Chloe: Let's get this over with.

Tan Liang: So it's happening again... Deja vu huh...

Hanako: Don't worry, we can do this.

Ashton walked in.

Ashton: Sorry I'm late guys, let's go.

The stage fell into two and the elevator rose up from the middle and its doors opened up. It was nothing new, but with every trial comes some surprise we've never encountered. We all know by now, today's trial will be nothing like the last two. But I convinced myself that we would find the killer, there's two victims this time, there's twice the amount of evidence, we'll be able to guess it.

We'll come out one person less than before.

We stepped into the elevator and the doors closed slowly once more. We were all silent throughout the ride down, and I felt a few eyes stare suspiciously at me, scanning my facial expressions for clues. The glares cut into me like swords and I began wondering if I really didn't murder those two who I claimed to be my friends. What's wrong with me? Am I going crazy?

The elevator stopped and the doors slid open, my mind was all over the place. Am I really ready for this trial? Probably not, but I'm going to try anyway. I stepped out of the elevator into the familiar trial room.

Miyoshi, the ultimate mathematician, the one who helped us with so many things, who took care of us, because she was our friend. The one who wanted to go to that school for ultimates so badly, only to be killed in this ruthless game. Alyssa, The ultimate pharmacist, the one so carefree. She said she'd die eventually, and I guess she was right. For the sake of our friends who were killed together, we'll solve this case, just like how we did the two times before, and we'll either do that or die trying.

We walked up to our stands, they looked the same as before.

Monokuma: Now then, let's begin with a simple explanation of the Class Trial! During the Class Trial, you will present your arguments for who the killer is, and vote for whodunnit! If you vote correctly, only the Blackened will receive punishment! But if you pick the wrong person... I'll punish everyone besides the Blackened, and that person will earn the right to leave this mall!

Monokuma: Oh but before that, I have some free evidence for you guys!

Monokuma pulled down the television in the trial room.

Monokuma: I'll be showing you the entire CCTV camera footage for the third floor, puhuhuhuhu! Isn't that exciting?

Tan Liang: That would actually be very helpful!

Monokuma: This footage is only of the area outside the ice rink locker room from 7pm to 10pm.

Chloe: The murder took place at 2am.

Monokuma: And I know that! Just shut up and watch!

On the television, there was a clock at the side of the screen, it read 7pm. The footage showed the door to the ice rink locker room, and there seemed to be someone walking towards it. It was... Miyoshi? She entered the locker room and nothing happened until about 8pm, when not just Miyoshi, but Sophie left the room together.

Around 8.10pm, another figure who looked like Hanako entered the locker room and left at 8.30pm, carrying a container.

Once again everything was still, until around 9.50, when a hooded figure entered the locker room, followed by Miyoshi at 10pm, who seemed to be holding something unidentifiable behind her back. The footage cut there.

Monokuma: That's all the extra clues you're getting today! You guys may now begin debating puhuhuhuhu! Bad luck!

Ashton: So where do we start?

Sophie: Before that, I have a question to ask Monokuma.

Monokuma: Hm??

Sophie: What if they were killed by different people? Who would be the one executed?

Monokuma: The person who died first! First come first serve!

Randi: So that means we only need to find out who killed one of them?

Chloe: I guess that makes it easier...

Yu Xuan: But weren't both killed around 2am? Doesn't that mean they were killed together?

Ashton: Maybe... We have a lot of possibilities.

Hanako: What if Alyssa killed Miyoshi or the other way around and the murderer killed themselves?

Ashton: I don't think that could work if Miyoshi killed Alyssa, she's on the ceiling after all and she couldn't have put herself up there. If it was Alyssa that killed Miyoshi, it could be possible that she stabbed herself, but...

Randi: Maybe they were killed by the same person and it really doesn't matter!

Chloe: Let's not over complicate things too much and go back to what we already know. How about we talk about the murder weapons?

Sophie: I don't think we should change the topic, that's pretty suspicious of you.

Ashton: No, we shouldn't be overthinking this. Let's talk about the murder weapons.

Sophie: Tsk.

Randi: You know what I think? It's either Hanako, Sophie or Tan Liang!

Hanako: Oh look, I'm being framed for murder again. This isn't funny anymore guys!

Tan Liang: Why me??? Just because I didn't like Alyssa doesn't mean I'd go as low as to kill her!

Sophie: I can't say I'm all innocent.

Ashlyn: No, we shouldn't be pushing the blame onto people again when we haven't even talked about anything. Back to the murder weapons.

Rachel: We know Miyoshi was killed by a slit to the throat and Alyssa was stabbed. What do you think could've caused these injuries?

Tan Liang: Miyoshi had a phone in her throat, but I don't think anyone could have sliced it open with that.

Hanako: No shit Sherlock.

Ashlyn: And Alyssa was stabbed by a cleaver, wasn't she?

Non-stop debate!

Truth bullets:

Bloody cleaver

Square hole in ice

Used arsenic

Shape of the wound

Wet shirt

Chloe: Something seems very off...

Ashlyn: There was a bloody cleaver next to her body, but was bloody.

Ashton: Well, we didn't get to see Alyssa's body.

Hanako: But if the cleaver is bloody and it's near to her, it should be the weapon.

Tan Liang: So Alyssa's killer just next to her body?

Rachel: Seems like it.

Yu Xuan: But if only the edge was bloody, doesn't that mean that the killer ? - - - Shape of the wound - - -

Ashlyn: No that's wrong! - - - COUNTER - - -

Ashlyn: The killer couldn't have sliced her open, because the wound is circular! They had to have stabbed her with something round, like a pipe!

Chloe: So the murder weapon wasn't the cleaver? Then why is it bloody?

Ashlyn: Well, we know Alyssa wasn't sliced open, but Miyoshi was.

Randi: So the cleaver was used to kill Miyoshi???

Ashton: And then the killer put it beside Alyssa's body to make it look like it was used to kill her instead...

Tan Liang: But why would they need to do that?

Chloe: Maybe to find that out, we need to know what Alyssa's real murder weapon was.

Yu Xuan: We know that the wound was circular, but we couldn't really find anything that shape and sharp at the same time. All the knives in the Vietnamese restaurant are flat.

Rachel: So if there was nothing for the killer to use, then maybe the had to make something to use.

Hanako: Make something? With what?

Ashton: Hanako, did your group find anything moldable in the daycare? Like maybe clay to mold into a sharp round skewer?

Hanako: We didn't think it was important, but we found some red air dry clay.

Yu Xuan: Even if they molded it into a sharp shape, I've handled air dry clay before and I know that it's soft and it couldn't be used to stab someone that deep into the abdomen, no matter how sharp the tip is molded into.

Ashlyn: So if the killer didn't use air dry clay, what else could they have used to form a sharp round skewer hard and sturdy enough to stab through someone's whole abdomen?
