POKÉMON 2.B.A. MURDERER ~ A Poké-Murdergame

[madface7]

>check out Sue

"...What are you doing?"

"Checking you! For... evidence!" All Addie is doing is hugging Sue.

"...I think I should check you for evidence too, Ad." Sue hugs back.

[KungFuCutbug]

[Ringtoss silently squees at Addie and Sue. It seems even the psychotic, heartless Hoopa has a soft spot for cute couples being cute.]

[Huney]

"You all have my thanks for ruining the body too far for me to check it." Doober "Venomoth Eater" McDoober states, sarcastically.

"At the least, we know he was probably stabbed to death."

[madface7]

"I guess you could say he had an... icepick headache!"

"Now is not the time for jokes, Addie."

"...sorry."

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

> Look for any bladed weapons

[KungFuCutbug]

>Look for any bladed weapons

[3]

[Doesn't look like anyone has any bladed weapons on them... Addie's “icepick headache” comment might mean something.]

[Kennifer]

>Try to at least see what size foot made the three-toed footprints, can she tell how big the Pokemon might be?

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

> search South

[KungFuCutbug]

>Try to at least see what size foot made the three-toed footprints

[6]

[Aaand whoops. You just erased the three-toed footprints by the hot spring.]

>search South

[5]

[...There's a small puddle of cold, bloody water in the middle of the ground. Looks like you've found your icicle.]

[Kafkaesque]

"EGADS!"

At long last, I make my long awaited re-entrance!

"Countless apologies for my lateness, friends! Now, what is the current situation?"

[KungFuCutbug]

“Th’ friggin’ Chimchar's dead,” [Ringtoss responds to Isbrand snarkily.] “Whaddaya think'a that, huh?”

[Kennifer]

Mawile joins the others again, grumbling about being clumsy or something probably because wtf.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

"I found this puddle in the South. Guess that's where the icicle was."

[Guma]

Now what could have caused a stab wound?

>return to center and break into Ringtoss's weapon stash

[artsyGeek]

"...what happened over here?"

> Investigate what's going on

[Huney]

"Ringtoss, please."

[Kafkaesque]

"E-EGADS! The Chimchar? But he was but a mere child! What heinous monster would prioritise slaying a child?"

[KungFuCutbug]

>break into Ringtoss's weapon stash

“WHOAWHOAWHOAWHOA WHOA WHOA THERE, PAL! Haven't ‘cha ever heard'a ‘off-limits’?! Besides, if they'd a’ used somethin’ I gave ‘em, it'd still be lyin’ around somewhere, don'tcha think?”

[Zanreo]

"Right... Maybe they saw him as an easy target..."

[Guma]

Frankly, I don't see why you would need so many weapons. Neither you nor we have any use for them, and you know that.

>look for a buried weapon in the central area (which I already know will fail)

[KungFuCutbug]

“S'called bein’ prepared, ya wingnut.”

>look for a buried weapon in the central area

[Nothing.]

[Kennifer]

"...did the killer use that missing icicle for the stabbing?"

Mawile wasn't sure of this, since, y'know, Squirt had been a fire type and you'd think there would be melting happening before killing, but she'd at least throw out the possibility.

[Guma]

>try again in the eastern area

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

"That's what I was thinkin' too."

[KungFuCutbug]

>try again in the eastern area

[Nothing here, either—not even in the bloody, gory, rocky hot spring.]
