.
Sonia: I see, well thanks for your help Mr. Woods.
Samuel: No problem, thanks for solving the murder so quickly! Here, I think a little reward is in order, its not much, but I hope you like it!

See what Umbrielle needs help with
Umbrielle: Thank goodness you showed up <Rank> <Name>! You gotta help me!
Isabel: Yes Miss Vaughn?
Umbrielle: As I told you before, the annual competition to climb Mount Zarkon is coming up soon. And I've been hoping to scale the peak for some time.
Umbrielle: But as I was hiking, I lost the sign-up sheet. I left it in my wallet, but I couldn't find it anywhere!
Isabel: I see, don't worry Miss Vaughn, we'll find the wallet for you.
Umbrielle: You will? Oh thank you so much officers! I really appreciate it.
Umbrielle: I was hiking by the cliff overlooking the national park if you want to start searching.
Isabel: Sounds good, let's go <Name>!

Investigate Fallen Tree
Isabel: Okay, any signs of Umbrielle's wallet?
Isabel: Nice catch! But we still need to be certain its her's. Let's see if there's some ID in here.

Examine Wallet
Isabel: Alright, the ID confirms this is Umbrielle's. Let's give this back to her!

Return the wallet to Umbrielle
Isabel: Here's your wallet Miss Vaughn, and we made sure it was your's!
Umbrielle: Thank you! Now let me just make sure its still in here...
Umbrielle: Huh? Its not here! It must've fallen out when I dropped the wallet.
Isabel: Did you fold it up?
Umbrielle: I did! Any chance you can help me look for it, I'll gladly come by and give a hand in looking!
Isabel: Alright, no problem. But let's get a bite first, this hiking is kinda tiring me out. This may be my hometown, but I was never really into the hiking.

Investigate Cliff
Umbrielle: Is it here? I can't afford to miss this year's climbing competition!
Isabel: Well this looks to be it, but I can't say if its your's. The name is faded.
Isabel: <Name>, you're gonna have to decipher the name before we can be sure this is Umbrielle's.

Examine Sign-Up Sheet
Isabel: That confirms it, the name <Name> recovered is your's!
Umbrielle: Thank you so much! We better give this to the sponsor before sign-ups close!
Isabel: Who's sponsoring the event?
Umbrielle: Raiden Osborne, he's one of the heirs to the allustrious Osborne family!
Isabel: Osborne!? As is the same Osborne family who founded the city?
Umbrielle: It sure is, come on, we can see him together!

Give the paper to Raiden Osborne
Umbrielle: Mr. Osborne, is it too late to sign up for the competition? I have my sheet here!
Raiden: Ah Umbrielle, I was worried you decided to retire this year.
Umbrielle: Not when the peak still hasn't been reached!
Isabel: It still hasn't?
Raiden: Sadly not, you know what is still frightening everyone.
Raiden: Anyways, you must be the officers I've heard so much about. Pleasure to meet you, I'm Raiden Osborne, heir to the Osborne family fortune.
Isabel: Detective Isabel Bryant, and this is <Rank> <Name>. Its an honor to meet you Mr. Osborne.
Raiden: The pleasure is all mine Detective, you and the force have already done so much for this city I can't thank you enough.
Raiden: Here, a little token of appreciation, courtesy of the Osborne family.
Umbrielle: And thanks again <Name>! I better get back to training, this year I'll make it to the top, and nothing will stop me!

Back at the station...
Isabel: Well, glad we were able to help Umbrielle out with her problem.
Alice: I heard you got to meet a member of the Osborne family. I didn't think they'd be sponsoring this event.
Isabel: Well hey, Raiden and the other heirs aren't really as old-fashioned as their parents or other siblings from around the country from what I've heard.
Sonia: Yeah, they're spread out to Starlight Shores and Rusthollow. Who knows where else they are.
Sonia: But one thing's for sure, we're definetly making headway into the black market's drug op thanks to the interception of that drug shipment.
Alice: I don't know what else to expect while we're here, but I suggest we all stay on our guard.
Isabel: Right, something tells me things aren't gonna get easier. But we're up for anything the market can give us!
