  • 9
9 Conceptualization There's something disdainful in the way the curves and lines of the bodies were drawn.

43 Kim Kitsuragi "There's the missing tin soldier," the lieutenant looks at the mugs next to each other. "Whoever lives here might have used the Whirling's container to dump his trash..."
  • 44
44 Kim Kitsuragi "And now they've drawn the ire of the Union. The plot thickens, as they say."
  • 55
45 Logic The owner of this collection could be dumping his trash in the Whirling's container.

  • 49
48 Kim Kitsuragi "Who knows?" The lieutenant opens his notebook. "I'm not expecting too much from this *clothes in the trash* lead either way. It might turn out to be some random local matter. But still -- a nice coincidence."

54 Logic You could ask Evrart who this person is? Once you're done here...
  • 53
55 Logic An interesting little clue. Let's see where this goes. Clues have a way of magically connecting to other clues -- down the road.
  • 57
56 Rhetoric And so *fun*.
