Chapter 2: Abnormal Days
Attention everyone! A body has been found! A body! It's in the laboratory room! Hop to it! This is so exciting!
[There's an excited giggle before it cuts off.]

[runs into him on the upper floor]
Here you are..! Are you coming from downstairs?
[it sure looks like he is]
What have you been doing? Did you not hear what Yuri said through the speakers?

Prudence.
[grabs him by the arm without further ado and pulls him along into the laboratory]
[barely lets him take in the sight of the corpse there before continuing to explain]
Somebody hit her with this mop, see? On the back of her head. I think we all believe that that killed her, because she fell into the acid and did not get out again.

[stares into his eyes, completely horrified]
That-- that-- nobody would do something like that! It's too cruel!

Someone crazy enough would. At least somebody desperate enough to go home. [Frowns]
The mop may have only knocked her unconscious, and the killer finished what they started by trying to throw her into the vat without getting too close to it themselves. [Looking around]

Er....
[he can't help but eavesdrop, but maybe it'd be for the good of everyone if he got involved here, too]

[shakes his head emphatically at Jonah, not noticing Nemo right away]
You-- you are making it worse that it already is! Why..! The, the acid hurts a lot..!

The killer maybe ran away immediately after they hit her on the head so that nobody would come in and see them, that's why they left her...
[turns to look at Nemo too]

Ah, er... I suppose that makes sense, but if the mop was the murder weapon, why even bother with the acid...
[actually understood him - he's used to listening carefully to things like the wind in the leaves, the birds' voices and the grumbling of an approaching storm]
I-- I think it was just an accident that she fell into it. Maybe she was looking at it, and the killer came from behind and hit her...
But it is more important to find out who did it! Um, Nemo, did you arrive here first? Or who else was here when you came?

[THEN STOP STARING AT HIM JONAH, GOSH]
Ah, er... I was the first to get here. And it was only the body and me...

[nods at Nemo]
You did not kill her, right?
[just to make that official]
[sorry, Jonah, you are being completely ignored]
