Just my first attempt to create an investigator that can both investigate and not die by the first encounter...

Considering that your investigate and fight skills are both 4 and the number of cards in your deck that boost each of those stats is roughly equal, I think Mind Over Matter is rarely going to be useful. Both stats are likely to be the same and your fight might even be higher than your investigate at times. I would suggest replacing them with Preposterous Sketches since you already have multiple weapons to fight with. If you really want a combat event for your hunch deck I'd go with "I've Got a Plan" since it will do an extra 1-3 damage. It costs 1 rather than being free but its much more likely to be relevant and often lets you kill an enemy in 1 action rather than 2-4 actions which saves 1-3 actions to compensate for not being fast.

I would also consider replacing Seeking Answers especially if you are playing in a 3 or 4 player party. Preposterous Sketches for 0 resources normally costs 4xp to get 2 copies of the level 2 version. No Stone Unturned or Logical Reasoning for 0 resources is also pretty good. I might even consider Connect the Dots since it gets you 2 clues for 2 resources and is a fast so doesn't cost you an action.
