transmittable: (Static)

Take Responsibility.

The past several weekends have been an unrelenting barrage of death in particularly disturbing manners; either the method or the number of people, sometimes both, have been particularly extreme. This week has seen fewer dead than the last; however, the way that that one kill seems to have happened...

It's not a particularly good tradeoff.

Either way, however, expectations still need to be met and investigations still need to be carried out; once the allotted time has passed, those doors in the center of the second corridor slide open once again, the sight managing to be at the same time familiar and unwelcoming. The fluorescent overhead lights of the operating theater beam down, flooding the room with bright and steady light as soon as the first person walks in; the seats surrounding the podium circle in the center of the room remain as empty as ever. Four more are gone, their absence notated by their portraits joining the others in watching the proceedings through greyed-out and unseeing eyes, Kogami, Madison, Sakura Matou, and Osomatsu's podiums all draped in black.

Once everyone has found their place in the circle, the public-address system comes to life once again in a light crackle of static; the Transmitter can be heard throughout the room shortly thereafter.

"Fraternal is dead. You guys...you know what to do. Put together what you've found and try to seek out the guilty. You know what'll happen if you can't.

Good luck."


Eleven Patients remain. We'll see how many leave at the end of the day.

[ Mikoto considers this for a bit. ]

Gives us a place to start, at least.

[ A heavy sigh. ]

That settles what the needle and thread were used for.
preciousking: staring (♔ what you have and what is yours?)

Still, weird they used a sewing needle. Or if they sewed his mouth shut while he was alive.

You'd think he'd try to bite someone if he were conscious.

He had to have been stunned or unconscious when they did the sewing... It would be very difficult to sew without his mouth being still, wouldn't it?
preciousking: hand pressed to forehead, exasperated (♚ 'cause i will never be forgotten)

Yeah.

Just in case, might check everyone's hands. The killer could've pierced themselves with the needle or been bitten.

That could be a good idea...

[Hmm]

Perhaps the killer knocked him out with the doll, and then once they restrained him to the cot, they started sewing his mouth shut while he was unconscious? [There's a pause, before Danny frowns] Though, judging by the condition the restraints were in, I don't think Osomatsu stayed unconscious for very long if that is the case.

[...oh.]

I...take it he struggled.
doctorize: (an attaché case in his hands)

[personal profile] doctorize 2017-07-22 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Judging by the wear to the restraints and the abrasions on his wrists, I'd say that it's a strong possibility.

[personal profile] cthulwho 2017-07-22 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[That is...lovely...]

It might be good to try to determine when he started struggling, since...so many things happened to him.

[Did this person have a grudge?]

Did it seem like he resisted the sewing at all?
doctorize: (judging which soul to confront)

[personal profile] doctorize 2017-07-22 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
That one was much harder to tell: though, even if he hadn't somehow, I can't imagine a scenario where one's mouth stitched shut wouldn't be an ugly mess to look at.
cthulwho: (☁ nnngh)

[personal profile] cthulwho 2017-07-22 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
That...is fair.
