Nijuri Kito was found dead in the dorms.. Meaning there is another killer among the 13 of us trapped in Hopes Peak Academy. Or is this really Hopes Peak? Would Hopes Peak allow a killing game like this to happen?

I need to start investigating before the trial starts... I analysed the room. The future seems to be all messed.. There almost a dent in the table.. There were a lot of blood on some of the furniture. There were a few scratch marks on the floor. It seems like there was a struggle between Nijuri and the culprit.. I went over to the desk where Nijuri kept his journal most of the time.. I think. There was also a glass of water there as well.. I touched it... It's still cold.. I'm sure there was ice in this. I shouldn't drink this in case the poison was in this glass. I went over to Chokkei and Shiro who were checking the body.
"There's no doubt Nijuri died by poison.. But it's the blow to the head that's confusing me, wouldn't that have killed Nijuri in one hit?" Chokkei wondered.
"No, I don't think so. The cut on Nijuri's head isn't that bad.. But it probably knocked them unconscious." I said.
"The idiot is most likely right." Shiro said.
"You could literally mean any one of us, Shiro." Chokkei said.
"The grey haired idiot." Shiro rolled his eyes at us.
"A-anyway! Did you find anything that could've been used to poison Nijuri?" Chokkei asked. I shook my head. Chokkei sighed, and went back to checking Nijuri's body. Nijuri's right hand which was one the bed looked like it was gripping onto something. I looked at that... A glass bottle? Strange. I checked out the glass bottle.. It doesn't say anything of poison, it doesn't even have a label.. I smelled the bottle it doesn't even smell of anything, I'm sure if this was poison it would've smelled like something.. It fact it was completely dry. I looked at the bed sheet, it was slightly wet. I just assumed that whatever was in this spilled out. I decided to look at Nijuri's journal. And checked the most recent thing he wrote. 

"Day 13.
I got Nagamine's secret note, I'm sure that's he's the mastermind behind all of this. I need to kill him. I want this killing game to end more than everyone else."

.....I turned the page to day 15 which as was just yesterday.

"Day 15.
I met up with my accomplice. Me and (name covered it blood) plan to kill Sora. If things go wrong (name covered in blood) Will help me stay alive, or kill Sora for me.
Things didn't go as planned. Nagamine fought back. He got away. I managed injured him, but those guys saved him. If they had just let him bleed, I would've killed him. I found.." 

That where it ends... This will be a big help in the trial. Akisu was in the room, I went to go talk to her.
"It sucks that Nijuri died. Too bad that I never got to study him.." Akisu sighed.
"Alright.. Did you find anything?" I asked.
"Not much. But I did find Akio's note in Nijuri pocket." Akisu said. Didn't Nijuri get my note? How did Nijuri get Akio's?
"Haaah?? I thought the Chokkei Cult threw or tore the secret notes?" Reiki suddenly said behind us.
"It's not a cult!" Chokkei yelled.
"I think someone planted this is Nijuri's pocket.." I said.
"That's what I'm thinking too." Akisu agreed.
"Well looks like nobody wants to here what Reiki found." Reiki said about to walk away.
"Wait! What did you find..?" I asked.
"That got your attention yay!" Reiki jumped.
"Get to the point, waste of space!" Shiro said.
"....Fuck you. Well Reiki found this weird bottle thing." Reiki showed us a flask.. Didn't I give that to Akio?
"Where did you find this?" I asked Reiki.
"Reiki doesn't know! They just found it on the second floor in the power room."  Reiki told us. Power room...? 
"I'm gonna go investigate the power room." I told everyone. Without another word, I left to the power room. I opened the door, and a few people were there. Akio, Ruke, and Emiko. I went over to the closet. I saw a few drops of blood, on the floor. That was either from me or Nijuri.. I think. I open the closet... Almost everything was normal. Except... I saw bloody cloth in the corner of the room. This wasn't here before. I saw something written on the floor in blood. 4 1 0? Is this some kind of dying message?.. I looked around more, I saw a small puddle of liquid.. on the ground. I didn't touch it for many reasons, I also saw a gun bullet on the ground which had slight spatters of blood on it. Everything other than that was still in place from what I remember. I left the closet, and went to go talk to Ruke.
"Man I can't believe we have to do this crap again." Ruke scratched his head.
"I know... But did you guys find anything?" I asked.
"No, nothing unusual.. We did find this... Weird black ribbon thing in the closet though." Emiko showed me. How the hell did I not realize this sooner?! I usually wear a grey school girl sailor collar, with a black ribbon above my jacket. Akio walked up to us.
"Now that I look at it.. Sora, you wear a black ribbon with that sailor collar, don't you?" Akio asked.
"Yeah.. I do. But the ribbon has gone missing." I said.
"This is probably it." Akio said. Emiko handed me the ribbon, and I tied it to the sailor collar like I do everyday. It must've fell off, when I was fighting Nijuri..
