Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Luckily, Leo was still recovering from his fall and didn't see Des rolling her eyes. Once Leo was sure that Liam couldn't hear, he said to Des. "The flowers and birds are the sign of the practitioner that performed the spell. Their magical fingerprint, if you will. And a 100% confirmation that this is a SAU case after all."
Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Liam looks somewhat perturbed at Leo's gymnastics.
"Um - I'll find the cleaners' details. I'll meet you back in reception yeah?"
Eli - your search is pretty thorough, but you find nothing of interest in any of the changing areas, except perhaps a faint floral smell (or maybe that's your imagination, fired by Des and Leo's discussion).

So, what now? |

Des waited until Liam had headed back to the reception area, then said, ”So dat smell is what ‘appens when someone does magic? Ok… …”
She looked around. ”So we know ‘e was ‘ere an’ dat ‘e was spyin’ on people getting’ changed, but ‘ow did ‘e die? ‘is brain got turned to mush. Ain’t dat like what ‘appened to my fone at de skittle alley?”

Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Leo sent a text to DCI Nightingale: "DCI Nightingale, there were vestigia in the dressing rooms I texted about but we didn't find anything unusual when we searched. It's definitely a case for us. Do we have permission to allow the leisure centre to reopen? Anything else to check before we go?"
Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Des - you are correct. Remembering some of the gruesome safety lectures given to you by Nightingale, magic can indeed scramble both microprocessors and brains alike. It's a phenomenon called Hyperthaumaturgical Degradation, or HTD.
Eli - Heading back to the reception area, you find Liam downloading the CCTV files and visitor logs onto a USB stick.
"Here you go," he says cheerfully. "Oh, and the cleaners were Flora DeSilva and Maggie Wojcik. The police have already taken their statements, but I've got their contact details."
He hands you a scrap of paper with their phone numbers and addresses (both modest dwellings at Aarons Hill, Godalming).
Leo - you quickly receive a reply from DI Nightingale:
'Not my call, but if you're certain no danger is posed to the public, I'll pass your recommendations on to the SIO of the case at Surrey Police.'
'Your next step? One assumes the deceased drove to the centre? Is his car still there?'

Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Leo texts back Thank you. At this point, I do believe it is safe. We do know he owned a black Porsche Boxster, and we are going to check the car park for it before we leave.

As Leo finishes the text, he takes a moment to walk over and look through the window into the part of the car park that he can see through the window to see if he sees a black Boxster anywhere.

”Wot’s up? Wot u lookin’ for?” asked Des, appearing at Leo’s shoulder.
Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
An Observation roll for anyone looking for the Porsche please. |

" I believe we ate looking for the deceaseds car, a Porche Boxter i believe." [b[/b] Eli replies to Des as he suddenly appears at her shoulder, in that way that only teachers can do.
Looking around, all Eli sees is a sea of cars.....

Distracted by Eli’s creepy teacher vibe, Des couldn’t pick out the car.

Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
The Porsche, having being left unattended in the car park for a couple of days, is covered in dust and thus difficult to find.
However Eli is a little more eagle-eyed than his colleagues and eventually spots the car, tucked away in a quiet corner.
On trying the door handle, you find the Porsche Boxster locked.

OOC: Is the amount of dust consistent with the amount of time since the murder? |

Re: Statement 2a - Godalming Leisure Centre
Leo knows any magic here would only make things worse, so he keeps his mana dry, just in case.
"We may not need to use that method yet. There may be a legitimate way to access it that would be easier and save all our jobs. Like checking to see if the the keys were found with his effects or enlist the manufacturer's help through a legitimate request from the police department."

”Mebbe a brick or summat?” suggested Des, who clearly hadn’t given up on the more direct approach.
