Selvi: [muttering to herself in Hindi, scrolling through photos on her camera, quiet] "इस फोटो को थोड़ा सा और स्पष्ट किया जा सकता है... बस थोड़ा सा..." Hunter: [approaching her table, flipping out his detective badge to set gently on the table, no-nonsense tone] "Ma'am, sorry to interrupt. I'm Detective Hunter with the Alborn Police Department, investigating the disappearance of 17-year-old Lila Martinez, who went missing from the town's apple festival orchard day before yesterday. The front desk at the visitor’s center said you were the photographer who reported seeing something suspicious out there that day. Can I ask you a few questions about what you witnessed?" Selvi: [looks up, eyes wide and immediately shaken, hands twisting tight around her camera strap, responds rapidly in panicked Hindi] "आप ही पुलिस वाले हैं? मैंने कोशिश की किसी को बताने की लेकिन कोई मेरी बात समझ ही नहीं पा रहा! मैंने एक लंबा आदमी देखा था जो लिला को बगीचे के पीछे जंगल की तरफ घसीटकर ले जा रहा था, मेरी कैमरे में उसकी फोटो है लेकिन वह बहुत धुंधली है, मैं क्या करूं?" Hunter: [blinks, completely confused, leaning forward like he misheard] "Wait, hold on, that’s Hindi, right? I don’t speak a word of it. The visitor’s center clerk mentioned an Indian student in town for a program, I thought they said you had a translator app or something? I can’t understand a word you’re saying, slow down." Selvi: [voice cracking, more upset, gestures wildly at her camera screen] "देखो! यहां देखो मेरी कैमरे में! वह सिल्हूट, वह वही आदमी है! मुझे डर है कि उसने मुझे फोटो खींचते हुए देख लिया था, वह मेरे पीछे भी आ सकता है!" Hunter: [fumbling for his phone, swiping to open a translator app, cursing quietly when the screen pops up with "No Service"] "Damn, cell service out here by the old creek is always garbage. Wait, can you pass me the camera? I can look at what you’re pointing at, even if I can’t understand the words. Let me see, maybe I can spot something." Selvi: [shoves the camera across the table toward him, still rambling quietly in terrified Hindi] "मैं यहां अकेली हूं, कोई मेरी मदद नहीं कर रहा है, मैं कभी घर नहीं लौट पाऊंगी अगर उसने मुझे भी ढूंढ लिया..." Hunter: [leans in to squint at the blurry photo, about to gesture for her to point out the figure, when his work phone blares from his pocket. He yanks it out, answers sharply, all business] "Hunter. What? You found Lila’s backpack half-buried at the north edge of the orchard? I’m enroute right now." [shoves the phone back in his pocket, grabs his badge, apologetic but harried as he stands to leave] "I’m so sorry, I have to run—there’s a break in the case. Wait, stay right here, I’ll bring the high school’s Hindi teacher back with me in 15 minutes, she’s in town for the festival. I’ll come back, I promise, don’t go anywhere."
