Laplace’s Witch



We may regard the present state of the universe as the effect of its past and the cause of its future. An intellect which at a certain moment would know all forces that set nature in motion, and all positions of all items of which nature is composed, if this intellect were also vast enough to submit these data to analysis, it would embrace in a single formula the movements of the greatest bodies of the universe and those of the tiniest atom; for such an intellect nothing would be uncertain and the future just like the past would be present before its eyes.
— Pierre Simon Laplace, A Philosophical Essay on Probabilities

I search for the a formation paragraphs after finishing the book Laplaces witch wrote by 東野圭吾, a famous Japan crime novelist. 

At the very beginning, you have no idea what is happening. Then, someone died because of natural poison hot spring gas. And another one died following the same path. It looks like you almost discover the conspiracy under the theme. But it tuned our the other way around. The poor devastating guy became the murder, the murder became the vulnerable one.   

For the crime theme, It’s all about the astronomical stability.  By employing the knowledge the atoms and physics motion, you could well predict the future. 
The demon of Laplace manipulate the theme by trigger something into the macro environment. You got to think that all the relationships are well calculated. 
What’s your target results? then reverse back to the place you are, alter it to get the result. He and she are Demon and Witch of Laplace.

It’s very like playing the Go game, think ahead of many steps to win the game, it’s all about your life as well, plan ahead of moving forward. Is any thing hinder you right now?
