⠀
As much as he would love to have a cup of coffee and get to know Scrooge better , the timing of it all requires for him to get to the bottom of everything that needs to be known .

“ If it's alright with you , I'd like to get started and go over the case of Tugboat Ted. ”
⠀

⠀
Besides that , if patterns were something to consider , the killer would've already struck well before it started to rain ... but the likelihood of this being a similar case is something left to be discussed.

Something he was hoping to go over tonight , especially with how the weather is .
⠀

⠀
“ Not at all. ” Yu would reassure the duck after shaking hands, taking his seat at the opposite end of the booth where he'd face Scrooge ; an angle where he can see the door just in case.

“ Made sure to keep tabs of my surrounding and the town, so I never saw anything out of the ordinary. ”
⠀

⠀
“ Good evening. ” Yu greets the duck , surprisingly fluent in speaking English with only a faint accent present in his voice .

“ You must be 𝗠𝗿. 𝗠𝗰𝗗𝘂𝗰𝗸. ”

He offers a hand out to the old geezer for a handshake.

“ 𝗬𝘂 𝗡𝗮𝗿𝘂𝗸𝗮𝗺𝗶. It's a pleasure to meet you. ”
⠀

⠀
Scrooge would hear audible footsteps approach to him , and if he were to look over to the side , he'd find that it'd the person that he contacted: a silver-haired man with a soft smile on his face, with a presence that seemed friendly and approachable .
⠀

⠀
He took one good scan of the place , taking a mental note of the amount of people , who was working , and anything that seemed off. He particularly looked for a television as well , but the search only interrupted when he noticed the top hat peeking out from the booth .

That must be him .
⠀

⠀
This wasn't a complaint , though. Yu much preferred something more modest like this than going out on an extravagant dinner or a mansion. It felt right at home for him.

The young man enters the building ...
⠀

⠀
The silver - haired man had arrived to the meeting location where he was supposed to meet his client "Scrooge McDuck".

He was surprised in the location of their meeting , especially of what he heard about Mr. McDuck and his wealth. One would suspect to hold this meeting in something... bigger.

' 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 , 𝘴𝘪𝘳 . ' The cab driver spoke up as he parked near the diner in downtown.

' 𝖳𝗁𝖺𝗇𝗄𝗌 𝖿𝗈𝗋 𝗍𝖺𝗄𝗂𝗇' 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝗍𝗂𝗆𝖾 '𝗍𝖺 𝗍𝖺𝗅𝗄 𝗍𝗈 𝗆𝖾 ! 𝖱𝖾𝖺𝗅𝗅𝗒 𝗁𝖾𝗅𝗉𝗌 𝗀𝖾𝗍 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝗇𝗂𝗀𝗁𝗍 𝗆𝗈𝗏𝗂𝗇' 𝖿𝖺𝗌𝗍𝖾𝗋 𝖿𝗈𝗋 𝗆𝖾 ! '

“ It's my pleasure. You drive safe ! ” — Yu responds with a friendly smile and exits out of the cab .
⠀

⠀
It was something to look into , and when he heard of it along with the similarities of the case he solved , he quickly took up the job, bought a ticket to America, and set up the meeting as soon as he could possibly attend.

For he had a suspicion of what this could be ...
⠀

⠀
The murder of a man named Tugboat Ted , coincidentally nailed at the top of a telephone pole with rumors of strange things happening on the television at midnight .

A phenomenon that sounded far too close to home for Yu , as something similar happened exactly as so when he was younger .
⠀

⠀
Quietly did the man wait in the back of a cab as it drove through the rainy streets of the town , with an occasional small - talk with the cab driver about town and its people — a means to learn more of his surrounding for the sake of an investigation he picked up on ...
