[Day 1] Investigation Phase

Ugh, fiiiiiine, I'll tell you about my night.
But I ain't no snitch!
I spent the night in the area around the Christmas Tree, so I saw a lot of people who can confirm that, I don't need to tell you who.
But I did see the late Space Dandy a few times last night, that's what you wanna know about, right?
I saw him going to the Hamster Wheel, then later going to the Vending Machine Hall, and finally I saw him going to the Printing Press, but this time he was off his leash!
Don't know what that's about, but now I've shared my testimony, so you can all get off my ass!

Those marvelous gardening shears Dandy has, ☆ is there anything like that missing from the Arboretum or Botany Lab? ★
Does the beekeeper outfit in the beehive have any signs of use? Any blood or anything like that on it?

You find some gardening shears in both rooms but without having counted them on a previous night you can't tell if either room is missing any.
Any other marvelous things at the crime scene, or details we might have missed?

The beekeeper outfit doesn't have any blood on it.
There's no way to wipe the decontamination logs after use is there?

You enter the piss filled seal room once more and take a really good look at the crime scene. The tube is smashed though at about waist height, leaving a gap of about three or so feet in between the remaining tubes connected to the wall and ceiling. Space Dandy's corpse is stuffed into the lower tube, doubled over with his butt downward and facing away from the door. The remaining space in the lower tube is completely filled with piss. There is some piss dripping from the lowest parts of the upper tube, but the highest parts don't appear to have piss on them.

If the decontamination logs could be wiped it would require a role power or special item to do it. You don't see any way to do it using the console in the room.
Gday phone booth mate. Is the gash on Dandy's neck a closer match to the jagged glass on the lower part of the tube, or does it seem to be a cleaner cut?
Is the level of piss high enough that the lower tube would've been filled without dandy's body inside? (i.e. is the top of the smashed lower part of the tube higher than the water level?)

The cut across Dandy's neck is rough, and a good match for a piece of broken tube glass.
The level of piss in the lower tube is high enough that you couldn't add anymore without it overflowing.
I continue to sniff.
The piss.
The piss.

You walk back into the Thalassic Seal room and take a sniff. In a fit of rage you rush over to Space Dandy and smack him in the back of the head. You go to take another swing but Gray restrains you and escorts you out of the room.

"☊⏃⌰⋔ ⎅⍜⍙⋏."
Is Dandy facing towards or away from the entrance of the room?
Check if the shattered glass matches the shape of the chair and if so from which direction?

Dandy is facing away from the entrance.
The tube is broken clean through, with the top and bottom halves no longer touching. You pick up Draku's gamer chair and do a practice swing towards the broken area, noticing that it is a little wider than the chair is.

Good afternoon.
I'm Sunday, a humble contestant like anyone else here. Rest assured that I've kept myself up-to-date - Mr. Dandy's passing is truly unfortunate. Though I may be late to arrive, I'll do all I can to bring his murderer to justice.
That said, I apologize for my prolonged absence. I'm prevented from straying too far from my dorm throughout the night, and I've found myself... busy, as of late. My actions at the seal, and my intent to tune the distortion walking around - the one mumbling about the "National Spamton" - were made from a place of uncharacteristic desperation, I would say. I welcome any concerned parties to monitor me the following night.
Though nothing I did was particularly fruitful... oh well. Another failure to note down and learn from.
Incidentally, I don't disagree with Miss Marvelous's philosophy. I, too, have struggled with the question she posed. Not everyone has a future, so should we not protect the weak for their own good... I preached something to that effect once.
I'd say I don't believe that anymore - that the strong should band together to help the weak, and everyone should have the right to their own self-determination - but change, after years of iron will, is difficult to brook. Frivolous as that girl is, she's found her own path to paradise. Would that I were able to reach the Marvelous Dimension myself...

In any case, it's marvelous to see someone with an open heart win Mr. Tenna's contest - I'd heard of reformed members of the Dreamjolt Troupe who have overcome the influence of negative memoria, but it seems I departed to bed too early to watch his arrangements play out.
...well, I'd prefer that Miss Marvelous didn't call me Sunny, but you seem to have all made that decision on my behalf. Is it appropriate to call her Marv, or Marve?
Is there anywhere obvious in Draku's room where someone could've been hiding i.e. under the bed, a wardrobe - check those places for anything unusual if so
