Suzaki 'Knocking' Resumes at Report No. 40 — Starting From the Third Floor This Time, Breaking the 'Second Pass' Order
The 'knocking' reports at Suzaki Complex No. 3, which fell silent before dawn on the 26th, resumed before dawn on the 27th — but this time starting from the third floor, breaking from the order of the previously reported 'second pass' that had circled sequentially from the first floor. The report brings the cumulative total to 40. The management association says, 'We expected it to start over from the beginning, but that's not what happened.'
The "knocking" reports at Suzaki Complex No. 3 resumed before dawn on the 27th. According to the management association, no report at all came in before dawn on the 26th — the first such night since reports began in early September, as previously reported — but around 3 a.m. on the 27th, a resident on the third floor reported one. The cumulative total now stands at 40.
The previously reported "second pass" (first floor on the 21st, then second on the 22nd, third on the 23rd, fourth on the 24th, fifth on the 25th) had circled through without breaking order, but this time the sequence did not restart at the first floor — it resumed at the third, departing from the management association's earlier expectation that "it looks like it circled back to the start." The board member on duty said, "I expected it to start over from the beginning, but that's not what happened. Honestly, I've lost any sense of where it might come from next."
A covert patrol officer was, as with past reports, stationed on a different floor this time and detected no presence or sound. According to the TDA, the permeation index in the area remained at normal levels, with no observation event corresponding to a Yuragi confirmed. The management association will keep its notice urging residents not to answer any pre-dawn knocking unchanged. Both the truth and the cause remain unresolved.
