That's simple: he asked Eris to keep the image of him not knowing anything and throwing others off the loop while making himself looking innocent. As I said before, never trust chill guys in murder stories!

As for Gabriella, I'm aware of that common troupe, but I don't think Murasaki (or DW in either case) would pull something so cliche in an scenario as intrincate as this one. Nonetheless, you last arguement does look valid enough to be put into consideration.
