"Alright, so we have a good idea as to why the knife was there. But I'm still wondering how a spinning top could kill someone. Even if it was made of metal, that thing was small. you can't exactly swing that thing around hoping for a sudden death." Ulric said. Suddenly, Monokuma growled.

"Dammit! I'm getting really sick of you guys calling that thing a spinning top! Look, if you must know, that weapon is called a bey!" he stated. We all looked at him surprised.

"A bey?" I said. 

"Yes, it was from one of the universes. I plucked that thing from there and brought it here, but I never thought it would actually be used. But anyway, in that universe, beys would be used in fights, and would cause some crazy damage. We're talking scraping up the walls and floors and huge explosions!" Monokuma explained.

"Why are you telling us this right now? I didn't take you to be the helpful type." Kanato said.

"Well, I gotta make it fair for everyone, or the pieces will never be put together properly. And it wouldn't be fair if only one of you fools knew what a bey was and its universe." Monokuma said. 

I perked up, my eyes widening.

"Wait, say that again? If only one of us knew?! Then, that would mean.....there's a high chance that the person who knew what a bey was is also our culprit. Otherwise, they wouldn't even know what a bey was, much less use it to murder someone." I said. "It's likely the culprit actually came from that same universe, since they appeared to know what a bey was capable of." Near said.

"That makes sense as to why the markings on the walls and floor were covered up. The culprit wanted to hide what the murder weapon was, because they knew that if anyone linked the bey with the universe they came from, they would be first up on the suspect list." Magane said. 

"Nyow, if that's the case, then which one of us came from a world like that? I didn't read anything like that in the profiles on our tablets." Johannes said. Zack growled, slamming his fist down.

"Kusoga! Whoever the culprit is, just confess already! We can't stand here and keep twiddling our thumbs! So whoever killed the kid, admit it! I'm sick of the lies and the cover ups!" Zack stated. 

"Bwahahahaha! Yeah, cause that'll work! If it was that easy, you guys probably wouldn't even be having a trial right now. Only way out is to figure this thing out to the very end." Monokuma stated.

"Unfortunately, he's correct. Let's discuss the case further, and perhaps we shall find more clues." Near said. Zack huffed, placing his hands on his hips and sighing, but nodded. 

"Right, in that case, who has another theory? Anyone? Anyone?" Magane said, looking around the court room. 

"So, we have an idea on how Nagito died, and what weapon killed him. We also have an idea of who the culprit might be, but nobody specifically as of yet. What else is there to look into?" I said. "Perhaps we should see how Nagito got to that storage closet in the first place. What prompted him to go there so late at night." Near said.

"Actually, we found a note in Nagito's hand. It said to meet him in that closet at nine. He probably went there to see him." Mello said. That made Crona's eyes widen.

"What? Wait....Nagito got a note?" he said. All eyes were on Crona. Kokichi raised a brow, a small smirk playing on his lips. "Hmm? Do you know something, Crona? Don't keep us waiting~" he said. Crona looked down nervously, rubbing his arm.

"Um...w-well, I..."

"Come on! Spit it out already! We don't have all day!" Kokichi whined. Crona flinched and nodded. "R-Right. W-Well, you see, I did see Nagito last night." he said. Rin perked up.
