Xiang, the exterminator, said intoxicatedly: "Oh haha...what a beautiful friendship..."
"What we need to do now is to find out who the person we met is also the prisoner, right?" Asahina said.
Naegi Makoto said: "But, with only this clue, we can deduce..."
"...The results are out, right..." Kirigiri said coldly.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Kirigiri...
Ishimaru said: "Really?"
"Who, who is it! Who is the criminal?" Owada said.
Kirigiri said: "Try to focus on the sports bags and sweatshirts that were disposed of by the prisoners... If you think about the characteristics of those things, you should be able to understand who he met...
"
"...Is that true? From the evidence that has been disposed of, we can determine who the prisoner is..." Ceres said.
Yamada, you said: "Are we going to check for fingerprints?"
Ishimaru said: "We don't even have any equipment, so we can't handle it as a layman."
Togami said: "And originally, the evidence has been disposed of. Even if you want to extract fingerprints, you can't do anything without the physical objects."
"Nonetheless, it should be possible to rely on reasoning. If we all discuss it together, we should be able to find clues." Kirigiri said.
Asahina said: "Even if you say we'll discuss it later... Then, let me ask little Ceres... Does that bag or sports have any characteristics?"
"As for bags... they are just ordinary bags placed in the warehouse... There is only one type of bag placed in the warehouse, so even if you ask what the characteristics are..." Ceres thought for a moment.
replied.
Okami Sakura said: "If I remember correctly, there should be different types of sweatshirts... In other words, are there any clues on the sweatshirts that Chihiro once held that can be linked to the prisoner?
...?"
"...How about we have a serious discussion about the sweatshirt he once owned?" Kirigiri said, "It turns out that the victim was planning to exercise...so why...did he choose that one?
Where’s the sweatshirt…”
Togami said: "What does that sweatshirt... mean?"
"I understand, the sweatshirt he chose is... exactly the same as the one held by the prisoner!" Ishimaru said.
"In other words, the real criminal had the same blue sweatshirt as that guy, right? Mine was a black sweatshirt!" Owada said.
Yamada said: "I don't even have a sweatshirt. Who told me I hate sports?"
Ye Yin said: "Mine is a white sweatshirt. It was taken out of the warehouse in the dormitory!"
"Can we really know who the prisoner is by discussing this kind of topic?" Ceres said.
"No, it's impossible." Owada said.
"Wait... Owada, what did you just say? What you just said was very strange!" Lin Xiao said.
"Ah? What's weird?" Owada said.
"Because Ceres's testimony just now never mentioned the color of the sweatshirt, right? You said Qianxun's sweatshirt was blue, how did you know?" Lin Xiao said.
Naegi said: "Nothing was mentioned about the color of the sweatshirt. Even so, why would Owada-kun..."
"Owada! How did you know that the sweatshirt Chihiro once held was blue!" Lin Xiao said.
Owada said: "What are you talking about...you!"
"Hey Ceres, what color is Chihiro's sweatshirt..." Togami said.
Ceres said: "It's true...it's blue..."
Lin Xiao said: "Did you tell anyone about this matter before the trial at the school level?"
Ceres shook her head and said, "I didn't mention the color of the sweatshirt."
"So, when did Owada know about the fact that Chihiro's sweatshirt is blue..." Okami Sakura said.
"Well, well...!" Owada said.
Ishimaru said: "I must have found that sweatshirt during the search..."
Lin Xiao said: "No, when we started the search, it should be after the sports bag and sweatshirt had been disposed of."
"Then, the reason why this guy Owada knows the color of the sweatshirt... is because he saw it when Chi-chan was holding it before he died! There won't be any other situation!" Sho, the genocide said, "
Say! What’s going on? Did you see the sweatshirt? Or not?”
Owada said: "It's just a coincidence... Last night, I happened to see that guy walking with a sweatshirt..."
Lin Xiao said: "Owada, Ceres said that Qianxun put the sweatshirt in her bag...how did you see her holding the sweatshirt?"
