"Ah, like everywhere."
"Yes. Let's look for him everywhere!"
"But really…"
"Okay, I suggest you find out if there is anything at all valuable about monkey eyes," said Ben.
"And where would I find out that?"
"A monkey shop?"
"Okay then. What will YOU do?"
"I'll stick around and interrogate those two." Ben pointed to the couple fondling each other in the corner.
Hugh glared at Ben for a moment and left.
