The Mirage Express is a state-of-the-art train, and Amy spared no expense for her birthday. As all of the guests settle in, the news of a murder sets the party awry. Espio is in the library with Vector, Knuckles is in the saloon, Rouge and Blaze are in the casino, Shadow is in the lounge, and Amy and Tails are in the dining car. Espio is reading, and seems very absorbed in his book-- he doesn't even look up when you walk in.
