You decide to leave and see the next suspect. But first you want to
call your friend Dr. Porolitz. He knows how to determine the cause
of death better than you do. He also knows how to arrange for the
respectful burials of good friends.
You say a prayer for Tim. This is the only time you feel glad that
someone doesn't have a family. Quickly you leave.
"Whoever did this--" you say in your head. Then you shake
that same appendage. You don't finish your vow. You know revenge
caused Tim's death. You want to put an end to the endless
circle.
You slowly rise up from where you were crouching by Tim's body. You
survey the room, seeing if anything seems out of place. Except for
the dead man, all is well. Your eyes draw up to the ceiling. No
ropes or anything like that. You keep a handy bottle of powder within
reach all the time, being a seasoned detective, and you brush it over
the box for the Klockmon Diamond. Nothing!
