Renall you completely ignored my point that it makes no sense for someone to lie about something that can be easily checked.

Your whole counters fall if you can't find a plausible explanation for this.


The messages in the bottles are an existence that is known worldwide and so are their contents. So a fact like "the first message was discovered by the police shortly after the incident" can't possibly be something that Ootsuki made up. There's just no way that the origin of those messages weren't made public, and there's no way that the authorities wouldn't rectify a false statement about themselves.

The bottle was taken as an evidence about the incident. You should know well that in that case all the related info about its discovery were properly registered and that it was stored into a safe place.

Again if you question this you must provide a sensible explanation as to why Ootsuki would lie or as to why he would be misinformed despite being a prominent witch hunter and an university professor.


So the only option that's left to you is to speculate that the police or someone inside falsified the story or the content of the bottle. But can you really find any reason as to why would they want to do that?

1) We're told it was found soon after the incident. Being told something is not the same as the thing we're told actually being true.

You could say the same thing to question every single fact of this story. It's what we are told, and that's all that we have to base or reasonings upon.

2) There are many reasons to wait, but relatively few reasons why the delay on the message bottles would be so long.

Oh really?

3) We have long known that Beatrice's goal was not factually-accurate retellings of the events of those two days. She has no reason not to kill Eva.

Then she has no reasons to wait until the facts to write her stories.

And that aside, I really don't have much reason to think she didn't. If two people can survive independently, three people certainly can. Or four. Or eighteen. Hell, what do we know?

And where was that suggested?
Maybe you haven't noticed but this was the last episode.
