"No more secrets" is so confusing...

Remember you logged the arcane sample from Vorrk? Basically Mai’s initial excuse is that she was touching the charr, who had been part of adding the ingredients that caused the explosion. Each of the representatives added individual ingredients, but the culprit would have been the only one to handle them all (theoretically).
Now that Marjory had samples from each of them (you had to log Vorrk’s because he was dead, the others could arrive and provide it then), she could fine-tune it to only look for those specific samples instead of just general arcane residue. She states that she recalibrated the box to look for the combination of ingredients. The representatives would have been cleared because they only handled their own, but Mai was revealed because the box detected them all.

The tweaked scanner settings pointed her out.
We brought back all of the suspects. Each one of them had been exposed to just one part of the magic that was used to cause the fire to explode and and kill the captain. She tweaked the scanner then had us (the player) re-scan everyone with the new settings. This showed that each one had handled a part of the bomb but only one part each. When we scanned Mai, the scanner showed that she had been exposed to all the different parts. Had she been innocent she would only have been exposed to the same part the Charr was.

Beaten to the punch while trying to figure out the spoiler tag.

I bypass such trivialities when possible :P
