Is there a reason the village was empty the other day? [Everyone keeps talking about a "missing day", but that's not an answer. ...not that he expects a good one.] And something else— Where do you go when you want to get away from someone?

[He doesn't bother filtering that last part. Why bother? If he wants to ragequit his house, then dammit, he will.

Kind of like today. In order to get away from the general annoyance that is his house, he is reading quietly in the tea shop. Surely no one would expect to find him there, right?!]

I'm looking into it. So far there's no type of discernible pattern among those who have received these the memory gaps. There is also no evidence that those people were around on the day. I myself am among the affected, which complicates things. The most likely explanation is of course some type of Malnosso explanations, but it remains to be seen exactly what they did, and without those left behind noticing.

...And any community is full of potential hiding places. True, this place is no city, but rooftops often offer privacy. Bushes and trees also make for sufficient hiding places.

[...okay. Despite the lack of information, this is a very acceptable answer. This guy may be affected, but at least he's sane!]

People are acting weird and we can't tell what those assholes did to them. Same as always.

Rooftops? [...hmm.] That's a good one.

Unfortunately, that seems to be so. This is the first of this type of thing I've experienced since coming here. The sheer randomness makes this place all the harder to do good detective work in.

You're a detective?
