Selvi sat at a sunlit window table in Alborn's cozy little café, the scent of warm apple cider and fresh pies drifting around her. She scrolled slowly through the landscape photos on her camera, her usual peaceful expression replaced by one of quiet worry. Hunter approached with his usual purposeful stride, pulling out the chair across from her. Hunter: "Afternoon. I'm Detective Hunter. I'm looking into the disappearances around last weekend's apple festival. You look like you've been taking a lot of pictures in town. Did you see anything unusual?" Selvi glanced up at him, her face troubled and shaken. She answered in Hindi, her voice unsteady. Selvi: "हाँ, मैं उत्सव में थी। मैं लैंडस्केप फोटो ले रही थी जब एक व्यक्ति अचानक गायब हो गया, जैसे जंगल ने उसे निगल लिया। मुझे बहुत डर लग रहा है, क्या यहाँ कोई खतरा है?" Hunter looked confused, his brow furrowing deeply as he tried to parse her words. Hunter: "I... don't understand a word of that. Do you speak any English at all?" Selvi: "मैं अंग्रेजी नहीं जानती। लेकिन मैंने कुछ बहुत अजीब देखा था। वह व्यक्ति अचानक से गायब... मैं कैमरे में तस्वीरें दिखा सकती हूँ अगर आप समझें।" Hunter: "No Hindi. None. This is a problem. Your camera—maybe the photos tell the story? Photos?" Selvi: "मेरे कैमरे में वो पल कैद है, लेकिन मैं डरी हुई हूँ। क्या आप मेरी मदद कर सकते हैं? मैं यहाँ नई हूँ और कुछ समझ नहीं आ रहा।" Hunter: "Alright, let's try this slowly. Point if you saw something in the trees. Trees?" Selvi: "हाँ, पेड़ों के पास। वहाँ कुछ गलत था, जैसे कोई छाया। मैं बहुत परेशान हूँ।" Hunter: "I wish I could understand you. You clearly saw something important. If only we had a translator in this town..." Selvi: "मुझे लगता है कि मैंने गवाह होने की गलती कर दी। अब क्या होगा?" Hunter's phone rang sharply. He checked the screen, his expression turning even more serious. Hunter: "I have to take this—it's the station. We'll figure out a way to continue this later. Stay safe." He gave her a quick, respectful nod and strode out of the café, leaving Selvi still clutching her camera with trembling hands.
