[Bernkastel examines the strip, touching both sides experimentally.]

It may be tape for her mouth--to keep her from making noise, presumably.

[She compares the pink of the strip to the pink of Lydia's lipstick.]

[aozaki]

[After having found a detail or two, Touko speaks up again to address Bernkastel and Felicia.]

I'd like to pull the body out and lay her on her back, we can't leave her like this anyhow. Where's a good place, while you two continue here?

<small[she can drag the corpse alone, but this IS the crime scene the others happened across first.]

[obsideo]

You're right. It's not really sticky, though.

(She puts the tape on the counter to keep it safe, and opens her notebook to write down the number of pieces of tape. Then, she glances at Touko.)

That's a good idea. I think maybe...if you took her back to her room, that might be better.

[miraculous]

[Bernkastel frowns at that idea.] Moving the body out of the tub is acceptable. I would not want to move it into another room until we're certain that room is unconnected to the murder.

[aozaki]

I just want to examine the body up front. Where would you suggest? There isn't much room here, although I could settle for the hallway.

[She juts a thumb over her shoulder too; directly outside if the other two women don't mind, if they want to keep everything within their immediate line of sight.]

[obsideo]

That sounds okay. The floor's wet in here.

(She'll move away from the tub to let Touko through, and instead goes to inspect the door.)

[miraculous]

[Bernkastel nods, accepting this proposal, and steps away from the tub as well.]

[aozaki]

[Off Touko goes with Lydia's body into the hallway with a hum of acknowledgement, before laying the corpse face up on the floor that the bathroom door directly opens up to. Good luck with the crime scene, she'll be busy outside.]

[productions]

[There's nothing unusual about the door, except for a few marks left on the handle by the chair and the damage to the hinges done by the three forcing it open.]

[obsideo]

(Once Touko is gone, she gets down on the floor to look around for anything dropped near the door or chair.)

[miraculous]

[Bernkastel now turns to the keys she saw earlier.] These are hers, I believe. We should check this room for exits other than the door.

[productions]

[Besides the keys and water, there's nothing unusual on the ground. The chair is the same chair present in every room in emerald wing, with a green cushion. It's somewhat damaged, with the top broken, apparently from the handle, and a small notch running along the side.]

[obsideo]

Maybe there's a secret exit. What do you think?

(She gets back up.)
