    The man in blue raises an eyebrow. "She's not in here. No duh. Besides, you know that you can't ask me that question. Privacy, you know? Actually, I think I would like you to leave now."

    "Bu..."

    "No matter. Just. Go."

    You walk away, still unable to quite piece together what happened in the house.

    OOC NOTE: All the clues that you *need* to piece together the thing have been given .

    IC: You boot up your PC. 'tis time to talk to the murderer. Over the past few years, you two, the murderer and the detective, have grown quite close together. The murderer would, on many occassions, kill people and taunt you over the web with it, daring you to solve it.

    Of course, you solved most of them. MOST OF THEM.

    A conversation box suddenly appears in your screen. It's the murderer. "So, Mr. Detective!" the murderer says brightly. "have you figured it out yet?"

    Suddenly the murderer goes offline. Few minutes later he appears again. You smirk. "Battery problems again? Forgot to pay the electricity bill?"

    "Shut. Up." The murderer replies. "So, did you solve it yet?"

    "It was impossible for anyone to sneak inside the house even before the cops came," you reply. "How the heck did you..."

    The murderer laughs. "I don't know, magic I guess."

    I still think I solved it with the ADT guy, I just didn't ask all the right questions.

    I'm not sure what other solutions there are.

    It could be done by the ADT guy, but that would be too easy. Therefore I shall give you... A major hint. At no point during the night of Brown`s death did the secuirty system disengage. The culprit was able to get into the house without that.

    You might then go to say something like “Mr. Brown simply forgot to close a window or something.” So I will state that all the windows were closed. You may even say that the murderer bribed the ADT guy to not install a detecror in a certain window. No such thing happened.

    I do believe I has been stumped.

    1. It was not a self-inflicted death or accidental death.
    2. It was not the wife.
    3. There's no one else in the house.
    4. It was not the obvious suspect, the ADT guy, who is the only one I can think of who can sneak in and out of the house when the security system is armed.
    5. There is the unresolved problem of why the wife did not wake up during the struggle.
    6. These people are all human, this isn't one of those mind-screw problems where the dead person is actually a fish.
    7. It was no one that the victims knew.

    As such, and without any other firm leads, I am not sure what kind of questions to ask here.

    There`s another hint in your short conversation with the murderer himself.

    Are the window locks electrical?

    Edit,: No, wait, thats not likely, why put a computer chip lock on a poxy window?

    Ok what about the sensors are they battery powered or run off the power mains?

    Ooh I just thought of something, was Mr Brown on medication?

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
