[ Well, since Jolyne is looking, there does seem to be a fuse in there, but right now it is not lit. That being said...
F.F.
There's an impact-activated fuse in there.
It's not lit in this simulation.
F.F. is also watching the Mayor do little bounces while Sabo looks on with disgust. Groce. You've found all the evidence you need in this particular sim you think, now whether you can come up with the picture of events is another story.

There are NO TERMITES, there is only THERMITE. No bugs. Yeah, the balloon pops with little fanfare. It just pops as you would expect a balloon to do, it's not special. The paper inside comes fluttering down out of it. It's small, just slightly larger than say, business card. Printed on the sturdy, almost cardstock-like material is --
[ releases herself from the vr since they get the feeling that they've got what they needed from the mayor. see ya, shorty. hello reality again. she just kinda shakes her head a bit and waits to see what the findings are!
[ is also releasing himself from vr and reflexively nods for sabo to follow him before remembering that. it's an ai in his eyeball. fuc
anyway that embarrassing moment aside there are no termites (STOP SHAMING ME) and he goes to the rest to read the balloon prizes. and turn the fucking light on so they can read the balloon prizes i hate us. ]
Left of where? Of this place? Or of where the body was?
[ what's on the left of the body... what's on the left of this entire building also. what does ⤩ mean, since that's clearly what it says and isn't a picture with arrows ]
I wonder if this has to do with the corpse itself... He was missing his left half, right?
[ it was eaten... by the termites. Lillium racks his head as he wonders the same things as them. It really could mean left of anything and these arrows could mean crossing ANYTHING. ]
Maybe we should look for the rest of the balloons. There might be more pieces of paper in them. [ ... ] I don't like that there are these weird notes left behind. We might be dealing with a freak.
[ The Mayor is entirely missing his left half :'( It got eaten by termites. ← This was pre-written content I had ready and waiting for you until Hei stole my joke instead.
That is to say, there was nothing there, and in the real world, there is still nothing there beyond the scorch mark.
There's nothing to the left of the building but you did get a QR code earlier with locations yeah. Wyd. Wanna split to cover ground? ]
[ just disdainful agreement at the thought of having to collect literal balloons like come on people are dead here! what are you! the joker!? worse!?!? in any case jolyne just gives a stretch and crosses her eyes briefly. ]
Alright. I can hit the... [ looking at list... ] Park and the shrine?
[ Do you sense silent mirth from Lillium's left eye... Nico thinks this is funny, I decided. Lillium OBVIOUSLY thinks this is funny based on his shitty smile. ]
It's a very big store with a lot of areas. I just don't want you to get lost in there, mister corsair. It's nothing like the seven seas.
