THE THIRD INVESTIGATION
(~SK. 17)


[It's Friday, Friday. Or...something like that. What is up with the calendar in this place?


Anyways, everyone knows what's happened in the past two weeks: someone has died. And, unfortunately, there's no reason to think someone else has not fallen prey to someone who wishes to fulfill the motive. But...maybe you're lucky this time. Maybe someone doesn't have someone they hate enough to kill for. Let's be honest with ourselves-saving someone you love is understandable. Switching with someone you hate? Surely no one would go that far for someone that they don't like.



Right?

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[ There's a melted, discarded marker. If it had any fingerprints on it, they've long since burned away. ]

[pegasinister]

[Gross. Is it still hot to the touch?]

[strangerpeople]

[ Yes. ]

[pegasinister]

[And of course SOMEONE still has his gloves. Thank the Saints that no one is there to see him do the touch ow touch ow dance of trying to pick up something hot. He gets there eventually bless his heart]

[strangerpeople]

[ We're here to see it, Hubert.

Does he continue looking after that? ]

[pegasinister]

[Yep]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[ There's a book there, with several words and letters cut out.

If he's been to the Lounge recently, he'd recognize it's stolen from there. ]

[pegasinister]

[DISGUSTING!!

...he would be the type to note down all the missing letters and words but he has other evidence to find]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[ There's also tattered, burned papers.

Wait.

Hubert's name is there?! Made up of letters cut and pasted from the book. ]

[pegasinister]

[wait what]

[strangerpeople]

[ It's right there, plain and clear, staring up at him.

H u b e r t ]

[pegasinister]

....

[He looks at the incinerator controls for a loooong moment. Then back at the note. Then back.

He could do it. No one else is here.]

[strangerpeople]

[ Will he?

It'd be so easy, huh? ]

1/2

[pegasinister]

[pegasinister]

....

[but he puts it in his pocket instead]
