Scioly Assassination 167: Nightlife in the City

[zedsfh]

I watch poonda as well for the reasons treesdea mentioned (white cat and flight)

[LayingOnADesk]

I choose to watch pumptato-cat because of plane cat

[Assassinator]

CLUE FIVE
The required kill count is lowered to 11. Any thoughts?
Secondly, to the watches from the officers:

1 - Poonda

A jet white cat is stumbling down the streets. A bright light flashes, and he is stunned. You look down, pleased that you have finally found a proper target.
“I’VE GOT YOU NOW” you shout, unable to overcome the joy that has finally engulfed you.
On him, you find a note with instructions to kill “Borneo.”
You wonder what it is, but the thought escapes your mind.

A job well done, indeed.
Salutes to you officers, for tipping me off of this cat.

Meanwhile, across the town, an Assassinator is angry that the Job has not been carried out.
They must carry it out themselves.

2 - Pumptato-cat

Yet another cat is found the same night.
This time, there is no note.
Having to leave tomorrow, there is no chance that you are able to look around for more clues to do with this cat.

This job is incomplete.
Officers, you tried your best.

Results from the watches:
1. Sc95837’s status is unknown.
2. Poonda is the hitman.
3. Pumptato-cat’s status is unkown.

Happy July Fourth (though late). My name is Oliver Ridley and I will be taking over the narrative from here on.
With the discovery of the hitman and his locking up, we and the rest of our detective organization in our little town in Maryland have decided to set me up with finding the Assassinator.
I have a well-detailed plan to find them.
On the hitman, we shall likely be holding a trial for him soon.

Now onto the serious information.
We hacked into the Assassinator’s vast system network, but during it, we accidentally left some clues hinting back toward one of our hackers, and it is unknown whether or not the Assassinator might want retaliation.
Here is our code overview from that night:

Code: Select all

01:04:35 entering: system-Assassinator
01:04:50 system access: granted
01:04:50 access token: TPN-915
01:14:28 downloading: assassination-files.pdf
01:15:34 DOWNLOAD RESTRICTED
01:15:36 intruder alert active
01:16:03 access denied. digital fingerprint taken

We have left our digital fingerprint in the files, though we believe it has nothing to do with the access token and means of gaining system access.

On another note, a web of branches within the file assassination-files.pdf has shown to be noteworthy.
It turns out that one of the people that you have seen from the previous files has turned up to be the Assassinator. We have no clue who it was, but this is shocking evidence, and we will be keeping watch on everyone involved.

Yet again, someone has died. We have sketched up an animation on a digital drawing application of how the murder took place.
What puzzles us is the victim was strangled with a strand of Christmas lights, even though they were very clearly sick.
We believe that this sickness has passed on to more people, and notes from the file assassination-files.pdf shows that the Assassinator has accidentally caught the sickness.

Kalimantan28 has died. The next kill will occur on 16 July at 19:00 CST.

[LayingOnADesk]

Ok so clue analysis will come later, but two questions. One: who is Kalimantan28. I’ve not heard of them.

Secondly, is the hitman, poonda, being supplied with proper legal counsel? If so, I request the name of his legal firm and representative. I would also like to be informed of the court daye.

[LayingOnADesk]

I protect hterrapin because they have christmas light in their porfile, tpn could be an abbreviation, and their old discriminator was 0915.

[LittleMissNyan]

I choose to watch hterrapin and leave the hitman accusation of poonda to someone with an actual functional set of executive functioning spoons

[Assassinator]

Before Clue Six is to be posted, zedsfh has died.
A new officer must be found.
Direct message me the sentence derived from the following.

Officer clue:
ПАСТЕЛЦОНЦОБЕРТУРАСДЕФРЕСАЫЧОЦОЛАТЕ.
Hint: Ч is not exactly what you think it is.

[Assassinator]

In addition, I have kept the game moderate-slow pace recently due to general inactivity and also a few personal occurrences. If you would like the pace picked up and shorter time deadlines given to officers to make their choices, feel free to speak up.
I can change the rules to accommodate for this if needed.

[Assassinator]

CLUE SIX
The time will be extended for each clue as no fourth officer was found.

Good evening once again. We have located a possible disturbance around Northern Britain. It seems a likely murderous moonlight migration is coming over from there, and we are not sure what good our golden infrared camera systems will be to stop this.

We rest salutations in our hacker Zedsfh, and hope to move on from it. A slight problem that we do have is, gathered from intelligence reports, another member of our group is being targeted currently.

On another note, we have three new interns from Central HS, each with there own abilities. However, we know for certain that the Assassinator is definitely watching one of the interns, and may be targeting them soon.

How do we know this? Well, we used some trickery with light polarization to read through some documents that the Assassinator attempted to censor, and a cloud of knowledge was set upon us with this. And so, I present you each of our three interns:

INTERN-AB-1
S: F
Personality: Loves cats, organization, and projects.
Notes: Joined a highly recognized 1968-founded organization well-known within the educational community. Has great background with chemical forensic analysis from her time in research facilities.

INTERN-AB-2
S: M
Personality: Arachnid enthusiast, geologist.
Notes: High-ranking officer in a group dedicated toward using mathematics and logic to deduce the likelihood of someone being an Assassinator.

INTERN-AB-3
S: F
Personality: A bit of a mischief-maker, likes watching football.
Notes: Exemplary student, has worked with the artist that drew the animation of how the murder took place. Young, but extremely studious.

We hope that you can help us here with deducing who is being targeted now and may be watched later.

Zedsfh has died.
