SECOND INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

Your third Friday in the facility dawns like the last two, where you've historically had a 50-50 shot at not, you know, having someone be murdered somewhere. Needless to say, the atmosphere is probably tense. You've already lost someone, but... is that enough? There's a whole chest of maybe literal pirate gold at stake, here, and for all of you who have derided the motive there's no doubting that money isn't exactly something that nobody out there kills for, right?

The lights of the facility click on to signal the end of nighttime, and one by one you start to wake. Things seem pretty normal as you all leave your rooms, but... didn't you feel this way last week, too?

Even if someone managed to Confuse him into attacking, Piers could still have recalled him! And their bond is strong-I doubt he'd mistake Piers for an enemy!

Alright, alright. [She raises her hands in surrender.] You clearly know more about these types of creatures than I do. But it will still likely come up in the trial.

And I'll refute it again, if I need to. Maybe some of the others will be more understanding of the trainer-Pokemon bond than you.
