I pushed Maria aside for now and focused on Toby and Ruby's bodies. Vincent had started examining Ruby's "Hm... We've never found any guns in the area, so perhaps something else but her head... Oh Willow!" He smiled at me, but then his face went serious "Y'know, I've been thinking.. Do you think the killer wanted to kill three people originally?" He asked. It was a question that had been bugging me. Vincent continued "Naturally, killing more than one person creates more evidence, so the easy way of escape would be to just kill one. So... Perhaps Toby and/or Ruby walked in on the murder?" I nodded in agreement. 

I then noticed that Zara was clinging onto Toby's body. "U-Uhm... Zara I need to investigate the body.." I muttered. But Zara didn't let go "I can't... He'll f-fall over..." She murmured. I sighed. I then noticed a knife on the floor.

Another tool box knife...

I then had a thought. I looked at Zara "Hey, Zara, didn't you go and see Toby last night?" Zara seemed surprised by the question, then replied "Yeah... B-But I was worried about the k-killing game... So he stayed and comforted me for a bit... And now he's gone!" She cried into his blood stained hoodie. 

 "Hey Willow!"

 Olivia came up to me and was holding a block of wood. "Where'd you get that?" I asked her. "It was near the crime scene." She stated "But... I need to show you something."

 She lead me over to the door. She told me to look at the bottom of the door. And that's when I noticed...

There was a gap under the door. 

 "And look!" Olivia said. She shoved the wooden block under the door and it fit perfectly. I then decided to try something. I removed the wood and tried sliding under the door. And like that, my theory was confirmed.

The killer had created a locked room mystery.

I was able to get in and out the room by using this door. If this wasn't a killer, then I'd almost admire their smarts. 

 I then saw Amy looking at something on the other side of the storage room. I sent over to see. She was looking behind another box, and behind it was a sword. "What'cha think it means?" She asked. I was unsure. But then, an announcement played

 "Students! Time for the trial! Please head to the Monokuma Room!"