"Indeed, Chihiro stuffed all the sweatshirts into the bag after being reminded by Ceres! So even if you happened to see it, you probably wouldn't know the color of the sweatshirt hidden in the bag...
"Miaomu said.
Kirigiri said: "...Did you dig your own grave?"
"It's better to say that this reaction is exactly what you want, isn't it? That's why you said that, right? You can tell who the guy is meeting by looking at the characteristics of Chihiro's sweatshirt...that kind of thing
How is it possible to know...but it happens that the prisoner is really stupid." Togami said.
Ceres said: "...I see, you're just trying to be mysterious, right? Your real purpose is to elicit the prisoner's gaffe... Is that what it's like? For that purpose, you say that you already know the prisoner.
Things come to shake things up..."
"That's right...it's just...I planned to launch an attack from the beginning, because I always knew he was suspicious." Kirigiri pointed at Owada as if it were a matter of course.
"But...why...you think Owada-kun is suspicious." Naegi said.
"I understand... The reason why this happened is because Owada-kun's name for Chihiro suddenly changed... Even he didn't know it..." Lin Xiao said and looked at the pale Owada
Said: "Owada, maybe you don't realize that you call men and women differently... For women, you use the woman to call them, and for men, you should call them that guy...
.”
"After the murder incident, Owada-kun started calling Chihiro that guy... That's what I thought at that time, Owada-kun, you already know that Chihiro is a boy..." Kiri
Say it.
Yamada said: "You notice such trivial things?"
"Are you a witch? What a terrifying woman!" Xiang, the genocide said.
"It's not me who's not scary... What's really scary is the person who kills people, his companions..." Kirigiri said.
"There is another place. After it was discovered that Chihiro was a boy, the scene of the crime was actually the boys' locker room... That means that only men have the possibility of killing, excluding me, Naegi, Togami... only
That leaves Yamada, Ishimaru, and Owada...and among them, the one who has a closer relationship with Chihiro is you, Owada, right..."
Lin Xiao said.
Naegi said: "Owada-kun...is it really...you?"
"You're not killing people!" Owada shouted... "And what are you doing from beginning to end... I just started asking questions, always finding faults, picking out words... You're trying to make me
Are you being interrogated as a prisoner?"
Ishimaru said: "That's right! It's impossible for brothers to do such a thing. Are you looking for trouble?"
"Indeed...it's not very convincing as a basis." Kirigiri said.
"But it's really troublesome... there are no clues anymore..." Ceres said.
"Hoo ho ho, it's finally time for me to appear!" Yamada said.
"Speaking of which, Yamada once said that he found evidence related to the prisoner," Naegi said.
"Really? What kind of evidence is that!" Asahina said.
Yamada was silent for a moment and then waved his hand and said: "Well... think about it calmly... maybe it doesn't matter at all... Don't have such high expectations..."
Ye Yin scratched his head and said: "...Don't lose your confidence so quickly...Okay, show it to me quickly?"
Yamada said: "It's all about this...that..."
Saying this, Yamada took out an electronic student handbook... Genocide Sho said: "Oh? What is that."
"It's an electronic student handbook... I found it after it fell somewhere and picked it up..." Yamada said.
"I remember Qianxun's electronic student handbook disappeared from the scene, right? In that case, this electronic student handbook...is his thing?" Lin Xiao said.
"Sure enough, it must be that one! I thought so too, could this be something from Chihiro-den?" Yamada said.
Asahina said: "So, will there be clues about the prisoner?"
Yamada lowered his head and said: "...I think so...but this one is broken so it can't be started..."
Ceres said: "I'm afraid the criminal destroyed the evidence when destroying it after the murder..."
"...But it's a bit strange...The electronic student handbook shouldn't be something that can be broken so easily, right?" Togami said.
"Well, you're right...it's a very powerful and wonderful thing." Monokuma said.
Ceres said: "But in fact, it is indeed broken, and so is Kuwata-kun's in the entrance hall... You are still confidently boasting that they are completely broken."
