After that, Kirigiri, Lin Xiao, and Naegi acted together... and then came to the warehouse of the art room.
Kirigiri froze when he saw the corpse, then touched the corpse without hesitation and began to investigate it carefully.
Then she said: "Look at this."
Following her gaze, Lin Xiao saw the watch on Ishimaru's wrist... "By the way, what happened to his watch..."
Naegi asked.
Lin Xiao observed it and said: "The watch is broken...the hands of the watch have always stopped there, right?"
Kirigiri said: "Maybe it was broken while fighting with someone...and the hands are stopped at more than 6 o'clock..."
"That is to say...this watch broke at about 6 o'clock..." Naegi said.
Kirigiri said: "However, at that time last night, I remembered that Ishimaru-kun's watch was still in good condition..."
"That is to say, whether the watch was still broken last night, it means that the watch was not broken at 6 o'clock last night...but at 6 o'clock this morning." Lin Xiao said.
Kirigiri said: "That's not the only thing worth noting. Look at Ishimaru-kun's left hand...it seems to be holding something..."
Lin Xiao saw that it looked like a white note... Miaomu also exclaimed: "It's true..."
Kirigiri said: "Mr. Naegi, take it out and take a look..."
Naegi was silent for a moment and said doubtfully: Am I...
Kirigiri said: "The body has already begun to undergo rigor mortis... This kind of strenuous work still needs to be left to boys, right?"
Then Naegi reluctantly grabbed Ishimaru-kun's already cold hand, and took out the thing with a slightly nervous expression.
"It's...a scrap of paper..." Naegi said.
Kirigiri said: "Is this the only thing you have in your hand?"
"Didn't you write anything?" Lin Xiao said.
Miaomu shook his head...showed it to Lin Xiao, and found that there was nothing special...
Kirigiri said: "....Well, let's start investigating Yamada-kun's body... maybe there are other clues."
Lin Xiao said: "As for Yamada... I think it's strange how the prisoner carried such a huge person..."
Naegi said: "That's true. The health room where the corpse was first found is on the first floor, and the art room warehouse is on the first floor... Such a huge corpse was transported from the first floor to the first floor without causing any trouble to us.
Attention..."
Kirigiri said at this time: "Well, let's take a look at this..."
Naegi glanced at it and said, "Crumped up...paper?"
Yamada did hold a ball of white paper in his hand.... "Let's confirm what's written inside."
Then I opened it and looked at the paper... It said... "I found the exit to escape. It would be terrible if Monokuma finds out, so I have to gather in the physics room at 6 a.m. without telling everyone!"
Kirigiri said: "I seem to have heard this content somewhere..."
"By the way, it's the same as what Hagakure-kun said...then what he said is true." Naegi said.
"That being said...is there a slight difference..." Lin Xiao said.
Kirigiri said: "Hagakure seems to have told him to go to the recreation room at 1 o'clock in the night..."
Naegi said: "If you put it this way, the time is different...Does this mean anything..."
Kirigiri said: "One corner of this note was torn..."
"Maybe there is some connection." Lin Xiao said.
"Well, the victims of this murder incident all carried their electronic student handbooks with them..." Kirigiri said.
"Oh? That means it has nothing to do with the electronic student handbook, right?" Naegi said.
"Although it doesn't matter, it might be useful somewhere," Kirigiri said.
Then the school-level trial began... Monokuma said in the video: "Well, the school-level trial is about to begin... The school-level trial... is fleeting like fireworks, in the collision between life and death.
The sparkle of the soul that was wiped out! So all students... please gather at the old place... Phew hoo hoo, see you later."
The school-level trial officially begins...after everyone is ready.
Monokuma said: "First of all, let me briefly explain the school-level trial. The result of the school-level trial is determined by your vote... It is to find the real criminal and discuss it...
Then a vote will be held...If the vote is wrong, everyone will be punished except the prisoner...and the prisoner who deceived everyone will graduate smoothly! So, what should be discussed first?"
At this time, Asahina interrupted: "The prisoner is already clear!..."
