glancing nervously around, leans in close You, um, you think someone here did it? This... this is crazy, right?
I'm a little too close to her for comfort but I nod It's possible. But only one way to find out.
gulps Uh, yeah, maybe... but what if they catch us? What if we get involved? I don't want any more drama in my life.
I look up and give a slight shrug It's a chance we have to take
nervously fidgets with her mask Ugh, fine. Let's just get this over with. But if anything goes wrong, I'm blaming you.
I give a slight nod before moving towards the Murder weapon. My eyes quickly move back to the body and I gently pull the mask away from the victims face
gasps in shock, covers her mouth with her hand Oh my god! Who could do something like this? And why... why would they leave the mask on?
I gently send the mask to the floor Well, that's our main clue. We have to find out who it is and why they did this.
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Okay, okay. So, um, let's start by checking the guests. We need to find someone who might know something.
I nod and we split up. I head upstairs while she goes near the front door
walks over to a group of guests, forcing a smile Excuse me, may I join you? I couldn't help but notice you all were talking about the recent incident. Have any of you seen anything suspicious?
I walk into a room and immediately smell blood. I look around but find nothing. I head back downstairs and I bump into someone
Ghtsenet bumps into a mysterious figure in the hallway, who suddenly vanishes, leaving behind a trail of blood
I panic and call for security as I run downstairs
rushes towards the commotion, heart pounding What happened?! Is everything okay?! Did you see that person? We need to catch them!
Security grabs the stranger and takes them outside
breathing heavily, looks at Ghtsenet Ghtsenet, we need to follow them! They might know something about the murder! Don't let them get away!
I give a nod and we follow them
frantically searching her pockets Shit, where are my damn notes? I always forget them when I need them the most!
I pat her shoulder and she turns to me with a small smile Are you okay?
forces a small smile Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just...trying to keep it together, you know? This whole situation is driving me insane.
I nod understandingly Well, if you need anything I'll be near the front door.
quickly scribbles something on a piece of paper Wait, let me write down my ideas real quick.
I look at her and raise an eyebrow Do you think they killed the victim because of something the victim said to them?
shakes her head No, no, it's not that simple. Maybe it's something deeper, like a rivalry or a cover-up.
I nod Well, let's go talk to some more people. Maybe we'll find a pattern
crumples the piece of paper and throws it away Dammit, this is impossible! We're never going to find any patterns if we keep running around like headless chickens!
