Ah. I'm rather certain that, in the game, escape by the window was the only possible solution. At the same time, Erika never figures out Shkanon, so when she can't explain how Kanon escaped the Guesthouse, Beatrice essentially went "Well, whatever. I won't make you explain that trick, and we'll just assume that he does it 'somehow'." There's nothing else really available to use besides Shannon left by the window, activated Kanon mode for the lulz.

Unless this is a translation error in the patch it is a logic error in the game for George NOT to be lying, hence why I chose him over Battler.
Ah, you're right. It still works though if 'killed' is being used as an adjective, which I guess it has to be. You can call it either a less than perfection moment in the translation, or just a hilariously misleading sentence. I dunno, I dunno how the original japanese line was. Anyways, the other side of what I meant is that when your reasoning gets down to "George or Battler, who's lying?" George doesn't have anyone he could have murdered, so he's out.

Well, VERY technically speaking, you might say George could have killed Kanon, but her game seems to both acknowledge and disregard Kanon, and it's more like he goes poof as soon as Shannon dies rather than being killed outright.
