Pshrynk had a Nook? And it's broken? Now that IS a crime!

And it seems this Turcic person owns everything there is to own in this town. Coincidence? It's all very suspicious.

Hmm... possibly this is Turcic's way to remove an annoyance, and get some worth out of his deadbeat detective...

Prying the hand open, I found a yellowish star with a red letter "Q" printed on it. Another photo.

The 7% solution.

Ivan was working on the infinite table, again, when pshrynk, unwittingly bringing the crowbar to the moderator suite himself (as captured by the security camera), yelled the '*uck' word as a precautionary warning, not knowing what would happen when he couldn't help but press the red button.



Yvan, being a good and long standing member of MR, had no choice but to relieve pshrynk of the murder weapon and give him several good well-deserved Thouaqqques.

As Sherlock was fond of saying, "When you remove the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth".

But then again, nothing seems impossible or improbable at MR. There's still a 93% chance that I may be wrong.

That makes sense in an odd sort of way. The problem is, the infinite table was already completed. leTerrible was not in the Suite. You learn to ask these things when you're a PI for hire.
