"The explosives are interesting," he said eyeing them. " But I am more interested in how people think we should proceed. I think we should figure out how these closed rooms have occured as I said. But I am open to ideas."

The group collectively carried the crate of C4 to the cliffside and dumped it in the ocean.
When the group had returned to the foyer, a new object had caught their eye. It was a newspaper--a copy of Bild dated the 28th. It detailed a hit and run that occurred in Germany August 4th, 1987. A mechanic was recently busted for an unrelated crime, and confessed to destroying a car belonging to Friedrich von Brandauer the day after.
… there doesn’t appear to be any new information beyond what the Detektiv had told them earlier. But scrawled on the front of the newspaper in red ink is ‘I KNOW WHO YOU ARE’. It seems like anybody in the room could've had an opportunity to place this on the table.

She stands up straight, and turns towards Christof. "Detektiv, do you care to provide comment? This seems like part of your investigation, is it not?" She loosens her jaw, reading it once again for her understanding, "Regardless, it seems that the killer has an ax to grind with the culprit from this article. Do you all agree?"

“Well, this hardly seems appropriate,” he said, “Are we stooping to threats now, Detektiv? If you’re trying to make me confess, creepy messages aren’t going to cut it. I still had nothing to do with that accident.”

"Ingrid, do you suppose knowing the motives of our killer could help us? Who would you exclude from suspicion if this newspaper article is part of the motive and our killer left this clue?"

I suppose the real question is who the threat is for though, me, or the driver...”

"Well, of course. Mysteries are made up of who, how, and why, and those three questions can lead to each other." Ingrid answered. "The newspaper implies a vendetta against Friedrich, and perhaps our whole family. Unfortunately, I can think of plenty of reasons to despise most of the people gathered here, so I can't say this lets me eliminate any suspects."

"And that is a great question!" Ingrid continued. "Julia is a bit of an outlier, since unlike Albrecht and Harley she was not a von Brandauer. It makes me wonder if our killer is truly choosing their targets, or simply picking whoever is convenient."
"... Considering that, the two of us should try to stay together as much as possible. A witness might be a better defense than a gun."

"Hmm... I suppose we could split off into larger groups, if we really wanted to... I doubt the killer could turn on four sheep at once..." Agnes mumbled to herself, putting a hand on her chin.

Edna seemed to be freaking out a lot over the newspaper, though she couldn't muster up the guts to actually say something. She didn't seem well at all though.
"Ah, Mother?" Agnes walked over to Edna, leaving Erik alone for now. "Are... Are you okay?" She frowned and looked up at Edna, with concerned eyes. "Do... Do you need something to drink?"

Meta nods her head in thought, "Our killer has only gone after us in situations with few witnesses and everything could be the work of only one individual. Though, we should also consider that Albrecht's killer wasn't the same as this serial killer from the night."

Well, I figure its probably directed more at the driver, but it since there are only a few of us connected to this case I can't really rule anything out yet. Although on second thought, the whole reason I'm here is to investigate the hit-and-run, which means I don't know who did it-- although I have my theories," he says, glaring at Friedrich, "so I couldn't have left the note."

"Mr. Harley's death was clearly much more planned, but I think Ms. Julia's was a crime of opportunity, especially given the signs of a struggle. I agree with Ms. Ingrid, we should move in groups of three ideally, pairs at a minimum. Witnesses are important here, I agree.

"Yet your car did," Verrier noted. "Are you really so sure it was stolen by some... random ne'er-do-well? Isn't it far more likely the thief was someone closer to you, someone who had access to wherever the car was being kept?" He was normally quite respectful towards Fritz, due to being a fan of his work. This issue seemed to have upset him somehow, so he was more persistent than usual.
"And I suppose if someone stole a TV from your living room, you'd blame your family first? Because they had the most access to it?" Fritz said, raising an eyebrow at the doctor. "An argument that ludicrous won't drag a confession from anyone."
"Most likely the killer just pulled this stunt to get us at each other's throats," he added, gesturing toward the people holding guns. "They're probably hoping we'll do their work for them. There's no way any of their targets had anything to do with this incident, so discussing this further is a complete waste of time."

