THE FOURTH INVESTIGATION
(~SK. 24)



[Morning, Strangers! There's no sun shining, there're no birds singing, the threat of memory loss hangs in the air, and--oh.




That sure is a trail of blood in the D Deck hallway where the bedrooms are. But. I'm sure it's nothing, right?








Right??????!!?]

[... so most likely cyanide, in other words. Definitely bringing this along with him.

OKAY, IS THERE ANYTHING LEFT HE HASN'T CHECKED...]

[strangerpeople]

[Well, Gai, your pick your poison: the bed clue first, or the floor one?]

[voidseeing]

[BED because we die like men...!]

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[ALL RIGHT.





There is clear blood splatter on the bed.]

[voidseeing]

[HIS CAMERA IS GETTING A WORKOUT TODAY okay which end of the bed are we talking here or is it sort of... all over the bed?]

[strangerpeople]

[It's...all over the bed, most of it concentrated in the corner closest to the door. Someone bled a lot here.






But that's nothing compared to the floor!]

[voidseeing]

[WE LOVE TO SEE IT except not. So what's up with the blood splatter on the floor...]

[strangerpeople]

[Well. There's a lot of blood on the floor, enough to make clear that whoever bled here? Died here. There's too much blood to refute this.



But that's not the crazy thing. You wanna know the crazy thing, Gai?]

[voidseeing]

[I MEAN HE PROBABLY DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO KNOW but. Sure, what's the crazy thing?

EVIDENCE

[strangerpeople]

[Psssst. C'mere. C'mere, Gai. I'm about to make your head explode.






Looking at the blood, it's clear that whoever bled here? Whoever clearly died here at this spot near the bed?


They got up and left the infirmary afterwards regardless.]

Re: EVIDENCE

[voidseeing]

[... that's not disturbing at all, nope. No signs of zombies or the functional equivalent here, nosirree.

Will he be able to follow the blood trail to see where it goes...]

[strangerpeople]

[Yup. It goes into the hallway.]

[voidseeing]

[Okay, so which direction are we talking about here... where was our possibly-a-zombie headed...]

[strangerpeople]

[Looks like it was headed towards the laundry.




And that's all you're going to get, for now. Good job.]
