"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to bother you sir. I'm currently investigating a murder case involving an alchemist who was murdered with a flask of acid. Suppose you happen to know anything about it?"

"Shouldn't you have some sort of truth serum or something?" Whitney asks.
"No."
"Arf!"
The man just scoffs. "Pft. I got nothing. Just get lost and let me smoke in peace."
"Hmmm..." Whitney leans closer to Cadence and whispers in her ear. "Tell your doggo to bite the guy. That'll get him to talk for sure."
Sat, 08/12/2017 - 18:53
#762
Cadence beckons Fluffers closer to her and kneels down beside him, ruffling his floof while letting off a smile.
"Fluffers..."
The Apprentice's smile suddenly converts into a scowl, as she without warning raises an index finger towards the man before them.
"Sick him."

"Sick him." The man doesn't seem to care until Fluffers jumps at him, knocking him down.
"Aaah! Get him off me! Help!" The man starts panicking as Fluffers... Licks him. Well, Woof-lfs are wild beasts, which is probably why he's so spooked. He doesn't know that he's being licked. "Alright! I'll tell ya! Just get your dog to stop!
Satisfied, Cadence calls Fluffers back with a "Here boy". When the man stands up, wiping himself off, she asks her question. "Alright, do you know something about the murder of the alchemist?"
"Yeah, I do. I saw a person that looked just like you, but taller intimidating the guy. Then it got violent, and the stranger smashed the man's face with a bottle of acid."
Clue obtained: Killer's description
He then pulled out another cigarette and lit it up. "You got what you wanted, so leave me alone."

Decker looks around all suspicious-like, and then he says: "Uhh, yeah! Now that you mention it... I did hear some evil laughing... to my left."
"That way, then?"
"No, to my left."
"Wait, which left are you talking about?"
"Mine! As in that way!"
"Oh, okay."

There's a town guard. He's dead. By a glass bottle in the face, apparently.

Cadence walks back to Decker. "Hey Decker, can you come see this for a second?"
"Sure." He follows the apprentice to where the body of the poor guard is. "Good heavens! What happened here!"
"Must've been... A 'no witnesses' thing. By the way, Decker, do you know who this is?"
Decker scratched his head a little... "No. It's pretty embarrassing, really, not knowing the names of several lookalikes. Whitney is my only friend in this town."
You've somehow received enough evidence for your case. Now you just have to pick someone to accuse! You know that the culprit knows about alchemy, looks slightly like apprentice, and has an evil laugh. Not you just gotta pick a name out of all the people you know.

'Hagitha Sirkual' seems like it belongs to the Evil Witch...
Yeah, my best guess is Hagitha Sirkual.

Unique Sidequest
"It's Hagitha Sirkual!" Cadence yells to nobody in particular.
Decker doesn't pay much mind to it, as he's reading a book. "Who?"
"After compiling all the evidence, this is the most logical answer! First, she's an evil witch, which is why she had access to acid. And evil people also have evil laughs! And if she looked like me, it's definitely her!" Cadence took a deep breath. "Also she's the only villain on the list so..."
Obligatory explosion happens! "Nee hee hee! So you figured it out at last, girl?"
"Yeah, and I'm gonna stop you from murdering more people!"
Whitney runs in because she heard the explosion. "What's happening?!"
Decker points to Hagitha. "She's an evil witch, and she is responsible for the murder!"
"Hey witch! Why'd you murder that person?!"
Hagitha cackles. "Heh heh, I just needed more supplies for my ultimate potion. Once I'm finished, I'll spread poison all over Sohnelbuy! Hahaha!"
"Arf arf!"
Cadence gets ready for battle. "You are insane. We'll stop you, evil raven!"

"I solved it! The evil witch we fought in the last chapter was behind the murder and was planning to spread a poisonous gas all over Sohnelbuy!" Cadence said proudly.
"Did you capture the hag or did she teleport away?" Speedrunner asked.
"...she exploded."
Speedrunner doesn't ask any more questions and just goes back to admiring his sword.
