Second Deduction [Video]

[modernholmes]

[Three days in this place, and he'd made no progress in deducing the motive behind this situation.  There seemed to be no pattern in who had been taken and how long they had been kept here.  Not even the victims who had been kept here for long periods at all knew anything real about the situation.  The few supposed reasons he'd heard were ludicrous and obviously merely a guess on the part of his fellow captives.  Obviously, he couldn't make any more progress in this case until he had acquired more information.

And so....]

Hello!

[He smiles brightly at the camera.]

My name is Conan Edogawa!  I wanted to thank everyone who helped me when I woke up here.  Thank you!

But I'm still confused.  Did everyone here just wake up like that?  Someone told me that we're here because the scientists brought us here.  Is that really true?  And has anyone ever met them?  They must be very mean people if they won't let us go home.

[ cacklecackle! ] It is indeed true that those self proclaimed scientists did indeed summon us into this place.

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Did they tell anyone why?

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

Of course not, of course not.

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Oh? I guess they like to keep secrets.

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

Is that truly so surprising? ... What fun is a game if you are merely handed the answers so easily?

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Its mean of them, because they didn't ask if anyone wanted to play. But if its an answer we have to seek out, we will just have to use logic to find the truth. That is something that can never be hidden.

... [ she cackles ] How nice, how nice. They would choose quite the detective to bring into this place, I see.

[...Was that too old?]

Eh? I'm just a kid. But I like to play detective and help Uncle.

However, your logic is flawed, see? At this rate, you have much to learn. ... A pity. This place may be far too challenging for you.

[Oi, how can my logic be flawed when I haven't built a hypothesis yet?]

Ne, what do you mean?

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

There is already a solution to what the cause of everything in this place is, see...?

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

What is that?

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

That is magic.

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Ridiculous.

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

... Hoh?

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Don't say weird things without evidence.

[antimystery.livejournal.com]

Evidence? Look around you? Is being in another world entirely not enough evidence for yoooou?
