Justice

Beta#12013275

Ladies and gentlemen of the public court. The following is submitted into evidence for your viewing.

Zee Carlisle, also Zachariah Carlisle, was murdered in late August by persons unknown. The cause of death appears to be stabbing by a long sharp object on the roof of the Wiffle Waffle Waffle House. No other persons appear in the video. However, the series of events is recorded as follows:

1) Zee Carlisle is observed approaching the Wiffle Waffle House and checking the mailbox repeatedly for some time.
2) Zee begins to fall as if he has been struck, disappearing as he does so. Outside sources have confirmed that Zee was able to teleport short distances.
3) He next appears on the security tape on the roof of the building, impaled on an unknown object.
4) He teleports again, where his body is found obscuring the entrance of the Wiffle Waffle waffle house some time later. Witnesses confirm that it was as if he appeared out of nowhere.
5) The words "Jim, did you know" appear on the side of the waffle house written in blood.

Video of the death has been loaded onto a working laptop in the public library for your examination. Do not try to destroy the video or the laptop. There are many copies.

In Zee's office, the following evidence was discovered:
1) A list of former Retrospec users who appear to no longer be on the app. It is not certain when they left.
2) A list of non-Retrospec users who have died within the last few months. These people are all criminals. They have all died in strange and unexplained or self-inflicted ways.
3) The last six individuals Zee checked on before he left his office and died. These individuals are: James Barnes. Akira Turner. Eren Jaeger. Leo Valdez. Minato Arisato. Hitori Togusa.
4) Conversations between Zee and the following individuals concerning a task he needed to focus on or on the increasingly dangerous situation in Recolle: Eren Jaeger. Leo Valdez. Minato Arisato. Hitori Togusa.
5) Multiple photos of the mailbox.

We propose the following:
Zee Carlisle was investigating the mysterious deaths and believed them to be murders. Those who had left the app were no longer suspects as they did not retain their regained items or abilities. Zee believed that the murders were conducted by the use of an item returned to a Retrospec user. Zee was concerned that other items would be returned, either to the same Retrospec user, or to others, that would be misused.

When he went to the mailbox in person, the Retrospec user realized that Zee had grown too close to their identity. Zee was thus murdered using this item. We know that this person is able to use this item to commit murders while making it appear to be something else, even after medical examination. The deaths were ruled as heart attack, suicide, and choking. It is possibly something extremely powerful, such as a kind of illusion ability or mind control or even a magical spell that causes death. At least one of the victims called the police in advance to report that they were dying. However, we know the ability must be used as a physical item as it was returned through the mailbox.

The words in blood are a red herring or an unfinished message to the Retrospec app manager called Jim. We do not know what was being written at this time.

The identity of the murderer is likely to be one of those Zee had personally identified. James Barnes, Akira Turner, Eren Jaeger, Leo Valdez, Minato Arisato, and Hitori Togusa. Currently, James Barnes has been arrested and convicted of this murder. However, we are uncertain if he is the true culprit as his arrest was due to a misunderstanding.

All evidence and information has been passed to the legal authorities. If you have doubts, you may await their investigation.

Enemy of justice, your days are numbered. We will continue to work.

Signed,
The Watchers in the Dark

It can rapidly regenerate and crystallize parts or all of the body. So far, that’s it.
