I was under the impression that he somehow had found the bottle. Otherwise, how did it magically appear in front of 守須 all of a sudden? This once again looked very much like a coincidence instead of deduction, so it felt very unsatisfying. Although I was sure 島田 would somehow have the last word when I saw he was missing from the club meeting.
I wrote this back in week 5:
Which is interesting, even if it wasn’t the real nickname, because Lupin was an intelligent gentleman thief who always managed to fool the detective who was after him.
I don’t know, but Is there even such a concept as an initial letter in Japanese? It would probably have to be the first syllable? The Latin alphabet is easier to carve, it can be a true initial, and it probably looks more modern and cool or something.
Not mentioned, but hinted that it may have been the end of the rope or something similar. Which annoys me, because that would be a huge clue which エラリィand ルルウ both should have noticed right away. Oh well.
I have that too with people I see in only specific roles at specific places, and I also sometimes have trouble telling people apart in movies if they share a similar style and I don’t know the actor. But even the fact that I couldn’t tell them apart would be a clue, and also there’s really no earthly reason why he would change hairstyles. That’s exactly the trick they use in the manga, by the way.
That was @cat, not me. And I’m not sure who they were referring to, as I never properly read the manga, I just looked at the pictures of the first volume and read some random parts here and there.
