DIE HARD [1st Investigation]

[akudamods]

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?

Comments

[akudamods]

[Definitely too long, and not really a cipher either. If there was any kind of reason to a code like this, the best guess would probably be a jamming signal.]

[depleting]

[ Yeah... If it's that long and random, that's probably it...

Assuming there's nothing left to find with the drones, Satsuki will straighten up and give another sweep of the lobby. Time to notice that suspiciously empty space where a bench used to be? ]

[akudamods]

[Now it's just a bench that you used to know....

....But then again, there's still that bathroom stink?]

[depleting]

[ There sure is!

Actually, though, just one quick question about the lobby before Satsuki heads upstairs. Is there any signs of a crash in the lobby itself, or something that looks like it could have scraped those drones on impact?

If not, she'll move on to the bathroom. ]

[akudamods]

[There's no visible damage on anything else in the lobby, fortunately.

First things first, once Satsuki reaches the bathroom, it will be evident the smell of the blood is coming from a trash can.]

[depleting]

[ Oh boy!! What bloody object will she find in the trash? ]

EVIDENCE

[akudamods]

[It's a rag, close to the sink - looks like it was used to wipe a hefty amount of blood.]

[depleting]

[ Cool and fun! Being near the sink, is there any evidence of blood left behind there? Any little streaks that got missed, etc? ]

[akudamods]

[It looks pretty clean, honestly! But you know what else is strange?

That bench is in here now! Pretty sus, considering this is the fourth floor.]

[depleting]

[ Is

Is it just sitting against the wall like this is normal, or is it flipped on its face or something. ]

[akudamods]

[The bench is casually here, like this is its new home now. It could almost fit in.]

[depleting]

[ squ...ints...

Despite it standing there all casual, she's going to check it for both blood and dents. ]

EVIDENCE

[akudamods]

[The bench is in-tact. However, when Satsuki leans down to check, she will see that the floor tile underneath the bench has been cracked.]

[depleting]

[ What kind of crack is it? Like, a chip on a corner or something that runs through the center? ]

[akudamods]

[The cracks start from the middle and extend outward in a few different directions, giving them a 'spiderweb' appearance.]

[depleting]

[ Good to know! Satsuki is going to take some photos to document the rag, the bench, and the cracked tile; is there anything else she might notice in the process, or is she done in here? ]

[akudamods]

[That's all, folks!]
