<p>It's a good idea (both as a tactic from the witch side and in writing a story) to call a 'witness' from the dead, but what's the point if there's no red truth?</p>

In the 3rd game when Eva calls Hideyoshi as a witness, what's the point if there's no red truth?

Then again I guess the idea is that
