The Biggest Mystery



"Dish rag, what do you think the ultimate mystery is?" Neuro spontaneously asked one early spring day.

Yako looked up from some computer research she was doing. Neuro was staring at her.

It was kind of creepy.

"The…ultimate Mystery?"

"Did I stutter?"

"ano…." Yako leaned back and looked out the window; some one was washing the windows of the opposite building. "You're asking me? Well…..the biggest mystery is like the the greatest question, right? So, the biggest question on earth is what's the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything?"

"Nonsense." Neuro replied, "Everyone knows the answer to that." He flung a pen at her.

"It's forty-two, dishrag."


"What does forty-two have to do with anything?" She flung the pen back at him. He caught it. Damn.Godaii walked in about then, and sat down on the couch. He was obviously making a point that he was not paying attention to anything Neuro would say.

"Everything. It means that we know the answer to the mystery. But what do we not know?"

"How we got to 42?"

"Exactly." Neuro replied, quickly browsing through a stack of articles Yako had put on his desk earlier that day.

Godaii huffed, and said "That's stupid. Even I know that. The question is "what do you get when you multiply six by nine?' anyone with basic math knows that. It's forty-two." Godaii sat there, a fairly smug grin on his face. "there, ultimate universal question solved."


Yako did some fairly quick math, and came to a very odd realization.

"No it's not."

"Dishrag two doesn't do very well with numbers, huh?" Neuro asked.

Three floors up, and two rooms to the right, you could hear the loud combination crying and swearing of Godaii.


Neuro didn't want to tell them that that question, had indeed already been solved. Oddly enough, by an earthman named Arther Dent.


A.N: just a quick blurble, will edit later.
