*Guido looked at him with a glimpse of surprise on his face, then he bursted out laughing.*
"You can't be serious! I only tell you what I have read in those books. I never said I believed in that crap. But look at the girl. You must admit she doesn't look like the girls you usually meet on the street. And look at her dress. It looks expensive. There could be money in this case."

*Gene shrugged.*
"Well, it would make sense if it was the rich. They have all sorts of sick games. Right, we question the girl."
*He opened the door and called to her.*
"I have a few questions."

*Leetah turned around and looked at him. The waiting had done her a bit nervous, but she was polite in the way she spoke to him, and her movements were calm. As Brunetti had mentioned, her dress was exquisite, of the finest materials, and she had expensive jewelry around her neck and on her dress.*
"Please, go ahead and ask. But make haste. I need to go back to the court this afternoon."

"You will stay as long as I choose to keep you for. You are part of a murder investigation now."
*Gene sat himself down in a chair.*
"So, explain this King and Queen thing then?"

*Leetah sighed. She noticed a certain sceptiscism from this human, but decided she had to try.*
"I can only tell you what I heard later, because I was not there when it happened. But as the best friend of the murdered Queen, I know a lot about the life of the court. I know that the King and Queen had a very unhappy marriage. They didn't have any children. The King was a tyrant and bothered everyone, including the Queen. Nobody was surprised when he was found dead in his study, murdered with a knife. What was really shocking is that the Queen was found right beside him, also murdered with a knife."
*She was fighting to hold back her tears, the memories were still painful.*

*Gene frowned. Bizarre group leader and manipulated wife, it was not an unusal stereotype.*
"I would like to see where."

*Leetah was standing by the doorway.*
"The murders took place in the Elven Kingdom of Lorien, inside the castle. I'll be happy to show you the way, if you want to see the murder scene."

*Gene shot a glance at Guido which clearly meant 'the girl is insane'.*
"Right, let's go to 'Lorien' then."

*Gene shot a look at Guido.*
"I'll take my car. Fire up the Quarto."

*Guido looked back at Gene and smiled.*
"I'll drive with the girl. To make sure she doesn't escape, or play any tricks at us. See you at the crime scene."
*He winked and entered the carriage. The servant closed the door behind him, and the carriage took off.*

*Gene raised an eyebrow.*
"On your head be it then."
*He climbed in his car and took off after them.*
