Danganronpa SHSL Loner (Fem!Reader x Danganronpa)

Chapter 18 /II/

"Kirigiri-san?!"
"(F/n)-chan?!"

Naegi and Asahina shouted in unison. But there's only Kirigiri who walked in, which means Asahina shouted out of hope.

"Wait, where's (f/n)-chan?" Asahina asked, afraid about the worse situation.

"Let's just wait," she answered.

But it only takes a minute for you to appear. Yes, you and Kirigiri were actually back right when the investigation time ended. But Kirigiri insisted that she should has a quick investigation. Agree or not, you have to accompany her since she is not a type to go exam without studying. Then you went somewhere for a while.

In the elevator, Kirigiri did tell Naegi about what key it is, but she didn't tell him about what you both do afterwards.

Class Trial Begin!!

Togami:
"The culprit is either Kirigiri or (S/n)!"

Right off the bat?!

You:
"Wait, whose class trial is this?"

Asahina:
"It's Ikusaba Mukuro's, right?"

You and Mukuro shivered down to your spines as Asahina answered.

What the hell am I going to do about this?!

The corpse was found at 9 AM, the last time you were there with the others was 10 PM. That means the murder occur between 10 PM to 9 AM. Togami said that he found a broken Monokuma so he, Asahina, Hagakure, Fukawa and Mukuro was up all night to work on it to see how it always works. To make it short, the murder occured between 7.30 AM to 9 AM because it wasn't wet of sprinkel's water. But Kirigiri said she found vinil sheet which must used to cover the corpse from sprinkel's water.

While Kirigiri trying to deny accusation directed to her, your head is busy thinking about what to do. Ikusaba Mukuro is still in one piece and currenctly standing in this very class trial, but nobody know that except you, Mukuro and Junko.

Maybe it's best not to tell them now. Let's just see how it goes.

You:
"Rather than taking the conclusion too quick, why don't we talk about the weapon?"

Asahina:
"The weapon? It's the knife, right?"

You:
"That's right, but something seems weird about it. It seems that the culprit smear the blood on the lab coat and wear it to the corpse. But I have a conclusion. The culprit must somehow poisoned the victim and then stab the victim to make it somehow she killed that way. The one who kept that dagger must be the culprit. There's no mistake of it, right, Naegi?"

Asahina:
"You're... right."

Naegi:
"B-but there's nothing written about poison in Monokuma's file."

You:
"How do you expect something given by our enemy will always be true?"

Monokuma:
"Hey, hey, we don't have much time here. So Naegi's the most suspicious one isn't he? Why don't we just start voting?"

Naegi:
"Wait, don't you think this class trial is a bit weird? We don't even know or confirm who she is and Monokuma told us to do this class trial."

Hagakure:
"I think you're right."

Naegi:
"This must be your trap, right, Monokuma?"

Monokuma:
"Ha? Aren't you planning something too? Usually the culprit can't stop denying, no? Okay, time's up! The class trial is over so you don't need to debate anymore. Now is the voting time!"

Naegi:
"No, there's something weird about this! What's with 'time out'?! We never have limit time!"

Everyone seems confused to vote, but then all votes goes to Naegi. Guilt is shown on everyone's face except for Togami.

It's hard to accuse someone innocent and letting him die unfair. You all are actually wrong on the culprit, but this is indeed a trap to execute Kirigiri, you or Naegi. So even though Naegi isn't the culprit, he will be the only one executed.

After School Lesson

Naegi is in a room filled with school desks. In the center is a large conveyor belt where his desk is located. As he sits there, it goes backwards towards the end of the room. Behind him at the end of the conveyor belt is a large block resembling a trash compactor that slams down every few seconds intending to crush whatever is underneath. Above is a television showing Monokuma's face on it. As his desk moves backwards, Monokuma dressed as a teacher appears in front of him and attempts to teach him a lesson in class.

At the last second, the Monokuma on the television is replaced with Alter Ego for a moment.

Alter Ego?

The compactor stops just as Naegi is about to be crushed to death. The conveyor belt keeps moving on and a door in the floor opens. Naegi and the desk then fall backwards through the very large and deep hole in the floor while Monokuma looks on in panic.

Monokuma:
"Huh? Huh, huh, huh?? What happened?"

Asahina:
"H-hey, isn't that..."

Hagakure:
"Yeah, it's Alter Ego."

Togami:
"Then Naegi isn't the real culprit?"

Monokuma:
"Don't tell me, that program has planted a virus? I knew it I shouldn't have let it go!"

Monokuma started to hit its head on the table and blackboard until its glasses broke. You smirked.

You:
"It seems that your plan failed."

Monokuma:
"I wonder about that. The underground room is filled with garbage. He will die slowly of hunger and thirst, maybe it's the most torturing punishment for him!"

And then it laughed maniacally.

~Flashback~

You and Kirigiri are heading towards the red door after brief investigation. "Wait for a minute, Kirigiri," you run towards the male restroom on the second floor. Alter Ego seems to be happy seeing you. It has been a while since anyone visitted him. Well, you don't have any choice except you want Monokuma know about him.

"Please get in the way of execution," you typed to him.

After getting answer, you quickly run back to the red door.

~Flashback End~

"Let's go, Kirigiri," you tapped her shoulder. "I'm sure you don't want your boyfriend suffer too long."

"Correction, waiting," she answered and turned her heels. You explained to her of what you told Alter Ego.

"Wait, so you don't correct the 'boyfriend' part? I see," you enjoyed watching blush slowly noticeable.

"No, I didn't-"

"Don't waste your breath, just walk."

But something keep bothering you. That's a very simple yet complicated question.

"Do you know who you really are?"