"???...Ah? Is this happening?" Monokuma said.
Ceres said: "There was no alibi when a series of murders and corpse disappearances occurred. More importantly, Hagakure Yasuhiro appeared in some cosplay form..."
"No matter what you think...the culprit is you...!" Asahina pointed at Hagakure.
Ye Yin scratched his head and defended: "So I made a mistake... I just... fell asleep all the time."
The genocide said: "Shut up! You criminal!..."
Ye Yin said: "I just don't want to be told by you!..."
Yes, you, the genocide, are a more heinous criminal than him...
Ceres said: "Ye Yin-kun, although it is regrettable...but we also have a basis..."
Lin Xiao said: "In Ye Yin's room, I found the costume design drawing of the robot...a cardboard box."
"The carton contains all the parts needed to make that costume..." Naegi said.
"Everything was found in Ye Yin's room. This is a mountain of ironclad evidence! You made that costume and wore it on your body to commit one crime after another..." Ceres said
.
Ye Yin stammered: "So...so...it's not me...I don't know anything!"
Lin Xiao said: "Jun Ye Yin, do you mean you won't offend?"
Ye Yin nodded and said: "It's really not me..."
"Then let's discuss now about whether Lord Ye Yin is a prisoner." Lin Xiao said.
Ceres said: "The design drawings found in Ye Yin's room... these are definitely your things, right? This can explain everything! In other words, Ye Yin, you are the prisoner!"
Ye Yin said: "I... am innocent... This is a trap! It's a conspiracy!"
"Hagakure...why do you want to kill...?" Asahina asked.
"Wait...wait for me..." Ye Yin argued in distress.
"...Yes, it is not yet completely confirmed that the prisoner is Hagakure... Was that design really drawn by Hagakure?" Naegi said.
Lin Xiao said: "Oh? Have you discovered anything new?"
Naegi nodded and said, "Everyone, when the artificial intelligence disappeared, Hagakure-kun wrote a note to gather everyone... I have seen the handwriting and design drawings on it... They are completely different. This
I can confirm one thing."
Kirigiri said: "If that's the case...maybe we can't completely identify it as belonging to the same person..."
Ceres said: "Perhaps this is Ye Yin's secret...it's just that the handwriting is different."
The master said: "Wait a minute... When I think about it this way, I feel that it's not just the handwriting that is different, it's like they are two people..."
"Originally... I couldn't do such a delicate technical task as using different notes..." Ye Yin said.
Lin Xiao looked at his flustered and clumsy look and felt that what he said did make sense.
Asahina said: "Then... Naegi, what do you mean... Hagakure is not a prisoner?"
Togami said: "It's not just Naegi, I feel the same way..."
"Although I say this, I am also a little skeptical. Everything is too coincidental. First of all, this attack. It is obvious that the plan is very thorough, but the ending is inexplicably hasty... This should be illogical...
"After all, if Ye Yin was a prisoner, how could he get stuck in the storage box of the swimming pool... let alone leave evidence of being a robot," Lin Xiao said.
"In that case... Who is the true identity of that justice warrior? Is it like what Hagakure said, is there someone else wearing another similar costume?!..." Asahina said.
Naegi said: "The true identity of that suspicious person... Are you leaving the question to me at this time?... But if you think about it carefully, the true identity of that righteous robot is other than Hagakure-kun... You can't think of anyone else."
People."
"It's true. No one except Ye Yin can wear that costume, and no other costume was found in the end...So, the suspicious person's true identity is Ye Yin!"
Lin Xiao said.
"But you all said just now that you think Hagakure is not a criminal... But now it turns out that the suspicious person is him... What you said is too strange!" Asahina said.
Togami said: "There is nothing strange...Although the suspicious person's real identity is Hagakure...but he is not the criminal!"
The great god said: "What does this sentence mean?"
"That's right...the culprit in this incident has nothing to do with that suspicious person." Togami said.
Naegi said: "Isn't this too subjective..."
The genocide said: "Wow... famous reasoning..."
