>>7421
The Servant's room was completely on fire at that time.

The only entrances to Guestroom #4 are the windows, door, and hole connecting to the hallway.

You hear her getting even closer.

>>7422
The room being on fire does not prevent anyone from being inside it! Furthermore, all the culprit needed to do was shoot through the ceiling to hit Rudolf in the chest! Then they left through one of the windows!

>>7423
The culprit didn't hide in the servant room.
Rudolf was not shot.
The culprit did not leave through either of the windows.

You hear the footsteps stop directly behind you.

>>7424
Then the culprit hid on the roof. And stabbed Rudolf from above, with a knife attached to a string. The culprit then pulled the string up to remove the knife, leaving no evidence behind. They then jumped off the roof into the snow, escaping...!

>>7425
The culprit did not hide on the roof.

All you see is the room turn as your face hits the muddy red puddle that was under your foot. Your remaining leg has been cut off!

>>7426
"Really, only two out of six on the first loop?
Don't worry, we are not done yet! Remember, to proceed you have to solve each howdunit. Time to start from the top!"

First Howdunit.

The fragile shell of a human with her fat lard of a husband found inside a locked room.

>>7427
Fourth theory. The chain didn't prevent any murder from happening. For example, the culprit could squeeze through the door even while the chain was set.

>>7428
When the chain was set it prevented a person from entering the room.

>>7429
But did it prevent their weapon from entering the room?

>>7430
"Sure. However, The culprit was inside of the room when they killed Eva and Hideyoshi."

>>7431
Wait. Is that 'person' the culprit? If not, my theory holds true!

>>7432
In that sentence a 'person' refers to anyone on the island.

So no one could fully enter/exit the room when the chain was set.

>>7433
Going back to my first theory. The room which Battler and Genji arrived at was not the correct room. The chain may have been set, but Eva and Hideyoshi were in a different room.

>>7434
Battler and Genji arrived at the correct room. That room being the one Eva and Hideyoshi were killed and found in.

>>7435
Back to the fourth theory. The chain presents no problem to a culprit who can cut it. And they repaired the chain, setting it as they left.

>>7436
The chain was only cut once and that was by Genji right before discovering the dead bodies.
It was never replaced or repaired.

>>7437
Fifth theory. One of the two let the culprit inside. The culprit then killed them, set the chain, and fled through the bathroom... There's a hidden passage connecting the two bathrooms together!

>>7438
"That has got to be the worst theory yet"

There are no hidden passage in the bathroom or anywhere else in Guestroom #3.

>>7439
Second theory. You only denied one window. The culprit used a different one!

>>7440
The culprit did not used a window to enter or leave the room.

>>7441
The culprit used the door. They set the chain from the outside.

>>7442
"Tsk. Correct, the chain was set from the outside.

Third howdunnit.

The housewife reduced to nothing but a safe-house.

>>7443
Fourth theory. The culprit was hiding in the room in which Natsuhi was found dead. They cut her throat, killing her. Then they shot her with their own gun, not the one in the other room. Then they left through either the window or the door.

>>7444
"How would have the culprit left through the window or the door? Both of them were locked from the inside!"

>>7445
Either of them might have auto-locks!
Or maybe the string is actually a mechanism set by the culprit to lock one of them from the inside!

>>7446
Neither the door or the window have an auto lock.
No mechanism was used to lock either the door or window.

>>7447
Is there any problem with the culprit leaving after we discovered the crime?

>>7448
"Did you ever see the culprit in there? You must be grabbing at air.

When you arrived at the door the only person in the room was Natsuhi, dead.

>>7449
Can the door be locked from the outside without a key? Or maybe the window? I mean, if chains can be set, who knows what else could happen!

>>7450
"What's this? Here I thought you actually deduced the answer to the first howdunit! I guess that was also sheer luck.

Now you are even asking questions in blue! How lame."

>>7451
There were broken tools inside the storage room. Maybe those could have been used to lock the door/window.

>>7452
"How exactly would that help? The tools are inside of the room. They'd be just as much help locking the entrances as a human hand would."

The last thing to lock the door and window was directly caused by a key or human hand.

>>7453
Fifth theory. The culprit never entered the room! It was all an elaborate trap set up beforehand!

>>7454
There was no trap used in this murder!

"Unless you count the red herrings of course."

>>7455
Returning to my fourth theory. The culprit left via the window. After they left, snow fell from a tree near the window, blocking it, and also somehow causing the window to lock itself.

>>7456
...

The window was locked by the culprits hand.

>>7457
From the outside.

>>7458
When the culprit locked the window they were inside the room.

"See? There is no way they could leave through the window!"

>>7459
OH, YOU BET THERE IS!

THEY REMOVED THE WINDOW FROM ITS FRAME AND PUT IT BACK FROM THE OTHER SIDE!

>>7460
"fffffff"
Correct...

Forth Howdunit

The butler found swimming in the shrouded darkness.

Fourth theory. The culprit entered via the window, stabbed Genji, set the chain, and leaves again through the window. After all, I never checked to see if the window was locked.

Also, the blood found on the way there belongs to Kyrie.

>>7472
"!

T-The culprit never entered through the window.
The blood in the hallway is from Genji. "

>>7473
OzakiErika! You bitch!!! Who cares how they got in, they left through the window! Still haven't denied it!

>>7474
"Fine, I guess that won't fool anyone.

You are correct. The window wasn't even locked. After killing Genji they locked the door and left through the window.

"Besides, as they always say; save the best for last!"

Sixth Howdunit.

The man found dead inside of the burning inferno.

>>7475
...Oh Miss Erika, is that a logic error I see?~

>>7476
"Oh? I imagine this will be trite. Let's hear you complaints."

>>7477
You said just now,

"After killing Genji they locked the door and left through the window."

However, the narration text during the discovery of the crime said this:

"Battler carefully puts his hand on the doorknob and gives it a twist, but does not open it. It seems that it isn't locked."

And quite so, we are able to enter without using a key to unlock the door.

But you just said that they locked the door, then left through the window! So who unlocked it?!

L O G I C E R R O R ! ! !

>>7478
>implying setting a chain doesn't effectively lock a door

"It's called a chain lock for a reason you know. Maybe you want me to be more specific, I may consider it if you kissed my shoes.

Then again, if you're that desperate for the win maybe you should put some effort towards actually solving the mysteries."

>>7479
Well, I thought you might say something like that. But I digress, I'm almost done so I won't press you on it.
