I'm still comparing your past to my future [W3, Wednesday]

[There's no preamble as he approaches Kyouko's hut and knocks on the doorframe, assuming her partner would be out and about with the rest of the island. It's only when she answers the door and he motions for her to step outside that he begins to speak while walking down the beach.]

So...I have something you might be interested in. Since you wanted me to uphold my end of the deal.

There may be two item roles. Remember what they said: duplicate roles may exist...so, it may be that one of them intends to help and one of them intends to hinder.

[zerotohiro]

It'd explain stuff like the blowdart maybe. I mean the Chief said they'll give out any items a person needs for a murder but we don't know if there are limits or if killers are working with the hurtful item role.

And if there are two, that means we should be waiting for something else to go wrong. Right?

[evidentiary]

I think it means we should keep a very close eye on what "items" are used in this upcoming murder. There is at least one connection from last week, but...

[ ... ]

Before I can confirm it, I'll have to see it happen again...and get it verified independently of myself.

[zerotohiro]

So you're going to wait a week to determine if our items person does something to connect the dots? What are you thinking? And how would you even get it verified? Whatever it is.

[evidentiary]

Unfortunately, I don't have a choice. The only way to find out beyond waiting to see if the pattern matches up again is to get a truthful answer from the Chiefs about it...and if it's something I might be able to figure out alone, I'd prefer not to ask them anything.

[zerotohiro]

...if you figure it out next week before I do, will you tell me?

[evidentiary]

...I'll speak to you after the next trial.

[zerotohiro]

Thanks. That's pretty much all I ask for. [There's a short nod.]

We should probably head back soon.

[evidentiary]

Yes, let's leave. I'll speak with you later.

[ BYE AGAIN ]
