Case #6: Scary Monsters, Super Creeps

We've got a problem.

The seemingly innocent case of those 'gift' jackets that I was in the process of closing, appears to something deserving further investigation. Forensics has discovered that the material is in fact of human origin.

Who do we have in the City capable of doing something so monstrous?

They're WHAT?! You sure, Boss? Cos Penny's...I mean, I dunno what t'say to 'er if--cos she's one o' them vegetarian sorts so if she's been wearin' humans... What do I do? Do I tell 'er or not?

[feellikejumping]

Quite sure.

And let's keep this to ourselves for now, Chris. I think it best not to alarm the public at this point. We need to find the person responsible first, it might hamper our investigation if we release such information before securing an arrest.

[justcautious]

Right...No alarmin' the public... Only I can't let her wear it!

[feellikejumping]

Wait, she still has it?

[justcautious]

I...think so. Din't take Tsurugi too seriously. 'e was always strange. But I don't really properly see Penny often enough to know if she still 'as it. I don't see 'er when she'd be wearin' it if she did have it. Hey! D'you reckon if she does, I could just 'ave her give it over to us. Y'know, to "aid the investigation", like. An' then I can jus' not ever tell 'er what it was.

[feellikejumping]

Yes, please see to that immediately, Chris. We need to gather up every last one of these coats before anyone realizes.

[justcautious]

Wilco. We 'ave a file section on creepy sorts who might've done this, Boss, so you know. Mainly vampires.

.... who's top of the list?

Dunno if anyone is...Road's creepiest, I reckon. Cos she's a little girl, only proper evil, an' magic. She's not a vampire, though. There's th--um. ... There's two vampires we arrested, I s'pose?

I want you to compile a list. Names, addresses... details about each possible suspect and what we might be facing.

[justcautious]

Ah-- ... Wilco, boss. Dunno if....we know addresses for all of 'em. That okay, or, um....there sommat I should do about that? [Please don't let it be hunt them down, please don't let it be hunt them down, please don't--]

[feellikejumping]

In that case, we'll need to locate them. Ask around at some of the locale establishments, see if we can get some leads as to where to find them.

[In other words, hunt them down.]

[justcautious]

Right.....yeah. ... ... You think maybe I should put SWAT onto that? Pretty shifty lot, vampires an'...evil sorts. Wouldn't want them escapin' before we find out where they live, yeah?

Everything previous = police filter

[feellikejumping]

Chris, they haven't been accused of anything yet. We just want to question them.

Everything previous = police filter

[justcautious]

They have been! You wanted me to look up suspicious sorts, yeah? So these are folk we're accusing!

Everything previous = police filter

[feellikejumping]

I mean, 'as there been enough proof to convict them in court?
