Sitting in his office, Izei pulled the requested files: Autopsy records for the Federation Security agent as well as the Intel agent. He pulled both files up and read them over, several times, just skimming. Then he began looking them over with a careful eye. He started with the Security agent, looking for cause of death, injury details, forensic findings, anything that might give him the kind of information he wanted - information about their killer.

The FedSec agent was killed by a single blow from a bladed weapon, a knife as the object was found still in the body of the deceased. There was indication of a particular angle to the wound to specify a right or left handed assailant; although the blade itself was designed for throwing. But to bring down a full grown human male with a single throw would be… impressive, to say the least. Unless, as was the case, the blade entered the subject’s back, sliding between vertebrae, and severing the spinal cord completely. Death would have been instantaneous.

The forensics on the body showed nothing that was out of the ordianary except for one thing: the clown makeup the deceased agent wore had two DNA samples in it. His, and one Rudolfo Mangiani. A file search would show that Mangiani was a professional circus performer and clown with many years of experience in that particular entertainment arena.

With a throw like that, either the killer was extremely lucky, or an expert. Aasrel knew if he attemted to throw a knife at somebody, it would be a miracle if it hit the target, let alone a shot that so perfectly severed the spine. He took note of the cause of death, in detail, as well as the name of the circus performer and that the performer’s DNA was found in the makeup the deceased wore at the time of death.

He moved on then to the intelligence agent. He searched the autopsy report for the same pieces of information, except this time, he also looked for similarities between the two.
