You silently open the door and slide in, closing the door behind you. You look around, seeing what you would expect from an old camera shop back store: boxes with different model numbers on them (most probably replacement parts), bottles of chemicals, boxes of paper, small to medium sized machinery, etc. You hear some noise coming from a door at the other end of room, and to your right, you see a closed door with a dark lightbulb above it.

Fischer crept up to the door at the far end of the room to investigate the noise.

Moving around the room, you make your way to the other end as silently as possible. There are a lot of boxes and other trinkets lying on the floor, but you somehow manage not to bump anything. Getting closer to the door, you hear what is distinctly the sound of daytime Trideo playing, and what seems like a person shuffling around. A quick peek inside the other room reveals an old woman going about her business, getting herself a drink while keeping an eye on what's playing on the Trideo. To the other end if the room, you see a sliding door and to your right you see stairs leading up.

Fischer, quietly, moved on to investigate the other door.

Opening the door delicately, you see it's a pitch-dark room with equipment placed on various tables. There is one big machine on the back of the room, with tubs lying around it.

<@Mia: Sweep finished. Only other person on the ground level is an old woman in the living area. The storage area and darkroom are both clear.>

[Muscular_Bevar]

<Shy of draggin this guy back to the room, i think we might have hit a dead end?>

[Necrogigas]

<@Mia: I think one act of kidnapping is enough for one day.>

Fischer quietly rummaged through the shop's back area checking to see if there was anything out of the ordinary.

You start looking around the backstore as quietly and quickly as you can, looking at what's on the shelves, the labels on the bottles, behind and inside the boxes, etc. After a good 10 minutes, you have roughly swept the room and nothing strikes you as odd or out-of-place.

"Thank you very much Sir" Mia politley dips her head and leaves the store

<Alright guys, not much to go on here, Thoughts?>

[Crossbow]

<Kitty Kat, what do you mean exactly?  What happened?>  Smiley message back as he fed Makato some food and tried to make her comfortable.

[Muscular_Bevar]

<I think the owner is aware of makatos mother but prolly doesnt know she is passed. He is not giving up any info tho and i've shown my hand already, mentioning her camera. You can really make a rep for yourself as a stand over man if you wanna but i dont see where this is supposed to lead?>

[Lumen]

<Did you ask if he could reproduce photos he has developed previously?   If our victim had her filmed developed there it could bust open the case, if we knew what she was taking pictures of.   Though to be honest at this point it is still conjecture.>

Kuren tends to the girls bruises with his medkit.

As long as Smiley doesn't try to physically stop him.  If he does Kuren will back down but have something to say about it.

@Smiley & Kuren

Makoto, still visibly scared and shaken, accepts the food and the medical attention. The sudden care only works to confuse her further, as she does not know what to make of the situation.

[Necrogigas]

Fischer checked the dark room in detail.
