From our correspondent in Sleuthtown.

In Sleuthtown, known for it's increadibly low average life expectancy, a growing number of detective agencies are complaining about the real-estate market.
The local real-estate agent, rumored to be just a white washing operation of La Cosa Nostra, was not available for comment. But a spokesperson of one of the many detective agencies littered around town said: "We are expected to put up with their monopoly, but we are all screaming for more choice." He went on to explain that there are only a certain amount of offices available for rent. "And there are so many very usable places vacant! Take the huge amount of abandoned Libraries, for example. Sure there's no room for a crime lab, and item-storage would have to be limited to around 16 items. But think of the cases you could store! At least 7 per member, and the reading booths could easily accomodate 12 members."
When we went to the real-estate agency to confront Isabella Santanelli with these facts, we were told to "Get out, before we make an example of you!"

"This piece in the paper is our only hope," A despairing agency-member confides "If only somebody who could do something about this would read it..."
Although this particular member would not confirm it, we are almost certain he ment the man who runs town in all but name: the elusive Ben. Little is known about this character, except that he calls himself administrator, and that he is widely respected thoughout the town.
