Dawson was a man of exceptional proportions. He had a strong build and wasn’t afraid to show it casually through what he wore. Dark cargo pants and a loose civilian shirt was what he wore today at the police headquarters.

He strolled inside, noting the rather attractive looking secretary and asked if police chief Robiero was in. Upon learning that there was a rather sudden change up and a new police chief had arrived, he had decided to seek the new chief out. Hopefully the work he had accomplished in capturing those terrible ‘goons’ as they seemed to want to be called, hadn’t been lost in the changeup. After all, the previous chief had allowed Dawson access to what they figured out. Maybe there hadn’t been an interview yet?

“Very well,” replied Dawson. “Is Chief Karlson in?”

The woman nodded, allowing the El-Aurian to enter directly. It was a spacious room. On the left were two large bookcases filled to the brim with actual physical books, psychology, military history, the Federation Constitution and the like. On the right was a short wooden cabinet and hanging above it where seven framed pictures of the Large Commissioner shaking hands with certain Individuals, One with a Starfleet Admiral, another with Him in Marine dress uniform shaking the hands with another as dressed General Officer. Three Photos with him and the last three Governors of Oed and on top with him shaking hands with the last two UFP Presidents. Just next to the cabinet was a sofa, two lounge chairs and a coffee table facing the great view from the Tower. At the very end of the Office was a large Wooden desk with two chairs in front of it. It was tidy, had a single Computer Console, a single photo frame facing in and a tall glass filled with ice. On either side were four flags, on the Left the Oed V colony flag next to the Icelandic National flag and on the right the UFP flag next to the flag of the Starfleet Marine Corps

Joseph was sitting in on of the lounge chairs reading something of a PaDD, a steaming cup of something was on the Coffee desk infront of him. He looked up at the man who just entered his room “Ah, Mr Dawson. Please join me” He indicated to the large leather sofa and lounge chair “Anything to drink?” He said as he reached for his cup of tea and took a short sip.

Commissioner Karlson

Bump

Dawson shook his head. “No thank you, sir.” He was a man of business and the pleasantries weren’t needed. “I was curious about any information regarding the two miscreants who broke into Judge Rousseau’s villa. The last Police Chief never got back with me. Its part of a continuing investigation I’ve been pursuing.”

Dawson knew that time was critical. If he didn’t get the info he needed, this one chance to catch the man behind it all would disappear for a time.

Joseph leaned back in his chair and took another sip from his tea. “Is it?” He feigned ignorance, his smile a blend of politeness and amusement “And what does this investigation entail?” He asked without giving anything in return.

Commissioner Karlson

“It entails the potential catch of a new crime lord. Its a name I’ve never heard but apparently he’s a rising ‘star’ as it were. But after this recent incident, I think he seriously goofed up. Has your department conducted their investigation of the two culprits?” inquired Dawson. Dawson noticed that the commissioner hadn’t given him anything but more questions. He could understand. After all the man was the new commissioner and had no idea who Dawson was. Unless the man had done research already on him, he likely wouldn’t know that Dawson’s company supplied a decent portion of weaponry and training to the Oed police force. Dawson’s company was unlike any other in this.

Joseph took a moment to finish his lovely cup of tea. He lowered the cup into its saucer and raised himself in his seat before talking “I have over seven thousand Officers working in over twenty different departments” He grabbed his cane and slowly stood up until he faced the El-Aurian. The man could now clearly understand the Commissioners true size, although only slightly taller he was at least two times wider than the ancient. Joseph smiled “And of those dozens of departments and thousands of officers I do not recall your name being on our payroll” He spoke with a certain amusement, he wasn’t mocking the man, just simply having fun. He walked across the office to his desk and sat in his large leather chair. He chuckled as he sat down “I don’t know what my predecessor was supposed to be getting back to you with, did you get him information on this mystery player of yours” He casually tapped his computer screen without looking at Dawson.

