Sealed Night

At the Danha Crime Victim Recovery Support Center's temporary shelter wing, new night counselor Lee Arin was found dead in the morning. It was her first overnight shift, and while she slept in the first-floor duty room-cum-protection room, carbon monoxide filled the space. The water heater operated normally, but every air intake in the building had been sealed during the night. Interrogate the five people surrounding this death and determine whose hands sealed the building.
