I was a complete jerk, I treated those society rejected harshly, my old man would have kicked my ass up and down the kingdom just for even thinking about bullying a Faunus; so what would he do when he finds out I did bully them. But that's in the past now considering I'm dating a Rabbit Faunus so is beautiful inside and out, it only took her kicking my backside, Now I've gained knowledge of the secrets of several people but not the dark and evil secrets that could harm a person. But those secrets that people don't want others to find out about out of potential embarrassment; Weiss is a gamer, Velvet is from Australis, Yatsuhashi is a baker, Penny's a robot thought we wouldn't notice; Sun Wukong has a stamp collection and there me: Cardin Winchester what's my secret you asked, simple I'm a detective. So you're probably asking how am I the big jerk on Beacon campus a detective? Well I'll start with my first case at Beacon.
It was an average day at Beacon Academy and Cardin was just lazing around in the sun, it warming his old gunmetal grey armour just nicely. He was just as lazy as a sunbaking lizard as his girlfriend Velvet said. Suddenly a commotion was heard in the courtyard, so Cardin being the typical student he was went over to look at what had drawn the attention of. Around the stairs leading to the CCT Tower.
"What's going on?" Cardin asked approaching as School security was pushing the students back. Cardin managed to get a quick glimpse of the attraction: A dead body, a student was murdered and Cardin looed concerned
"No way" Cardin said looking around before taking off to his dorm.
'I might need that for this situation' he thought reaching his dorm while passing his girlfriend, 'seriously how did I get a second year student as a girlfriend, I guess she needed it after the team she spent her first year with dissipated' he mused opening the door
"Hey Cardin what's up?" Russel his best friend and partner asked.
"Something big" Cardin said removing his blazer and pulled out a long black tweed army coat.
"Where are you going?" Russel asked as Cardin threw his blood red tie on the bed and took off.
"That was odd." The mohawked Knight shrugged going back to this homework.
Once Cardin got back to the crime scene he noticed that the body was still lying there, probably so the police could investigate it; Cardin somehow wondered why Beacon didn't have their own investigational unit.
"Alright Didi, let's get to work" Cardin said as he pulled out a small rectangular looking thing which opened up to reveal a hovering laptop looking thing. This was D.I.D.I the Digital Detective Interface, a intelligent investigative tool Cardin developed to help him with his detective work.
"First things first crime scene sketch. Make a holographic copy use a 10cm square grid, detail the blood pooling body positioning and any evidence around teh body" Cardin instructed as the floating computer went to work, it took detailed scans of the area that was taped off, while Cardin stayed outside the area, Didi scanned the area, the pooling blood had indicated that victim was attack a couple of hours ago, however
"Cardin! My scans indicate this young woman is still alive" Didi said pausing his scan.
"Wait what?" Cardin said walking into the area, avoiding the pooling blood and felt the girl's neck "Son of a bitch! Inform the medical staff ASAP!" he roared activating his aura as to slow the bleeding down
"Warning, Jane Doe has lost 30% of her overall blood volume further blood lose will result in loss of life" Didi said
"No shit!" Cardin said as three medics approached with Ms Goodwitch
"Warning Vice-Headmistress incoming, advise to depart the crime scene as to not get in trouble with the administrative personal" Didi said
"Shut up Didi" Cardin groaned asked Goodwitch arrived. "Good afternoon miss"
Beacon Academy Interrogation Facility/Detention Centre
"So Mr Winchester what were you doing at the scene of Miss Peridot's death?" Goodwitch asked
"Saving her life, my device detected a faint heartbeat, so using my aura I stabilised her" Cardin replied before Goodwitch nodded
"That part I understand, the part I don't get is what you were doing at the scene of Miss Peridot's..." Goodwitch said
"Assault" Cardin said
"Peridot's Assault?" Goodwitch asked
"I decided to look into the matter myself, as a way to redeem myself after all the bullying I did" Cardin explained
"Very well, however I know you're father's not exactly the proudest father" Goodwitch said
"No, in fact he and mum's disappointed in me, so I thought I could redeem myself as I said" Cardin said looking depressed
"Never mind that, what did your thing find?" Goodwitch asked
"I haven't had a chance to look at the recreation, but Didi said that Miss Peridot lost thirty percent of her blood supply, I'm guessing a blow to the head, something heavy and reinforced with Aura, next something had to have been administered to disrupt her Aura" Cardin said
"An Aura suppressant, but that is only used in hospital when they are operating on people with strong Aura capability so they can work safely without the body trying to heal themselves" Goodwitch said
"So question is, which student had a grudge against Miss Peridot and had access to an Aura Suppressant?" Cardin asked
