^ quite simple... before or after the PM?

Spoiler for messageS behind Rena's hat:

here are what the hat is important:
-The hat has 3 issues: the time, the location, and the nature (the stain)
=>
-Why was she there, far from the disaster, at this time (since it occured around midnight) and why a blood stain?!

Basically, the Rena leaves an important memento : there are murderers.
Why it is "that important"? first i believe she doesn't know about rika's death, nor satoko. Thus if she dies where she is, she will probably get her corpse hidden.


If we collect this data with Satoko and Rika, it is clear for us that a disaster never occured in the first place.
But for ooishi, there is NOTHING. Satoko is "dead like" , the Hat 'might" be an accident : she got hurt, and she lost her hat. without her presence (or corpse...) that doesn't mean anything;
Why still isn't enough? because Rika's death is NOT sufficient. They might think it is a Fanatic who did it, since a "curse" is occuring each year since 1979. (this is the major reason why the police is hindered for the past 4 incident, because the rampant "oyashiro sama curse" is really imprinted all the way in hinamizawa)

With satoko's experience, they CAN "translate" her message, and then guess it is a CONSPIRACY. (that is what i said earlier : Satoko DIDN'T witness Rena, she EMULATE and IMAGINE what Rena has done, with her own mad espace and what ooishi said (especially the location).
Satoko doesn't KNOW what happaned in the disaster, and she was only focalised on Rika's murder, and her friends "natural deaths".
With her mad escape, she was able to link Rika's murder with the disaster, so the henchmen are without a doubt related to what happened to Rena and so, in the same extent, to the "disaster"


Also, keep in mind they don't know what happaned to Kumatani, and Irie's death isn't shown as "suspicious".
