INVESTIGATION 2

Sometime during the late hours of the night, the clouds rolled in with their load and let loose upon the unsuspecting streets down below. It's the end of another week in Krakow, another week in this unending night and another week where The Lady's motive lay in wait. As the bell tolls seven, the rain continues to soak the city below as fog crowds the air, although it's not nearly as suffocating as the kind found blanketing a large portion of the city.

Are you awake this fine morning? And if you are, just where are you hanging around today?

AREA INVESTIGATIONS

[umbralant]

AQUARIUM

[umbralant]

[baitless]

[...sigh, okay. Time to figure out how to get Lysithea out of the damned aquarium, because like hell he’s leaving her in there! Ugh where even is the way to get up in the tanks...]

[pr159]

[ Ugh... ]

Hold on a minute.

[ BEFORE WE DO THAT -- clarification on the body's position in the tank? ]

[umbralant]

[The body is more or less in positioned in the middle of the tank, basically with her face in the gravel at the bottom. Also I forgot to mention it before but it should've been obvious so I'm mentioning it here; there's a blatantly a knife sticking out of her back.]

[baitless]

...ah. Apologies.

[he’s seen plenty of corpses, but... yeah, he’s not a coroner or a doctor or anything. He’ll step out of the way to let Rideaux do his work.]

[umbralant]

[This is definitely not what Seteth needed this morning. Or any morning, really. But thankfully, the tank cover is already open and the top of it isn't so high that he can't reach it; if anything, it only does up to his upper chest so he can stick his arm in, even if he wouldn't touch the bottom. Still, there's a visitor's bench right next to it, so maybe he can use that to get a better angle if he wants to pull her out?]

[baitless]

[...yeah, it’s not too hard for him to just reach in and pull her out so he can set her on that bench for the more qualified people to take a look at. It’s not like she’s heavy or anything...]

[apothecares]

[Alfyn will move to join the party that's near the body. He can be the medical stand in if needed or just someone to wander around the soupy mess of a room.]

[umbralant]

[Will Alfyn be looking around or is he going to just be focusing on the body retrieval party happening upthread?]

[apothecares]

[Since Seteth took her out of the tank already, maybe Alfyn should take the body touching job...?]

[youspinmeknightround]

[Suzaku wants to be more helpful this time... so what the hell are those chunks, let's just start there. He'll take one for the team.]

[umbralant]

[They're...! Fish bits. Or maybe fish salsa if you want to be crude about it, but either way it's obvious all these pieces came from whatever used to inhabit the tank and not, say, Lysithea.]

[inordertobelieve]

[ Mikami can, of course, not pass up a body. Not because he particularly likes bodies or because he has a very strong stomach for gross things... but because of JUSTICE. He's still on this trip, nobody has yet knocked him down.

But Lysithea is already surrounded by people and you know what... that's fine. He wasn't that eager for soaked deadness.

So instead he'll join Suzaku in peering at the... ]

.... ew.

[ Alright, deep breaths. GOOD THING HE PILFERED A FACE MASK THAT HE CAN NOW TRY AND USE AGAINST THE SMELL.

How big are our chunks and do they look like they've been cut or torn apart? ]

Let's try a fish experiment

[deadlygoals]

[ He's grabbing a bucket and bringing it to the aquarium. Scooping up some water and a couple of the living fish before he locates Shiro. ]

You said things burst after you used your powers, right? Mind showing me?

[galrarm]

On your bucket?

[ It doesn't occur to him until he looks in the bucket-- Oh.... fish. :( ]

... You're sure about this?

[deadlygoals]

On the water that's in the bucket.

[ He gives a nod. There's other fish in the tiny sea- or tank ]

It might not do anything, but that'll help eliminate it.

MUSEUM EXTERIOR

[umbralant]

[psychophant]

[Well, he was already headed this way after checking out the church aaaaaand apparently Lysithea's dead in the aquarium and he's not going anywhere near whatever mess is in there, so!! Let's check around out here - is there anything immediately noticeable that's off?]

[umbralant]

[ Yeah, Iago has made a smart call. Nothing is immediately off about the museum exterior, gonna take a tour of the perimeter? ]

Re: MUSEUM EXTERIOR

[wishuponazoi]

[No time to admire the art then-Sirius is going to look at the entrance first for any footprints or markings of entry.]

[umbralant]

[ No time at all.

Considering it's raining and the entrance is paved, there's no signs of footprints or any other markings. ]

OPERA HOUSE - BACKSTAGE

[umbralant]

[deadlygoals]

[ Since he's already here, Dazai is going to check it this out. So what do we have here? Anything jumping out on a first glance? ]

[umbralant]

[ Nothing is obviously off! Best to look around. ]
