With the spirit relaxing, Theo felt like he wasn't in danger of losing her to her own mind like he had over the phone. It could get hairy to tell a spirit about why they were a spirit and why they were attached to a place. Some refused to take it in, others flew off the handle. It was a sliding scale of human emotions backed with the otherworldly power of the truly intangible melded with magic.
“No, you didn't die here,” Theo answered her, although he paused and corrected himself, knowing he couldn't outright deny it, but he didn't think it was likely. “Or, nothing indicates that you did. There's other things beyond living in a space that might tie you to it. You seem... too stable, here, for it to have been traumatic.”
He knew where the body was found, and a solid guess that it was where she'd been killed too. There were some uncomfortable parallels to other unsolved cases, but he wasn't jumping to conclusions if he could help it. It might be a bit of a lucky break if he could somehow get the ghost to remember something about her killers.
