(Also in the trial,rantaros like the second protagonist)

The second they entered the court room,shuichis eyes we t straight to the new portrait that had appeared.it was kokichis.

Kokichis portrait was now replacing the male.the red mark that crossed the picture was impossible to miss.it was clear as day.kokichi ouma had been murdered.a river of tears rolled down shuichis face as overwhelming despair filled his heart.

He couldn't deny it,all the clues led to him.the purple hair,the handwriting on the note,the figure of the body.shuichi couldn't deny the truth,his friend had been killed in the most brutal way he could imagine.

Monokuma explained the class trial like he always does and it started.

(For the trial I'm just putting the name of the characters who's speaking at the top of their line and anything without a name above it is the narrator speaking)

Kirumi:
Well,we know who the victim is.it's sadly kokichi as we can prove by the portrait of him.now,we need to establish the murderer is.

Rantaro:
This will be difficult as kokichi isolated himself in his room most of the time after the argument he had with maki.

Maki gritted her teeth.

Kaede:
Wouldn't it be a good idea to figure out what time the death accured?then we could find out about everyone's alibis!right shuichi?

Shuichi didn't respond.

Rantaro:
Shuichi?

He looked like he was deep in thought about something.

Rantaro's mind:
He still must be in shock that it was kokichi,the two seemed to have gotten close to each other with those few weeks.

Kaito:
Hey sidekick!you alright?

The detective finally snapped out of his daze.

Shuichi:
Huh-oh yeah,that would be a good idea kaede.

Kaede gave shuichi a concerned look,then carried on.

Shuichi:
It seemed quite recent.

Himiko:
So your saying that it was basically just before you got there?

Shiguji:
No,a death like that must have taken time to prepare.hanging the body up without anyone noticing would be a difficult task.

Himiko:
Who would wanna commit a crime that has so much effort into it?not me.

Tenko:
Himiko we already knew you didn't do it!how could a woman commit such a horrid crime,let alone you!

Ryoma:
The note looked like it was written before hand by the fact that the writing was so neat,it couldn't have been written on the grassy surface of the garden.the issue is,the hand writing isn't any of ours.does anyone know who's it could be?

Everyone shook their heads implying the answer no.

Angie:
Shuichi,Atua says you are hiding something!
