He either moved around in the environment or left it completely.
Or he stayed perfectly still.
Fwiw, it looks like that's "southwest", not "south, west". Still not narrowing it down much.
Well, at least they know which z-axis he's on.
"We've knocked out a whole dimension, boys! Good work!"
Agreed. Without context, it seems like they were saying "They had a lot of options for where they could have gone, but still went the one direction they shouldn't have."
At least we know he didn't go straight west, nor straight south.
Unless "abroad" is in one or both of those directions 🤔
Reminds me of an old school text adventure.
Where do you want to go now? (N, E, S, W, U, D)
Thorin sits down and starts singing about gold.
What about the z index? Did he go up or down?
They've ruled out the possibility of him going up, but not down
maybe they really and ultimately narrowed it down to "gone".
also they ruled out:
- up or down
- sideways
- back or forth in time
- with the wind
- hiding
- just vanishing
- gone for good
- gone for a walk
- other realities / timelines / simulations (maybe recovery from backup is still possible)
...
8-)
UPDATE-edit: damn i forgot Schroedingers quantum gone paradoxon: He decides where he was only in that very moment when they actually find him.
Nobody ever goes up or down, in fact the mere idea of it is preposterous.
if police believes nobody can ever go up or down, upstairs or in the cellar would be a genious hiding place, wouldn't it?
Well superhero caves are usually below the surface so he/she has to go down there somehow
Eh, in this simulation you have to install the z-axis mod to be able to use latters and stairs, sure, i just thought everyone had it installed by now.
Thank god he didn't go south-east.
He could have fooled us all by stating exactly where he was
Nope that is pretty much the only thing that there are sure didn't happen
Well at least that rules out space and the hollow earth.
those fall under "abroad", I would think
And time travel, which is handy because in that last picture they showed of him he looked like a fucked up Terminator.
