-- Right, I was meaning to tell you. I got a gumball called Foresight this week. It apparently lets me see a premonition of a future case. I used it on Wednesday, but I didn't see anything until last night while I was sleeping.
He runs a hand through his hair, but the motion is more frustrated than depressed.]
I didn't really see much. I was somewhere very cold, and I was tired. I was speaking to someone else, but I couldn't hear the words. Then the person I was talking to transformed into a monster? Or some kind of creature? And they were furious.
And then I woke up, without seeing their face or where I even really was.
hm. jiuqing's brow furrows, trying not to think too hard about who would be kind or understanding enough to try and talk to someone who may have been about to turn into a monster and kill them.]
Yes. Where we saw the... horse and the panda, earlier in the week, perhaps?
[...that's such a weird sentence to be saying. animals on ice...]
...ah - I didn't want to say it last week, in case knowing about it caused a killer to take measures against it. But I have a fingerprinting kit, so if there's anything we need to figure out who could have touched it... just let me know.
[...]
I have another item, as well, which will take me to the most relevant location in a case. And... some incense, which will allow me to see a vision of what happened in a place at a certain time if I burn it in that location while thinking of that time.
[...The ends of his hair lighten a little, turning into a pale pink.]
...So we should definitely be careful when we're bringing stuff back. If I go out to investigate, then I'll ask whoever's with me to wear gloves too. I won't mention the kit until you think it's time to use it.
[maybe she shouldn't, given - refraction, and all. anyone could be refracted, and anyone could kill.
but she does trust him. maybe it's foolish.
even leaving that aside, though - ]
...but also... now that I've told you about it, if you are refracted, you really have no choice but to preserve the evidence anyway. Because if you "forget," and end up not wearing gloves - well, that would be suspicious.

What... did you see?

That's what I was thinking. ...But we kind of knew that already, right? Since Crow was there...

What... is that some sort of vehicle?

It looks like one, right? Bubble-chan said that it has something to do with maintaining ice...

One of those rinks on the mountain, then?

[someone was yuri on iced...]
I guess that gives us a better staring point than the entire mountain.

His eyes go wide at the mention,]
That's definitely going to be useful -- all of that. Do you have to use them before a certain time? I know Shuu-kun said his luminol expired...

The incense I can use once a week.

Thank you. I'd prefer it if a culprit had no opportunity to tamper with anything before I used it... that's why I kept it to myself last week.
no subject
...What about me? Are you not worried at all about the possibility?