Commissioner Karlson

Dawson was unmoved by the man’s size. It was rare for even well trained El Aurians to out maneuver him. A human was the least of his worries. However, Dawson was a keen observer. This was the Police Commissioner’s area. Going in and demanding information from his predecessor simply wouldn’t work. He moved over to the man’s desk and took a seat easily. He propped one leg over his other as he leaned back. “He didn’t really ask for much information. Truth be told, he probably didn’t realize who those two worked for. I told him it was an important investigation for me and he agreed to give me any information he found out from them. It appears he had to leave in hurry though.”

He waited to see what the commissioner’s next move was.

-Dawson, Owner of Secret Securities

“Yes, quite the hurry” Joseph smiled at the information on his screen before turning back to Dawson “Well tit for tat is what they say. No, the two perpetrators have not been properly interrogated, a few rounds with some Constables in the Burglary Division but as far as I know they haven’t been very productive” He leaned back in his chair and interlocked his fingers with a smile “So tell me, Mr Dawson, What is it you hope to gain from this investigation, what can you contribute and of course who is this mysterious villain of yours”

Commissioner Karlson

Dawson was a little more willing to speak after hearing what information there was. “There’s word on the streets of a new crime lord in business. But nobody has seen this figure yet. Or at least, nobody has given a true description of the person. The police have caught quite a few people and gotten very little information to go on. The descriptions people give of this figure, while detailed, are always of someone else. Police keep catching people involved in crime, but its never this figurehead they all mention.”

If the commissioner decided to look through his records, he would find instances that would verify what Dawson was saying.

Dawson continued. “I considered the new cabinet coming in and thought about what that could mean for this ‘organization’ as it were. Take out the leaders of Oed, and chaos could ensue. Or at least a big enough gap to do what you wanted for at the very least a brief amount of time before starfleet stepped in and took over. Either way, I had tabs on houses that were going to the cabinet and when I had realized that Judge Astrid Rousseau had arrived a bit earlier than expected, I decided to stay nearby. And I’m glad I did, because that led to my discovery those two nitwits setting up cameras to monitor her home.”

“They could have some valuable information. They weren’t described by any of the other criminals caught. I’m curious if they were more closely involved with this new crime boss. We need more information.”

-Dawson, Owner of Secret Securities

Joseph nodded slowly at the man’s rather detailed assessment. He was moderately impressed that he built such a network in the short time he’d lived on the Colony. “Well with the increased security I’ve implemented since my arrival I’d truly pity anyone attempting such amateurish stuff again” He referenced to the home invasion “But I do thank you for your service Mr Dawson, as I understand it you were essential in keeping Judge Rousseau safe” Joseph stood up again, grabbing his cane “So how about we go and say hi to these so-called nitwits” He smiled and started walking to the door. Why he had decided to allow Dawson to join him after being so coy was uncertain, but his willingness seemed to come out of nowhere.

Commissioner Karlson.

Dawson didn’t trust the man quite yet. But he had given him access. He would give the commissioner some good faith and trust he wasn’t out to take advantage of him. Dawson stood up and gave a nod of his head in reply as he followed the man out of his office.

OOC: I’ll let you go ahead and set us up with the meeting if you like. :)

After a few minutes of travelling to another part of the city, the pair was escorted through a Police station into the main interrogation Rooms. The interview room was a simple desk attached to the floor and two pairs of chairs on either side. The two burglars were sitting on one side. Dawson could see them through a type of one way mirror as Karlson led him passed the room itself into another larger room. inside was the surveillance control were two technicians sat and monitored the Captives. The station had been moderately busy. After a moment of silent waiting the pair was joined by a man in full uniform. He shook Karlson’s hand with great delight “Commissioner, delighted to have you back” Joseph smiled “Very good to be back, Zilo” The new arrival turned to Dawson “I’m Superintendent Zilo, I’m head of this station. AS I understand you will be assisting the Commissioner with interrogating the two ding-dongs in room 2” The superintendent was a short and plump man with a walrus-like mustache, fairly easy going. “Well you two have fun and I’ll be in my office should you need anything” He turned to Karlson again and smiled “Joe” He nodded as he turned and walked… well waddled away. Joseph smiled as the man left “Well Dawson, do you have a plan of attack?”
