Day 10


Detective work.


hi-res

A thought occurred to me today.

"If the top of the chicken looks this bad - I wonder what the bottom looks like."

The top has to deal with the elements and the wasps. The underside only has the moist earth beneath it. The stinkymate and I took a deep breath, and lifted the chicken with the stick.

It didn't last long. As soon as the chicken was elevated, somewhere between 50 to 100 maggots blorped out from the bottom. They were wet, and generally upset at the disturbance. We dropped the chicken back into position, and decided that was enough.

Since we had some extra time, I thought it might be wise to make some inquiries with the playground locals about the past meat disappearances.

This young girl was entirely uncooperative. Personally, I think she was holding back information. I have no evidence to support this claim as of yet.


hi-res

This kid was much more willing to give me answers. I didn't even have to threaten him. His parents weren't around, so I was able to grill him at my leisure.

According to him, none of the neighborhood kids have seen any uberdeer in the vicinity. None of his friends have been stung by wasps. He has no idea where I can find some rotting meat if I were so inclined to be looking.

He seemed honest enough. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
