Case No. 9
BARISTA: THE AUDITOR
CAFE: NONE
DATE: EARLY OCTOBER
RECEIPT ID: INT-01
While I was out and about checking up on the various branches, I figured my first stop should be at Testament. For those unaware, Testament, the second-newest branch of the Cafe and Diner Network, has somehow already managed to rack up a truly staggering amount of debt, far exceeding the operating costs of even the most established Cafes. Ironic, seeing as they guard the Ledger of Fate… Though, they should then very well know that nothing is ever free. I suggested that Jack should force Testament to return the money they have squandered on… shall I say… "Less than legitimate" business. Jack had another idea.
Inventory duty.
As the Cafe and Diner Network has been in operation for at least twenty years now, they have managed to acquire quite the stash of powerful, rare, and unique equipment of the Coffee Trade. In the past, when a rare object was found, stolen, bought, or taken in the name of the Cafe and Diner, it was stashed away in the vaults of the Core Cafe and Diner in Long Beach. It has become impossible to say what we have, what still works, and what simply no longer sparks joy. So, since the fallout of Testament's most egregious misuse of company funds, the contents of the vault have been relocated to an undisclosed location adjacent to Testament, and in the process, they have been tasked with noting what it is we actually have.
If their receipts are accurate, they have inventoried roughly 96% of the Cafe and Diner Network's current holdings. I would like to double-check this for accuracy. Not to say that I do not trust Testament (though I truly don't), but I am also curious about what exactly it is we have… and what still remains unaccounted for. If I am to be the Cafe and Diner's Auditor, I must know what exactly we have to work with.
