Amon's POV
The culprit can only be......
“So following these conditions, I think I know who our culprit is”, I said, “But I need to ask a few more questions, before we continue this discussion”.
“Alright....So the culprit had to have a chance to go to the library  the night before to meet up with Sergey and then again had to come out early this morning without looking suspicious”, I thought.
“Abel, I need your input on this, will you help me?”, I asked begrudgingly.
“Sure, what would you want to know?”, Abel answered.
“.........Did you...go out of the dorms earlier than our prescribed time today?”, I asked.
“Ummm...Yes? Like I always do remember?”, Abel said, “I always get up early to start preparing breakfast early for everyone”.
“And you were alone for a bit of time yesterday night....right?”, I asked.
“..................”, Abel stared back blankly but bewildered, “...........Yes......but like I said only for a few minutes”.
“Wait, what’s happening here guys?”, Frank asked, “Why is Amon questioning Abel like that?”.
“Isn’t it obvious?”, Harper answered".
“Abel is the most suspicious character at  the moment”, I answered with contempt.
“Wh.....What??!!!”, Hector shouted.
Bewildered looks all around the class trial podiums as they were all shocked by the sudden deceleration.
“Wait, what do you mean Abel is the most suspicious?”, Fahima said, “He’s been helping us throughout this whole class trial....I don’t believe for a second he would do this".
“I also agree with Fahima, It doesn’t make sense that he gave out so much evidence for this trial”, Hector said, “Besides wouldn’t that just put him at a big disadvantage?”.
“I don’t know guys, I mean if you look at it with Abel in the picture....some things start to make sense”, Alex said.
“But him coming out in the morning doesn’t mean he’s guilty, does it?”, Zelda questioned.
“But we can’t ignore the fact that he could have had time to prepare everything both the night before and commit the murder the following morning”, Harper said.
“I don’t know what’s going on but Abel seems awfully suspicious now", Frank said.
“So did you at some point you know", Hector barked back.
“I say we vote for him right now, I don’t see anyone else fitting the scenario", Harper said.
“No wait, it’s too soon to vote yet", I said.
“Seems like half the people here think Abel did it.....is it really possible?....could Abel have done it?...No...I refuse to believe that....he’s not the kind of person.....I’ll have to try and prove his innocence somehow...but this evidence.....it matches up with his actions somehow....it seems very odd”, I though.
“Guys, I think we’re being too hasty about this", I said, “Just because it seems like he had a chance to do it, doesn’t mean he’s the culprit”.
“I agree", Zelda said, “We should discuss it some more before pointing finger, yes it does seem suspicious but remember who you’re talking about here”.
“But he had the chance by coming out early in the morning before the announcement, didn’t he?”, Robert asked.
“And let’s not forget he could’ve met with Sergey somehow, seeing as I saw him close to the stairs yesterday night", Moses said.
“Guys, we can’t keep going back and forth and we can’t be too rash and vote for him as the culprit, without evidence”, I declared.
“What are we gonna do? We’re split down the middle", Fahima said.
“Did you say split?!!”, MonoKuma exclaimed, “Yep, I heard it with the microphone hidden in my ears, Hope’s Peak Academy is proud to present to you it’s very first morphenomenal trial grounds!!!”.
“We have to do that thing again??”, Alex said annoyed
“I’ve actually been waiting for this part to happen", Hector said.
“Looks like it’s time for another scrum debate, maybe with this I can calm the rest of them down enough to halt their decision, alright then let’s go!!”, I thought.
We watched as Monokuma inserted the key into the stand in front of him to activate the floating mechanism for the podiums and one by one we all started rising as I heard the familiar beeps that came with it.
SCRUM DEBATE- Is Abel the Culprit or Not?
Yes he did- Alex, Harper, Robert, Moses, Frank.
No he didn’t- Amon, Abel, Zelda, Fahima, Hector.
                   (Scrum Debate BEGIN)
Alex: “There’s no one else it could’ve been, I can’t think of anyone that would’ve had the chance the kill Sergey”.
Amon: “It’s not really that hard if you look hard enough, anyone could’ve done it but we need to discuss this first".
Harper: “I saw we vote for him now, there’s no evidence that claims otherwise”.
Zelda: “No, we shouldn’t vote, there’s still a lot of evidence that hasn’t been used yet".
Moses: :”But he could’ve had a chance to meet up with Sergey the night before the murder”.
Hector: But he didn’t have the chance as you already claimed he was away from stairs, wasn’t he?”.
Robert: “Him coming out early in the morning , makes him very suspicious and most likely the culprit."
Abel: “I come out every morning to prepare breakfast for everyone, so what’s your point?”.
Frank: “He had enough time to plan out the murder , seeing as he has an incomplete Alibi”.
Fahima: “Don’t forget, you also did not have a complete alibi for yesterday night”.
Crouch bind: THIS IS OUR ANSWER.          
                Scrum Debate End.
