The study was fruitless. I couldn't find anything. I decided to take a break and look for Wonder and Bushy.
I found them both at Dahlia's flower display. Wonder was having a conversation with Dahlia while Bushy listed everypony with purple wings. I decided to check in with Bushy to see how many of them he charted. He showed me five different photographs he took of said pegasi. He then told me he asked them all if they went anywhere near the Crystal Brighthouse, to which they all replied, "No." I said that perhaps we'll find out who took the bat later and went over to Wonder.
She told me that she and Dahlia were talking about flowers. I noticed that Dahlia wasn't wearing her scarf, and so I asked her about it. She said she was washing it at the Laundromat. We then continued talking.
Apparently, Wonder was actually from another dimension. She and her girlfriend were chased down by Hyjinx the Cat after she had gone insane from taking a lot of cocaine one day. They found a portal and hopped in thinking they would lose Hyjinx. Unfortunately, along the way, the two got separated and ended up exiting out two different portals. Wonder landed in Zephyr Heights feeling safe but still lonely since her girlfriend wasn't with her. She would later learn that she wasn't safe even there, as she found out that Hyjinx was in this dimension as well. I felt sorry and told her not to worry, since now she's protected.
Just then, we heard a scream. "Uh oh. Seems like somepony got murdered," Dahlia said.
"Come on, guys. Let's see what's going on," I said.
