Not down on any map
Welcome to a Halloween story with my police sims! It starts out with a murder case, and ends as… time travel? Or are things not as they seem? This chart shows the characters with their current life...

The couple’s cheerfulness stands in stark contrast to Hank tensing up when he enters the floor leading to the DPD’s holding cells. Right in the first one stands Sigstein Connor, the infamous (and evil) Chief of Security of the Magic HQ.

The first time the DPD had this particular suspect in custody, Siggy had mocked them all with his guitar play. Today he looks lost in thought.
When he hears Hank approach, Sigstein turns around.
“Hello, Uncle Hank...”
Okay, there it is, the first reminder why Hank had been happy to leave this job behind. If he wanted sass, he could cross the street and go talk to the Reeds. He definitely doesn’t need it from suspects. Not even if said suspects indeed are somewhere on the confusing Reed-Kamski-Manfred-Anderson-Phillips family tree.

“Hello, Sigstein”, Hank replies in a neutral tone. “Don’t think I had forgotten that you turned me into a sturgeon!”
Not a single cussword in two sentences, Sigstein notices. Should he worry now?
(Nah, Siggy, that’s just because this story is for the Sims forum. You all can swear like sailors back home, but not here.)
“I assume you’ll want to interrogate me now?” Sigstein carefully asks. Hank is not prepared for the spellcaster’s reaction when he nods to this question:
“Good!” Sigstein exclaims. “Then someone will finally tell me what exactly I’m suspected of!”
“The cops didn’t tell you?”
The spellcaster shrugs.
“They assume I already know.”
Hank frowns. This is highly irregular, especially with Connor being in charge at the DPD now. Hank’s successor is too much a stickler to protocol to let something like not reading the rights slide. Maybe Gavin was throwing a “Androids aren’t persons, so no rights for you” fit again? Connor’s right hand has long left behind this attitude, but might just play up his old persona in front of Sigstein.
“It’s part of reading someone their rights, though”, Hank insists, unwilling to believe that Gavin and Connor allowed themselves a slip that could get their whole investigation work invalidated. “The officer who arrested you must have said something like “You’re under arrest for turning people into fishes!”.”
“Did, too”, Sigstein relents. “But do you have any idea, how little that narrows it down?”
Ah, okay. Hank nods to himself. That sounds more like it.
He unlocks the cell door.
“Follow me, c-hole.”