Ceres said: "...Do you have any evidence? That suspicious person is not the criminal..."
Togami said: "Before that, we still have things to figure out... let's get started..."
"Hey! Don't pretend to be mysterious with your clothes..." Asahina said.
"Everything has a sequence..." Togami said.
"Okay, then let's listen to your reasoning." Lin Xiao said.
"Then... what should we do? What are the things that must be clarified first?" the master said.
Togami said: "About the method of transporting Ishimaru's body... When transporting that guy's body, it seems that something was used..."
"It's a cart and a blue plastic sheet... Both Miaomu and I investigated this very clearly," Lin Xiao said.
"Well... let me give you a rough explanation... Ishimaru-kun's body disappeared from the physics preparation room. When it was rediscovered in the art warehouse... his body was wrapped in plastic cloth.
The piece of blue plastic sheet was the same as the one placed in the physical preparation room... When the prisoner transported Ishimaru-kun's body out of the physical preparation room... he used
The plastic sheet there...is to prevent blood stains from being left when moving the body..."
The master said: "The matter about the plastic sheet is somewhat clear, but what about the cart?"
Lin Xiao said: "When I first discovered Ishimaru-kun's body in the physics preparation room, there were indeed two carts there... but after the body disappeared... the carts also disappeared with it.
..."
"After that, when Ishimaru-kun's body was found again in the art warehouse...the body and the cart were both there..." Naegi said.
"It means that the body was brought here on a cart... Is that what you want to say? But are you remembering it wrong?" Ceres said.
Ceres said: "When Ishimaru-kun's body was first discovered in the physics preparation room, was there really a cart there...? The cart was originally used to transport statues in the art room.
Something, right? The fact that the cart is in the physical preparation room is very unnatural... In fact, it was placed in the art warehouse from the beginning, but you misunderstood that it had been moved... wasn't it?
..."
Ten Gods said: "That makes sense..."
Ceres said: "Please don't take my words seriously, Naegi-kun, because no one has any expectations for you... Your image is that of a character who always gets the answers wrong. This is a well-known fact...
..”
Lin Xiao said: "That's a coincidence. I happen to be in the same camp as Naegi... Then let you hear the evidence that proves that the cart was moved from the physical preparation room to the art warehouse... That cart
There is no doubt that the cart has been moved...because when we found the cart in the art warehouse, we found blood stains on its wheels...matching traces of rolling wheels.
, there was also a pool of blood left in the physical preparation room... The prisoner unintentionally got the wheels of the cart stained with blood when he transported the body out of the physical preparation room... And it stayed like that... until he moved to the fine arts
In the warehouse...this is the basis...the cart used to transport Ishimaru-kun's body!"
Togami said: "...Okay, that's enough, right? It's just a supplementary explanation. It's time to get back to the topic, right...?"
Asahina said: "That's right...it's the topic of justice warriors not being criminals...if the prisoners are not justice warriors...then what's going on?"
The great god said: "Asahina... I don't think this has anything to do with any warrior..."
"Then, that suspicious person is not the culprit in this incident. Let's start a discussion." Togami said.
Togami said: "The prisoner killed Ishimaru in the physical preparation room... and then took his body away, right?"
"The body was wrapped in plastic sheeting...and placed on a cart for transportation..." Asahina said.
Naegi said: "I remember that cart should have no handle..."
Asahina said: "Even if there is no handle...as long as you bend down...there will be no problem pushing the cart..."
"The final place to move the corpse is the art warehouse!" said the genocide.
"Bend down...it seems impossible, right?" Lin Xiao said.
Ye Yin said: "Yes! How could I bend down?"
"Now, you understand, there is basically no possibility that the suspicious person is a criminal." Togami said.
"...Indeed, first of all, it is possible to push a cart without a handle by bending down...But the costume on the suspicious person this time...can he make that kind of posture? Bending down
?It seems impossible!" Lin Xiao said.
"Let's think about it... When we were all confirming that outfit... Wearing that outfit, not only could we not see our feet... we couldn't bend our waist at all... That's it.
