The night hours of the second day are getting closer and closer. We briefly went through the room allocations for the night.

The rule we used was that the higher your bid is, the closer you are to the detective. Everyone will be arranged in this order, and the remaining rooms went to Kirigiri and Nanamura. The two of them didn't rely on guesswork to decide, and each chose the room they liked.


However, how the rooms are allocated tonight may not matter, because Minase, who has the 'Detective Rights', has already declared that he won't be saving anyone

However, how the rooms are allocated tonight may not matter, because Minase, who has the 'Detective Rights', has already declared that he won't be saving anyone.

If this continues, the criminal won't have any trouble killing anyone.

Who will be killed tonight? Who is the criminal's target?

Without 'Detective Rights', I can't do anything, I'm completely helpless. I became a detective because I wanted to save people, but I don't expect even for this wish to be fulfilled.

Maybe the criminal's next target is me. Or, maybe the criminal's target is Kirigiri.

Just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy. What should I do?

When I reached the stairs leading to the third floor, Kirigiri suddenly whispered to me.

"Yui-onēsama, are you ready?"

"Of course."

Just before, Kirigiri told me to stuff as much bottled drinking water into my backpack as possible. Although I don't understand what the point of this is, I followed her instructions and filled my backpack with bottled water.

"After everyone enter their rooms, you must come out to the corridor."

She seems to have some idea.

In this despair inducing situation, she still hasn't given up. She gives me hope.

Before 10 o'clock came, Minase was in the room behind closed doors. He has the 'Detective Rights' and his life is guaranteed. This evening must be a pleasant time for him.
