Hoist The Dead/Dialogues

Evan: We're such an inspiration! Thomas Allywae asked us to be part of his project. Evan: Let's better go earlier. We could get baffled at the amount of students we could see.

Evan: Don't you love to see the flag shaking in the middle of the school playground? Evan: Wait... There's a boy tied to it! How could he even get there? Evan: OH GOD!!! He's dead, . A dead child in the middle of the school! Evan: I know I've been complaining for political murders, but I prefer those to these ones. Evan: Thomas's project will have to wait. I don't even think he'll have classes today. C'mon, let's get the kid down and start investigating.

Chapter 1
Investigate School playground Evan: I can't even look at his eye. He surely didn't deserve to die. What sins could he have? Evan: And you're right, we should take a look at the flag's pulley. There's no other way this killer could get this boy here. Evan: That's also true. We could start by interrogating the headmaster about the victim's identity, though he won't like to see this picture.

Autopsy the victim's body Daniel: I hate to work like this. Performing autopsies on little boys is terrible. This killer must be caught! Daniel: The murderer used an unknown murder weapon. And it went through the victim's right eye. Daniel: I don't know what the object is, but I guess it was a paintbrush, a little one. Evan: Why do you say that? Daniel: I found very small artificial hairs inside the eye, and also some watercolor. Evan: Nobody has watercolor inside the eyes, it came from the killer. Let's write that down, .

Examine Pulley Evan: , the fibers you found on the pulley could have come from the killer. Evan: Let's send them to the lab right now.

Analyze Fibers Lindsey: Sabrina was better at this. It was really a challenge to analyze these fibers. Evan: You're right, Sabrina went on holidays. I had just forgotten. Lindsey: Yeah, she's at Blue Coasts enjoying the sun. Now, let's talk about the fibers. Lindsey: It was kind of hard to rearrange the pattern, but when I started, no one could stop me! This is tartan flannel and silk. Lindsey: A tartan flannel shirt and silk tie is the Benjamin Franklin School uniform, which is worn by both students and teachers. And... your killer. Evan: I wonder why the killer was wearing the uniform when they broke in the school to tie a kid to the flag.

Ask the headmaster about the murder Hugo: Good morning,   and Inspector Evan. I'm sorry for this incident. My name is Hugo Holland. Evan: Are you Arnold Holland's descendant? The one that gives name to Holland River? Hugo: In fact, my ancestor was one of the best mayors Townville has ever had. He ruled three periods. Hugo: I'm the head of the Educative Party. Our future mayor is a child right now, and I want them to have had a good education. Evan: There must be conflicts between you and Alberto Gandil. He's Justus Gandil's descendant, the mayor who ruled between Arnold's second and third period. Evan: We'll have time for that later. This boy is the victim, do you know him? Hugo: WHAT??? He's Martin Darejam! You should talk to the school gatekeeper, Kayla Tropel. Hugo: And also the Students' Center president, James Waker.

Question the gatekeeper about the security Evan: Good morning, Kayla. We want you to talk to us about Martin Darejam's murder. Kayla: You know, I don't remember who he is. I watch the kids get in and out everyday without asking them what their name is. Kayla: But it surely is a terrible tragedy, for sure. I've always said I had to do night shifts, but the head thinks it's a waste of money. Kayla: One thing is sure. The killer is a part of this school. Only the head, some teachers and important students have the keys to the main door. Evan: Important students? Kayla: For example, the Students' Center president. Neither do I have the key, you can be sure about that.

See what the Students' Center President has to say about the murder Evan: Hello, James. We have to tell you something. Martin Darejam has been killed and tied to the school flag. James: WHAT THE-! No, it can't be possible! Why would anyone do this? James: The Students' Center won't shut up this time! We'll talk to Mr Holland about the security, and... I need these papers... Excuse me, officers- Evan: No officers, Inspector and . And you're too little to worry about that paperwork. James: I may not be an adult, but I'm a teenager. And I'm in charge of an institution. James: I'll tell you a couple of things about Martin. He was the representant of third year in Primary School at the Students' Center. And he was just a kid, innocent of everything.

Evan: This thing of the Students' Center... it's kind of weird. Evan: It's hard to interrogate teenagers about murders. Remember the boy who invited us here? Evan: Ok, back to the Students' Center. If Martin spent time here, we should take a look around, yeah?

Investigate Students' Center Evan: It had to be a paintbrush... stained with blood! This is our murder weapon, it's obvious! Evan: This has got something etched. Can you decipher it?

Examine Paintbrush Evan: "Benjamin Franklin School". So this paintbrush comes from this school. Great. Evan: The murder weapon was at the Students' Center. Why don't we ask James again about this?

Talk to James Waker about the paintbrush Evan: We're sorry to bother you again, James. Do you recognise this paintbrush? James: Of course I do! It was given to the winners of "Benjamin Franklin Music Week". James: The ones that performed the best solo, a song, ballad, opera or whatever, was given one of these paintbrushes. Evan: So the prize was a paintbrush? James: Well, it's more useful than a trophy. Evan: Ok. So our killer plays music, .

Some minutes after that...

Evan: What should we do next, ? Any ideas? Evan: The flag? Yeah, maybe there's something else on it. Let's take a look at it. Lindsey: , I found someone that could help you in this investigation. Evan: Who is it? Lindsey: I found the Teachers' Center President!

Chapter 2
Lindsey: I found the Teachers' Center President! Evan: So there's also a Teachers' Center at that school? They're really modern! Lindsey: Her name is Ruth Franche and she's the maths teacher at High School. Evan: Fine, let's interrogate her and examine that flag.
