THE THIRD INVESTIGATION

[As people wake up in the morning after last night's party, and exit their rooms, they will hear something...unusual as they get closer to Yotsukoshi's entrance.

Inhuman screeching.

It actually sounds like an animal of some kind...]

Comments

[strangerpeople]

[A bitter, apple-y smell emanates from the inside of the bottle.]

[incrediblystressedout]

...did they poison the aspirin?

[Why that and not a drink?]

[byanyother_name]

That seems unwise. Wouldn't that be counting on Sanzashi-san drinking enough to need it?

[Are there any actual pills in the bottle?]

[strangerpeople]

[No.]

[byanyother_name]

[Is there anything besides that smell in the bottle?]

[strangerpeople]

[There are some seeds, but nothing else.

And in case he or Joey checks, while there is also a flowery smell outside of the bottle, it doesn't have anything else otherwise incriminating or even remotely notable.]

[incrediblystressedout]

Okay, that's weird. I get that what we're smelling is probably poison, but what's with the flowery smell?

[byanyother_name]

[Kurama shakes his head a little, his expression uncertain as he glances at Joey.]

...I'm not sure. The poison remnants smell a bit of apple, perhaps it has something to do with the garden center?

[He's going to give one more check of the bar area before moving to look in the trash can. They've been finding a lot of things in trashcans.]

[strangerpeople]

[Nothing in the trash can, nothing else around the bar area, at least behind the counter.]

[incrediblystressedout]

[Joey sighs.]

I guess we should go check the arcade, too...

[Anything obvious over there or is it time to crawl on the floor and check under the cabinets.]

[byanyother_name]

[Definitely checking around the various machines before anything to do with the probably dirty floor, yeah.]

[strangerpeople]

[speaking of the floor...]
