Hifumi's an accomplice...but why? I can't imagine money would have motivated him...

"He was killed in the repository, so he must have been killed not long after transporting Taka's body," Kyoko said.

"So he must have been killed after Taka's body vanished but before we found both bodies in the repository..." Sakura theorized.

"During that time, we'd all split up and were searching for Taka's missing body. In other words, during that time...none of us have alibis," Byakuya added(unhelpfully).

"Wait, but me and Sakura were together!" Hina protested.

"Stop trying to steal the spotlight, ya stupid walrus!" Jill yelled, pointing her scissors in Hina's direction.

"Put the scissors down, Jill. I'm rather found of my eyes," I commented, not really caring if she complied or not. Strangely enough, the scissors were put away until the next time the serial killer decides to pull them out for dramatic effect.

Hiro brought up the topic of the weapon that was used to kill Hifumi. The wound was similar to Taka's, but the Justice Hammers of the correct size were both elsewhere when Hifumi was killed.

"...I'm surprised. It seems there's some semblance of a brain knocking around in that skull of yours, after all," Byakuya insulted Hiro. Since Hiro's capable of movement, speech and memory retention he has to have a brain. It just doesn't seem to function as well as you'd hope.

"He's right, though. I don't understand it, either...The Monokuma File makes it clear that they were killed using similar instruments...But if the hammers were already laying around those rooms..." Sakura trailed off.

"So the question is, how could the culprit have gotten there hands on either of the hammers? Personally, I haven't a clue."

Hina asked about hammers 1 and 2, which were two small to kill anyone.

"...Is it not possible they used a different weapon?" Byakuya proposed.

"I don't think it *is* possible! They were both killed with the same kinda thing, right?" Hiro argued.

"So what was used to kill Hifumi?" Sakura asked. "Was it Justice Hammer 3? Maybe Justice Hammer 4?"

"Well, whatever it was...there's one thing we have to figure out. How was the culprit able to move so freely with the weapon? How did nobody witness them carrying it?" Celeste inquired.

"Sounds like a Justice Hammer 5 is about to make its appearance! Check out murdergear.com/hammertime for more info!" Jill joked, laughing. Nah, don't get your weapons from shady websites like that. Gotta make sure it's untraceable, otherwise you'll end up behind bars.

Hiro spoke next, "Well, one thing seems pretty clear...the murder weapon had to be one of the Justice Hammers!"

"Are you sure about that, Hiro? The stupid hammers aren't the only hammers in existence. If you were going to use a hammer to kill someone-which, by the way, is a bad idea for several reasons, including the fact that bashing someone's skull open with a blunt object runs the risk of getting blood all over your clothes-most people wouldn't use one of those abominations. There were hammers in the repository, ranging in size. One of the hammers was clean, and slightly damp. The culprit most likely used that." Some people looked slightly perturbed by uncaring comment about blood. Bloodstains on clothes take *forever* to wash out and my clothes are expensive. What's wrong with complaining about it?

"I'd also like to point out that the repository has all kinds of hammers-big ones, small ones...and even some flat mallet-like ones. I think whoever made the Justice Hammers used those as a basis for their designs," Makoto added.
