A petty crime and it is unlikely anyone will pay attention to Police Request.

My wife loves Tulips. This is a completely senseless crime and I hope they can get whoever did this. It takes a lot of effort to chop up 1000 tulips, so obviously someone has a grudge somewhere along the line. When they do find the culprit, they should fine that person at 1000yen per tulip!

Probably a tulip investor trying to drive up tulip prices.

What a nutjob(s)! To cut 1,000 tulips is no mean feat, so somebody must be really looney tunes.
