" How about this," Christel said, sending him a file preview. " 1895. A prominent entomologist traveled to a small town in Wisconsin to study a rare type of moth. He was found flayed, hung up on the church. It sent the whole state into hysteria for months, but the murderer was never found."

" So flashy," Allen remarked. " Are you alright with it? You seemed more than a little put off by the violence in the Marian Lu case."

Christel looked away from him, crossing his arms.

" I'll be fine. It's my first time having to do things like this, is all. I'm just taking time to adjust," he said.

" 1895... Could be difficult without contemporary digital access," Allen said, thinking out loud.

" That's the whole reason I chose it," Christel responded. " All the electricity in London gave me a headache..."

" You'll still have to go through archival databases and such," Allen said.

" That's better than having to look through thousands of unsecured cameras at once," Christel said.

" I see. Duly noted. I'm fine with this, then," Allen said.

" I'll call in our operator," Christel said.
