Marie: *Looking intently at her camera screen, murmuring softly to herself in French.* "...ces images ne mentent pas, il y a quelque chose de très étrange ici..." Hunter: *Approaching confidently, badge subtly displayed.* "Excuse me, ma'am, I'm Detective Hunter. I couldn't help but notice you seem quite troubled. Anything you might have seen around town today?" Marie: *Startled, quickly switches her camera off and looks up, responding in hurried French.* "Oh, pardon, je vous comprends pas... Vous parlez français? Il y a quelque chose de mal, je le sens. Les gens ici... ils disparaissent, non?" Hunter: *Scratching his head, trying to pick up on any familiar words.* "Uh, I'm sorry, I don't speak French. Can you... uh... parlez-vous anglais?" Marie: *Sighing and speaking slowly, trying to bridge the language gap.* "Je... no English. Photos... ici," *she points to her camera,* "il y a des choses, pas normales. Vous... inspecteur, oui? Aidez-nous." Hunter: *Noticing her pointing to the camera.* "Photos? Are you saying you have photos of something strange? Can I see?" Marie: *Nods, flipping her camera back on and showing him a series of pictures of unusually empty streets and a few blurry images that might suggest hurried movements.* "Regardez... vide, partout vide. Ce n’est pas normal." Hunter: *Leaning in, trying to make sense of the images.* "Hm. This is indeed odd. I need to get someone to translate... maybe get some answers from these." Marie: *Looking relieved someone is taking her seriously, but still anxious.* "S’il vous plaît, faites vite. C’est dangereux." Hunter: *His phone rings, and he pulls it from his belt.* "This is Hunter. Yes... I'll be right there." *He turns back to Marie.* "I have to take this, but I'll be back, okay? Stay here." Marie: *Nods, clutching her camera a bit tighter.* "D'accord, je vais attendre. Faites attention." Hunter: *Gives a reassuring nod despite the language barrier.* "I will. And thank you."
