The case file for the week was slim—the recent incursion of the Galarian hounds lessening his side work. Downstairs, his grandson slept, dreaming of whatever nonsense currently occupied him. Even the typically obsessive Houndstone enjoyed a moment of respite. His hellish eyes, hidden behind corpse hair, were currently empty sockets.

Nikita sat behind his desk, three shots into a bottle of hard liquor. A board sat before him, full of the stereotypical red rings of fate. The sun’s cresting of the horizon came right on the heels of his cell’s first vibration. “BRZZZZZT”. Before he could answer, a few trilling notes from a classical song—referred to as Poisoned Chalice--squeaked out.

Like a starving wolf, Nikita pounced upon the phone. Only a single word emerged—not enough to show a slur. “Sokolov.” With the details given, he nodded to his invisible conversation partner. “I will be there shortly.” With a quick wash of his face and a pause to brush his teeth, the detective pauses to check in on Samuel. But, as if scared he was smoke, he does not kiss him good night. Not seeing much danger in this case, he makes no move to awaken his shadow—Detective Winters II.

“Please take care of Samuel, Barbara.” He threw on his windbreaker, throwing a glance at the Alakazam now hovering beside the door. With a final nod, he vanished into the pre-dawn in the direction of Mount Pyre. Before he left his street, the presence of a familiar ghoul appeared at his side. “I tried to let you sleep.” In response, the ghoulish hound snorted. It did not need such mortal things.

Nikita frowned down at the hole in front of him. It was not unusual to see bodies inside graves. In fact, that was the most logical place for them to be. But this case proved rules always had exceptions. The man inside—his skull smashed beyond recognition—stretched over a Pokemon’s casket. Apparently, the occupant was named Fluffy. No one had seen the person enter or exit. And there was no apparent connection between this man and the deceased monster beneath him.

Though the crime scene itself was clear, the signs of the murder were still apparent. If you had a hawk's eyes, at least.

With a flick of a lighter, Nikita set out to enjoy a cigarette. His keen blue eyes swirled in thought.

Elementary, My Dear.

[attr="class","da-cerbmidtop"]

[attr="class","da-cerbpost"]

[break][break]All it took was a slight tilt of the head to see that he'd a guest join him. One of the uniformed officers had slipped by with the silence of a cat to crouch down and gaze at the murder scene. Unlike most rookies her age, she seemed largely unaffected by the scene. As if she'd seen many like them or worse long before getting involved. Her head tilted softly, back and forth as she examined what was in front of her.

[break][break]"Before you came, Mr. Sokolov, I took pictures of the footwear impressions leading to and around the area.", she gently adjusted her cap and tucked her platinum blond locks behind a single ear. She was quite for a few moments later, as if an after thought hit her.

[break][break]"Time of death was around 5:00 AM...We have a match that makes it look like he climbed over a fence and beelined to get here. Also...I don't know how useful it'll be to you, Detective, but..."

[break][break]The officer pointed at the deceased's back. Particularly where shirt sloppily spilled over belt and over their back pockets. She was pointing at the shape of what was probably a wallet. Whether or not the detective wanted it, she'd already be moving with gloves and instruments to help her disturb the body as little as possible. Though she kept looking at the fragments of skull and brain matter that stained the coffin and the sides of the hole nearest to where the victim fell. She had her thoughts, but she didn't bother saying them. She had her own faith that she'd probably said too much already and that Detective Sokolov was fairly close to being annoyed by the disruption.

[break][break]Still...Shion felt like this was a little odd. Sure it was a murder, but the amount of damage to the skull was so significant. There were two ways she saw this working out : The man was lead here, the hole was there for convenience, and the attacker pushed him and used leverage to enable to blows that ultimately killed this man...or it was much more gruesome and violent than that, thanks to a Pokémon. Or some combination of the two...

[break][break]Either way she wanted to hear what the detective thought. It was her first time seeing such an experienced one work and she wanted to see what she could learn.

[break][break]Though...one word slipped from her lips in thought," A hypnosis?"

This was really an excuse for her to listen in on his thoughts if he felt the need to speak them.[break]
She offered him the knowledge of the foot imprints leading him to the place and pointed out the person's wallet.[break]

The Houndstone turned briefly as the girl approached. The gleam in its crimson eyes brightened for a moment—like a lighthouse beam upon contact with an approaching ship. Quickly determining the girl was no threat, the ghost hound would slowly circle the grave before them. Soon enough, his nose would settle on an ectoplasmic trail. This he would follow between the nearest rows of stone.

