Sounds like a puzzle worth cracking. I’ll pull up the old city archives, sift through the graffiti logs, and see if anyone mentioned a "Red Wall" before it vanished. If there's a hidden backstory, I’ll dig it out and we’ll rewrite the narrative—no shortcuts, just solid facts and a few laughs along the way. Ready to dive in?

I’ve already dug through the municipal graffiti registry and the old police blotter. There’s a note from March 12th—an anonymous tip that a wall in the East‑Side alley was painted a vivid crimson overnight, but the city inspector’s report the next day lists the wall as “unmarked” and “no evidence of vandalism.” The only corroboration is a handful of anonymous social‑media posts that show a faint outline of a red shape, but no high‑resolution images or eyewitness statements are in the public domain. I’ve pulled the relevant entries from the city archives, so we can quote the official record and note the absence of proof. Let’s use that as our baseline and then see where the rumors go off track.
