Yet the Beautiful Maid

It was morning, the day of the magic show Himiko had planned us. Himiko Yumeno, the Ultimate Magician although she refers herself as a young mage indeed. Her preparations were held by with Angie Yonaga aside, the Ultimate Artist who had adored the God Atua. As the large gymnasium we were gathered all, the show began.

A big tank seemingly filled with water, and above it all was another smaller tank filled with piranhas. I look to my side seeing the sight of Kirumi. She looked exhausted, she did helped Himiko and Angie for the preparations and other inquiries..
Although her mind tinkers to a different well. A timer has begun and sank as well Himiko into the tank, Gonta on the other hand was worried for Himiko's safety same as Shuichi observing the show. Sadly, the timer has ticked off to its end.

Fell as the piranhas sunk in the tank, they rushed to open the curtains. Yet no one had witnessed Himiko, though another had taken place. Ryoma Hoshi, the Ultimate Tennis Player with an interesting backstory. Unaware of his sense, he is soon to be devoured by the piranhas. Eating him every last inch of himself were. And all that was left was a pile of bones who was all left of Ryoma's belongings. Surprisingly though, one had left the scene. Himiko had escaped the tank. Frantically everyone had tried to save him though it was all too late, I felt bad seeing the sight of Kiibo the Ultimate Robot being thrown onto the tank. Although it's quite a sight to see how people prioritize a human other than an object. As everyone had helped to clean up the messy flood, it was the start of investigation.

The second trial has only begun its way to an end, as the investigation starts. The only details of the autopsy were pathetically useless, key eye witness at the moment was vague since everyone had presence but yet alone Himiko had turn in the right time as suspect. As we all investigate I couldn't stop thinker on how Kirumi was odd, it may have been because she was exhausted still is dull for an excuse. I see how Shuichi opened up the curtains above, it was... open? It was suspicious indeed, I wonder if they would have additional clues there above. Everything was odd, never had it was to feel this uneasy.

"I never would've imagined such a cruel murder would happened at such a fun show... " I grinned continue to say, "Why would the culprit commit such a barbaric act? Did they wish to see us desperately panic in such a hurry?"

"As how you mentioned, I don't think that was a valid motivation if I recall. Although from this investigation we can clearly see that the culprit had linked the murder to Himiko's trick"

Shuichi responded with a slight discomforted look.

"Ah... I see, in that case the summary for now was that the culprit had been involved with the preparations and had made use, yes?" I asked. I was still hesitant as how the trick was performed and proposed a new objective with Shuichi, and that is to investigate the tricks of Himiko Yumeno's magic show.

As I walk my way towards the side of the tank I noticed a rope beside the staircase of the tank, a wet puddle and a peek at the clear compartment from the staircase. I had summarize by self that the possibilities that Himiko went through the door from the hidden compartment of the staircase, but that does not help on what concern of the ropes were for.

"The ropes, Shuichi is at an approximate of 65 feet in length if you are so curious to know."

"You can just tell by the look of the rope?" he responded.

"I have had.. numerous use of ways with my travels in different places as such villages where.. it was a common use." slipped a giggle I proceed, "When the sun rests and it was time for me to leave, had all the women of the village had yet requested me to stay for long."

The expression on Shuichi's looks gave me a pleasant feel on how disturbed he was indeed, fascinating.

On and on with the investigation, the bell had rung. It was time for the trial.
Debates had started and annoying comments on different perspectives. Himiko had claimed it was all magic with no hidden tricks. Suddenly Shuichi had pointed out that Ryoma's death was in a different time line.
Meaning had the corpse of this trial had been killed from an earlier time.