For some time, it seemed as if Nikita did not notice Shion’s presence. This perception would be quickly proven false. The detective merely wished to enjoy his nicotine infusion in peace. Once he held naught but filter, he would turn to face the junior investigator. Immediately, a salt-and-pepper brow would raise. “Officer Uehara, correct?” His voice was as dry as the bones beneath the most faded tombstones. “I was not aware our appointment had moved.” He sniffed. “Nor that the force had taken to holding meetings in cemeteries.”

Exasperation colored his words. Anyone who knew him was aware of his desire for silence. Only a few exceptions had ever made it into his life. His hound was foremost among them. His dearly departed wife—his Watson--was the other. Still, he did not mind playing mentor on occasion. And, fortunately, this girl did not try and brute force her way into the investigation.

The cigarette was snuffed out between two fingers. If he felt the burn, he made little outward sign of it. “I am certain your colleagues made a mess of things long before your arrival.” Many police officers reminded him of Bouffalant—one-minded, charging creatures who only left ruts in their wake. “Still, there may be something of use.” Perhaps a sign of someone hefting a large burden. A bit of blood or gore is out of place.

The time of death was noted with a single nod. The hour lie somewhere between the witching hour and the early riser. A carefully orchestrated attempt to go undetected? It seemed like a strange choice. Then, she pointed out the wallet. “Hm?” Strange.

His pale, gaunt hands vanished beneath kid leather gloves. “Leave it.” He instructed the younger officer. “There is no reason to get your hands dirty.” His own were already stained beyond salvation. With a deft movement, he pulled out the little leather folio. He flipped through it with pursed lips. There was a license, three credit cards, and the corner of a family photograph. It reminded him of a corpse picked free by a Mandibuzz’s beak.

“I believe we have a red herring.” Wear indicated their victim was right-handed. His height seemed off. The item had been hastily stowed in an inconvenient place. Then, of course, there was the matter of the destroyed skull. A crime whose messiness went far beyond simple rage. It was orchestrated in its brutality. In some ways, it was almost admirable.

A bark from nearby drew blue eyes upward. “It appears Winters has uncovered witnesses.” Before them—now visible to the naked eye—a Mismagius and Haunter now hung. “Would you be so kind as to examine them?” He wanted to examine the skull fragment more closely. The gentleman in him thought that task best left to a more grizzled, adjusted investigator.

It’d also stop her from hovering.

A Not So Closed Room.

[break]
[attr="class","da-cerbmidtop"]

[break][break]"Yes, Sir." Uehara confirmed for the detective.

[break][break]" It's a coincidence, really...I was dispatched to shadow one of my seniors and assist in securing the area. I'd never worked a scene like this before so... "

[break][break]She imagined the scenario was as painfully obvious. Regardless of the intention, ultimately she was called here to 'build experience'. Although she had the tools necessary to handle evidence and manage the scene as directed, her clean appearance suggested that originally she was told to standby and just observe. Intuitively one could assume the only reason she approached is because she recognized the Detective.

[break][break]'I aspire to become a detective.', her post on AmiGo said. Although Shion seemed quite demure, it was clear she was intensely earnest in her own way. Shion Uehara would not simply stand idle and risk missing a shred of what she viewed as a true educational experience. Even if it was at the risk of being a little inconvenient. Still---she did have the presence of mind not to disturb the scene without permission or at minimum ensuring the detective knew exactly what she was intending to do before she'd attempt it.

[break][break]After all...he was right. She'd watched her seniors and assigned mentors prior to Sokolov's appearance do exactly as he described while trying to 'secure the area'. The value of their orders and foresight had plummeted for her and that was what ultimately caused her to set aside whatever 'conventional wisdom' they had in having her idly stand next to the car looking pretty.

[break][break]She obediently pulled back her hand in favor of letting the detective handle the wallet. Her position shifted back to her crouched sitting pose and she watched him examine the evidence. Although she questioned his reasoning in regard to her dirtying her hands, it was of so little importance to her that she let it fall to the wayside. She'd remember the kindness later when she had time to process it's meaning, to be sure...but he'd made an interesting point in the present : that wallet wasn't the victim's.

