Black Stories 3 ~ Case 41: The Spaniards

[Dead Princess Sakana]

Did the men drown by accident?

YES

Were they drowned by someone else?

NO

Did they suicide?

NO

[Thaws]

Oh lol, I don't even remember what the riddle was and have to check. :V

Are anchors involved?

Did the third person think the Spaniards were drowning? (or at least in some kind of danger?)

Are natural hazards involved?

Was the weather condition at the time of the accident related?

The captain sailed his large ship past by the smaller one carrying the Spaniards and the waves drowned them.

Are anchors involved?

NO

Did the third person think the Spaniards were drowning? (or at least in some kind of danger?)

NO. You may assume the third person didn't notice them.

Are natural hazards involved?

NO

Was the weather condition at the time of the accident related?

Only in that it rules out causes like a storm.

The captain sailed his large ship past by the smaller one carrying the Spaniards and the waves drowned them.

NO, but going in the right direction   :3

[Thaws]

Did the captain realize there are people on the smaller ship?

[Dead Princess Sakana]

Did the captain realize there are people on the smaller ship?

NO

[Thaws]

Looks like I'm onto something! :V

So the two ships never came in contact?

Did the captain sink the smaller ship deliberately?

Did the captain want something from the smaller ship?

[Dead Princess Sakana]

So the two ships never came in contact?

The ship's bodies never touched, NO.  :3

Did the captain sink the smaller ship deliberately?

NO

Did the captain want something from the smaller ship?

NO

[Thata no Guykoro]

Did the captain realize there was a smaller ship?

[Dead Princess Sakana]

Did the captain realize there was a smaller ship?

Hehehehehe. NO, not at all.

[Mushyrulez]

Did the Spaniards' boat touch any other meaningful object? An extension of the larger ship (like a lifeboat)? An iceberg/rock that they had to hit to avoid the larger ship?

Back to start posting stupid questions now ._.

Hmm, it has something to do with an extension of the larger ship, YES. However I can't answer yes to the whole question as it is.
Think about something: Was it asked before what the Spaniards were doing on the ship anyway?

[Mushyrulez]

:V

The two Spaniards were fishing on their small boat, when a large boat came sailing by. The large boat was caught in their fishing... net, causing the Spaniard's boat to overturn.

Was there an extension from the smaller ship? Were the Spaniards trying to do something to the larger ship? Did the Spaniards possess something that directly caused them to sink?

My brain feels dead right now. Is this going in the right direction? :ohdear:

YES. However, I will not be satisfied with this alone. How could it happen that the large boat caused the small boat to overturn without the captain noticing it?  :3

Was there an extension from the smaller ship?

YES. That would be the fishing net.

Were the Spaniards trying to do something to the larger ship?

NO

Did the Spaniards possess something that directly caused them to sink?

NO

Is this going in the right direction?

Very much so.

[Thata no Guykoro]

Was the fishing net responsible for the overturning of the boat?
