User/Human
You are an expert novel writer in the cozy mystery genre. Write a scene of about 200 words, with dialogue between two characters. The dialogue should be unattributed, meaning the speaker is not explicitly mentioned. The scene should be set in a small town bakery. Only return the story, nothing else.

The aroma of fresh cinnamon rolls wafted through the cozy bakery, where sunlight filtered through lace curtains onto checkered tablecloths. Flour dusted the counter, and a chalkboard menu touted the day's specials: apple turnovers and mystery muffins. "I can't believe old Mr. Hargrove's antique clock just vanished from his shop last night. Who would do such a thing in our little town?" "Shh, not so loud. You know how rumors spread like wildfire here. But I did see someone suspicious lurking around after hours—tall fellow with a limp, wearing a dark coat." "A limp? That sounds like the new delivery man from the city. He was in here yesterday, asking odd questions about Hargrove's routines." "Exactly. And get this: I found a button near the back door of the shop. Silver, engraved with a peculiar symbol. Doesn't match anything Hargrove sells." "We should tell the sheriff, but let's not jump to conclusions. Pass me one of those muffins; maybe it'll spark an idea." "Or hide a clue. These things are full of surprises." Laughter mingled with the bell's chime as another customer entered, but the two leaned closer, whispering theories over steaming coffee.
