She’d hoped for a lead. A piece of evidence, or an overheard tidbit of information from the cops.
No such luck.
Shame. So what’s your next plan?
There was an overabundance of evidence. By the time the cops processed everything here and managed to identify the bodies, the leaves would be falling off the trees and the Nine would be long gone, one way or another. The cops weren’t talking, either. They were working silently, or the things they were saying weren’t interesting.
I would imagine this scene doesn’t put them in a talkative mood.
Catching the Nine wasn’t their job. If they found something worthwhile, they would pass it on to the local capes, probably.
Makes sense. The cops aren’t really as equipped to take on enemies like these, even if the PRT supplies them with tinkertech.
