So... Now my mistake is fixed. *Sigh*

Now I can sleep again.

The translator for this series is a bit new to editing and translating manga, so give him a bit of time to freshen up the quality. You'll see improvements quite fast over the next chapters.

So the case is solved because the perpetrator spilled the beans during questioning with the only incriminating evidence being a strand of fur?
That sure is...convenient. I would accept it if a DNA test is done or something like that.
Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter. Not like the case is the main spotlight of this chapter.

@vangstampede Since we don't see details there might be something about the fur, like it's color or texture. It might be unique enough to narrow it heavily down and then the rest is good old medieval questioning.

Reading back through this chapter it occurred to me... is it possible that Sali can literally see more colors than the magical beasts? We know in real life that many animals (like dogs) have limited color vision and that humans are capable of seeing more colors. At first it looked to me like Sali was lying about seeing the fur as a different color, but she is a human and they are animals... maybe the people of this world haven't yet realized that humans can actually see more colors than animals?

@amaterasunaps That was literally my first thought when she first said that it looked like a totally different color to her. IDK if author intended to show that she really can see more colors or not. That comment afterward could mean "Good thing I'm human cause I could see the hair was a different color," "Good thing I'm human cause I was able to trick them into thinking I saw it as a different color," or "Good thing I'm human cause I don't have a bias against hyenas." I feel like the full meaning may have been lost in translation, but IDK. I'm kind of leaning towards thinking she actually can see more colors cause I don't think it's in her character to accuse a random person of murder because "they were acting suspiciously."

Some humans can see more colors than the rest of us, too, actually, if I remember correctly. So there's some variance even among the same species in the opposite direction of color blindness. It's interesting to think about because you can't even really imagine what a different color would even look like, at best you'd probably just think of some shade mixed from the ones you already know.
