*enters crime scene from nearby elementary school with ak-47 in one hand and tec-9 in other*

*A man in a black robe with spiky red hair passes by. His arms are behind his head and he's whistling until he notices the scene of the crime.* Sirens? Did something happen? *Axel walks up to the detective and taps her shoulder.* Excuse me, miss detective, did something happen here?

I think someone should apprehend the homicidal Pikachu before we end up with an entire massacre on our hands... *Turns around to look at Axel* Oh, greetings, spiky haired one. Indeed... Apparently, the police are so baffled with this murder that they called in additional help... People usually try to kill eachother on the Nexus, sure, but this was... Odd. Quite the butchering actually. I'm almost impressed.

*walks to the red tape and examines the crime scene*

*Axel looks over to the crime scene and tries to observe the corpse without disrupting the scene.* This sure is one way to kill someone, not a pleasant one though. Kind of makes you wonder if the murderer hated this person's guts or just did it for fun.

*pulls camera from victim's neck and browses through the photos* ...

*Naoto arrives at the scene and shows his badge to the officers* Detective Naoto Shirogane. *He approches Sayaka* Adachi, what have you found?

OOC: Scratch my previous post off I didn't read the original post correctly :(

OOC: Like ignore it or something?

(You're fine.)

*Axel and the armed Pika finds an unfamiliar females body gruesomely torn inside out, very methodically so. The torso was ripped open, exposing the anatomy of the body with the heart left in tact. The arms, legs, and even both eyes were stabbed repeatedly, almost in a pattern like fashion. The Pika found nothing of note about the pictures on the victim, they were just of the victim smiling alongside various people her age* OOC: I gave the victim a camera too anyway, so no worries *Sayaka, meanwhile, nodded to Naoto who approached* Well, Naoto Shirogane on the Nexus. How... Ironic. *She smiled sadly for a moment before turning back to him* Yes... The victims condition is as follows... *She shows Naoto a written report of the above, with pictures.* I'd almost think it was a ritual killing. The murder weapon was a knife, which was left by the body. Unfortunately, forensics already took it.

Yeah this murder is lookin' pretty shady if you ask me. Most likely a bunch of satanists or some weird cultist group sacrificing random people on the street for either blessings from their god or some weird crap. *puts weapons into his seemingly endless video game inventory*

Hmm. I'd have to agree on that one, Adachi-san. Do we have any leads?

The murder looks methodical, so I'd assume it was some sot of cult killing. Have there been any similar cases?

*sort

I just saw a random group of cloaked wearing people as I was heading to the elementary school to shoot i- I meant give them educational activities. *breaks a sweat*

*Axel stares at the untouched heart of the victim.* A heart, huh? Strange thing to leave behind.

Adachi-san?

We should spread out and look for clues. (shitty tv show reference)

(Lmao.)

Well, we do have a lot of gods here... Though not many sacrifices. I imagine they have spaces between dimensions for that, or something. It's strange because this is the walkway where most students walk to Shujin. I've passed here several times since coming here on the way to the train station... The victim herself isn't affiliated to the school, or owns any children. She was a female in her mid 20s, unmarried, and an office worker. I would consider her friends and family, people that knew her, suspects first. Of course, this could be the beginning of a serial murder spree as well... Not enough evidence at this time... A heart standing out could be symbolic... If so, the killer has to be quite the sentimental one. Cloaked individuals in a residential area is strange though, perhaps we shou-- wait, did that creature talk? What did it say it was about to do?

Look...for clues. Adachi-san, I believe it is too early to tell motive or a suspect, but I think you're on the right track. Do we have an ID on the body?

Umm are you referring to me sir? I am not some mere creature. I am a trained elite assassin who is an ex-navy SEAL who assisted in killing Osama Bin Laden so you better shut your mouth before I use my martial arts skills which I learned by travelling the Himalayas with my mentor in the striking cold. If that wasn't directed towards me the stuff I said was irrelevant.

(Should've used the copypasta smh.)

(Am aware that I should've shitposted)

(Missed opportunity, man. I'm disappointed.)

Sir?... Don't worry though, I'm not gonna fuck with a badass with that kinda portfolio. Any clue is crucial. Forensics took everything though... I'd need your help to get there, Shirogane-kun. As for ID... The victim was Yuki Kamagawa, profile prior mentioned. It didn't seem like she was the type to get into shenanigans from the report...

We should take a look into the forensics facility, ask them for clues and get them. One way or another.

Nothing fits together, and we're missing part of the puzzle.We should wait until forensics can get some prints off the murder weapon. Until then, we should thouroghly search the crime scene. There could've been something we missed. Also, I'd like to have the victims full profile ASAP. I'd like to also know her last known whereabouts and activities.

Have you guys noticed anything strange about the shape the blood around the body is forming? It seems the murderer drew a weird looking star and there seems to be melted wax which could be scented candles.

(Now that the conversation is continuing, I would like to point out that you guys just accepted a school shooting, hit-man Pikachu into your investigation squad.

(Oh believe me, you are of use, but I'm putting your ass behind bars when we're done.)

(Also, that is a sentence I never thought I'd read.)

Yes... It may be best to wait for forensics for the time being. I wonder if they'll let a PI see the documents though... Until a full report on the victim is made I can only speculate. And well... Atleast they were nice enough to leave the candles scented. (Necessary accomplice. We all need a killer Pikachu in our lives)

There seems to be a security camera location on that lamppost over there. If we can locate the security systems around here, we might be able to see what happened during the murder.

*located

(Lmao. This is true.) Agreed. I will see if I can get you full clearance on this case. I'm in need of a partner, anyway... *He smiles toward Sayaka*

Hmmm... This is definitely strange... Doesn't involve me anyway. *Axel puts his hands behind his head and casually walks into a dark portal.* Ciao. *Axel waves at everyone before the portal closes.*

Well we just let that awfully suspicious nerd get away in his demonic hellway portal. Wonder if he is important to the plot in any way such as being the culprit the whole time.

Funny, you're probably the only person on the force who would ever give clearance to an Adachi. *Smiles sadly* A security camera in an alley? Who would even put one there and why? (I'm getting tired so, continuing this plot another time. Leaving some clues to discuss if you'd like to until whenever: The fingerprints on the knife have no matching adults ID. Victim was walking to the store when they were cornered by an individual into the alley and murdered. Murderer profile is estimated to be indiscriminate, sentimental and careless.)

*He walks into the scene from the shadows sighing* Geez a murder? Tch. This isn't my usual area or anything but I guess I could try and help. So we dealing with Cops? *He rubs his neck and glances around* I'm pretty good at pissing off most law enforcement but well I've made a friend or two along the way... Usually just the ones people think are crazy but well if believing in demons and magic is crazy what are we? *He shakes his head at the... Pikachu?* No crazy gun toting animal from a video game he's probably harmless, Unless the body is burned to hell and back I don't think it's Fire Boy.
