The students all returned to their podiums. Two more portraits now sat in podiums along with Takeshita's. Kenshi's, whose has GUILTY stamped on it in pink lettering, and Yua's, whose podium was crossed with a bright pink X.

Horiuchi took his space between Ikari and Kenjari again.

"We're back here again." Kezami said.

"Unfortunately." Emily sighed.

"Let's get this done, then." Rano said.

Horiuchi took a deep breath, feeling the wood once more.

Yua Aiko is dead

Another life taken.

And their killer...

Is someone in this room!

[Class Trial-Start! All Rise!]

"Now then." Monokuma began again. "I'll remind you of the rules here. During this trial, you will discuss the murder, present your arguments, and vote on 'whodunnit'! If you vote correctly, the culprit will be punished. If you pick the wrong person...I'll punish everyone besides the culprit, and they will earn the right to leave Hope's Peak!"

"Alright, now that that's over, discuss." Monokuma said.

"Erm, alright. Where should we start?" Emily asked.

"Same way we did last time. Let's start with the murder weapon, and let's also discuss the time of death, along with alibis." Horiuchi said.

"I have a theory." Ouchi said.

"Well then, let's discuss it." Said Ikari.

[Nonstop Debate-Begin!]

"Alright. So, I didn't really get a chance to see the body, or the Monokuma File. I'd left my notebook in my room. But what if she was the one who attacked the culprit?"

"Alright. Can you explain what happened?" Emily asked.

"Yeah. The culprit is just going for a walk at night, and then boom! Yua jumps them in the pool." Ouchi said.

[Truth Bullet-Bloodstain On Wall]

"There's something wrong with that!" Horiuchi said.

BREAK!

"Ouchi, no offense, but I think you got that backwards. I think the culprit got the jump on her. There's a bloodstain on the wall opposite the pool opening." Horiuchi said.

"Ah, geez. Sorry." Ouchi said.

"It's fine. We need to consider all possible outcomes here, or we all die." Kezami said.

"Gee, thanks, Mr. Bright and Cheery." Ide said. Rano snorted.

"Alright. But what about the weapon? Can we move on to that?" Emily said.
