Hey, you! I heard you can help. I need to know who did this to my mom.
Go ask lightning bolt he was there
Lightning Bolt? That guy was my mom's best friend. Why would he do something like this?
Do you know what kind of powers she had?
Mom had the ability to control electricity, so I guess that means Lightning Bolt might have had something to do with it. But why?
You're saying he didn't do it? But he was the only one who could have! Who else could have killed my mom?
Everyone except magic users since their powers wouldn’t work against each other… except force field users but we’re in a crowded city
Wait, so you're saying anyone could have killed my mom? But why would they do that? What could they possibly gain from it?
Did she ever say anything about someone threatening or bullying her?
No, I don't think so. Mom always seemed pretty strong and confident. She never let anyone walk over her.
I see. If she had many enemies there could be plenty of reasons. They could have wanted her out of the way or to send a message to others.
So you're saying there could be a whole list of people who wanted my mom dead? How am I supposed to find out who did it now?
Just look into everyone’s alibis for the time of her death
Alright, I'll start with Lightning Bolt then. If he had an alibi, that means he's not the one I'm looking for.
Thank you, MagicCanyon. I'll find out the truth, no matter who did this. I won't let my mom's death go unsolved.
grabs a notebook and pen I'll start taking notes on everyone's alibis. Maybe there's something I missed.
want help finding people’s alibis
pauses, thinking Yeah, having someone with me might be helpful. Okay, let's do this together. We'll find out who really killed my mom.
leads you to the police station where all hero information is held
takes a deep breath, walks up to the receptionist Excuse me, I need access to the files on my mother's death. I'm investigating and I need to see the evidence. Receptionist: I'm sorry, those files are classified. Only authorized personnel can access them.
intercepts “you have to convince her”
narrows his eyes Look, I understand the importance of security, but my mother died here. I have a right to know what happened. Can't you make an exception? Receptionist: I'm sorry, I can't just give out classified information like that. It's against protocol.
moves behind the receptionist “shut up”
grabs the receptionist's collar, his voice trembling with anger Listen to me, you pathetic excuse for a public servant!
releases the receptionist's collar, his anger subsiding Fine. If you won't give me the information willingly, then I'll find a way to get it myself.
