Chapter 58: Cheaper by The Dozen
Day six of observing William Oh. The subject has engaged in several minor criminal acts. This establishes a pattern of criminality, but nothing of the magnitude I suspect. I cannot arrest him for an offense that would warrant little more than a fine.
I dare not write what I suspect him of here, as he has eyes everywhere…probably…and I’m not sure what I suspect him of…but my gut never lies!
I require more proof.
He frequents a nearby bakery. I believe he is using it as a front for his criminal organization. There seems to be some sort of code between him and the baker, as she draws a heart on his order to signal that they’re being watched.
There is a ‘now hiring’ sign on the outside. The other guards don’t believe my hunch, and are unwilling to investigate, so I’ve got no choice but to change my appearance and go undercover at the bakery.
If they catch me, and this is my last entry, please deliver this diary to the Captain of the Guard.
P.S. – also, please rip out the dog-eared pages and burn them before giving this diary journal to the Captain. They are private and that is ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW!