"The car wasn't simply stolen though, Mr. Friedrich. A man was killed, and that death was covered up. If we go by my theory, regarding Ms. Julia's death, then the only pre-planned murders so far would be those of Mr. Albrecht and Mr. Harley, both of whom are Brandauers. Obviously the family is being targeted, of that much we can all be certain, but I think my defaced newspaper may shine a light on our motive." the detektive mused before pausing for dramatic effect, keenly aware that the post was dragging on at this point.
"Perhaps the victim in this hit and run is a relative of our killer. Unfortunately we don't know much about this victim, but we can safely assume he was not related to the Brandauers, meaning that only one of the others could have done it. That leaves Miss Mia, Miss Juna, Miss Jolina, Ms. Meta, Dr. Verrier, and of course myself, but I have already demonstrated my own innocence in the most recent killings."

"My father isn't guilty. I know you're still thinking that, but you're dead wrong. He has flaws, sure, but who doesn't? Either way, he's one of the best goddamn men I know, and that belief of mine isn't gonna change."
He let out an indignant huff, clenching his rifle a bit tighter than before.
"... I'm going to get some air in a bit. My head's just... getting all foggy, with all this going on. But... my father isn't guilty. I know that. So stop accusing him. ... Please."
With that, Erik stepped out of the room, rifle still in hand -- still calmly seething, but not noticably upset enough to storm out.

After Erik had left, Verrier turned to Fritz again, not willing to let go. "It's a common enough story. A young adult, not yet owning their own car, takes their parents' one for a joyride without permission. Do you... see where I'm going with this?"
"Yeah, I see exactly where you're going," Fritz replied, his voice growing angry. "Off on a wild, completely pointless goose chase. I'm inclined to believe you left that message there, considering how much you seem to think you know about my family. Either way, unless you have some information that could help us catch the dangerous serial killer we're all currently trapped with, you'd be better off staying silent."

In the foyer: Edna, Agnes, Lynde, Fritz, Cici, Meta, Heinrich, Verrier, Juna, Jolina, Christof
Outside the foyer: Erik, Raphael, Mia, Ingrid
The group in the foyer was getting impatient and nervous. The other four had been gone for far too long. While people had been able to come and go, this was too much cause for concern. The only thing they knew is that the current people in the foyer could completely account for each other's alibis from 6-7 AM.

Ingrid was easy enough to find in the hallway, and she happily announced that Erik and Mia had not left their rooms. Ingrid stood up, deciding to check on Mia.
Spoiler: February 29, 1984
Ingrid verified that the tape she had put on Agnes’ bedroom door was still sealed. Harley’s was sealed too of course. It was a common trick, and her best one. The sight of it gave Ingrid the slightest of hopes. The room was on the second floor, there was no need to worry that the window was climbed through. And yet, there was an impending sense of dread in the air that any trope savvy mystery fan would not be able to shake away. Ingrid opened the door to Agnes' room, breaking the tape...
[Scene Music]
Mia almost looked peaceful in her crumpled form on the floor. One could even mistake her for being alive if not for the blood pooling around her head. But when they checked her pulse, her body was already cooling to the touch. She was dead.

The room was empty. The window was open however. Looking outside, you could see that one could use the roof of the porch to break their fall as they head outside the house. The dent in the snow on the porch roof seems to indicate Erik may have done just that.

"Dr. Verrier, I'm sorry to ask again, but would you please examine the body? I can't seem to determine a cause of death this time." he says, pulling the smaller medical examiner's case out.
"Someone needs to go check on Mr. Erik and Mr. Raphael immediately, we need to make sure there aren't any other victims, let alone suspects."
"And as for you Ms. Ingrid," he says, turning towards her, "we saw you open the supposedly sealed door, but you are the only one here. If you don't have some explanation, I'm afraid I'll have to place you under arrest..."

"... Yeah. There's an explanation here. It's so damn simple too."
