[ Ayabe nods a little, because, yeah. The goal is to be hated, or at least his was. He absolutely does not want to be the center of attention, for good or for bad, and when you're hated you're avoided and that's good enough for him. ]
I don't think it's a pet, though. She just said that they've had troubles trying to build a fence around the lake without it being destroyed. More likely, it's this mansion that was built around the lake.
Somehow, I'm leaning towards the former. You see how fancy everything in this place is, and I bet half the reason there's a lake down there is for "aesthetics."
[ """aesthetics""" like how Plum explained why there's a moldy crypt down there too ]
[ If there's a missing arm somewhere under the water, but he does not want to jump in and see. Whoever volunteers to do lake exploration today is going to die. ]
Something must had happened in the room with all the guns. See—
[ He goes back down the stairs and waits at the bottom for Mammon, pointing out the room across the way. Across the lake. ]
There's gun parts and stuff all the way out here, and it doesn't make sense for somebody to destroy things while running around the lake, but rather something in the lake bridging the path.
[ The gun parts and stuff might be invisible but he swears they exist. ]
[Huh. He stands next to Ayabe to see where he's pointing.]
That's...weird. But guns don't take off arms... [So was it someone running into the gun room for whatever reason?] Unless...do you think that's where Nia was when she got murdered?
I don't know the timeline, but something happened in there, and something also happened outside. There was reportedly blood near the garden, and something like slime.
[ Wereoctopus slime is his thought, but of course he couldn't find anything when he looked around the garden. ]
I think it took off his arm down here, and chased him upstairs and outside. And then... he came back to the hall where Luna and I were asleep, for whatever reason.
