Marquis de Carabas [4]
[The Marquis paces about the room restlessly. This is taking much too long. He is a very busy man, thank you very much, and he has things he needs to be doing right now. Wallowing about here is useless.]
Excuse me. I believe that there is a detective among us? If they haven't already been killed, of course, in which case this will be of no use. But if the detective is still here, it would, frankly, be of great help for them to reveal their findings. I understand that doing so would pose a great personal risk to him or herself, but it needn't be done publicly. If we could all choose someone we trust, the detective could contact them privately, and we would be able to use anything useful to our advantage. I volunteer myself, of course, if that's an agreeable arrangement.
