We all disbanded to try and find Justice Robo. I searched the Cafe, Boy's locker room, and the dorm hall.
However. I found a strange note in Kiyotaka's pocket, another note with... horrible handwriting, bits of blood on a flatbed cart in the room, and several hammers that had a similar shape to the Justice hammers. They were even missing a few... what got my attention most was that the wooden material used for the hammers felt wet... like it was washed.. that's all I really found during my investigation, and ... not much else.

Fortunately, the Ultimate Lucky Student didn't need much time to recover and informed us all to head into the Pool. Though everyone did, We were surprised to see that no one was in the suit..

In the end, we all managed to get some possible clues... we were now headed to the court room to share our cases...

Monokuma: Alright, lets get this going! Someone's greedy little fingers really seem hungry for some cash, so lets make this fast!
Aoi: Is it at all possible that Hagakure is responsible? After all, his name was Kiyotaka's last words.. Maybe he is trying to do what Sayaka did?
Naegi: I wouldn't be so sure. After all, Him and Kiyotaka were close! Why would he resort to murder, and then kill himself?
Celestia: Unfortunately, There is evidence to suggest that Hagakure is responsible. Highly suggestive evidence, as a matter of fact. All of which were uncovered within his room.
Chihiro: That's Incorrect..!
Celestia: Oh?
Chihiro: I-I have a note.. a Note that i can assume to be in Hagakure's handwriting..!

I nervously took out the note and showed it to everyone.

Comparing it to the blueprints Celestia shown as evidence, the handwriting didn't match. Not even close..

Celestia: Could Hagakure not have changed his handwriting style to cover his tracks?
Naegi: That can't be all. What about the flatbed? The killer had to have used that to move around the bodies, right?
Chihiro: I agree with that.. The wheels had blood on them. If they weren't used to move the bodies, then why would blood be there?
Naegi: Not to mention how the justice robo costume doesn't bend at the waist! If Hagakure was in the suit, then he could never have moved the cart so smoothly without being noticed!
Byakuya: I see. So Hagakure was stuffed into the costume and couldn't have done this alone.. interesting.
Aoi: Wait, what about the picture of Hagakure being attacked by Justice Robo? He can't really do that if he is also in the suit.
Celestia: A good point.. Then what exactly would be suggested?
Naegi: Someone else has to be a part of this case. Otherwise, the photo wouldn't make any sense. Right?
Byakuya: I'd have to agree. The suit was the kind that would require assistance to put on. Hagakure couldn't do it alone. I'd even bet that some of the blood that he had wasn't his own. Within the med bay, there's a supply of blood. All of which he had access too.
Aoi: So he played dead?
Byakuya: Undoubtedly.

I... I'm so confused.. What did we just establish? That.. Hagakure faked his own death, just to die again..? And that he isn't alone in this case?..

I tried to take a deep breath and calm down... Being stressed and overwhelmed won't help anyone.. I just need to remember the training I did with (YN).. physical, and mental..

Once I regained my composure, I looked down at the note that was in Kiyotaka's hand and presented it to everyone.

Chihiro: T-The note..! It's an invitation to meet someone in the physics r-room.. the handwriting is to legible to be Hagakure's, or even Kiyotaka..!
Byakuya: An invitation to an untimely demise.
Aoi: I think it would help if we ordered the deaths and attacks. If we go by order, it was Celestia, then Hagakure, then Hagakure again, then Kiyotaka. Right?
Naegi: Maybe. Though, the first hammer seemed to small to be useable like that..
Chihiro: Maybe the hammers were washed..? There was a wall of hammers.. four were missing, and the rest seemed washed. Almost like as if the culprit was getting blood off the hammer..
Naegi: That would make sense. What if the person that Hagakure agreed to work with double crossed him? Is it possible that the attacks went by as Celestia, Hagakure, Myself, then end wjth Kiyotaka and Hagakure being killed?
Byakuya: We seem to be dealing with a formidable strategist. They seemed to have thought of any weak point in their plan..
