>"I think there's more to it than that. The entire city's been hit, as far as I can tell, and nearly all at the same time - even people who'd been practically looking right at their money. The donation box at the clinic had the same thing happen to it. I had Nazrin try to dowse for the cash, and there's some magic or something blocking her from finding it. Whoever did this is more than just some thief."
>"Well if she has an ass, I'll kick it!" says Parsee. "And it won't just be me, either! Ugh, no wonder Yuugi's late!"
> "I got a tip from the street that whoever did this looked like a rabbit. Did you see anyone at all come in last night?"
>"Yeah, actually!" says Parsee. "One of those Eientei sorts, I'm sure. She was only in the city for an hour at most! Didn't think much of it at the time, figured she was just getting something for the mad doctor up there. So she did it, huh? Shame for her those ears doubt as handles!"
> Do we know of anyone who would possess the magical ability to perform such a stunt? Besides Byakuren.
>You...aren't really sure. You know Byakuren is very powerful, but you don't know her capabilities very well. You suppose she might conceive of something like this as a lesson about greed, but honestly she's smart enough to see exactly why it's be a poor idea, probably. You suppose Yukari could be behind it, or maybe even the aforementioned mad doctor of Eientei, as Parsee termed her; though you know little about her aside from the fact she's powerful and skilled. Patchouli is certainly a possibility, you met her a couple years ago when autumn just wasn't going to quit. But you're not sure if she has the raw skills necessary. At the same time, you're aware that you're not fully informed on all of the surface peoples.
