Ever since this mystery began, I've been wondering how much of a time differential there was between your dream and reality.

@Holmes

I further thought that, depending on what that differential turned out to be, I might be able to intervene directly.

At Chaldea, you collapsed while[sr]looking at the moon on May 14, 2019.
|

|

|

@Holmes

You woke up for the fifth time on May 15, Chaldea time, and still the moon was not yet full.

This led me to realize that your dream was actually taking place a few days in the future.

Once I knew that, I decided to intervene directly,[sr]and now, here we are.

?1:Wait. This is all happening in the future...?
|

I'm afraid we don't yet know how it works, but yes, that is the inescapable conclusion. Regardless, what is important is not HOW it is happening, but WHEN.

@Holmes

If you don't believe me, go ahead and look up a lunar calendar for yourself. You'll see that the full moon in May 2019 falls on the eighteenth here.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
|
||
@Holmes
|

Count backwards from that, and we can determine that Cain accidentally hit you with his ball in the afternoon of May 16, Kogetsukan time, marking the point where your dream began.

Since it was May 15 at Chaldea when I arrived at this conclusion, I had a day to plan.

I first contacted the Goldie family as Sheringham, using my knowledge of the threatening letter to capture Aaron's attention.

From there, it was simply a matter of filling[sr]in the blanks, rather like a crossword puzzle.

Given the travel time from the United States, and the fact that it was warm enough to go swimming even in the middle of May, I was almost immediately able to determine that you were somewhere in the Caribbean.

Finding the Kogetsukan seemed trickier, but then I remembered that “kogetsu” is an old Japanese word for “crescent moon.”

Using a map, I was able to pinpoint an island that was shaped like a crescent moon. The rest, you know.

One need merely clench a ball under one's armpit to cut off circulation to that arm and temporarily halt one's pulse.
|

|

@Holmes
|

It's an old trick now, but it was once a respectable medical technique known as pressure-based hemostasis.
|

[k]
|
||
|
||
@Holmes
|
||
Of course, the arm can become necrotic if one keeps it up for too long, but momentary use of the technique to fool laymen such as yourselves would not be cause for concern.

Dr. Hawthorne is, of course, the only medical professional on the premises. It was inevitable that he would be asked to perform an autopsy in the event someone turned up dead.

So I made a deal with him on the first day. I promised that in exchange for his help faking my death, I would solve the case.
