Colorful dresses swirl by. Laughter makes the air come alive. Cooking smells compete with one another to entice passers-by with their aromas. A festival atmosphere pervades this spot, which has somehow been connected to the nexus ( Read more... )

Beauty contest? Here's one girl who is absolutely up for it! There's a big grin on her face as she completely ignores the protest that seems to be coming, inexplicably, from a white cat upon her shoulder, then she's bouncing towards the registration table. The form she quickly fills out reads 'Aino Minako' at the top, and then she's standing in line and whispering to the cat.

"Oh hush, Artemis. It won't hurt anything, I'll just have a bit of fun!"

They're not irrelevant! They're very, very relevant! After all, if thievery is done in the name of a good cause, and if no one is hurt, then can one really consider the thief in question guilty? Minako definitely believes not! A firm look spreads across her face as she looks back at the panel.

"It does matter! What if A was stealing because there were starving people who needed food? Or if A made sure that no one was hurt, or if A stole from someone corrupt! Like Robin Hood and his men in tights! That's not guilt, right? It's justice!"

"Those are very good concerns, but the point of this puzzle is the logic. Morality would be a different sort of question," Ami tries. Please let Minako finally get the point.

"Let's not say guilty, then," she says, mostly to move things along. "Did A take the things?" Maybe that will be simplified enough.

A nice set of claws in her shoulder inform her that she's really pushed her luck to far. After all, publicly and to her friends, she's not supposed to support the Venusian Thief, and this is running really close to that. She winces a bit at the feeling, but finally sighs and pouts a little.

"Yes."

"Correct! If B can't drive, it can't be him. And if C won't do anything without A, it can't be C alone. So A definitely took the things, maybe with C's help."
