The Loveliest of Lies (Oumota)

What about the bloodstains?

Another looooong trial chapter, first part today, second part tomorrow :-)

---------

[The room returns to its original shape.]

Kirumi: [Relieved expression.] Let's find Saihara-kun's murderer and end this farce of a trial.

Kiibo: Haven't we gone through all of the evidence?

Miu: [Disbelievingly.] We're back at square-fucking-one? Again?

Kaito: [He scratches the back of his head.] I'm stumped. I have no idea who could've really murdered Shuichi.

Angie: [She smiles.] Everyone, please calm down. We just need to keep following the evidence. So, what do we have left?

[Kokichi cocks his head.]

[QUESTION: What evidence remains?]

Kokichi: What about the bloodstains?

Kirumi: I didn't leave them. It must've been the blackened. They seem to be a misdirection...but a pretty bizarre one.

Korekiyo: Hmm. Didn't they also contain some hairs and fibres?

Kiibo: Yes. [He preens.] I spotted them with my amazing camera eyes!

Kokichi: [Mockingly.] No one gives a shit about your eyes Kii-boy.

[Kiibo flinches.]

Kirumi: The fibres were black. But they came from Shuichi's clothing, not my gloves. As for the hairs...maybe they came from his killer?

Tsumugi: Oh! They're brown and-

[Miu yells in triumph, cutting her off.]

Miu: [She grins.] The blondes are in the clear! Yonaga and I are innocent!

Himiko: [Lazily.] Nyeh. So am I. I have red hair.

Korekiyo: And I have black hair-

Miu: Yeah, yeah. [She chuckles.] It means that one of the brunettes murdered Saihara! So, Harukawa, Hoshi, and Gonta are now our prime suspects!

[No one takes her seriously. Even Gonta.]

[Kokichi rolls his eyes at her.]

Kaito: [Impatiently.] Iruma, stop randomly accusing people. We need to be careful and debate this.

Miu: What is there to debate? I'm in the clear! I'll prove it! I'll find the killer!

[NONSTOP DEBATE]

Miu: Sooooo, Hoshi, Harukawa, and Gonta, start arguing!

[Maki glares at her venomously.]

Maki: You're an idiot. You have no idea what you're doing.

Miu: Nu-uh. I know exactly what I'm doing.

Ryoma: [Frustrated expression.] None of us murdered Saihara. We established that ages ago.

Miu: One of you has to be lying!

Angie: Wait! Aren't we just following the evidence? Miu has a good point!

Miu: Yonaga's right! The hairs are real! They-

Kokichi: [Annoyed expression.] You're really a dumb whore, aren't you Iruma-chan?

[BREAK]

[Iruma wilts at his sharp tone.]

Kokcihi: The prove that the hairs aren't real. Shirogane-chan looked at them and immediately knew that they were fake.
