For the cheerfully pessimistic detective!

1. Your client did it.

2. Buying Advanced Thread Analysis means that all threads immediately disappear from the crime scene.

3. The question you need answered most is the one the witness clams up on.

I'm sure more experienced players can add to the list. Care to have a go?

Your client did it and is willing to shoot at you if you get too close to solving it.

As soon as you get Hand-Writing Analysis, the banker will become your PE contact in every city you go to once you do a single favor in each city.

The alibi that all your suspects give you will be for the same person you need to analyze all your evidence.

Oh, Man! I hate that one! Worse, it happens on a favor you need for a hunt!

The alibi that all your suspects give you will be for the same person you need to analyze all your evidence. And it won't be your contact.

How about getting a contact for a skill you have to buy that you don't have... Like getting the barber in Shanghai and the only hair you've ever analysed is the one growing on the back of your hand.

Luckily though, I eventually got hair analysis, but all dreams of learning a skill from Order of Socrates went bye-bye down the potty hole. Here's to another 3 months of trying to get enough skill points to buy it.

1a. When you need money the most your client will turn out to be the guilty one

Your very smart so you rely on evidence then you get a thread from a female person and a thread from a male person and 2 alibi's on tailor, he clams up after the alibis and you can't persuade him cause your very smart so you bribe him and still gives bad answer!
