I have read from a random book as me, Val and Kou were waiting for the annual "Whodunit" event to begin. It was an event where fake murders are committed and the guests have to try and solve them. The money that the guests pay go to a special charity too!
What's also really fun about this event is that you can dress as anything you want! So I came dressed as Indiana Jones, Val came dressed as Claude Faustus and Kou came dressed as Kou Mukami...how ironic.
Everyone else in the crowded dining room were all dressed fancy, in their tuxedos and silky drapes. Doesn't any of these people know the definition of fun?
Val looks around the room before whispering in my ear.

"Where's Juno?"
( ・◇・)?

"He said he's going to be late...he had something to do for school"
┐( ̄ー ̄)┌

Kou sighs deeply as he rapidly taps his finger on the wooden table, resting his face on the palm of his hand.

"When is this thing going to start? I want to win that prize!"
(>_<)

"Uhhh Kou, there is no prize, there are no winners or losers in this event"
(¬_¬)

"What?! Oh what the hell, why did I even come here then if there's no prize?!"
(>_<)

"What were you expecting Kou, a Cracker Jack prize?"

I sarcastically replied as I then heard the host making an announcement in the middle of the dining room. It appeared that the murder mystery was about to begin. I smiled as I then turn to the others.

"Alright guys, good luck and remember, be on the lookout for actors pretending to be guests and actual guests. It can definitely help when solving the mystery~"
(*^^*)

"Okay!"
(*^▽^*)

"I'm going to show you two that I have more skill in solving cases than in bed~"

Kou winked as me and Val ignored him, waiting for the first murder to be committed...

"And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. The Who, How, and Why!"

The fake detective declared as everyone in the dining room applauds for the young man who solved the case without hesitation.
Kou growls as he grips the table cloth in anger.

"I can't believe that man solved it first...I was so close to figuring it out!"
(>_<)

"Kou, you weren't even CLOSE to solving the case, you kept saying that the butler did it..."
(¬д¬。)

"Hey! In every murder mystery movie I have watched, it was always the butler!"
o(>< )o

Kou protested as Val kept staring at the young man who solved the case. I then turn to her, puzzled, then I smirked as I got the idea of what's going on.
I place a hand on her shoulder, smiling.

"Val~ Is that man catching your eye?~"

"M-Mackenzie, do you know who that is?!"
