Outcome

Prior

Excellent communication skills pay off
Finally, [s1.name] pries information out of an urchin. Squatting indifferently in the corner, the urchin says, "I saw the lady come back, yeah, with a little one ‘bout yay high, right? Lives up in the Governor’s mansion, she does. I even heard ‘em at it that night, arguin’ loud. Next thing I know, the Governor says no one’s to breathe a word of it. See, most folk round here can’t so much as lift a finger without his say-so – everyone’s dependin’ on him for their bread. But me? I got nothin’ to lose. Ain’t had a proper bite in days..." he shrugs and asks you, "you from the big city, ain’t ya? Could you boot ‘im out, maybe? That Governor’s right harsh. Folk ‘round here’s barely better off than me, farmin’ just to go hungry."

[s1.name] buys him some buns in appreciation. It seems a new suspect has emerged in this case.
