However - interesting moments too. So, the dialogues are quite interactive, meaning that we not only hear, but can and do ask questions (including a few "aggressive" - for example, whether the interlocutor is an alibi for the time of the murder). In addition, the game has a moment like eavesdropping: if we're lucky, we can overhear the conversation one NPC to another (is responsible for this option). If it was done, then in a future conversation with him will have the opportunity to choose additional topics (about things which we overheard). But just in case keep in mind that the game is time limited, it is, especially given the fact that it is not easy, sometimes severely hampered.
Taxi drops you off at Victoria Station. Inside Victoria Station where the murder took place.
