“I guess it’s as they say, a criminal always returns to the scene of the crime...” Hiroki trailed off as he followed his companion. ‘Though I think only rookies would make a mistake like that,’ he thought to himself, ruffling the back of his hair as he mindlessly followed. It was only after a few minutes did he realize that he had either (a) not paid attention to anything Higan has said or (b) neither of them had spoken. ‘I should say something before this awkward spiral continues...’
“So I’m curious, are you native to Kaze? It’s unusual to see a Hyuuga living in this part of the world,” Hiroki asked in an attempt to strike up a conversation. “Not to say that you’re unusual or something like that.” He hit himself in the head mentally realizing he shouldn’t have said that. ‘Ugh...was I always this awkward with people?’ he wondered. He listened to Higan’s response while taking glimpses around his surroundings. He wasn’t sure what district of the village they were in and to be honest he hadn’t explored much other than his apartment and the path to the hospital. He started to take mental notes whenever he could in-between Higan’s speech.
When they entered the crime scene it was sectioned off to keep civilians from entering. The furniture was in disarray showing signs of a struggle, or at least the victim running away before being caught in the living room. The floor was stained in blood which gave the room a familiar odor to the chuunin. ‘Hasn’t been too long since this murder,’ he thought to himself, re-enacting the crime scene in his head. “I’d say the victim was taken by surprise,” pointing at the broken window across the dining table, “as the murderer jumped through the window, and, seeing the danger they were in the victim jumped up and made a run for the living room...but it was futile and they wound up dead right there...sorry if that seemed like common sense, I dictate my thoughts when it comes to missions like this...force of habit.”
“Do your eyes see anything?” Hiroki asked, waiting patiently for an answer.
