Delion has gone along with Ambers to

her house, there only are two victims so

far and the kills were rather clean. All

they know is that someone or something

has chocked the two men to death, as

for who did it, it is almost impossible to

figure out since the killer is long gone

without a trace. On Ambers' house

however, where they will have a bit

of time to trace the steps and think of

possible killers, think of people who

have the capabilities or means to cause

such a silent kill. "Would you like some

black tea?" Chief Ambers offered,

sure Delion will be paid later on but it

doesn't mean that she can't offer warm

refreshments. "If it isn't troubling

He spoke, barely noticing himself that

he spoke actually since he is deep in

thinking of how and who could be doing

this. Without saying a word, Ambers

just gave a half smile and filled a cup

with a small portion of black tea first

and afterwards added boiling water

on it "It is a little bit harsh. I've ran

out of honey recently so I can't offer a

sweetener." "I never put sweeteners

on my tea but thanks. He expresses

surprisingly being kind worded. Perhaps

he doesn't know how to be a man of

attitude when his thoughts are full?

However when retracing the steps,

one thing they could reach at, is both

cases having no eye witnesses and the

victims not having any known enemies.

Which makes it difficult because it rules

out every possibility of a murderer in

between these people. So considering

these facts, even though they've spent

all day thinking, night reached and they

aren't even remotely close to finding

out who killed those innocent souls. But

Delion does plan to ask the neighbours

about some information tomorrow,

regarding the death and if someone

saw anything worth noting before the

tragedies. Before they are about to go to

sleep here, Delion took his time to ask a

question. "What do you plan to do with

the murderer?" "He will be killed of

course, murder here is an unforgivable

crime. If we let these deaths escape

unpunished, families can get in war and

I would be attacked eventually as well."

Chief Ambers for sure has a deep point

of view here, it is clear that she spent

at least a while thinking this through.

"How do you assume the murder is a

he?" Delion queries, feeling curious and

getting some suspicion that she actually

knows something "Men usually do the

killing right?" She decided to mention

a painful yet stereotypical facts. That

is true, but the scene at Daril's house

didn't look like a man's work. We have

to squeeze in as much information

as possible out of the neighbours

tomorrow." Delion specified word by

word, and dropped suspicion on Ambers

by a quarter. Only by a quarter though,

at such a case everyone is a suspect...

"My mother died there Chief Ambers."

A 27 year old girl pointed at a bed, she's

named Jenny and the woman that died

last night is her mother. Tedrima. Do

you know how and why it could have

happened, do you think it could be

due to misses Tedrima's age? She was

about... 71 I think?" Chief Ambers asks

calmly, one because she wants Jenny to

remain calm and two because calmness

equals to better information. "Yes, I think

that might be it. She has been sick for

about 3 weeks now... or was it 4?" She

started the sentence with a mild tone

and ended it murmuring with herself.

hand on her chin. "Have you heard any

weird sounds, signs of struggle?" Delion

immediately puzzles as he glanced upon

the corpse from a distance of a foot.

"No, I just woke up and found her dead

here. I yelled for her name about 7 times

but when she didn't answer I went in

her room and found her dead." Jenny

specified, while in the meantime Ambers

is getting suspicious by the passing

second because Tedrima's husband isn't

here. Delion glanced upon the corpse.

and slipped his hand under her neck

a little bit to check something out. The

same little hole is to be found here on

the bed near her neck, as if someone

forcefully pushed her neck downwards.

"Do you have someone to look over you.

a guardian?" Delion battered around

the bush so Jenny can be tricked into

telling information she might have hid if

he yelled at her. "Yes.... well at the same

time no. My mother and father got in an

argument over a week ago, he rushed

out of the house and my mother cried

for a day straight. Upon revealing this?

fact, both Ambers and Delion made

Tedrima's husband as a prime suspect.

"Do you know where we can find your

father?" Delion asked directly, knowing

that the main piece of information comes

out of him and that Jenny is practically

outsourced now, Calm and collective,

Jenny butchers. "I don't know but in

the past three arguments he mentioned

about being at some sort of hunter's spot,

some guy named Jingo?" Now Delion has

become the most suspicious about her

calmness, he will keep her in mind as a

suspect although Jenny sounds like she

has died emotionally a long time ago.

But first, he wants to ask for permission

on something. "Can I move the corpse

to analyse the bed?" The bed here can

show him a lot of information and if it is

anything like Staril's bed than they might

be getting somewhere here. Although

Delion would find it confusing here

considering that Tedrima is a lady, it

can rule sexual attacks out. "Of course,

but please be gentle." Jenny answers,

wanting to arrange a proper funeral for

her mother.
