Of course Snowfire is another great detective, so he'll know what to do.
Sadly, unlike L-L, I haven't determined the answer on the basis of two sets of clues (although L-L claimed he had it on ONE set). So, uh, onto wild intuition. I think our two security guards are innocent, at least of this crime. Would they resort to something as unmanly as pencils? Do they even know what one is?
It is definitely the kind of way a secretary might kill, though. But even more so it's the way a statisitcal analyst might kill- so perhaps DarkCloud?
(Sorry Kalius. Herc complimented my Detective skills, and I had already slowed down the game already, and going to a coin flip would have slowed it down further. Besides, as pointed out, nobody likes the CFO.)
(Oh, and as for the delay, got back home late last night- went down Thursday night and had an interview in NYC. Let's hope I actually get said job.)

Chapter Three
By a tight but finally decisive vote, Kalius was taken to the upper levels and thrown down to his death. Kalius refused to say a word to anyone after the result was announced, and so the bulldozer-proof front doors of the Apolyton building remained closed.
"I'm starting to wonder if this system of ours is going to be of any use at all. What will happen when the doors open? We could've murdered perfectly innocent men", Nuclear Master pondered to his colleague over yet another cup of coffee. "The mere thought makes me feel sorry we don't have any booze here to get hammered."
Vovan nodded, but said: "If we are all murdered, we won't have a chance to worry about that."
"And we can always tell the police they were suicides", Zopperoni said. "That'd be a bit underhanded, though."
"That might work. There was that girl a year or two ago. Remember her? She worked here, I think", gjramsey said. "Jumped down from the roof. That's why it is sealed nowadays."
Nuclear Master was about to ask what the girl's job was when his face turned completely red. He grabbed his throat just like Smiley had done, and collapsed on the floor.
"Poisoned? Again?" Jon Miller said and stared at the prone body.
"The only thing he's been having here was..." Vovan swallowed. "The coffee. But he made it for us! Who could've done it? Why was only he affected?"
"Maybe it's a ghost. A spectre. Of that girl", Jon Miller thought out loud.

Clues in this new murder:
Again, a color is featured--this time red. Perhaps a signal that the prior references to green were nothing more than coincidence? Or an indication of unprofitable activities? Or, a long shot perhaps, but again an avatar clue (Skanky Burns)?
Talk of an old suicide (homicide?), a woman who threw herself from the roof. Perhaps another subtle hint towards a secretary, or a nurse, stereotypical occupations of the fairer sex?
I suspect Hercules is likely being set up; killing Nuclear Master would be too foolish a maneuver if he were really the killer. I suspect my assistant, Tuberski.

What? No, that I cannot do. Refrain from consumption? For how long? Days? I would rather take a chance than starve to death, or die of thirst, thank you very much.

Well, you might just be on to something there, Hercules. Though now I googled for Tubercled, because honestly I did not know that word, and found a grass, named...
Tubercled Spike-rush
If it wasn't for the fact that ol' Spike's already dead...

I must say, Hercules. I mean, I can't gather any clues from the story of poisoning other than it was done through coffee. And you know, coffee, secretary; secretary, coffee. Makes sense to me, though seems almost too simple to be true.
