Going Out Loud

Bang, bang, into the roof!

**Going Out Loud** is the 8th case in Island Investigations, the 3rd case to occur in Matnette Industries, as well as the 391st case overall.

## ***Plot***

We go to the factory and found out that this explosion was used to kill Annalee, we then discuss with Kim which was the first one to report the explosion. He only told us that the barell content was created in a laboratory not far from here so now we’re going there. We also unlocked a phone that we found at the crime scene and it turned out is Annalee’s. We sent it to the police lab and meanwhile we investigate the factory lab Kim told us about. We found a torn paper and a faded document. We put the paper in one place and saw it’s a letter from Kim adressed to a worker called Eric Hartman, to come for tonight at the factory. We decided to go and talk to him. After this, we unfaded the document and saw it was a contract to a certain Stan Voiljka. Eric told us he came here because he needed to check something in the factory. After this, we talked with Stan and told us Kim hired him for some experiments at the factory. After this we go to the lab and Julia said that the killer left some biscuits crumbs on the victim after killing her, we note this down and go to see Nicholas, who says the victim was earning messages from an unknown number saying drive me to the factory and I’ll welcome you with a surprise. She told him to drive himself there since he got a driver license. Noel then came in and said that after the message Annalee was texting the killer that she don’t want to go there. We then write down these things about our killer and recap, while recaping, we got a fire alarm triggering at the factory.

We went to the factory to investigate the fire alarm, and it turns out that there’s been a small fire occuring inside Kim’s office. We decide to check the office to make sure everything is alright after the fire. Everything looks clean, but we also found some other evidence, such as a memory card. We sent it to Nicholas and he told us that this memory card contains the footage recorded a few seconds before the murder, which caught Annalee arguing with a businessman we met years ago : Albert Sailor. We go to discuss with Albert what the arguing was about, and it turns out that Annalee accidentally caught some private conversations between him and Kim. After we decide to investigate again the factory, where we found some rests of the barrel used to kill Annalee, another security camera, and a list of the workers and investors, and on the list, there was the name of Omar Barrack, the politician we met back in the murder of Mick Dagger. We talk to Omar and he said that he’s been friends with Kim from long ago, but when we mentioned Annalee’s name, he said he never met her. After we investigated him, we sent the camera to Madigan and collected a sample of a biege on a part of the barrel with the explosive content and sent it to Karen. Karen said that the substance turned out to be face cream, and that it said that in the components, she found DNA of a male. Knowing that our suspects are all males, we note this as killer’s profile and move to Madigan. He says that the footage got a fight between Annalee and Kim. We went to talk with Kim and he said she’s been exposing some of the factories future plans, that were restricted to public. We return to the station and then we tell Emma our discovers, but then, Jordan came and said that Stan and Erik are arguing inside the laboratory.

## *Killer and Motive*

The Killer turned out to be Kim.

There were urban legends about some dark secrets in Kim's factory, which is why Annalee went to go in there to take a look. She sneaked in after all the workers left and started a live recording for her fans. What she didn't know, however, was that Kim also stayed there to have another look to see if everything's fine. He was walking into one of the production facilities, and he bumped into Annalee in the dark. Kim pushed her in shock, causing her to fall on one of the switches, which made a crane drop an explosive barrel down on Annalee. It exploded instantly due to it being made out of cheap material.

Judge Sakura sentenced Kim to 20 years old with a chance of parole in 15.

## ***Gears of Crime (3/5)***

After arresting Kim, we take one more look around his office and found out that Kim has an adress to a building which is used to make weapons. We tell our discoveries to Emma and she told us to go to that adress and find clues about its connection with Krause.
