"The guard, huh? I did not think of that. He could have considering the fact that he is the only one other than Zoe who has the keys to the shop. After inquiring this Peter character, we should have a chat with him." Based on Elyx's understanding and her's, Myra now suspected two people, this man named Peter and the guard that was supposed to keeping Zoe's shop safe. He sure as hell did not do a good job at it.
Myra thought about it when suddenly the smell of smoke came to her nose, causing her to let out a cough and wave her hand over her nose to avoid inhaling. "Mr. Peter, we're here to ask you some questions about the robbery that took place at Miss. Zoe's shop. I'm sure you've heard about it." He put his cigarette down, "Yeah, I've heard." He snickered "Wouldn't say she didn't deserve it." Myra eyed him suspiciously. It took him a moment to realize what was happening, "Ya'll think I stole it, don't cha?" Myra just kept her gaze locked with his, "We have reason to believe so. When Zoe started her shop, she left you broke."
"You even swore to get revenge on her. You have a reason to steal from her." Peter seemed aggravated from her accusations. "Listen, I don't know who you are but I did not steal from her. Sure, I hate her and she left me broke but that doesn't mean I'll steal from her. I have more dignity than that." Myra observed the man before looking around his shop, "Mind if we take a look around?" He gestured towards his shop and the female mage began looking around. He had some interesting stuff here but none of them seemed to match the missing possessions of Zoe. She nodded, "Well, you seem to have nothing on you. We'll be back if needed." He simply nodded as the two mages exited the shop. "He seems a little suspicious but I don't think that he's lying. But if not him, then the only suspect left is the guard." She looked at Elyx, "Let's go get that guard."
