Week 2: Investigation

The Sergeant's deadline is tonight. An offer to get in contact with people you know, yet also a threat. Given how fed up he was, it's unlikely he's joking about the kind of cruelty he's willing to go through for the sake of getting what he wants.

That's why it may not be so surprising that, early in Friday morning, there's this air of tension, despite the bright sun in the sky. It doesn't help that a firetruck and a couple patrolcars race through the streets, passing in front of the motel and going west. The reason why is clear after a single glance:

There's a thick column of black smoke emanating from somewhere inside the Junkyard.

[ It seems you've looked over everything on top of the pile. ]

[icariot]

[On to lower down, then! Is there anything around the pile he could see?]

[cartesio]

[ Absolutely! What's most noticeable is a pool of drying blood, near the bottom of the pile. ]

[icariot]

[Is it isolated? Or does it lead towards the car (and Moloch)?]

[cartesio]

[ It looks isolated. If you take more of a look, you'll also notice a dark liquid not too far from the puddle--smells like motor oil. ]

[icariot]

[So either moloch was stabbed and moved into the car, or the killer could be injured.

Does the motor oil puddle lead anywhere?]

[cartesio]

[ It does not. There is something leading toward the car, though!

A smudge of blood. Looks to be a partial footprint. ]

[icariot]

[Can he tell an estimated size from the partial?]

[cartesio]

[ Unfortunately, no. There's no way to tell any identifying information. ]
