A lanky black short-hair smoking a Gauloise cigarette, wearing a beret and a stained raincoat exits the car and walks toward the train. Pardon! Bonjour? Pierre comes to the door: "Yes? May I help you?" He pulls out his wallet and shows Pierre his Visa card. "I am Inspektur Jacques Chat-Clouseau of the Gendarmerie Feline du France" and notices Pierre looking quizically at his wallet. He looks, and then opens another compartment which has his official ID card; he shrugs with typical Gallic nonchelance. "I'd like to see your list of passengers, if you would. And I am looking for a particular kitty - a Captain Midnight. Do you know where he is?" Lilith Kitten-Mahoney pokes her head out of the window, from the compartment she and Sammy the 'Venture Kitten are smurgling in. "Just a moment! I'll go get him, sir." Lilith exits the compartment and goes into the dining room, where her bruffer, the Captain, is sharpening his claws on the finely upholstered furniture. She sniffs his tail and then swipes at it, meowing that he is needed outside. Capt. Midnight, The Good Luck Black Cat, quickly washes his whiskers and behind his ears, then leaves the dining room to go outside. "Yes, Inspector Chat-Clouseau? How can I help you?" the good Captain asks most respectfully. "Monsieur Capitaine Midnight, I am Inspektur Jacques Chat-Clouseau of the Gendarmerie Feline du France. I assume you are aware of ze theft of ze jewels just before your train left ze station?" Captain Midnight nods his agreement. "I have been assigned thees case. I am investigating ze theft, and ze clues I have found so far point to somebody riding on this train. I hear through ze grapevine zat you are investigating also. I wonder if you would be so kind as to share the results of your investigation with me?" Captain Midnight replies "Of course! I believe your - car - will be safe there, so why don't you grab your bags and join me in my stateroom. I'll show you what I have so far". The two kitties climb into the car and retire to Capt. Midnight's cabin. Captain Midnight lists all of the evidence he has collected so far: "I'll list them in the order we observed them. First, an odd group of cats boarded the train at the station we left from. Four of them have the appearance of street toughs dressed up in clothes they are unfamiliar with. They are travelling with two well-dressed, well mannered cats who appear to be kitties of some class. They claim to be quality inspectors for a manufacturer of quality cat litter, but the rough part of the group have shown themselves to know nothing of quality litter. I was able to get pawprint ID on all of the rough bunch, but the two well-dressed kitties have no criminal records. The pawprint examination also showed that the bartender kitty has a criminal record from America, but investigation into his background show him living an exemplary lifestyle for the last few years. At our second stop, an older, dignified male cat and an elderly, apparently down-on-her-luck lady cat boarded the train. One of our Community members was able to identify them as the Don-cat of an important underworld clowder and a Countess whose family fortune has seen better days. Finally, we have a reclusive kitty who never leaves his stateroom. I need to talk to our Community members when they return from their daytrip to see if anyone has seen or heard anything of the reclusive cat." Inspector Chat-Clouseau finishes writing his notes and puts his notebook away. "Most impressive, ze information you have collected. I would be honored if you would agree to work wiz me in this investigation". |

"Do you like it, Tiger?" says Monty (just a bit proudly...). "It's a Ducati Multistrada 1000S DS bike, with air-cooled 992 cc engine, Ohlins suspension system front and rear, 6-speed gearbox, and the optional GPS. I ordered the American model, with the non-catalytic emission system, but had them deliver it to the Milan office so I could pick it up there." As he speaks, he unzips and steps out of his jumpsuit, revealing a soft grey ribbed cashmere sweater over an open-collared grey-striped shirt and black trousers. "It's delightful to be here in the sun, with all our friends. It was _so_ chilly in Milan this morning." |

Inspector Chat-Clouseau finishes writing his notes and puts his notebook away. "Most impressive, ze information you have collected.

And the community kitties - where are they now? CM: "They are having lunch at the creamery/winery of the uncle of one of our kitties, they will tour the area until dinner, and then that uncle and our hostesses have arranged a dinner at Trattoria LaBuca. After dinner, we will all return here and the train will continue on to Venice." "Trattoria LaBuca! Isn't that run by Signora Miriam, a Norwegian Forest Kitty? Ahhhh, a famous restaurant..." the Inspector's eyes glaze over as he involuntarily licks his lips "Perhaps we should join them to be certain that ummmm, all is well?" CM: "Certainly, we can do that. Now, shall we ask Pierre again for that passenger list? Or have a little lunch and take a nap until dinner?" The Captain's cell phone rings "Yes, TV, good... um-hum, really? You caught a glimpse of our mystery kitty?" -- Purrs, Mlle. Anaïs 1/11/2005 9:52:47 AM anais+at+electric-ink+dot+com |

"And kitties, there is now a table set up with many of our local cheeses, tiramisu and pastries, nip-tea and espresso. But save some room for dinner tonight, Signora Miriam is cokking a wonderful dinner for you!" " The bus will be leaving again in a hour or so, and will take you through the area and into Milan, if any of you would like to shop - then return to Trattoria LaBuca for an 8:30 dinner. If any of you wish to stay here, we have extra rooms with nap cushions, or you can tour the creamery and winery, and then drive with us to the Trattoria." -- Purrs, Mlle.
