Combine Clues & Interpret Deductions
1. The ship’s Captain filed a complaint about the postponement of his departure + The depature of the Captain’s ship has been delayed
The Captain’s concerns are understandable
A few days delay isn’t enough to justify the Captain’s reaction (✓)
2. The Captain’s ship transport tobacco, and he often smokes some of it + The Captain said he recently quit smoking
… Why would a zombie quit smoking? (✓)
There’s no reason to doubt that what the Captain said it’s true
3. Bratatat recently reopened her guns shop + Bratatat’s gun shop had gone out of business for a while
The timing is very suspicious
Bratatat could reopen her shop only because of the anonymous dinar donation
4. (existing deduction)
The Cat must be disguised as one of the women we’ve met
The Cat’s a master of disguise. She could dress up as a man, too (✓)
5. Detective Cough’s been away from the city for a long time + Detective Cough’s skills have become quite rusty in recent years
It’d be stupid for the Cat to disguise herself as someone I know so well
I must admit this is a suspicious circumstance
6. Yuuch claimed she played a role in a popular movie last year + There’s no mention of Yuuch’s “popular” movie in the newspapers
Yuuch is simply a very pretentious character
Yuuch straight out lied
7. The Captain doesn’t remember about Miss Yuuch, at all + Miss Yuuch claims she came to town by ship and that she knows the Captain
Miss Yuuch is lying
It’s weird that the Captain doesn’t remember her (✓)
Confirm Conclusion
– The Cat disguised herself as the ship’s Captain
– The Cat used the stolen money to make all those dinar donations
~~
