Killing In The Borderline/Dialogues

Evan: Lindsey, why are you saying Ash is Dr. Cyanide? Please, give me that phone. Lindsey: It's no use. He hung. But I know he's Dr. Cyanide! Listen to me. Lindsey: Remember that woman, Jessica Trimmle? The things I found in our database are very different from that story about the Flukes and the flares. Lindsey: She died because she ate a salad with vegetables she had planted in her garden. And her plants had been poisoned with cyanide! Lindsey: Jessica died alone in her house from poisoned plants. Like the first hints you had from Dr. Cyanide. You know, a petunia and a fern... Lindsey: Mysteriously, her body was moved and left near that stadium. When that wall fell above her, people thought she'd been crushed by the wall. Lindsey: If she had been sitting and seeing the match inside the stadium, she would have fallen above the broken wall, not below. Evan: So someone poisoned Jessica and took her corpse to the stadium. When the Flukes broke the wall, it looked like a tragic accident. Evan: But what does that have to do with Ash? Lindsey: This happened 20 years ago, when Jessica was living with his concubine, Ash! Lindsey: Linda Farren wrote an article about her death and said it was suicide because Jessica was a stupid woman who couldn't look after her plants. Evan: But 20 years ago Linda was just 11! Lindsey: She wrote the article many years later. Ten years ago, as a commemoration for the tenth anniversary of her death. That explains why Dr. Cyanide is targetting her. Lindsey: Did you notice? Everyone thought Jessica had died at the stadium, but Linda knew the truth! Evan: That's really mysterious, but Dr. Cyanide "wants to know how he died", not "how she died". Lindsey: You know, gangsters can't speak English very well. Evan: No. Ash would have started killing plants ten years ago, or twenty, if that was the truth. Evan: And Linda would be already dead! So it's not that. It's something that happened very recently. Lindsey: I refuse to believe I'm wrong! Evan: Tell me, what does Ash have in common with Doodley? Ash is a Hades, and Doodley is a Fluke. Lindsey: Well, they're both in a gang. Evan: Linda didn't mean that. What they have in common is not that.

Evan: What do you think, ? Is Ash Dr. Cyanide? I don't think so. Alan Smith: Sorry to interrupt your talk about Dr. Cyanide. Personally, I think that's a childish name. Alan Smith: But I guess it can't be helped. It was invented by Gino. Alan Smith: I've been on the phone with the chief of police from Low River, the city next to Townville. A body has been found lying on the city limit. Alan Smith: However, there are only fields of wheat beyond the limit so the killer surely came from Townville. Alan Smith: Thus, you are in charge of this case. Go there as soon as you can. It's on the Evergreen Way. Evan: Understood, Chief! Evergreen Way, on limit. Let's go, !

Chapter 1
Investigate City limit Evan: Bite marks on the neck and a dead snake. This murder isn't original. I feel I've seen this scenario somewhere before. But where? Evan: You're right, that case at the Tourist Convention when we were still working at the Countryside. Evan: Those times... Please, stop it, Evan, focus! This man's ID says he is Franco Baldebin. Evan: Ok, I think that's it. Let's send these two corpses to the morgue.

Daniel: Another case, ? Daniel: Wait, isn't this man Franco Baldebin? Evan: He is. He was. Do you know him? Tell us any important information. Daniel: This is Ash's son! Why don't you talk to Ash? I'm sure he knows more things about Franco than I do. Evan: Isn't there any other relative? I can't talk to Ash when Lindsey has just told him he's Dr. Cyanide. Daniel: That girl... I'm really sure Ash is not Dr. Cyanide. Daniel: Well, if you don't want to interrogate him, one of Ash's sons is not part of the Hades. I think you should give it a try and interrogate him. Daniel: His name is Matthew Baldebin, but he's not a person who spends time out of his own house. I'm sure Ash will tell you more relevant things that Matthew. Evan: Ok, we'll talk to both, just in case.
