THE FIRST INVESTIGATION

THE FIRST INVESTIGATION

[Friday morning dawns. It's a surprisingly brisk day; the winds are cold outside, and the sky is dark with its lack of sky. Well, a normal sky that one would be used to, at least.

The rats can be heard scurrying to and forth, in the walls. All seems to be as normal as it can be, this morning.]

EVIDENCE SEARCH

[strangerpeople]

DINING CAR, LEVEL 1

[strangerpeople]

[overworker]

[Towa doesn't know much about engineering, but-- Proto Man had been a good person, who'd listened to her at a time when she needed it. So the least she can do is try to use what she's learned from George to help solve his murder.

So she's going to take a look at his body. Is there any telling what kind of liquid it is on him first?]

[strangerpeople]

[Towa might with to take up Beato's suggestion of rubber gloves, but even before those are procured, she can tell that there's definitely water on him. Obviously.]

[charmingheroine]

[Towa has inspection of the body in hands, or so it seems. If this is where he was found, though... all right, was there an obvious trail of damage left by a fight?]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[There is indeed some signs of a struggle around the area of Proto's body, and indeed, throughout the dining car, though not as much as there is in the former.]

[unwittingking]

[Okay so today is awful and he had to go make sure Minato doesn't have to look at a robot corpse, and right now the best thing that he might be able to do is do some searching, though not looking at the actual body because he knew the kid well and it would be sad and...yeah.

So, anything of interest?]

[strangerpeople]

[King and Charlotte both find this one! Technically.]

DINING CAR, LEVEL 2

[strangerpeople]

[whitemoontiger]

[ Perhaps spurred on by not being in the same car right then, Atsushi is quick to head up to the other dining car. They have to find out who did this to Proto.

Is there anything right away he's going to notice? ]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[Well, Atsushi will immediately notice a tablecloth askew on one of the tables near the stairs.]

[telecosmetic]

[Well, Eliza's here after investigating those stairs. What can she find here? She's going to pay special attention to the floor first.]

[zackthekiller]

You think the guy was pushed down the stairs, somehow?

[Zack's gonna wander over to the Kitchen himself.]

AREA CLEAR

[strangerpeople]

DINING CAR STAIRWAY

[strangerpeople]

[telecosmetic]

[Eliza's experiences have taught her to look at the smaller things, what might end up overlooked. So here she comes up the stairs, peering carefully at them instead of just heading right upstairs. What's she going to find?]

[zackthekiller]

[Whelp. Zack's shit at body touching so he's just gonna follow Eliza around like a violent Watson.]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[Her observation will let her notice that the stairs are a bit damaged. Not all of them, and not majorly, but most of them have things like small-to-medium-ish scratches, splinters, and noticeable scuffs.]

AREA CLEAR

[strangerpeople]

ARMAMENTS CAR

[strangerpeople]

[awitchdidit]

[The Armaments car should have convenient painkillers, as well as apparently evidence? Might as well check that first.]

[technicolourdifficulties]

[RGB heads to the Armaments car when he gets the news because really, it's way too early to look at dead bodies, especially when the cause of death is a little too close to home.

Oh, hi fancy lady he hasn't really talked to yet.]

Quite a start to the morning, isn't it?

AREA CLEAR

[strangerpeople]

ENGINE CAR

[strangerpeople]

[katzenpfote]

[People are covering the body examination, which is good because he does not understand robots.]

[Let's wander down towards the Engine Car, then. What's here on a quick glance?]
