"That wont be necessary, enough traces of Julie's scent is here in the hallway that I will be able to separate hers from Rachel's. Your's will be even easier as you are so close." It didn't matter why he was in there, just that he admitted that he was. If they did not already know who it was he would have been marked out of the running for a suspect. From his demeanor alone she could tell he was not the sort that would be able to harm anyone, let alone kill.
Stepping through the girl's bedroom door she paused a moment. Taking a few deep sniffs she could tell the her scent was definitely over twelve hours old. She spotted a hamper for dirty clothes, yet did not go to it directly. Instead she opted for the girls pillow. It had not been used but it would hold the truest scent, even if the girl showered before bed she knew no cosmetics would be used, short of night creams and the like.
Lifting the one that was used regularly she brought it close to her face, not that she needed to really, but it would serve to better collect the smell. With her experience with Gabriel she knew people didn't often like to know they were being smelled. So she was quiet as her lips parted and she took in a few more deep whiffs. Allowing her Jacobson's organ to properly gather the scent.
Turning on her heal, once she placed the pillow back exactly where she had taken it from, she faced the boy. Offering encouragements was not something she was good at. "I will find her, no matter what. I will not rest until I do." Not that she needed to rest, but there weren't many that knew that little fact.
