      Makes more sense than the original. "Well, these people died in prison and Kira couldn’t have broken in for… reasons, and Kira can’t be more than one person for… reasons, so ergo thus and therefore we can reasonably conclude that Kira is using shadow demon magic. QED

        L took a bit to start suspecting the supernatural, and he used a variant canary trap to narrow down the killer’s location, which at a minimum pointed to whoever was making decisions.

        Hmm… this high school kid is so unassuming and mind-mannered. That just makes me even more suspicious of him!

        They all conveniently died by heart attacks though. If disease is ruled out, shadow demon magic is honestly as reasonable as anything.

        IIRC prisoners died worldwide of heart attacks in the span of a few hours. The cops do mention the possibility of it being a coordinated attack from a global network somehow, I think one even jokes they suspect it was the CIA.

        But yeah, as to how L starts to think it was supernatural they never really go into it besides “he’s the world’s best (and 2nd and 3rd best) detective”.

          In the first episodes L tested if Light had to be there in person to kill with the broadcast of Lind L Taylor, but I think he never mentioned a supernatural cause. Later Light made criminals write letters with the hidden message “L do you know Shinigami love apples”, probably starting the suspicions in the supernatural direction
