Memory:
HINATA: …………
HINATA: [ name redacted ]… Is that who you really are?
PEKO: Who I really am…?
PEKO: Heh. I have long ago forgotten who I am…
PEKO: Such is my resolve! If one is to protect a single thing of utmost importance, one must be ready to discard everything else!
PEKO: If I can make justice sparkle over this world, I shall become anything at all! (*`Д´*)ノ”彡☆
PEKO: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ヾ(@×▽×@)ノ
NIDAI: Ku… That’s more than I can take! Let’s end this charade right now!
HINATA: L…Let’s look back on today’s events… and end this trial!
HINATA: Today’s events started this morning, when Koizumi came to visit Saionji.
HINATA: Koizumi must have played Twilight Syndrome Murder Mystery, our supposed “motive”…
HINATA: …and wanted to discuss what she’d seen with the other cast members from the game.
HINATA: Saionji agreed to talk to her, and they decided to meet later in the day.
HINATA: But… there was someone eavesdropping. Our culprit.
HINATA: Having heard their conversation, they schemed to use the girls’ plans as a cover to commit murder.
HINATA: First, by making certain preparations, they manipulated the girls’ actions.
HINATA: They wrote two fake letters, and sent one each to Koizumi and Saionji.
HINATA: The letter sent to Koizumi told her to come to the beach house at 2:30 PM…
HINATA: But the one sent to Saionji said to come to the house at exactly two o’clock.
HINATA: And so, the culprit separated the two by inviting them to the beach house at different times.
HINATA: Saionji, who was completely deceived by the letter, arrived at the beach house at 2 o’clock as instructed.
HINATA: Once there, she was drugged by the culprit, who had been laying in wait.
HINATA: After drugging her, the culprit quickly hid Saionji inside the closet…
HINATA: They were planning to make it look like she was the culprit.
HINATA: Then, at 2:30, Koizumi arrived at the beach house.
HINATA: She had no idea she was the target of a murder plot.
HINATA: She was vulnerable, and the culprit closed in on her from behind, wielding a certain weapon…
HINATA: …the metal bat that was left at the crime scene.
HINATA: The bat hit Koizumi on the head, and she collapsed…
HINATA: Tsumiki’s examination would later tell us she died an instant death. She probably never even saw who it was that killed her.
HINATA: Then, after completing their goal of killing Koizumi, the culprit started preparing the crime scene.
HINATA: First, they moved Koizumi’s dead body and left her blocking the tunnel-side door…
HINATA: Then, they also purposefully left behind the mask we found in the room.
HINATA: I’m not sure why they did that… it was probably something like a calling card.
HINATA: That was the reason we found the crime scene in the state it was.
HINATA: But… having just moved a dead body, the culprit’s own body was now dirty with blood.
HINATA: The shower room was under repairs and had no running water, so they couldn’t wash their body that way.
HINATA: But they were prepared for that.
HINATA: So instead they used an alternate water source…
HINATA: …Bottled water from the beach house fridge.
HINATA: They probably had them all stashed in the shower room ahead of time for exactly that purpose.
HINATA: The culprit used the bottled water instead of the shower to wash the blood off themselves.
HINATA: However, they had no choice but to throw the empty bottles in the beach house trashcan.
HINATA: Disposing of them outside was against the rules, and there was no time to take them somewhere else.
HINATA: Afterwards, the newly clean culprit hid themselves in the closet where Saionji was sleeping.
HINATA: They hid inside an empty surfboard case they prepared ahead of time.
HINATA: After a short time passed, the effect of Saionji’s drug grew weak and she woke up.
HINATA: When she walked out of the closet, she must have been quite shocked.
HINATA: Koizumi, who she was supposed to meet, lay dead in front of her eyes…
HINATA: Saionji acted hastily, both because of the shock and because she must have been afraid of being accused.
HINATA: She ran out of the beach house in a panic.
HINATA: When she did, she left behind footprints in the sand. It was all part of the culprit’s plan to set her up.
HINATA: After Saionji was gone, the culprit got up from their surfboard case…
HINATA: In order to further incriminate Saionji, they placed a piece of gummy on the floor, where they knew it would be found…
HINATA: Of course, they hadn’t taken Saionji’s very particular tastes into account.
HINATA: Then, finally, the culprit prepared to exit the beach house.
HINATA: Exiting through the front door would leave footprints, so that wasn’t an option. Instead…
HINATA: The culprit left through the small window in the shower room.
HINATA: However, the window was too far off the ground to easily reach without help, so the culprit was forced to use some unusual means…
HINATA: That being… a certain bamboo sword they were never without.
HINATA: The culprit tied the sword’s carrying bag to the sword’s hilt…
HINATA: Then, while still holding the bag, they used the sword as a springboard to reach the window.
HINATA: Once they were outside, all they had to do was pull on the bag to retrieve the sword.
HINATA: Then, after leaving the beach house, the culprit appeared before the rest of us with a nonchalant look on their face.
HINATA: But, they didn’t have time to dry out their swimsuit and hair. There weren’t any towels in the beach house.
HINATA: So the culprit explained their appearance by telling us they had been out for a swim.
HINATA:How about it? That’s the full truth behind the murder you committed! Isn’t that so, [ name redacted ]?!
( translation from the orenronen lp! )
What was learned:
→ Why am I wearing a mask?
→ And...why are they all looking at me with such suspicion?
→ Combined with my justice ranting.......no, there is certainly no way such a thing could be true.
→ .......Except I killed someone. I fully agree with that fact.
→ So, then....am I truly the serial killer Kirakira-chan? If I believed that one must be ready to discard everything for one thing of utmost importance...... \(°o°;)
