A Shot in the Dark

A Shot in the Dark (Case #19) is the second fanmade case of the Twilight Town district and the nineteenth case by CCFan32.

Case Background
While Junior Officer Michael Collins and the player are patrolling the district during the morning (though it's almost pitch black), they meet the district's mayor, Dennis Hoffman. He welcomes the team into the district and wanted to have a cup of tea with them. Before Michael could decline Dennis' offer, the district's steeple bell rang. Dennis was scared and wondered who could be turned into a pig this time. Abruptly, a giant cloud of purple smoke came out of nowhere and when the cloud went away, all the team saw was a pig before them. Michael freaked out and said that the urban legend was true. He then asks where the player was going.

It turns out that the mayor's dead body was found in his own home with a bullet between his eyes. Elizabeth confirmed that the cause of death was a bullet right between the eyes and found out that the mayor was initially choked but didn't die from it. Elizabeth thinks that the mayor fought his killer before being shot to death.
