THE SECOND INVESTIGATION

[The morning starts as...most mornings do. Quiet, calm. In space. Next to a jail.

That, however, changes when screams start to emanate from the entrance.]

RUN RUUUUN!!

AAAAAAAH!!

[Soon enough, droves of people are streaming out of the jail, panicking and screaming and in some cases fainting. They start jamming towards the station in a near-stampede, screeching.]

LOOSE! THEY'RE LOOSE!!

THE ANIMALS HAVE ESCAPED THE PEN!!

[...Oh dear.

Help?]

Comments

[eternaldivide]

[ Mithos takes a... moment to ready himself before actually touching the body. He'll carefully slip his hand under and carefully flip Atsushi over.

Anything of notice right as he does so?]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[There are gouge wounds on his right shoulder, and one on his arm.

There's also a large wound on his chest. Again, there is no blood-but there is wax.]

[eternaldivide]

[..... by chance if we look at the neck wound again would any possibility of blood be wax instead?

And is there anything else about the right shoulder or arm wounds or are we moving on to the last of the wounds further down. ]

[strangerpeople]

[The neck is waxy, but there is none leaking.

Otherwise, feel free to look elsewhere on the body.]

[eternaldivide]

[ okay... suspicions confirmed now lets move down to his legs since it looks like there is an injury there as well? ]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[There is a pretty sizable wound around his ankles. Like. Large. Almost like someone carved the the majority of wound into him. Somehow.]

Re: EVIDENCE

[eternaldivide]

[ okaaayy that is... odd. Around the ankles is not where someone normally sees the largest wounds.

Anything else of note for the wounds? If not Mithos will... move on to see if Atsushi had anything on his person like a pocket or something. ]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[There is one thing about all of the wounds, when taken together: they all look...unusually big for someone who died of "penetrative trauma".]

[eternaldivide]

[ That ... is strange. Let's look over the body once more for anything that might've been the actual cause of death? Wounds these big wouldn't be considered penetrative, would they. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Most of these wounds are not entirely indicative of something that could kill someone. The only wound that could be reasonably believed to be the fatal wound would be the one to the chest.

Then again, apparently Astushi apparently had wax in him this whole time, so who knows how the hell things work with that.]

[eternaldivide]

[ hmmm.... maybe it's because he was apparently had wax in him that made it fatal ...

Well, while Mithos is finishing up looking at the body does anything else stick out? Or are we done and Mithos can finally look away. ]

[strangerpeople]

[Maybe!

In any case, Mithos has found everything that can be found on the body itself. Time to look elsewhere, perhaps.]
