DIE HARD [1st Investigation]
It's been almost a week since the X-Class Akudama found themselves in Dotonbori, and the days since Bunny and Shark's little announcement have gone on, seemingly falling on deaf ears. But now, as the sun begins to rise and turn the hanging smog red across the sky, it truly seems that blood is in the air. Not a soul is around on the streets... who will be the first to venture out?
no subject
Starting off: what's the positioning look like?]
no subject
She's kind of curled on the sidewalk, just a couple meters away from Marcille -- lying on a side. Absolutely no blood is found under her body.
Overall the positioning is a little less broken than Marcille's, but were she alive, she'd still feel the strain of trying to hold her limbs in such an awkward position]
no subject
But let's take a closer look at those injuries right now. He'll start with the one on the head-- if he touches it gently, will he be able to feel that the skull is broken underneath? And is there any visible bruising/pooling of blood in that area?]
no subject
That said, yes! Touching that part of the head does hint the skull has suffered severe damage -- it's not outright shattered, but it's broken enough for, well, for it to be noticeable. The extent of the injury cannot be examined given it's still all under the scalp, though.
There's blood on that area of the head. Doesn't have a specific shape, it's pretty much what you'd expect from this sort of injury. There's no blood on the sidewalk where her head was at, though]
no subject
How big is this head injury? What sort of weapon/object might we be looking at here in terms of the cause, in other words? And is that blood totally dried or still damp?]
no subject
...it's pretty hard to tell. It's a sizable injury, but the object/weapon it was made with is impossible to determine.
All Gai can tell is that it's rather large and with a flat surface, large enough to not have left any sort of shape nor indentations.
As for the blood, well, it has started to dry -- as expected from a corpse that has been left out there for a while. No anomalies to report on this topic!]
no subject
Let's move on to those hand marks next! He's a fairly decently-sized guy at close to 6 feet, are these hand marks going to be larger or smaller than his hands? And are there any nail marks too that would indicate that whoever did this had fairly long nails, or just the finger imprints?
Either way, he's going to take a photo of his own hand alongside the marks for a size reference.]

Next to the broken ribs! Is he correct in assuming that all of the fractures are on the front side, or are there any on the back?
He's also going to probe at them a little-- is the pattern of the fractures consistent with an impact (such as falling from the roof), or is it more isolated in specific spots the way it would be if caused by blows from an object?]
no subject
The spine has very serious injuries. Several large, dark bruises -- darker than the ones in front -- indicate this was the point of impact. In contrast, the rib fractures are pretty much at the point where the ribs join the spine and the connection between rib and sternum. Minor blood vessels burst, causing the haphazard bruises.
In other words: hitting the back so hard the weaker points of the ribcage suffered some damage. That's...a lot of strength!]

If not, moving on to that cut on her wrist. Now, Gai has seen both a whole lot of combat and quite a bit of human experimentation. Does this cut look like it was made with a knife or something finer, like a scalpel?]
no subject
Oh, it indeed was made with a rather thin blade, judging by the way the cut is so subtle and how clean it is. A scalpel would fit such a description, indeed. A kitchen knife or a dagger wouldn't.]
no subject
What about on her clothing? Any blood/damage/dirt to notice there? Or any defensive wounds to speak of?]
no subject
Nothing on her clothes, nor any defensive wounds. There's pretty much nothing else abnormal to report, except...
...well, it's pretty hard to see -- harder than the cut on the wrist. But something about Debbie's hair seems a bit off.
Like a bit of hair has been cut]

Anything else of note that he would find while handling the body or can he go ahead and call it a day?]
