INT. INVESTIGATOR OFFICE — MORNING
内景 · 调查员办公室 · 上午
A polished client requests discreet surveillance and provides convincing personal details but avoids independent identity checks.
一名举止得体的客户请求秘密监视，提供了令人信服的个人细节，却回避独立身份核验。
CLIENT
The details prove I know the family, and any delay will allow the subject to hide the truth.
这些细节证明我了解这个家庭，任何延误都会让调查对象隐藏真相。
INVESTIGATOR
I need verified identity, written authority, purpose, true beneficiary, conflicts, payment source, lawful scope, and a stop condition before any observation begins.
开始观察前，我需要核实身份、书面授权、目的、真实受益人、利益冲突、付款来源、合法范围和停止条件。
CLIENT
Send the checklist; I understand that no work begins until an independent contact confirms it.
请发核验清单；我明白，在独立联系人确认前不会开始工作。
The pause protects both the subject and the investigator from a convincing but unauthorized story.
暂停保护了调查对象和调查员，使其免受一个可信却未经授权的故事伤害。