"That's right...but it's a mystery, so why is the electronic student handbook broken?" Monokuma said.
Naegi said: "Monokuma has mentioned it before, this electronic student handbook has weaknesses..."
Monokuma said: "Oh, it's true that I may have accidentally let it slip at that time, but I haven't told anyone the details of the weakness..."
"But two of them have been broken in a row...Does this mean someone knows about this weakness?" Okami Sakura said.
Kirigiri said: "Hey, Monokuma, you should know, what is that weakness... exactly..."
Monokuma said: "Huh? Do you want me to say it?"
"In order for the school-level trial to proceed fairly, I think this is information that is necessary to know." Kirigiri said.
"But...if I tell you that...it will be difficult if someone follows suit." Monokuma said.
Asahina said: "What does it matter... Just tell me! We will never follow suit!"
"I really can't help it... I'm embarrassed to be asked like this by you... But I really don't want to imitate you." Monokuma said, "Then, I'll make a special statement... This
The only weakness of this invincible electronic student manual is that if it is exposed to high temperatures for a long time, it will completely break down due to overheating!"
"As expected! Because this electronic student handbook was dropped in the sauna!" Yamada said.
Lin Xiao analyzed: "However, the victim's electronic student handbook was found in the sauna... Maybe the criminal targeted this weakness and threw the handbook into the sauna..."
Okami Sakura said: "So, the prisoner knows? Knows the weakness of the electronic student handbook?"
Asahina said: "But how did the prisoner know? Monokuma said that he had never told anyone about this matter..."
Lin Xiao said: "I probably knew it accidentally... Owada... you and Ishimaru had a sauna endurance competition... At that time, your electronic student handbook... was broken, right? Thanks to this,
So you learned about the weaknesses of the electronic student handbook..."
"What...what did you say?" Owada said.
Ishimaru said: "Why? Why is this happening..."
Naegi said: "...I also remembered that Owada and Ishimaru-kun once had an endurance test in the sauna... At that time, Owada-kun entered the sauna wearing his uniform... That suit at that time
The uniform and the electronic student handbook are still inside, right? Only Owada knows about this, right? You know that the electronic handbook will be broken in the sauna!"
"Wait...give it to me...how is it possible...how can a brother kill someone...I will never admit it! Give me a clear basis!" Ishimaru said.
Kirigiri said: "If the reasoning is correct... then Owada-kun must have destroyed his electronic student handbook before..."
Ceres said: "In other words, if Owada-kun's student handbook is really broken... then it means that the reasoning just now is correct."
"My electronic student handbook is still open!" Owada said.
"Look, the reasoning is indeed wrong! It's impossible for brothers to kill people!" Ishimaru said.
Lin Xiao said: "Oh? In that case, Owada, is your electronic student handbook really your own?"
"You...what do you mean?" Owada said.
"In the entrance hall, there is a broken electronic student handbook... Actually, that handbook belongs to you Owada..." Lin Xiao said.
"Wait a minute, what were you talking about from just now!" Ishimaru said.
Naegi said; "Kawada-kun's electronic student handbook, if the only weakness Monokuma said is true, then the one that is broken at the entrance is not his handbook at all! In other words, Yamada-kun, you made an exchange, right?"
"I replaced my broken electronic student handbook with Kuwata-kun's electronic student handbook... Monokuma can prove this. Kuwata-kun's handbook should not be broken," Lin Xiao said.
"That's right, that level of punishment will not damage the electronic student handbook!" Monokuma said.
"That is to say, what you are holding now, Owada, is Kuwada-kun's student handbook... This is the best evidence." Lin Xiao said.
"So...Owada-kun? Can you still defend yourself now? If you say I made a mistake, I have nothing to say." Naegi said.
"...You guy." Owada said.
"What's wrong? Come on, brother, tell me he made a mistake... Yes, he made a mistake. Isn't it obvious that he made a mistake? The reasoning just now is all guesswork, just reasoning! There must be a mistake.
..." Ishimaru said.
Lin Xiao said: "In that case, how about reviewing the entire incident from the beginning? All the truth will be revealed here!"
