Hiding in plain sight then, you mean. [they seem pleased with her assessment.] That's smart. Your station didn't have things like this, did it?

[outsidebones]

No, it did not.

[she chews on her lip.]

Then you think it wise? It is obviously difficult to plan when I do not yet know the particulars of what I will be accomplishing. I have a sense these housekeeping items may wind up as distractions in some way, which is not the effect I want to achieve, but can be mitigated if my choices are banal.

[guestservices]

I do think it's wise. You may use this first week as a test, in theory, to see what your limitations are before proceeding with more calculated decisions.

[outsidebones]

Then that is what I will do. There are one or two I feel a bit wary of, but I will not go obviously for suspicious types.

[guestservices]

A sound strategy. You've participated in events like this before, so you have an advantage in knowing what people may or may not hide.

[outsidebones]

Mm. I do, though I would think they will quickly learn not to hide evidence in their rooms if someone is in there on Thursday night.

[guestservices]

You would be surprised what people leave behind even when dealing with murders.

[outsidebones]

Not entirely surprised, but I take your point. It is possible there is no time to find a better hiding place.

[guestservices]

Time is of the essence, as you know. Look at what just happened with Sieghart's outfit. That was an item hidden in his room.

[outsidebones]

...True. We'll see how it plays out this week, but someone else may think to hide something in there.

The odds I'll select correctly on my first attempt are low, but even the absence of a match says something useful.

[guestservices]

It gives you a starting point which is more than you had before. Not all evidence is obvious evidence, after all.
