The hunt for the ink killer
Polly Kirchhoff arrived late at the scene of the crime. One of her chickens had escaped again and she had had to search for it before it fell into the fox's clutches. "Not a pretty sight," muttered her colleague P. Chizza von Lederstein. "She was strangled, and afterwards he rammed the fountain pen down her throat. Probably it was quick and she didn't notice too much of it," he continued. "Who found her," asked Polly. "Her friend," replied Von Lederstein. "She didn't show up for an appointment, and since she's always reliable, the lady got suspicious and went straight to the apartment with the super," von Lederstein replied.
"Do you smell that," asked Polly. "He must have used scented ink. Those scented cartridges were around when I was in school. That stuff hasn't been on the market for ages." "Nostalgic, I suppose," replied von Lederstein. "But to me, while it smells sweet, it also smells distinctly aquatic." "Not aquatic, though," Polly agreed. "That's the sort of nasty aquatic my ex-husband wears. Phtaloblue by Tauer. The calone is so pervasive on him that all you can smell in the dissection room is that perfume. The cadavers can't compete with that. This is sweeter, softer. Though already with a bit of salt and a hint of sea, but here I sniff out a fine amber note and Opoponax. That's really nice Just a little sweet. OK, the murder's not nice. I must have expressed myself wrong."
"True, now that you mention it," replied von Lederstein. "It's really not typically aquatic. This crazy vet I used to date always liked to wear Cool Water Woman. This ink here doesn't smell like that at all. But tell me. Doesn't your boyfriend smell funny these days? I haven't noticed anything like that on him yet, but it's not just from work at the zoo, the way he always smells. Reminds me of animals and their habitats, but sometimes the scents are also really beautiful and special."
"That's right, oh my god," Polly cringed. "Yeah, he's had an intern for a few weeks. It's some perfume geek who ordered a Discovery set from Zoologist. That's a Canadian perfume house. They employ creative minds like Prin Lomros and Dr. Ellen Covey. They always use my boyfriend as a test subject. You mean that kid, what's-his-name, Jeremy, I think? He's an influencer. That's why he always has perfume samples with him everywhere, because he's introducing fragrances on the internet and acting like he's permanently on coke or speed."
"Hmm, drugs and the perfume samples. Could fit," agreed P. Chizza. "Let's go search his apartment and see if we can find any evidence. All that's missing is the motive.
Fortunately, it didn't take long with the confession. And the motive of the "Ink Killer" was quickly established. She had been echauffeiert, as he spoke in his videos about women. There was a heated argument and, in the aftermath, the pen landed in her jugular. "Young people," von Lederstein muttered. "How they always have to react like that. I'm sure it's not the perfume, it relaxes me." With a smile, he fished a bottle of Chanel Egoiste out of his man's handbag and treated himself to two sprays. "Me too," Polly counters. "And despite all the cruelty today. I like this squid. It's a bit different, if it has to be a sea scent. You just have to like it sweet."
Inspired by Nele Neuhaus.
Many thanks to Heikeso for the sample.
