Detective Loki had had a tip-off about some alleged criminal activity at this address. He scouted the area briefly, listened and observed then went up to the door and knocked on it authoritatively.
"Thank you but no," he politely refuses the offer of a drink.
Being a regular human - although a decent detective - he does have some suspicions and he is on alert but he's not getting any extra sense of anything too dangerous just yet. His skills lie in his determination and not always an immediate instinct. He's often gone off the track, only to circle around to the correct conclusion by never giving up.
Soma shrugs a little and sets both glasses down on the low coffee table in front of himself, before sitting down. "Soma Cruz. And you, Detective?" Still the picture of cordiality, and visibly relaxed. Either this one's really good, or he really didn't do anything.
He picks up one of the cups and takes a sip, looking across the gap. "You can sit down if you like, or wander about and examine things. I'm afraid there isn't much to see, though - I've only just moved in." And it's true - the place still has that new apartment smell of carpet glue and industrial cleaners. If he's been up to anything nefarious, the blood was probably still fresh on the ground.
Soma shrugs a little. "Sure. Not much else to see, though - just the bathroom and bedroom." He stands, carrying one of the mugs of tea, and leads the way towards one of the two doors that don't lead out into the hallway.
The bathroom is pretty much your standard arrangement. Tub with shower, toilet, sink, medicine chest with mirror, and lights. There are fresh towels in the rack, paper where it's supposed to be (and the package it came in in the waste bin, supporting his claim that he just moved in). Fairly high-end shampoo and conditioner, soap, and a back brush. Nothing much to see there, though the medicine chest is slightly open. Inside, if he decides to look, he'll find a bottle of pills that claim to be for anemia. Recent fill date, several refills.
If Loki does decide to snoop, he'll notice Soma doesn't seem particularly bothered by it.
He does open the cabinet door further to inspect - but not touch - the contents. He takes mental note of everything he sees and moves on, letting Soma lead the way again.
The bedroom is much like the rest of the apartment - newly furnished and fairly clean. The bed isn't made; apparently the occupant isn't too worried about the small stuff. There's a bin by the bed with some bloodstained tissues, and a few drops on the pillowcase as well. No wounds obvious on his face - maybe he had a nosebleed?
There's nothing under the bed - not even dustbunnies, which isn't surprising, since the rest of the place is pretty much new.
The first real oddity will show up in the dresser, where there are... not nearly enough clothes for a person to change on a daily basis. In fact, there only seems to be a couple suits of pajamas and another, single copy of what he's wearing now, minus the coat and boots.
Also in the bedroom is a small computer desk holding a laptop, with a password entry screen showing. There's a fairly standard office type chair sitting by the desk, and that's about it.

It served the twofold purpose of keeping Soma in sight and actually getting a look around.
