... Uuu... [ Chihiro's shoulders twitch with each sob he lets out. Then, out of nowhere, he turns to Izumo and kind of leans his head onto her shoulder. HE REALLY NEEDS A HUG RIGHT NOW... who cares if it's a girl hugging him... ]

[marumayu]

Ah-- [ Wow, she doesn't know what to do in this sort of situation! Awkwardly puts her arms around Chihiro, I guess... ]

Mm, we'll get this sorted out, okay? But you need to help me. Do you have a clue under your chair, too?

[superhacker]

C... Clue? [ Under his chair? He glances over... oh, here it is. He picks it up. ] Wh-why is this here..?

[maromayu]

Never mind that. What'd you get? [ She shows Chihiro her list of clues.

1. You'll find a hint in your clothing.

2. The maid and Dr. Black may have been having an affair, but it wasn't the maid.

3. You must be at least 5' to ride this attraction. ]

[superhacker]

...

[ You know what, he's just going to hand his own clues over to her so she can read.

1. The cause of this mayhem was definitely at the table, but he or she wasn't on the same side as the victim.

2. The weapon does not shine.

3. Leon is the first victim. ]

[maromayu]

[ Oh man, she should have paid more attention to the people seated around Leon. "...but it wasn't the maid." She can be sure it wasn't Chihiro. "The weapon does not shine." It might not be a knife, but one can't be too sure about that.

More importantly-- ]

There will be more than one dead body tonight... [ she doesn't say this too loudly - don't want to panic everyone else ]

I'll need to start quick. [ before Chihiro cries again ]

[superhacker]

[ It wasn't the maid. Definitely. And as Chihiro reads he clues better, he notes the "affair" part and appears utterly confused for what seems like a full minute. Why would someone write something like this?

He can barely hear what Izumo said, but that's enough to get him to panic. ]

The... the killer might... do it again? [ SHAKING AND CRYING AGAIN he just can't catch a break, can he... ]

[maromayu]

N-not if we stop him! [ She holds his shoulders in an attempt to calm him down. Please don't cry oh god. ]

[superhacker]

[ There's never something more true as TOO LATE when the tears are flowing from his eyes like a fountain. Gross crying... ]

H, How... do we...

[marumayu]

We follow the clues.

[ The clues on her paper already gives her a hint. It must be someone with a costume and someone tall! ]

Stay here and guard the gorilla. It's a pain, but I'll look for the killer!

[superhacker]

... O-okay.

[ It's not like he can... do anything in this situation. He feels useless, but he could at least look for hints around Leon's body... there must be something. He can't stay like this forever. ]
