"BREAKING NEWS: A High School Girl Found Dead In An Alleyway

On June 15th this year, a body of presumably a high school girl has been found in an alleyway near a local bakery. The girl seems to have been stabbed with a knife several times, since a knife was found in the area too.

It is unknown who the murderer is as of now, but the police officers and detectives are trying their best to solve this case.

Stay tuned for more updates."

"Yikes....a murder? Seriously?" Hibiki asked, looking at a friend's phone with worry. "Yeah! I can't believe someone would murder an innocent girl out of cold blood...!" The girl said in worry.

Hibiki then looked away as the voice of the girl rambling about how she's worried she'll get murdered next drowns out. 'This is probably Fukushu's doing....shit.' She thought, putting a finger on her chin as she thought about her assumption again.

Meanwhile, the news of the murder has also reached the Eden's Garden Academy students.

"Hey! Have you guys heard of that one murder?" Kai Monteago asked. Hearing that question, Damon Maitsu groaned in annoyance. "Yes. I saw the news. So?" "So....I'm just worried, that's all. I wouldn't wanna get myself killed, y'know? What would my followers do without me?!" The influencer asked in worry, while the debater rolled his eyes.

Hearing the news, Toshiko felt shaken, while Wolfgang felt...rather worried, yet suspicious of the situation at the same time. "....Toshiko?" He whispered to the matchmaker, who turned her head to look at him. "Y-yeah?" She responded. "Do you think whoever murdered the girl might have something to do with Fukushu?" The lawyer asked.

Toshiko thought about it for a moment, before nodding in slight hesitation. "I think so...? I'm not too sure about it yet, though...." Wolfgang only nodded at that, before turning his head to see Kai and Damon bicker. Sighing, Wolfgang got up from his seat to stop them.

...

Hey, have I ever told you there's another school with Ultimate students? EOS Institute, that place is as prestigious as Hope's Peak Academy is.

Walking through the hallways of the school, Akira Hayasaka looked through her phone, before finding a post about the recent news, making her stop in her tracks. "Hm? What's wrong, Akira?" A friend of hers, Tomoya Morita, asked from beside her.

"Oh, a girl got murdered and her body was just discovered today." The internet sensation answered. Hearing that, the therapist only felt absolute shock. "What?! Really?!" He asked, and Akira nodded. "Yeah. Just look at this post yourself." She then showed the post on her phone to the boy. "Yikes....rest in peace...." Tomoya commented sadly.

"Mhm. The police are trying to find the killer, so at least her death will be brought to justice soon." Akira said. "That's good then. I hope the killer gets what they deserve!" The therapist beside her exclaimed in determination.

'I didn't killed this girl....So...who did it....?' The internet sensation thought as she and Tomoya continue walking through the hallways.

Jayson looked at his phone with a blank expression on his face.

....Jayson was the culprit behind the murder.
