Throughout the night, all the guests continuously explored the hallways. Although everyone made it aware to the rest of the guests that they felt the murders were over and everything was safe and back to normal; clearly they lied for everyone else’s benefit, or perhaps their own.
No room in the manor was a more popular choice for an investigation than the Library. In fact, it was such a popular choice that it made it difficult to get in and investigate without being seen by other sleepless guests. For the Children of the Lord though, that wasn’t a huge issue.
Seeing so many sheep wandering around and lost without the light of the Lord to guide their hearts, the religious zealots started preaching to whoever crossed their path.
While sneaking into the Library to glance at books, Colonel Mustard bumped into Mrs. Ho and before he could even excuse himself for not watching where he was going, Mrs. Ho began to tell the Colonel all about the kingdom of heaven and the everlasting joy that will come from accepting the Lord into his heart.
Not even putting up a struggle, Colonel Mustard accepted as he had many things in his past he was worried about or shouldered a burden from. And as soon as he had accepted the message, he was so excited and elated that he dashed off to share the word with someone else. And unfortunately for Debra Hill, that someone was her.
“REPENT CHILD, SAVE YOUR MORTAL SOUL!” Shouted Coronel Mustard as he ran after Debra Hill with one hand on a Bible and the other raised to the heavens. “It’s not too late, you can be at peace.”
Fearing for her safety, Debra Hill dashed quickly down the hall and hid in the study. Fumbling for a light switch, she bumped into something and heard a sharp intake of breath.
“AHHHHHHHH! THUNK, CRACK!”
Two sickening sounds followed the scream and it sounded almost like someone had taken a baseball bat to a melon. Fumbling around in the dark, Debra Hill found something and picked it up. Still very frightened and concerned, she frantically tried to find the light switch.
Click.
Colonel Mustard and a few other guests were now standing in the doorway. Since he had found the light switch and turned it on, they were all shocked and angered by the site they saw.
Debra Hill was standing over the lifeless body of Madame Rose holding a still bloody wrench.
Freezie – Madame Rose – Town Mason- Has been murdered with the wrench.
“It wasn’t me, I didn’t do it!” proclaimed Debra Hill. “I bumped into someone in the dark and was looking for the light switch when I found the wrench. I swear!”
But it wouldn’t have mattered what she said, the other guests’ vacant looks made it obvious they weren’t buying Debra Hill’s story. Disgusted and upset with how everyone was looking at her, she headed back up stairs to bed.
Angered by this senseless act, a few guests began to pray for Madame Rose’s soul as they left together and headed for the library. Curious about this, Yvette, the maid decided to try to keep an eye on them.
The whole group entered the library and he could hear them having a lengthy discussion as to which book could hold the war bonds’ location and key. Suddenly, she could make out very excited voices. She would even swear that she heard a few “Praise Jesus” and “Hallelujah’s”! Convinced that they must have found the right book, she began to open the door and search for the light switch. Throwing it on though, she discovered no books missing and no visible guests.
A little suspicious, she decided it was time for to go and explore the books. After choosing just one title and not finding what she’d hoped, she heard someone begin to speak right behind her.
“Join us child and we will share the bounty of the Lord and the war bonds with you. All you have to do is accept the Lord and savior into your heart.” And next to her, the rest of the Kingdom of Heaven members stood up from behind the desk.
“Thanks, but no thanks.” said Yvette, the maid. As she headed for the door, her friend and a few other guests entered in behind them.
Realizing that recruiting for a Lord was now probably a moot point for the rest of the night, the group left the Library and headed to bed. As they walked away Yvette, the maid, over heard them saying something about coming back tomorrow for the key and note, now that they know where it is.
“Is that true?” asked Professor Plum?“ Did they find the note and key?”
“I honestly don’t know,” replied Yvette. “I wasn’t in the room when they were looking. But, it doesn’t matter anyway. My friend and I here would love to talk to you about something. Let’s go have a chat.” And with that, the last four guests left the library, and the manor became eerily quiet for the remainder of the night.
With that, Day 5 begins. As you can tell, there was at least someone last night who located the right book title. Unfortunately, with the constant activity in the library, they were unable to remove the note and key at that time. So, with that in mind, you may want to keep that information to yourselves for the time being. Also this day will get into some interactive choices amongst some of you, so be prepared. Enjoy all!