"Then, let's start with the review before the incident happened...Last night, Ceres saw Qianxun in the warehouse. At that time, he was secretly preparing something. Then Ceres discovered him and put it in his hand.
Something was put into the sports bag...yes, it was a blue sweatshirt...Qianxun, who was holding the bag, stuffed the sweatshirt into the sports bag at Ceres' reminder, and said that she
There was something urgent, so I left immediately... and that time period was about to reach night time... But Qianxun, who was holding a sports bag, ignored the agreement of the night time period and still went somewhere...
.That place is the scene of the crime, the men's locker room...But the victim who should be a female, why can he enter the men's locker room...?"
"Because of Qianxun's true identity, he is actually a boy... So, he used his electronic student handbook to enter the men's locker room... In the men's locker room, Qianxun made an appointment with someone
Okay, so we met, and that person was the culprit in this incident! Then the culprit took advantage of the moment when Qianxun wasn't paying attention, and used the dumbbell as a murder weapon... to attack him! At that time, on the posters and carpets in the men's locker room,
All stained with splatters of blood..."
"I'm afraid he killed someone on impulse... If he was prepared, it was too unplanned... So the prisoner hurriedly started to disguise himself... The first thing was the blood-stained carpet.
....and the posters were recovered at the same time....Then the prisoner moved the body to the women's locker room....If you want to enter the women's locker room, of course you need to use the girls' electronic student handbook for boys.....
Even so, it does not mean that the prisoners are limited to girls... In the entrance hall, there are manuals for Mai Madoka and Enoshima... If you use which one, even if anyone enters the women's locker room
It can also be done..."
"This can be said to be a trap of the Monokuma rules. Although the electronic student handbook does not allow lending to others, it does not say that you cannot borrow from others...or take it from dead students...then follow the instructions
The prisoners who entered the women's locker room in this way used the carpets and posters that had just been recycled to carry out some kind of action... They exchanged the men's locker room and the women's locker room, which was the exchange site! But this time the incident came to
It’s not over yet...Due to the intervention of Ten Gods, the first discoverer of the corpse, the incident has become more complicated..."
"Togami-kun who entered the scene... used the extension cord placed in the library and did something... Yes, Togami-kun used the extension cord to fix Chihiro's body in a cross shape...
...Not only that, Togami-kun also used the blood of the victim to leave bloody words on the scene... It looked like the crime of the genocide Sho... Just to make us misunderstand... However
At that time...while Togami-kun was doing his disguise...the criminal who had disposed of Chihiro's sports bag and other things came to the sauna...in order to get the last evidence...
.Dispose of Qianxun’s electronic student handbook..."
"Then, as the prisoner expected, the electronic student handbook broke under the heat of the sauna...The prisoner already knew...the electronic student handbook would be damaged by the heat of the sauna.
The thing that was broken...If you want to say why, it's because before that, the prisoner's own electronic student handbook was broken in the sauna...! This is the whole incident, and the real prisoner is
Owada!"
Ishimaru said: "Wait...impossible...what is the evidence? Is there any evidence?"
"....If the reasoning so far is correct, Owada-kun must have exchanged student handbooks with Kuwada-kun, so let's bring the handbooks here to confirm each other..."
Lin Xiao said.
"...There's no need for that..." Owada suddenly whispered.
Everyone looked at him and he whispered: "...Yes, that's right...I was the one who killed..."
Ishimaru said with an expression of disbelief: "Brother...what are you talking about?"
"We have reached this point... we have to give up..." Owada said.
"Wait...why on earth do you want to do this kind of thing...why do you want to attack Qianxun...you are just impulsive, right?" Naegi said.
"It seems that the discussion has come to an end...Pfft...then the voting begins!" Monokuma announced.
When everything came to an end, the voting results designated Owada... Monokuma said: "Congratulations, you have found the real culprit in this incident!"
But why would a guy like Owada do such a thing? Chihiro can trust him very much...even she is willing to share secrets with him...but...(To be continued)