[break][break]At least...that's what Sokolov managed to inspire to Shion's intuition.

[break][break]It was easy to imagine a lone man wandering hypnotized through a cemetery at the witching hour. One might quickly jump to conclusions that this was the act of a ghost or psychic pokemon with this idea. That'd explain the scene itself rather neatly...but if the wallet was a red herring, wouldn't that rather roughly point out a less than ideal proposition?

[break][break]Uehara also lifted her head at the sound of 'Winters' bark. When she saw the Haunter and Mismagius she'd noticed something interesting almost immediately. The Mismagius was hidden inside of the decaying trunk of a newly dying tree nearby. She'd gotten the sense that both she and the Haunter had been watching the entire time and the Haunter had finally come to investigate too. Her trivial knowledge about Pokémon that had a tendency to haunt the area sparked a thought that built on top of her intuitive observation...

[break][break]She turned her head and nodded to Detective Sokolov. She imagined he noticed she lacked any real emotional response to noticing the pair of ghost pokemon. Due to her lack of any noticeable fear she would approach the pair and crouch down again to make herself look small. No desire to cause any harm to the pair...she'd speak calmly both to the Detective and to the Haunter present...

[break][break]"Looking for something to eat?" Shion questioned curiously, "Mt. Pyre is pretty popular for thrill seekers isn't it? It'll be even more so now that a murder has happened here."

[break][break]"But there's an issue...If people suspect the victim was hypnotized and brought to his death by a ghost Pokémon, the actual murderer will get away and with our misinformation we might disrupt the ecosystem here and make Mt. Pyre more dangerous."

[break][break]There would be a quiet moment between her and the Haunter. She imagined he could understand her...and maybe she could understand it. That was when the Mismagius approached also. The pair looked at each other, then at the officer cadet. Her right sleeve would be pulled and she'd be guided toward a gate that was carelessly left partially open. It was an old one, accessible only through a dilapidated and difficult to follow pathway not too far from the disturbed grave of the murder scene. Shion's eyes slowly narrowed and she knelt down to examine whether or not she could also find foot prints amongst the brush.

[break][break]"Detective..." Shion called out to briefly gain his attention," I don't mean to interrupt you out of turn, but..."

[break][break][break]

While others would insist on more familiar terms, Nikita did not. It did children well to show deference to their elders—even if those elders were fools or half-dead wraiths.

The man’s piercing eyes stared the young woman down for a moment. But he saw no signs of dishonesty. “It is interesting how much statistical improbabilities prove themselves the opposite.” After all, once something occurred, it turned into a certainty. But something in her words made her pause. “And then they just left you here? How strange.” Though droll, his tone held something that might have been a specter of teasing. It did not take his mind to realize Miss Uehara was likely working off the books.

Witnesses were always a lovely way to lose tagalongs. It also gave him an excuse to not deal with the bereaved or traumatized. The work Robin had done to smooth out his edges had been worn away long ago.

“Let us investigate the scene.” As Shion interrogated the specters, Detective Winters put his bony muzzle to good use. Floating an inch above the ground, he tried to follow the scent of the deceased and the one who had discarded the middle-aged corpse. Unfortunately, many people cared about their Pokemon. Their grief and presence swirled the area into a maelstrom—one even Winters struggled to untangle. He did, however, turn up a broken Smart Watch a row or two back. From that vantage point, the dog saw the ajar gate—something his trainer had spotted long ago.

With a frown, he placed it into a little plastic bag at his waist. It could have data useful to the investigation—if it was connected. It could be another red herring in this case.

When the cadet spoke, Nikita’s eyes raised to her. With a poorly smothered grunt of pain, he forced his knees to straighten from his squat. “If it continues the game, it is not out of turn. As long as you interrupt politely.” Dusting off his legs, the pair approached the gate. Though whoever approached tried to hide his or her track, he could spot signs of disturbance.

“Let us think while we walk, Miss Uehara.” The Mismagius disappeared as they approached the gate. He certainly had his theories, but it was better to teach someone to fish than to enable laziness. “First, what would necessitate such an obliteration of the head?” A simple question with only a handful of answers. “Second, what does the choice of entry point tell you?”

The gate swung open with a gritty squeal. Nikita gestured her through. “Please, ladies first.”
