"Taking any other path would invite suspicion. We go straight through. Act like you belong and no one will be the wiser."
The elevator was ornate, as expected of a casino elevator. Mirrors gave the illusion of space that wasn't there, and distracted from the hidden security cameras. Once they hit the casino floor, the sound of slot machines and cards shuffling wafted at them. No windows, no clocks, just free drinks and pretty waitresses to keep you gambling.
"Let's find out where the security office is. I'm gonna nose around." Acacia casually left the group and found a craps table to leak money on. She had her eyes on a cute waitress in a revealing uniform. The girl must've noticed because she came over and gave Acacia a drink. She knew what to do, she's seen it in so many spy movies before: flirt with the waitress until she spills the beans. Except Acacia didn't know how to flirt. All she could do is look the waitress in the eyes and say "Hello". She finished off her drink and lost another $100 before coming up with plan B.
"Do you know where the security office is?" she said with casual poise. The waitress happily obliged. With objective completed, Acacia returned to the others. "I found it" she said pulling out a napkin with directions written on it. "Its in room 3016 on the third floor. Off the elevator we turn left, make a right on the third hallway, and its the 5th room on the right" On the other side of the napkin she found a lipstick mark with a phone number written on it.
