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.]

Comments

[strangerpeople]

[Nothing but the same tablecloth as the first. SURPRISE!]

[whitemoontiger]

[ Frowning a little, he at least makes to try and inspect the tablecloth that was being covered before. Is there anything off about it or any apparent reason why that other one was covering this? ]

[strangerpeople]

[Nope.]

[whitemoontiger]

[ Okay. With that in mind, he's going to go look and see which of the other tables might be missing it's tablecloth. Maybe he can find out why the one table had two of them. ]

[strangerpeople]

[None of the other tablecloths are missing.]

[whitemoontiger]

[ Oh... now that's really odd.

He straightened up to start looking around the rest of the car now. Is there anything else that really stands out at all in terms of looking out of place in any way or shape? ]

[strangerpeople]

[There is, if he looks in the kitchen area.]

[whitemoontiger]

[ Which is the next place he's going to head to after the Dining Car, eyes scanning the area as soon as he enters it.

Just what stands out in the Kitchen? ]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[One of the knives is missing from the butcher's block.]

[whitemoontiger]

[ O h. That's not good.

He walks up to the block to look at the ones remaining. Is the one missing a smaller knife or a big one? The more details he has, the better. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Definitely a bigger one.]
