Jiro stared around the trial room. He could see all eyes were on him once more. He gulped.

"W-where do we start....?" He mumbled the question mostly to himself.

"I have a good place to start. Let's talk about Windrider-san's death. It should at least lead us somewhere." Gin said, crossing his arms

Jiro briefly recalled what Monokuma said about Nao's murder being irrelevant. But he quickly shook that thought away.

'Don't just dismiss it, Jiro. They could have the same killer.'

"A-alright. Maybe it would be best to state our alibis first. The Monokuma Files said that Windrider-san's death took place around...2:30 -2:40 pm." He began.

"I'll go first. Me and Jiro we're talking in the third floor lounge. I think for like an hour or two." Mizuki said.

Jiro nodded in confirmation that this was true.

"Me and Chiyo were in the lounge on the first floor at this time, having been there for a hour prior as well." Itsuki explained.

"He speaks the truth." Chiyo said.

"I left Leiko-sama to rest in my room, while I went to the dining room." Gin said firmly.

"I have no clue about where I was at this time! Could've been anywhere!" Haise announced.

"Welp. That's not helpful." Mizuki mumbled.

"Hmm...I think I was in the infirmary. I may or may not having been playing around with the computer." Guren said, looping her hair around her finger.

"I was in the flower garden." Ryo said, smiling as brightly as ever.

"I was wandering around for awhile..." Haku said.

Jiro nodded.

"Now, if you'll let me, I'd like to shift over to Yokoyama-san's death." He said.

"Why?" Gin asked.

Jiro winched. "B-because I think these two might tie together." He gulped. "N-now let's discuss possible ways of death."

"Looks to me like he took the fall." Ryo speculated.

'Yes!'

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"What Shigeru-san said is very possible. I think Yokoyama-san fell from somewhere, or more specifically, the balcony above him." He explained.

"Oh! That makes sense." Itsuki said.

"Yeah but, it wasn't an accident. Someone probably pushed Yokoyama-san over the railing, letting him fall to his death. His head landed on a rock that was sticking out of the ground, effectively killing him." Jiro said, scratching the side of his nose out of habit.
