Chapter 111: Thank you, Watson

🅹🆄🅳🆈

Finding the basement hadn't been too hard, we just had to walk down the stairs until we reached the last level.

The bigger challenge was to find the wine cellar.

Assuming the Mayor lives in this building, she still wouldn't leave her private drinking habits for all her employees to analyze. 

"What if it's in another building?"

"Isabella would have let us know. It has to be here somewhere."

The room we are standing in is completely empty but there are two other doors leading into unknown territory.

"So...which one are we taking?"

"We?" Clemens seems surprised. "Did you not read her note properly?"

"I did. I think?"

Clemens sighs and takes the second paper out of his pocket.

"It says 'I wish you were alone'. I strongly assume that means you'll have to go alone."

"What? No! It means she wishes I was single!"

I look into the dim dark and instinctively take a step back.
