We just need one more day to investigate the crime. One more day, and we can finger the true culprit. Can we buy that time at trial?
I sure hope so.
I’m genuinely happy that it’s been long enough that I didn’t wholly remember the big twist with the Steel Samurai outfit being worn by the victim, and outside Studio Two. When I said before the monkey head not blocking off the path was a minor blemish, this is why.
Though we don’t have the crucial information from Cody’s photo until the last minute, every single detail aside from that is established well ahead of time. We know that Studio Two was blocked off, and we had the bottle of sleeping pills from our investigation. I hesitate to say it was possible to figure it out ahead of time, but the big twist that our victim was in the suit doesn’t come out of thin air. Rather, it’s the logical consequence of the chain of facts build-up until that point.
It’s a masterpiece of murder mystery writing, and you’ll find as we progress that artistry is maintained across the entire series. Next week, we should wrap up Turnabout Samurai and get to my favorite case from the first game.
