pg 116-135 of ガリレオ and finished case 2! this went in a more predictable direction than the last one but was good fun so it’s all good. i’ve been telling my parents (who like crime dramas) about each case as i’ve been reading them and my dad basically nailed the how for this one, so we’ll see how he does on the next one 
there’s a kind of rube goldberg feel to how some of these cases happen tho
today’s nhk article was this one, plus appendix 1 in aDoIJG
words that stood out: new kanji edition
鸚鵡返し - parroting back, repeating another’s words (like a parrot)
閃光 - glint of light
碍子 - insulator (for electricity)
痙攣 - spasm, convulsion. i think i’ve seen this before but the kanji trip me up every time
避雷針 - lightning rod. makes sense!
