Let's turn the chessboard over. You're Ryukishi, and you're going to reveal important details of the mystery in EP7. So what do you do for EP6?

You write it as a huge trap directed at the readers so that the reveal will be more interesting. The entire episode "hints" at Shkanon. But that doesn't mean it's true. It's possible Ryukishi planned this trap from the very beginning. Two characters who look alike, and are never seen together at the same time by a reliable source. That sounds really suspicious right from the start. Isn't that the definition of a red herring?

As long as it has a 0.00000001% chance of being wrong, then a miracle can occur and Shkanon won't be true.
