[Hans drops down by her out of who-knows-where, like a tree or an awning or something??? He does this entrance a lot but at least it doesn’t come with crumbs today.
Instead he’s got the day’s paper held in his mouth because he needs his other limbs, natch. It drops into his hands as he speaks.]
[There’s a mischievous edge to his grin because he’s probably aiming to startle or sneak up on people a little at least most of the time, and he really doesn’t make much noise.]
That don’t say nothin’, and there’s nothin’ I can see that woulda led to this outcome except meowbe the kid with the knife a couple times.
But then, ya said this woulda been expected just fine.
[Turns a half-circle around her like a museum exhibit and then hops up onto the nearest perch, which is probably a statue or a fence. Fence-sitting catte.
His inquiries aren't particularly pressing; he seems a lot more like he's just doing this to pass the time. Still...]
Hrmeow, if they're makin' us do cleanup, it's goin' to be a whole thing again.
I presume nothing. It's just not surprising that things got this bad, is all.
They said they're leaving the investigation to us, didn't they... [she looks a little annoyed.] And we have a decent amount of information to start with.
Nyahaha, how pessimeowstic do ya have to be? I woulda been on your side if we weren't all fed an' clothed an' had more cash than anybody'd know what to do with, but I guess there's forces out there that don't care about that stuff.
[He really doesn't sound like he's all that surprised either, but the affectation is there, as is the... (probably) sincere dedication to capitalism(???).]
... Meow, I guess we've got some things to go off of, but I wonder what's goin' to happen if we finish up this investigation.
If we're supposed to be "heroes," then I suppose people expect us to deal out some "justice." Not that I really care about that... not unless the culprit turns out to be a real piece of work, anyway.
I would like to get to the bottom of what happened, though.
Can't say I'm all that interested in bein' a judge, either, ya know? The hero part's already enough extra work for a guy like me.
[At least he's self-aware or... something...?? Headscritch.]
All that info we've got on the raccoon says he's a meowster o' just about anything, but wouldn't it be an irony if all he did was get on the wrong side of them bird-toys enough?
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence.
