The Synodiporia Psychic Network

[Within an hour of the sounds of murder subsiding, there's a careful voice on the network.]

Sooooo, uh. Quick-- quick little update on the whole thing we're dealing with right now?

Because I said there was, like- a necromantic lich thing, before? Some updates there. Wish it was good news, but... yeah. Rarely ever is with this type of thing.

So, first off. The dead dude upstairs? Previous host. I got a good look at the scene, had a poke around, and there're signs of a pretty bad struggle before our dude just out and died. Someone was beating it up pretty bad, probably with some kind of holy magic just judging by the burn marks alone. They would've won, probably, except then I think the other lich exploded and fuckin' just-- ran like the wind.

S-- so, uh. Bad news - there's a life energy-eating spirit on the loose. But, uh, goooood news? [Debatably] Seems like it needs a host, so. It can't go far. Especially with that barrier up.

Uh, second thing. I managed to get a couple 'f answers out of the corpse itself. Poor schmuck just - really did not know what hit him; ol' Lichy'd been possessing him for a few weeks, minimum, before he got here and got murdered to the Nine Hells and back. But, I did get two leads out of him, maybe. The guy's employer, whoever that is, and some Hunter he said was following him for pretty much the entire time - and, honestly, knowing ghost bounty hunters, was probably the murderer.

That's, uh. That's all I got.

Okay, so. Um.

We broke into this-- Edward, Yakumo guy's room, and we found his diary. Or, diaries, plural, he's got two of them.

[It takes a bit of effort, but a livestream flickers into existence, and it shows stocky, stubby hands thumbing rapidly through a journal, almost faster than the eye can follow; Barry's already read this one. In the corner of his vision, Yukino is visible, but the stream flickers out again very quickly as Barry looks up.]

And, uh- one of them isn't very useful, from his first year, it's just-- he's just gushing about how cool Majesty's is, he's making a map with someone... and also hates Them, capital T, whoever they even are. This might be the, uh, angels? Cos those things really are everywhere, b-but it could also be those orphans? Wait, he keeps referring to them by name, maybe not, but I mean, potentially...?

[...he got distracted.]

B-but, uh. The second diary, that's where shit gets real juicy. Like, both of these are full of, like, law reforms and shit, but this one starts going really in-depth on how to implement them? A-and other laws and stuff he thinks oughta be passed. Also he hates Zedward. And even just being around other students in general. Also also, uh.

He seems pretty sure that Yukino is the sabotager. So. Maybe that's not him?
