Third Investigation [Day 12]

[calloperators]

[After the very first investigation, it's almost surreal to not wake up to an explosion, especially when you consider the idea that someone's dead.

Still, you remember the phone call, and between the past two murders there is a very likely chance of death happening once more.

It's morning now, and sure everything seems normal in the motel, but when you start to venture outside, well...

Why don't you investigate?]

[Hmm, what is it? Is there something off about the red the footprints are made in or is it something else?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[There's something in the nearby alleyway between the arcade and bowling alley.]

[advancements]

[Oh, what is it? Is it a murder weapon??]

[hotlinenpcs]

[Do you call an empty ketchup bottle as a possible murder weapon? Because either way it's an empty ketchup bottle that's been haphazardly thrown into the alley!]

[advancements]

[Well, probably not... It doesn't look like it's broken or anything, right?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[Nope!]

[advancements]

[Okay cool, he'll just take this with him. Not as great as a crowbar, but it's probably important.

Okay, back to the pillow - just to double check, the red here is probably that ketchup, correct? What's going on with the clothes here, is there anything noteworthy about them? Besides the red, obviously.]

[hotlinenpcs]

[It definitely looks like just ketchup!

They seem like the kind of clothes that you'd pick up from the clothing store. If it wasn't covered in what's probably ketchup, they'd look brand new.]

[advancements]

[Excellent, that's what he was assuming. Finally, the pillow itself! Does it look like it could have come from the motel rooms, or is it different?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[It looks just like the pillows you find on your motel beds!]

[advancements]

[That's what he thought. Anything else to note about the pillow, the ketchup, or the surrounding area?]

[hotlinenpcs]

[Nope!]
