Although... I was thinking, in the previous game, he strongly urged me not to rush and to remain silent as much as possible, but now he's the one who's been talking a lot. :/ Either he's nervous, or it's a tactic, or I'm wrong, and then the clue is being misinterpreted.
However, if he left the accusations unanswered, that would be even more foolish.
So, I won't retract my vote, but I'll try to browse Google and Wikipedia again closer to night in search of clues.
