Looks like we got a rather strange customer on our front doorstep this morning—literally. I'm sure you've all seen Mr. Higden already. He's fairly hard to miss. He certainly seems to be a clingy customer. Hard to get out of your hair… and clothes. I've been trying hydrogen peroxide myself with no luck. That is a good indication that he's probably more than he seems on the surface. We're going to need #53 to blur this one, as we cannot be the only ones to have noticed his arrival. I'm sure he can cook up some sort of satisfactory pseudoscience. In the meantime, I can share what I've been able to find out about Mr. Higden.
Obviously, he's far from our average customer in size, appearance, and general composition. Easily spotted with his bright red hair. We need to ensure the Cafe is stocked with iron-rich foods to curb Mr. Higden's anemia. He's been pumping and pouring all across Long Beach and must have a lot of cash to spend—quite possibly a rainy-day fund. My early guess is that he'll come into the Cafe at around 3 o'clock. Though I could see him coming in later, around 5 or 6… maybe 7, but that's cutting it close to closing.
So far, Mr. Higden has been coming and going in spurts. I'm not sure when or if he'll show up again, but he seems to prefer hanging around in the early morning and evenings, around dusk and dawn. He shows up for 10 to 20 minutes at most. He's got a very noticeable smell when he's about to show up. I've been doing my best to get a read on how and where he likes to coagulate using the trackers we set up for Miss. Andrews, and… hardly a surprise… he seems particularly drawn to the Open Doors Church.
