SECOND INVESTIGATION

INVESTIGATION II

Early to bed, early to rise. At least it seems that's how it was for you last night, no matter what you were doing. Given the events of the past weekend, you might find your mind jumping to conclusions.

Only one way to find out if you're right.

[ Can we get a resounding 'yikes' from everybody? No? Well, time to carry on.

McGillis does not seem particularly fazed by the sight, though he's definitely looked at nicer things in his time. Before moving to undress the body, there's one more thing he'd like to check though: how do his hands look? Are the nails damaged, is there skin under it, are there defensive scratches of any kind? ]
biqe: (tomorrow he's older than today)

[ yikes ]
vogelfrei: (serious; lost in thought)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2021-06-11 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Interesting.

... and actually, we're still not undressing the poor guy, because now McGillis' gaze goes back to his face and the reddish discoloration. Is his whole face splotched red? It probably doesn't look like a normal blush, considering he's dead, right?

And if McGillis leans down and (ew) smells at his parted lips, is there any smell other than, like, blood? ]
vogelfrei: (anger; just really pissed)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2021-06-11 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well, that sucked.

....

Now it is time to unzip his shirt and bare his chest. Does the discoloration stop there, if it's possible to tell through the blood?

And also, how are our wounds looking, generally? ]
vogelfrei: (anger; haunted by ghosts)

[ Someone really went to town on this poor boy. Even McGillis has to grimace at the extent of these injuries. ]

I'll be right back.

[ Though not because he needs a break from the sight and instead just because he's briefly vanishing into his room next door and surfacing with... well, that seems to be a shirt from the boutique during daytime. It also seems to be wet.

And soon it will be a wearable shirt no more because McGillis will wipe down Riku's chest to clear up some of the blood.

This brings to mind several questions: can he now tell if the discoloration goes to his back? Or if it stops anywhere down the torso? Further, is anything of note about the stabs? Serrated edges, clean cuts? And then finally - how deeply is the something embedded? Can he get it out via just going over the stab with his makeshift rag or does he need to actually get his fingers in there? ]
vogelfrei: (serious; hold up)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2021-06-11 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ HEAVING A DEEP SIGH... alright, okay, he's ready.

Let's pluck it out. What is he looking at? ]
vogelfrei: (serious; observation)

[personal profile] vogelfrei 2021-06-11 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Knife tip, get! That'll be useful for identifying the murder weapon if nothing else.

There is one last thing that McGillis would like to check now, which requires him to... take off Riku's shoes once Phil is done there................

But is the discoloration down to his ankles and feet? ]
biqe: (bring with you history)

[personal profile] biqe 2021-06-11 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He's done! And breathing a slight sigh of relief at the knife tip. ]

[ Pauses for a second when he notices that glint...

But anyway, while McGillis is in his room getting his makeshift ShamWow ready, Phil will just check Riku's shoes as long as he's out here checking all the blood trail stuff. He highly doubts he walked here in this condition, but just in case... anything noticeable on the soles? ]
biqe: (staying home can't be that bad for me)

[personal profile] biqe 2021-06-11 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Like, on the top side of the tip of the shoe, or on the front of the sole? ]
biqe: (bring with you history)

[personal profile] biqe 2021-06-11 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ I think so, thanks! ]

...all of these wounds feel a bit like overkill. How worked up was this person?

[Rika is going to crouch down to the ground to observe Riku's injuries. Do they all appear to be the same length/depth and made by the same weapon, if Rika is able to tell?]

Ah...his face is...

[Rika also touches Riku's face and neck. Does the red discoloration feel like a rash, or something else entirely?]

[personal profile] eternaljune 2021-06-12 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Nah, that's gross. Rika can guess that they were all knife-related without poking things, probably.]

...did Riku have any health conditions?

[Tenn would probably know that, but...maybe she should wait until the trial for that line of questioning and give him some space.]
