BNN NEWS -- Inu, the old woman some called a prophet and some considered a noisy old crank, has disappeared.

"One second she was there, the next she wasn’t," said one bystander. "I don’t know what happened. The poor old woman is probably lost somewhere. She had clearly lost her mind. It’s a good thing no one took any of her crazy talk seriously."

Her pet beetle remains where he was, near the Britannia Bank. Beetles can go days without food, but how long can they go without the love of their master?
