My first guess was to check the warehouse. Since we're getting supplies for overnight, I figured searching there would be the best option.

Upon opening the door, I first noticed a trash can directly by it. A very flashy chocolate bar wrapper was inside.

Chocolate wrapper...

That's the thing that proved Okashi to be guilty.

This is the very rook where he was revealed to be a suspect.

Okashi...

My memories of the first trial were interrupted by two voices all the way from the back of the room, chatting behind a large shelf.

"And that's how I managed to scam that popular bitch out of her money and still got a tip."

"That's...a very nice story, Shiro."

"You bet it is. Take notes, Pinkie."

"I don't think I will, actually."

"Whatever, suit yourself. But what can I say? Most of the girls back in my neighborhood drop their panties whenever I walk past. It's a talent of mine."

I peeked between boxes to get a clear view of what was going on. Behind the shelf, I saw Toshiro and Haru having a discussion instead of looking for items we needed.

"Uh...what's going on here?" I asked, stepping out to reveal myself.

"Oh, Kuro. I didn't see you there." Haru turned away from Shiro to look at me.

"Well, well, well. Look at little miss bimbo here eavesdropping. What do you want?" the other spoke.

"I was just looking for supplies for tonight. What are you two doing?" I asked. "...And calling me a bimbo again was unnecessary..."

"Oh, right! I completely forgot about that." Haru perked up and started getting ready to leave the room.

"Huh? Where the hell are you going?" Shiro questioned.

"I need to make sure my plants are alright before the extreme temperatures begin."

"And you're seriously gonna leave me alone with this loser?"

Does he have to call me that? I'm standing right in front of him...

"Shiro, you know I care about those plants. I am not letting them die. You could always help me if you want..." they suggested.

"I'll pass. I got my own supplies to deal with."

"Ok then. If you want to continue talking, we can tonight while we're getting ready." Haru said.

"Sure." he agreed. "I can have a full conversation with you without losing my mind unlike with everyone else here. So let's do that then."

"Great. I'll see you later." they smiled before beginning to leave. As they passed by me, I heard them say: "It was nice seeing you, Kuro."

"You too, Haru."

Toshiro...was pretty nice there. Nowadays, that's rare. He seems to get along with Haru much better than he gets along with the rest of us.

Maybe he isn't the selfish, mean, and perverted guy we all think he is.

"Wow, you and Haru have-"

"Shut the fuck up and get what you want to get, slut. Then leave."

I tried to talk to him, but he interrupted me as he walked by to a different shelf across the room.

Ok, he's still the selfish, mean, and perverted guy we all think he is.