Right?" Lin Xiao said.
"...It's true that this is true...Since I can't bend down, it seems difficult to push a cart without a handle..." the master said.
"Of course we don't rule out... Then it is also possible to use other tools to push the cart." Lin Xiao said.
Ceres said: "Well, that doesn't mean we can completely rule out suspicious people..."
Togami said: "That's absolutely not the case. If the prisoner is really wearing a suit that makes it difficult to move... Wrapping the body in plastic cloth, is it possible to do such delicate work? Isn't it a problem?"
"Is it okay to just take off those clothes when carrying the body?" said the genocide.
"No, this is impossible... We discovered when we found Mr. Ye Yin that the clothes couldn't be taken off with our own strength," Lin Xiao said.
Naegi said: "It is precisely because the suit has a metal buckle that it is impossible to take off the suit when carrying the body...which means that it is difficult for the suspicious person to commit this incident!"
Asahina said: "Is it true that I can't take it off by myself? Could it be that Ye Yin is lying?..."
"If the clothes are really designed by Ye Yin, maybe he has some special way to take them off," Ceres said.
Ye Yin said: "No, no, this is impossible...I won't lie."
Naegi said: "If Hagakure was a real criminal, if he could take off his clothes, he wouldn't appear in front of everyone in that way, right?"
Lin Xiao said: "Obviously, someone wants to frame the blame. After all, seeing Ye Yin's look... it's like saying, come on, doubt me, I am the criminal."
Ye Yin said: "That's right! That's right!"
"Is that... is it true...? The justice warrior cannot push the cart..." Asahina said.
"That is to say, the prisoner who used the cart to carry the body was not Ye Yin wearing the uniform of a justice warrior..." the great god said.
"No, please wait a moment... Have you forgotten? The photo I took... You should have seen it. In the photo, Yamada-kun was taken away by a suspicious person... If that
If the suspicious person is not a criminal, what is going on with that image? Also, didn’t even the murdered Yamada-kun have such a testimony?..." Seres said.
Lin Xiao said: "Indeed, Mr. Yamada also said that his injuries were caused by justice warriors..."
"As long as this fact exists, this conclusion should not be shaken...The prisoner is the suspicious person, Lord Ye Yin. This is absolutely true..." Ceres said.
Asahina said: "That's it. Sure enough, that's it!"
Ye Yin said: "Wait a moment..."
Kirigiri said: "It's too early to draw conclusions now... Before that, wouldn't it be better to discuss other possibilities? Rather than being limited by a single perspective... From multiple aspects
If we look at it from a different perspective, we should be closer to the truth..."
"But...how to do it specifically!" the great god said.
Kirigiri said: "Let's review this series of events from the beginning. Maybe we can detect new facts..."
The genocide said: "It's really troublesome..."
The Great God said: "But, we are risking our lives... We can't do it unless we find the culprit. Even if we make it more troublesome, there is nothing we can do..."
"Then let's review it from the beginning." Asahina said.
"This morning, there were only four people gathered in the cafeteria: me, Naegi, Lin Xiao, Asahina and Kirigiri... After waiting for a long time and no one else came, we started to look for them... That was 8
It’s about something..." the great god said.
"Shortly after we split up, Kirigiri disappeared..." Asahina said.
"Later, Asahina found Ceres in the entertainment room upstairs... and quickly called Naegi and me..." Ogami said.
Ceres said: "I was unconscious for an hour because I was attacked by a suspicious person... In other words, I was attacked 1 hour before I was discovered by everyone...
Around 7 o'clock..."
The great god said: "At that time, based on the photos taken by Ceres, we learned that the suspicious person was also wearing a strange COSPLAY suit... He must be the Justice Warrior... and the Justice Warrior took Yamada
The fact that he was captured was also confirmed... We started searching for the suspicious person, and after meeting with Fukawa and Togami, we found the injured Yamada in the library upstairs... We took the injured Yamada to
I took them to the health room on the first floor and started searching for suspicious persons again..."
Things are confusing...What exactly is going on...(To be continued)
