re: looking for xiuchen, the narrator actually brings it up at one point i think! but the police point out there's no point in searching for them because if they haven't turned up by now, it's most likely they're dead. and i think he also says at one point that what they need now is a story for the media relations and the families. the driver of the car also gets written off in a car accident, so the idea is that "no one will ever know what happened"
there's no point in searching for them because if they haven't turned up by now, it's most likely they're dead
lol i wonder what police would come up with this assumption and why.
and tbh "no one will ever know what happened" feels a bit... idk, i just didn't like that a lot of things didn't make sense without further explanation (that we will never get). i mean, fair enough, sometimes murders irl are that way, but.
da and i agree, i still think in any normal society xiuchen would be primary suspects. who's to say it was just a joke when they could have been psychos who flawlessly engineered this mastermind of a mass murder? even if it they WERE innocent, they're still guilty of running from a murder scene, isnt this like indirect manslaughter, knowing murder are happening yet not reporting it?
im pretty good at suspending belief myself, but this is something that makes the whole danger of it all seem cheap and stupid, like dude, you just willingly died by an open window. dude.
