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.

[He hasn't even gone that far into the bakery yet but yes. If he knew the slang it would be yikes all around and down the street. There's a pause as he glances again at the little pile of metal and shards in his hands, tilts his head just a little as though trying to imagine the medicinal properties of... whatever this was.

He has no frame of reference at all, though. Perhaps it's just a medicine box.]

No, we have been very careful while investigating. I paid especial attention to the position of everything before I gathered it up, and I was going to find someone who might be able to piece it back together... [it seems his spatial memory is fairly good, because he secures the ex-inhaler and then easily points out the original position and the general area of how the pieces were scattered, all the way out] It was lying here, crushed like this, and the pieces were lying here, here, and then a good distance there.

[ God, hearing all of this makes him feel sick. Someone crushing Riku's medication -- they really didn't need to do that to kill him, now did they? It just feels like an extra gut punch. ]

Whoever did this is sick.

[ He'll save his other comments for the trial, he supposes... ]

Thank you...for helping with this. I know...you would've done this for anyone else, but... I want to find his killer.

All of this does not... seem to be the product of a sound mind. Riku certainly did not deserve such a fate. So...

[There is an apologetic note in his voice, possibly for getting caught up enough in trying to remember the details that he didn't properly couch his description, but there are very few ways to soften a scene like this. And all of the broken things in this; all of the broken pieces rattling around both within and without.

It seems as though it is Tenn's wish to look directly at it and to move forward, else he wouldn't have come directly to the scene this way -- regardless of what he might find. So after a hesitation, Jack nods.]

We must find this individual for his sake, and everyone's as well. Just be careful as we confront each other this coming judgement. We don't yet know just what this culprit may do if cornered.

[Also, since they're presumably both staring at the floor, I'm just going to ask what's the state of the floor pastries.]

[Just in the interest of time I'm going to branch off real quick and say this takes place a little later after they've gotten their dead people murder drama out. Sooo... Is there a particular type of pastry corresponding to the displays? Does the blood look like they just rolled on the floor or was someone beaned to death with a croissant? Overall does this just look like collateral damage.

Also what's the deal with the glass, does it look like it came from the display cases?]

[personal profile] heroicact 2021-06-12 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, so definitely collateral damage... Somebody really had it in for this bakery. What's the position of the baked goods relative to the inhaler and the display cases, by the way. While I'm at it, what about inhaler relative to footprints? We might need a diagram for this bakery because this scene is a mess.

He's crouched on the floor for a closer look, trying to take care not to accidentally bang his head on the display cases or something -- but yes.

Anything unusual with the glass? Inquiring minds need to know.]

[You’re the best fruit. The entire bowl is the best fruit but you get fruit MVP for the day ~ ☆

Dark and brown..... dare he hope it’s chocolate? It is probably sadly not chocolate but Jack will... carefully shift the display a little because he doesn’t want to knock it over by accident. We don’t need any more broken bits in here... What does he uncover...?]
heroicact: (qué intensifies)

[Wait??? This is a little alarming to find suddenly under such nice (somewhat not-as-nice) cupcakes...?! Not that it should be a surprise but you know. Uh. Well. He sort of stares at these murder boots for a few moments like a deer in headlights before he remembers that he’s actually supposed to interact with them. Yikes.

Just... going back to a crouch where he’d startled back up to his feet and doing his best to examine these things. How bloody are they? Is he going to need new gloves??]
heroicact: (the mikan king!!!)

[personal profile] heroicact 2021-06-12 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He will... definitely do that later. They’re perfectly white too, but at least the boutique’s likely got him covered. With a small wince he’s going to try to pick them up by a non-bloody bit for a more careful perusal.

Also we’re going to speed-run this because we can:

1. Comparing the size to the footprints from earlier
2. If they don’t match, comparing them to everyone in the bakery
3. Is the bottom bloody? Or is it other parts of the boot? Anything unusual about the blood splatter? What direction is it?
4. Anything inside them???]
heroicact: (¿qué the fuck?)

[personal profile] heroicact 2021-06-12 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow he’s not sniffing it?? He’s not resorting to that, somebody else can do that goodbye.

Okay a few more questions:

1. What type of boots are these? Old or new? Wear and tear? Do they look like they could have come from the boutique or are they more unique and could have conceivably come from someone’s world?
2. Unisex or no?
3. Does the blood look to be about the same consistency/dryness as the rest of the blood in the bakery? Is there some way like tread etc. to match it more directly to the footprints?]
