Lt. Lynch washed the last of the tar from her hands and turned, putting her fists on her hips.  "It sounds like he's gone a long way to cover everything up."  She squinted her eyes together, and chewed on her lip for a moment and then said, "Also, this isn't the kind of information that my superiors would be happy I'm sharing, but that name sounds very familiar.  I'd have to check the records to be sure, but I think that's the name of the man who took the investigation over from the Laelith defender's guild.  He's the senior scribe and chief of the library over at the academy, isn't he?"<br/><br/>She moved to the couch where her gear was stored and lifted her sword belt.  "It sounds an awful lot to me like this is more than coincidence.  Laelith is a constant swamp of shifting alliances and power struggles between the guilds, and it sounds like Linfei is using the power struggles between the different guilds to get away with murder.  I..."<br/><br/>She paused and then turned to face Ylene, and for a moment she looked apologetic, "Listen, this may not matter to you, but this could be very big for my career.  I could even probably get Arnell out of the bit of the sticky situation he's in if you're right.  I'm going to ask you to take me along and let me arrest him if this is true.  Having an official member of the Laelith defender's with you gives you some legitimacy as well as shows that we aren't going to just let murders go unsolved in this city."
