First Investigation

[airlockedmods]

[On Friday, C.E.C.E.'s morning announcement goes out as usual. But people coming out of their rooms to begin their day may notice a faint thumping sound coming from down the hall.

Investigate?]

I think so. But I don't understand it. This is clearly deliberate, you don't simply accidentally stab someone in the gut, so...why bother? Why bother with this whole set-up?

[immaculacies]

The case file on these things, [she taps her P.I.P. with one finger] it says there are two victims. And one died hours later. Maybe she found Chitose and tried to help, but the murderer interrupted?

[A stab to the stomach isn't a quick death, after all. Chitose could have been lying here for hours.]

Did you find anything else?

[Manaka gives the room around her a quick glance over, and then Chitose's body receives the same. Anything else that might catch the eye?]

That's an idea, but then why do...this with the rags? If you wanted to hide them for some reason, you'd put them in your room, or in the trash, not under her head like trying to give her comfort.

No, the room itself doesn't seem to be all that important, aside from this is where she was.

...Here. We know she was moved and there was already something under her head. [It doesn't feel right to just like...roll her over like a bag of bones, so he cradles one arm under her knees, the other under her shoulders, and lifts her up.

Anything under her body?]
