Milk Tea Part 3

Investigation began.
Hiroshi signalled a sign, surprisingly, Chris came out.

Investigation began.

Hiroshi signalled a sign, surprisingly, Chris came out.

'You will assist Pandora in this investigation.'

We strided in the sandy streets - with continuous beats of clicking stilettos and vehicles, the concerto of urban districts seemed a pathetic fallacy of the difficulty to find Leanne.

Who said I was a detective?

The next hours were repetitive sessions of my rhetoric - Any contacts? Ex boyfriends and girlfriends? Likes and dislikes? Appearances? Past? Such questions flood into a pool of an unknown dimension, waiting to be found.

The Lancer Evo7 roamed into the streets of confusion and urbanization, as it dived into a petite apartment in Wanchai. Paradoxically, Leanne's apartment was surprisingly small - but it was another fable as we ventured inside.

Leanne's room was the dream of all men's fantasies - pink curtains in a cranky Victorian bed, drooping with laces that make seduction a paradise. Lace underwear scattered over the drawers as if there has been a robbery; and cosmetics stacked up in the make-up theatre. It was almost a remake of Aphrodite's territory - romantic curtains with trumpets playing Fidelio.

A photo album...

I flicked the pages - reels of sexy photographs pop out. Leanne in black Lacey underwear. Leanne naked. Hiroshi planting a hickey on her neck. Hiroshi and her merging in the Victorian bed.

No wonder he adore her - she was his Venus, and he probably Zeus who was lured into her realm of ecstasies. Her shimmering black hair the waves of lust, and 5'6 body the reminiscence of a love goddess.

Chris flipped to the last page - it displayed a printed address:

                     Golden Hawk Cafe
                     112 Mattheson Road
                     Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

                     Tel: 2346 8999, take outs available
                     Specialize in milk tea and dry noodles

Chris whispered, 'Leanne was addicted to milk tea, she was a caffeineholic. Here, I sneaked her contacts.'

'How come Hiroshi got you to investigate with me?'

'I used to be her bodyguard. Until I was put in charge of arcades.'

'Wonder how you would be her bodyguard.'

'She wouldn't like guys like me, and I have the muscles. Just get yourself back on the case Pandora, you know Hiroshi can kill you if you don't find her. He loves her THAT much..'

Here's the excerpt of contacts:

'Chris, do you mind working an extra night?' I asked.

'So long I don't get bloodshot eyes. Sure, Pan.'

'I think we may well have a field trip in Golden Hawk Cafe, and call all her nightclub fans, and the ex boyfriend.'

'Pandora, whoever who hired you is definitely too smart.'

Sure, I want to know that too. Now I know why Anton is dragging me into the case - the consequences of failure are too much for Causeway Kids to take.







Thanks to everyone for waiting this, especially zeltira! Sorry, the internet connection takes a long while to set up.

Btw, there are some mature scenes so just be aware of it.
* Fidelio - a sensual piece by Beethoven, as referenced in Tom Stoppard's Jumpers to signify a romantic scenario and lust.
*Red & Black Venus refers to night club names.
* *#$& - This indicates that Eric is Leanne's ex boyfriend.
