3💬 | Fei associates you with theft, pulling you for questioning
Are you an innocent citizen? Perhaps part of the notorious Coghand Crime Ring Syndicate? Or are you someone far, far worse?
A series of thefts involving clockwork tools has exposed ongoing failures within Scotland Yard and all who embody London's law enforcement.
