Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
Tony shudders when he sees the images. "I've never seen anything like that," he says, "but it looks like one of those myths in that book about Japan we found, those girls with long hair, whaddayacallem?" He nods to the professor and shows him the crumpled invoice he found in the wastebasket. "Apparently Veronica hired the Maritime East Shipping Agents here in Arkham some weeks ago. It doesn't say what for, but she paid them 186 bucks. That's a lot of scratch, but she could have afforded it. We'll have to pay them a visit and find out what it was for."

Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
"It's a drawing of one of those Japanese monsters from the book, perhaps the Professor was right when we were at the Chadwick's that night." Ted stuffs the crumpled paper in his jacket. He didn't want it just laying around. "Nice find on the shipping invoice. What did you find on the window Francis?" Ted asks looking around to see if there is anything we missed.
.
"Now why would she put the postcard under the bed?? Why not just throw it away, unless there was some part of her sanity still grasping for her friends."
Ted gets up and walks over to her dresser (where ever she keeps her clothes) and takes a quick look through there.

"Thanks," says Tony. "There's an Arkham address on this invoice. After we finish here, that should be our next stop."

Francis doesn't seem to understand what he is watching.

"Professor, seirously? We have a young lady whose missing. Possibly kidnapped, gone insane from japenese monsters, or brainwashed from some cult, or something else we haven't considered, whatever the situation, I do not believe from what I have heard of her, it was her choosing. If I thought there might be a clue in the first lady's smalls, I'd search there also. I'm a professional and I take my job seriously. I'd wish you would as well." Ted says with a disgust in his voice.

Ted looks around the room to see if there is anywhere they haven't searched. "Whats with the window?" Ted walks over and takes a look.

Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
-I'm not sure. I noticed it, but I can't say exactly what it is.
Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
Professor Krugman: Yes but um maybe the lady's female cousin should be attending to those... You know, decorum... What's that you've found on the window there?
Spoiler:
Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
Now that Francis has drawn your attention to it you all see that the pane of glass nearest the desk top has a smear mark enhanced by the weak sunlight. You all move to look at it. But the professor seems to realise what it is first, he blows on the glass, and in the fogging effect of his breath on the window you all see;
That an image has been drawn on the glass by a finger. It is similar to the ones you have seen on the pad and seems to be a young woman of asian dress hanging by a rope. The detail is good enough that you can see a single tear drop falling from her eye.
However it is when the drawing is viewed from the level of a person seated at the dek that the true horror hits. She has been drawn in such a way that she looks to be hanging from a branch of the oak tree outside the window.

"How repulsive," Ted says ignoring the previous comment by the professor.

"But I have to admit, the girl had some talent. Interesting how it lines up with branch outside." Ted adds.

Ted moves off to the side and looks at the tree branch in question from a different angle.

Tony is not overly creeped out by the figure in the window. "Weird," he says. "What does that book say about these dames with the long hair?"

Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
Francis wasn't affected but found it of bad taste.
"So the girl probably got nuts, it runs in the family"- he thinks.

Re: Scene Two - Veronica's Flat
***********************
In answer to Tony's query, Francis, quickly looks through the book. He finds nothing that refers to girls with long hair, but he does find a picture of a mountain rising above a forest similar to the doodle on the desk pad. The picture is captioned 'Fuji rises above the Aokigaraha'We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are.

"Yeah," says Tony. "That book that Miss Barrett found in the Chadwick library did have a story about ghost girls with long hair. They were called Yurei, I think."
