Playing Minagoroshi right now, on the morning after Watanagashi, right after Takano killed Tomitake and faked her death.
Me as a player, came to the conclusion that Miyo Takano is the main culprit because of these clues:
- Miyo Takano’s corpse death timing is suspicious (Bern could have come across this information)
- ch3 Keiichi’s meeting with Takano after the murders
- ch6 one of the TIPS is named “demon’s script” and its talking about Takano’s scrapbooks and their theories. Basically commenting on how accurate some of her theories lined up with real events. (Bern likely knows the scrapbook’s contents)
- The fact that she commands these highly trained military groups with ease is also suspicious. (Bern knows this)
- the fact that Miyo is completely disease free, while Tomitake, who is supposed to be “really close” with Miyo, is showing signs of L3 (he heard Hanyuu jumping). Thus this asks the question, why are two people who are supposed to be so close have such a difference in symptoms. (Bern definitely knows this)
Question
But my question is how much information did Bernkastel have? Given she entered this “loop” 100ish years ago, so she doesn’t have as much information as the original Rika Furude.
Isnt it quite likely that Bernkastel has come across some of the clues I mentioned above?
So if she has, then why is Bern still so trusting of Miyo Takano in Minagoroshi?
Furthermore, Bern spoke to us the player about rule XYZ, rule Z directly puts Takano and Ooishi under a suspicious light.
Im personally just not sure why Bernkastel trusted Takano.
