I didn't even stay in those apartments for more than a few weeks and I still got dragged to the side by a bunch of investigators. They wanted to go through the few things I had because someone was convinced that they saw a few people moving boxes out of the Tower apartments and that little girl must have been in one of them.

[She rolls her eyes and folds her arms across her chest.]

And since I was one of the people moving out, I was under suspicion. I missed my dancing class today because of it.

[But as much as she's pissed off at the investigators and all of the people accusing newcomers, she doesn't look ready to push the notion completely under the rug that someone's taken her.]

Does this blame game happen often around here? First it was that virus and now this little girl going missing. Are we always blamed for everything?

[She shifts almost uncomfortably.]

And are we looking for her or are we just sit quietly while people go through our things and give us the evil eye over something we haven't done?

They would do this because it puts more suspicion on us, rather then the one who did this terrible deed. This poor girl won't ever be found if they're looking in the wrong place, and whoever did this must be banking on that.

And everyone wants to believe it's us. We are the whipping boy of the city, and everyone has made a whip of their own.

It's not right. Don't they need - oh, what's it called... - reasonable suspicion? Or something like that?

They do have reasonably suspicion. They dislike us, and are suspicious of us, and that... seems about it. It does not help that many Newcomers who've arrived here have contributed to make them suspicious of us.

But I mean... Legal suspicion. By law, they need a warrant to search our things, right?

The law and what they decide to do with it are very much two different things.
