Levi had given Joel the rest of the day to talk to Spencer, just as he said he would. After that he had called Cosette, Spencer and Lara and asked them to come down to the station. The reassurances of "no you're not in trouble" and "we just need to talk to you" or "I can let you know down at the station" were met with various degrees of acceptance. Honestly he would have preferred to conduct the interviews elsewhere but since he was letting them know they might be in danger he thought the security of the police station would be the best place for that.
Also, his relationship with Lara, whatever it was, complicated things slightly. He was fairly certain she wasn't the blonde mentioned in the note but he couldn't dismiss the possibility that it was. Levi wanted to make sure it didn't seem like any of the potential victims were getting preferential treatment.
So he had booked one of the conference rooms, which was a lot less formal than an interrogation room but more private than his desk, to speak with each of them. None of them were under any sort of suspicion but Levi needed to find out if any of them had seen something out of the ordinary lately and then warn them they might be in danger. The order of that was important but it was never fun. People always wanted to know why you were asking certain questions but contrary to what they thought, that didn't always help with the answers. You could always ask the questions again once they knew but you couldn't put that cat back in the bag once it was out.
Setting a water bottle in front of the empty seat across from him, Levi waited for his first interviewee to arrive.

If they don't hear from you they should definitely call us," Levi explained. He didn't have much hope that Cosette would take all the suggested precautions. It wasn't just her, it was everyone. No one liked to think that they needed to take extra measures to be safe because that meant what they did every day wasn't necessarily safe.
"Don't go anywhere isolated by yourself, stick to public areas."

Her safety was at stake and she was acting like it would be horribly inconvenient for her to try and not get killed.
"At least think about it. At the very least I'm sure Joel would feel better knowing you were being extra cautious."
