She said that it went missing earlier-- well, she said that she misplaced it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had flat out gotten stolen and she just assumed she lost it.
[ ... ]
It's no wonder we couldn't find any other suspects, they did such a thorough job of pinning it on her.
Then again, it's not like we were particularly smart with those nine hours we had. [ two hours burned just watching medb pick up mineo and snap him over her thigh like a twig. ]
But at the same time, crimes aren't normally given a time limit of nine hours. So even with the loss, from an investigative standpoint, we did do a good job of following the clues. The problem is that we didn't have the time to realize what was beyond the obvious.
[ they didn't even corner beau until the last few hours, and it was the staff that came in at the last second that sealed the deal, when people were probably still hesitant to blame her before it. ]
Hopefully it'll never come up again. But that sounded way too optimistic even before I said it.

Take better notes of where people had visions or strange occurrances overnight, make sure to check them out sooner rather than later? Maybe make certain we're not just hiding out in our rooms so that we have as much information as possible?
The wounds didn't appear on the body until they investigated an area, right?
I wonder if it's just any area, or if they have to get a specific one correct? If it's the latter, that may be a problem if we don't go to the right one first.
... Maybe wounds show up once you investigate the room they happened in. Which is a weird condition, but something we might have to work with if this happens again.
If there are no wounds on the body, then it makes sense to go out and investigate straight away. The sooner we find the right room, the sooner we can look at the body.
Again, the... things people see and hear the day before and immediately after we find out about the death might come in helpful in narrowing that down.

It's not like we can just roll over and give up if we want to avoid things like this happening again.
No, I was commenting more how there's only so much we can do without certain information. And even if we have hints, we can't search multiple places at once. If we don't hit the right area immediately, it'll set us back.

You don't seem to be getting what I'm trying to say. Never mind.
Anyway, I doubt people are going to just roll over. So... we should be fine on that front.
no subject
[ hop to it. ]
... On either front. This is pretty likely to happen again.

As nice as it would be to believe that'll never happen again. [ the floodgates are, proverbially, thrown wide open. ]

Admittedly, I wouldn't be surprised if the robot goes after someone.

Yeah, I could see that happening. That's one really obvious example of the "the gates are open" mentality.
