Killing Me Softly

Read Also: Killing Me Softly Dialogues Killing Me Softly (Case #33) is thirty-third case of the game. The victim was the lead singer of Lone Roses, Olly Oliver who was poisoned with Strychnine, and was found dead, encased in a drum on the concert stage. The killer was the band's groupie, Mary Lou Hong.

Mary killed Olly because Olly said that they would form a musical band as a duo, but he cheated Mary and stole her music, and later performed it on stage with the Lone Roses. This was the final straw for Mary. After killing the victim, Mary photographed Olly's dead body and kept the photo with herself so that she could always remember what she did.
