Danganronpa: Despair to Prodiges V2

Class Trial #1

(Kazuma POV)

We all had assigned spots in a circle, and we all went to our spots minus the dead Yue who just had a photo with a giant X

Monokuma sat on a chair overseeing everyone.

"Well, feel free to start now!" He said cheerfully as everyone looked around to see who would start it off.

After a moment of silence, the first to speak was Nami, "Well, let's go over what we know so far. Yue was killed and heavily beaten when the lights went off. The timer had what appeared to be grease or sweat, and there was a bloody napkin as well."

"Dazai had also noticed there was some dirt on the ground in the generator room as well. Plus the dust on the window is considerably less than the others," I said

Nami then nodded, "So, shall we go over who we can clear? I can clear that idiot since I was trying my absolute hardest to stop him from eating all the food."

"Yea! I agree but I don't want her to do it again!"

"Idiot! That's why you're not going to be under investigation!"

"I couldn't eat what I wanted because of it though!"

"Ok, that's enough," Yuuki said as he clapped his hands, "Kazuma and I are full cleared so there is no room for any doubt against either of us."

"Anyone else?" Kirito asked

Silence. Not good.

"So, pretty much everyone else is a suspect," Echidna said while looking at everyone, then turned her gaze fully on Gojo, "But, I must say the generator room is hard to find. For you to be able to find it in only around two minutes while it was pitch black is quite a feat."

"Sorry, but I got super sensitive eyes," Gojo said referring to his blindfold, "I wear this because I basically have a form of super high night vision, having it on during the day helps out. And before anyone asks, when I had left, Yue was indeed alive. I can also vouch for every alibi."

"So, what to make of this so far? The killer must have killed when Gojo wasn't in the room, yet they had also left the room some time to get to the generator room..." I started

"Wait a second, Kazuma," Soma said, "Who said the killer went into the generator when the power was out? The dirt on the ground and dust could have been done before the murder, right? It didn't mean they snuck out when no one was looking."

'...I guess so.'

I nodded. To be honest, I'm surprised I was thinking that, given how obvious it was. I figured though I only took that for granted because of the given situation.

"...So, this means that the killer went through the window while Kazuma and the others were cleaning, so, couldn't Tohru and Aqua also be cleared?" Hanako asked

"As much as I could vouch for Aqua being too dumb to do this, we all split up more than a number of times to get things. I cannot say it's impossible for them to be the killer, however, I think we can clear Aqua for another reason. She was screaming the whole entire time while running around when the lights were out. Gojo, can you confirm?"

"She was running around like a headless chicken," Gojo confirmed

"But, that doesn't mean anything changed during the blackout, right?" Hanako asked

"The voice was moving all over the place, I'm sure she is innocent," Kirito said 

"So then," Fuuka interjected, "The killers the maid right? She was the only one who knew where the timer was before the party. The sweat marks are because she wears gloves so she took them off to try and frame the outside party...Yet again though, I don't understand her reasoning for the dirt. That goes a little far beyond just framing."
