"How did you get in here? And, if I'm not just hallucinating, I saw for a split second that you were holding some kind of keycard..." I furrowed my eyebrows in concern. But, her expression didn't budge. Maybe I'm wrongly accusing her of... having some affiliation with the mastermind..?
No. I can't completely rule out that possibility. This is a game of suspicion, and as much as I don't want to target Tsumugi, we need to be on our feet, even around the smallest of suspicious occurrences.
"H-Huh? It wasn't locked for me, I promise... I just came in here to check out some of the manga that was in here! I've been missing my animes from the outside world so badly..." She rubbed her arm reminiscently, mumbling some names of animes and claiming how much she missed them. "And, a keycard?" She spun around to meet my eyes once again. But her eyes seemed... more hostile than before... a brighter shade of neon blue.
"I really have no idea of what you're talking about... But I'm just as scared as you, okay?" She grabbed my arm with a sweet smile, but everything about her in that moment was so, so off.
"A-Ah, right! I'm sorry if I caused any trouble... I just can't be lenient with people right now... we're all suspicious." I said confidently, to which she solemnly agreed and reassured me that my suspicion was okay.
Later, we were all gathered in the gym by Monokuma, where he brought upon his next motive. The time limit. In 2 days, if no one wound up dead, the time limit would kill us all. I knew I had to be cautious around everyone, especially Tsumugi...
I spent the next day stalking her. I really wished it didn't have to be that way, but more than once did I see her lie about going somewhere, then sneak off into the library. I knew she was very smart, so she probably knew I was doing this... but I didn't care. I was determined to get to the bottom of her suspicious behaviour.It's her keycard, isn't it? She undoubtedly has a special keycard that allows her to get inside of rooms in the academy without special permission. This is... really, really suspicious. If I can somehow get a hand on her keycard, even if I just get one copy, it doesn't matter... I might be able to test it for myself. Does it really open any other room in the academy..? If I can figure that much out, then I can confirm the possibility... that Tsumugi Shirogane is the mastermind of this killing game.
If I want my hands on her keycard, there's only one person who can pickpocket it for me.
"Okay, now..?" Kokichi peeked over the corned of the bathroom, where Tsumugi was strolling down the hall.
"Yep... now!"Kokichi casually strolled next to Tsumugi, hands behind his head.
"Heeeeeeeeey, Tsmoog!" He stepped in front of the taller female, grinning up at her. "The rest of the people here are reeaaaally boring... Wanna hang out or somethin'??"
"A-Ah, but aren't I the most boring person here..? I'm nothing but a Plain Jane..."
"Not trueeee! I see lots of potential in you ruling the world with me!" He gripped onto her skirt, near the pocket where she keeps it.
"Come on!! You'll be a great accomplice for my conquering of this feeble world!" Kokichi demanded greedily.
"Ah, no, I think I'll have to pass, sorry... Anyways, I need to go to the restroom." Tsumugi smiled nervously at the childish boy. I couldn't even tell at the time... jeez, is he the Ultimate Thief or something..?
"Soooooorry, Shuichi, I couldn't grab it in time... But that was just a lie! Retrieved safe and sound by yours truly!!" He declared proudly, returning to me, keycard in hand.
"Goodness... you're really good at things like that, aren't you..?" I smiled at the smaller, who stuck out his tongue in return.
"'Course I am! I'm the Ultimate Supreme Leader--" I bent down, and quickly gave him a kiss on the lips, much to his surprise.
"You need to quieten down, okay..? We can't let the plan get out to the others."
"Good time to ask, uh, what even is your plan..?" Kokichi spoke through his embarrassed state.
I began to leave the hallway to the dorms, and just smiled back at him sadly,
"Nothing, just detective work."
