A man opened the door at Ricardo's insistent knock. He was dark-haired and bearded, with a strong build but slightly paunchy stomach. He kept the door open a crack, taking in Ricardo's appearance for a few moments before ushering him inside.
"I'm Enrique," he said, showing Ricardo to a very used chair in the living room. "I don't know what you could want to talk about. I already told the police all I know."
He looked a bit agitated. Was he hiding something?

Maya surveyed the street, trying to picture the events as they'd occurred according the newspaper. It's too bad it had been in such a high traffic area. By now, any blood from the one who'd been shot was probably gone. She might have been able to use it for a spell to figure out what kind of creature it was.
A police car came around the corner, and she quickly made herself discreet. He approached a house and was let in. That had to be the witness' house. Too bad she couldn't pull a fake FBI investigation down here.
Maya stole quietly over to the house, trying to gauge where the two were. Through the window, she spotted them sitting down in the living room. That was fortunate. This should work then.
She made her way along the side of the house to where the living room should be. Kneeling down, she pulled out a bottle of glossy nail polish and began to paint a sigil onto the paneling of the house. When it was finished, she blew on it to help it dry before pressing her ear to it.
"Ah, perfect," she murmured. She could hear every word clear as day.
