Who: Roger Davies and Cade Warrington.
What: Examining Dmitri Zurlo's personal effects.
When: November 1, 2003 a bit after noon.
Where: St. Mungo's morgue.
Rating: PG-13 for bodies, bodies everywhere and possible language

Death didn't particularly disturb Cade, but like any other wizard, he didn't seek it out if he didn't have to. Of course, his chosen profession exposed him to it more often than the average person, but that was something he accepted as part of the job. A job that he was only now being allowed to perform in his full capacity as an Auror. He hadn't wished death on Harry Potter, but Cade didn't bother denying the satisfaction he felt at finally have a proper case to work on.

Eager to get to work, Cade arrived in the alley next to Purge and Dowse, Ltd with a quiet pop just a few minutes afternoon. He expected Davies would be a long shortly, but in the meantime, Cade took a drink from the small vial of Invigoration draught he had tucked into his cloak. That should be enough to keep him going until he go off shift tonight.

"Back to the crime scene then," was Roger's suggestion, though he didn't seem to enthusiastic about it. They'd already been over it, and they hadn't found anything that would have scared the man to death. Roger knew he wanted to look over Zurlo's whole file anyway. See if the man had a weak heart to begin with, or if it was normal and they really were looking for something terrifying.

"I agree it's hard to believe. Any magic dark enough to kill someone should leave something behind," Roger said, and he was disappointed in the lack of information too. Roger reached for the box that the clerk brought over. "And there was no trace of magic on his personal affects either?" he asked to clarify.

"Back to the crime scene," Cade confirmed. Roger might not have been enthused about returning to the crime scene in the Department of Mysteries, but the thought actually improved Cade's mood a bit. Knowing the results of Zurlo's autopsy might help them look at the scene in a different light. He said as much and added, "I'll take another look at the inventory of what was in the room where Zurlo was found and find out what the items do. It might give us more perspective." Though it might take a while as he wasn't sure all the items had been properly catalogued yet.

"No magic on his person," the clerk confirmed, gaze flitting between the two Aurors. "However, there were traces of a potion in his system. Polyjuice, I believe. It's all in the report."

Cade nodded at this. It had been suspected - there were very few ways Zurlo could have gotten into the Ministry after hours otherwise - but it was good to have confirmation. "All right. There's nothing more for us here, I believe." He looked at the clerk whose head was already shaking 'no'. "Then, let's not waste any more time."

"Sounds like a good idea. You can see if we missed anything," Roger said agreeing with Cade's plan of him over over the crime scene and the inventory. Cade wasn't biased by the information that Roger had investigated already.

He nodded as the clerk answered his questions. "Alright, thanks. If we have any more follow up questions, we'll be back," he said shrinking the files down so he could put them in his pocket.

"Yeah, we're done here. Thank you for your time," Roger said his final words to the clerk, and gestured to Cade that they were ready to leave, and Roger turned back towards the hall.
