We quickly run to Octo's house, we try opening the door, but it's locked.

"Okay then... any ideas of how we're gonna get instead the house?" I asked.

The 16 of us look around and nobody speaks up.

"No ideas? None a-"

Playful suddenly runs back and runs into the door, ramming it open.

"I guess that solves that problem then..."

I enter Octo's now open house, and then I see it...

Octo, blood under his body, a bullet hole in his head.

"Well... that answers that question..." I answer quietly.

It wasn't hard to tell he wasn't dead, if the blood didn't solve it for you, the bullet hole in his head did.

"Okay, can everyone who is not myself, Rex and Zed leave the house, so nobody can't accidentally or purposely mess with evidence?" I ask. I then add "Tell nobody else about this, alright?"

Slowly, the other 13 manage to look away from the dead Octo, nod and walk away, leaving just the 3 of us to check up the evidence.

A quick look at the walls and windows show that the shot was from inside the house, as you couldn't get a shot at Octo that way from the windows, and there are no bullet holes in the wall.

"Welp... I'm 100% sure the killer killed from inside his house." I said. "What evidence did you guys find?"

Zed looks up and says "It wasn't a suicide, from what it seems, the weapon was a revolver, due to the fact the bullet is a ".32 S&W Long" bullet."

"Just perfect" I think to myself, "Not only do we have a killer, we have a smart killer as well."

"Alright" I say, "Any other evidence?"

Rex looks at me and says "Doesn't seem like much of a struggle, due to the face that there are no other bullets and nothing ruined in the house... other then the floor, of course."

"Hey HAWAIIAN, why did you ask for us to not tell anyone else about this?" Zed asks.

I sigh, then calmly answer "The last thing we need is the rest of the town to panic about a murderer being on the loose in the town, the less deaths, riots or vandals we have, the more time we have to find the murderer and have less deaths."

"Good point." Zed answers back.

We soon hit a dead end in the investigation, and we all agree to stop investigating for now.

360noscopesweg sighed as he sat in his house quietly, the only sound was the clock slowly ticking.

"Shut up" he said to the clock, knowing it would do no good.

He heard knocking on the door, he sighed as he moved towards the door, at the outside was Vertroyer, in his hands were papers about role ideas, as usual, 360noscopesweg found it kind of weird that Vert was staying casual about the murder of 1/2 of their boss, the other 1/2 being himself. But then again, work is work, he's probably seen worse due to all the bodies and roles he had to clean up.

"What is it Vertroyer?" He said in an mixture of a sincerity and anger in his voice.

"You need to go outside and take a breather." Vertroyer said, writing some words onto one of the papers and stamped a rejected stamp on it.

"And why is that?"

"Being angry and not having an alibi are two things we don't need right now"

"... Fine, where are we going?"

"The bakery would make the most sense, FirePyre's still working there, even after the murder happen, as he said "A little murder isn't going to stop me from having to pay my bills.""

Vertroyer and 360noscopesweg started walking to the bakery, when suddenly Vertroyer fell on the ground.

"What t-" 360noscopesweg yelled "Vertroyer, what ha-"

The last thing 360noscopesweg saw was a flash of a baseball bat before he was hit by it and got knocked out cold.

HAWAIIAN, Zed and Rex were walking when Zed suddenly stopped in his tracks

"Zed?" Rex asked "What's up?"

"Smoke..." Zed said "I smell smoke..."

Rex and I both sniffed the air, the smell of thick smoke filled our noses.

I coughed and said "Yep, I can smell it now..."

"Uhh.... is a house fire normal?" Rex asked.

"Yes, of course it is" Zed said sarcastically, "NO IT ISN'T, LEAD THE WAY!"

We started running towards the house that was on fire, which the sign in the yard said it was "Venera's house"

"Is it just me, or does it seem ironic that the arsonist's house has been arsoned?" I said quietly while we were running.

​BOOOOOOOOOM!

​An explosion went off somewhere. I jumped from the suprise of it. Damn jumpscares.

"What the hell was that?" Zed asked.

As if it answered it's self, Venera's house roof collaspe down into the house.

We then realised the crowd of people, a mixture of anons and townies surrounding the remains of Venera's house, due to the loud explosion.

"Just f**king perfect..." I thought "This is going fine..."

"Why did the killer have everyone know there is a killer on the loose..."
