"Given there is four of us we could ask both. Colin and I could find the manager while Gina and May could talk with the dairy section employee." Sally suggested.

Heading for the dairy section Gina and May looked around before spotting a cow in a uniform. "Excuse me, do you work in this section?" Gina asked.

"Yes. How can I help?" the cow asked. "We understand you recently had a...mouse...problem." May said.

"I...Don't know what you're talking about. Such a thing in a grocery store would be bad for business. That's why we work hard to keep the store tidy." She said.

"We know about the cheese incident." Gina said. "We're trying to capture the one responsible."

The cow looked around before gesturing for the two to follow. Leading them into the back she began to talk quietly. "We thought we'd gotten rid of it given the manager watched the pest control guy cage it. But then a week later the mouse reappeared. It began taste testing just about every piece of cheese we had and leaving these weird goopy spots everywhere it stepped."

"No, though not long after we lost the new stockboy. He just didn't show up to work anymore."

"Your stockboy?" Gina asked. "How long ago was this?" May asked.

"Five days ago. The manager things he found some new poodle to chase after. I'm not so sure. He started to seem like he was taking the job seriously after a few days."

"Poodle...so he was a dog..." Gina said. "5 days...then it wasn't too long ago." May said. "We have reason to believe that your stockboy was kidnapped."

"What? By who and why?" The cow asked, looking concerned. "We think he fit the profile they were looking for. I take it he didn't have family?" Gina asked.

"No...he lived alone." the cow said.
