It seems to me that if there is a real culprit and the story as a whole is supposed to be solvable, then Beato must have been using "real" fragments from the cat box as a basis. Even if she edited in Shannon and Kanon and set them up to be the culprits, there's got to be some trace of the real culprit's presence in there somewhere. So, what if Beato's red truth was a tool to establish her own mystery, rather than the truth of the fragments she adapted? Is it still heretical to suggest that she might have ruled out the culprit in red in order to tighten up her own plot, while still leaving the effects of that person's actions visible?
