No Time for Pillow Talk is a case featured in Criminal Case as the seventh case of Stonemoor and the sixty-seventh overall. It is featured as the first case set in Rose Petal Avenue.
Plot[]
Following the team's reassignment to Rose Petal Avenue, April and the player went on patrol along Pierre Street. While wandering the streets, they were informed that a body had been found in a brothel along the street and that they were needed right away. Upon investigating the scene, they found the body of prostitute Alana Rockwell, smothered with a pillow. A sombre Alexandre, who knew the victim while she was alive, confirmed the pillow was the murder weapon. As the duo collected clues, they suspected the victim's client Michael Stern, prostitute Rosalie Walker and cabaret owner Francisco Delacroix. They then learned that a memorial for Alana was being held at a local hair salon.
At the memorial, they spoke to hairdresser Loulou Robertson who confessed that Alana was her step-sister and that she was devastated that she was gone. After searching the area, they also suspected cabaret dancer Michelle Carnegie. Valerie then revealed that Alana planned to flee the brothel. Upon investigating the new lead and uncovering more evidence, they arrested the victim's step sister Loulou Robertson for the murder.
April confronted Loulou about the murder, but she denied all the evidence against her until April asked Loulou about Alana planning to flee the brothel. This statement made Loulou snap, saying that she was furious that Alana would think of leaving her behind. Loulou then explained that her father had left all the money in his will to his step-daughter, Alana, rather than to his biological daughter. With the money, Alana planned to flee the brothel and escape Rose Petal Avenue. Loulou then went to Alana's workplace and pleaded that Alana help her escape the city too, but Alana refused. Furious that Alana had taken her father's money and was not willing to help her escape, Loulou smothered Alana with a pillow, stole her money and train ticket and planned to flee on the train out of the city the following day. Judge South found it suitable for Loulou to be given 25 years in prison.
After the trial, Francisco called the detectives as he needed assistance, which led the player and April to find out that a client had been murdered. The detectives then investigated the brothel room only to find the body of Royce Chapeler, a stab wound in the side of his neck and a rose tucked in his pocket. Alexandre revealed that Royce had been stabbed in the neck and the killer left the rose with a tag in the victim's pocket. The tag's logo then revealed that the logo was in fact Pierre Corner's logo. Alexandre then remembered the victim from his days in the district and told them that Royce liked visiting the cabaret, leading the detectives to find a business card for a perfume shop in Royce's wallet. They then told Alexandre, who promised to check the hospitals and medical offices in the district for similar deaths.
Meanwhile, Spencer and the player assisted Rosalie in retrieving her corset from the hair salon after she ditched it there when she had fled from a touchy drunkard. Soon after, Alexandre reported to Chief Flanagan and the player that there had been five other murders that had involved a client dead from a stab to the side of their necks. With the discovery of Royce's last whereabouts before his death, Chief Flanagan told Spencer and the player to check out the local perfume shop called Chambers's Scents.
