[Sadrain]

December 4th, Chicago. Base.

"This coffee? That's all we have and I am not sure it would help," Elek chuckled and changed direction, moving to kitchen, to get something to eat and drink for Amante. He listened to his request in the mean time and frowned a little. Indeed, his friend seemed quite on edge whenever the man came up in the conversation. But he shrugged it off, since he wasn't about to ask about it anyways.

"The problem is - we didn't. Apparently, someone employed Ryan to kidnap Alice, and he became sympathetic for her, so, in last moment, he ran away from people that were about to pick her up." He paused the conversation to thank the cook for few sandwiches and another cup and then handed them to Amante.

"Let's go to my room," he suggested and took the course. When they finally could close the door behind them, Elek sat down and sighed softly.
"Ryan has no idea who was his employer, if they know where they are right now, how desperately they want Alice or just who is Alice." The man looked at Amante quizzically, still thinking he most likely knew more about Alice than her savior.

"That's what I would like you to investigate, if possible. Maybe you need to talk with Alice, I don't know." Elek shruggeda little helplessly and took another sip of the brew. "Oh, almost forgot. Twins crafted up some spying device that will help you listen to what Leila is talking. It works only in short range, though. Few kilometers or so." The man gave Amante a small box, which contained something like a hearing aid, and small button, which he apparently had to attach to the subject's clothes.

"Anything in particular you want to know about Ryan or something?" He asked, with a small,nearly guilty smile.
