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?

EVIDENCE

[akudamods]

[The drones Satsuki found are of course still at the entrance, but a short ways away from them, there's something small that you may not notice if your attention was focused on the 'quadruple murder.' That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

It's a scalpel. Though it's actually... kinda broken, it's still clearly recognizable as one.]

[Damian will kneel down, picking it up with two fingers.

Hmm. He'll swap out his lenses and scan this broken scalpel for any traces of blood or other DNA evidence.]

[akudamods]

[Look at you with your fancy toys. The scalpel is nice and clean on the surface, but the scan will indeed detect traces of blood.

While you're looking at it, you will notice a couple other strange things. One, the tip of the scalpel is broken off and is not in the area. Two, the blade itself is chipped to the point it will not be particularly useful for cutting.]

[thefifthchild]

[Do the traces of blood match the damage to the blade, indicating that it was broken and dulled while being used as a weapon?

Second question, are there any traces of soap like someone intentionally tried to clean it?]

[akudamods]

[The blood is pretty much on the entire thing, so there's no way of telling.

Fortunately for everyone's sanity, this was not a self-cleaning scalpel. Soap was indeed involved.]

[thefifthchild]

[At least the scalpel hasn't gained that power. But it does mean someone washed it and then left it out here intentionally...

Okay, he'll bag the evidence.]
