☆ WEEK ONE ( TRIAL - DAY ONE )

[raisingproject]

Trial Day #1

Saturday, Week 1

Victim

Suspects

Rise and shine, sleepyheads. At exactly 8 AM, characters will be automatically teleported into the world similar to their Magical Phones which lies underneath the hotel, where they'll find food being served for them of all varieties, primarily Japanese. For those who wish to make a request for a change of menu, they only need speak to Fav.

Once everyone finds themselves settled the mascot will suddenly appear with a flash to make an announcement.

"For the next two days, we will be discussing the death of Dia Kurosawa, also known as Diamondere, pon! You will have a break for dinner and sleep and then the trial will continue tomorrow morning! If you have any questions in regards to this trial, please feel free to let me know, and I'll try to answer it to the best of my abilities, pon! Of course, you're not allowed to ask me who the culprit is, because that would be unfair. So make sure to find the culprit and execute them properly, pon! You wouldn't want to kill an innocent person, would you?"

And now, on their magical phones, characters will finally be able to find the autopsy report as the discussion begins. At 8 PM, everyone will be dismissed to have dinner and go back to their rooms.

AUTOPSY REPORT & BODY INVESTIGATION

[raisingproject]

Autopsy Report - Dia Kurosawa

Cause of Death: Being hit in the head by a blunt object.
Body Discovery: Approximately at 9:30 AM
Time of Death: Estimated at around 5 - 7 PM Thursday
Condition of Body: Injuries found on head and torso. Broken ribs.
Condition of Scene: Found in the bathroom at Room 22 of the southern apartment complexes.

If anybody wishes to investigate the body, Fav's brought it down in pristine condition, along with pictures of the crime scene as it was during the discovery. How convenient.

ALIBIS

[raisingproject]

Whereabouts - Thursday and Friday

On the phones of the suspects a new button reading alibis is shown, along with an option to give your alibi, whether it's verbal or by text.

Edna

[breakingthrough]

[Edna gives her alibi verbally to the phone.]

What I was doing? Let's see... I spent most of Thursday night working on putting those dumb skeletons together and looking for things I could use for the garden I started near the inn. I had to work hard this week to make up for that "little" bit of big spending they made me do to get my arte back. As for Friday morning... I went straight to my garden as usual to water it when I heard about what happened.

The rest you all should know, since I was investigating with the rest of you.

That's all there is to it. Ask me anything you like-- I don't have anything to hide.

[zackthekiller]

You wanna know where I was Thursday? Earlier that afternoon, I was watching Edna putting together some of those shitty skeletons for that one task. You know the one. And then I get this network post from Eliza where she's messing around with that voice changer bowtie she got from the gacha thing. So, I ask her if I can come over to her room and play with it, and she said yes, so I pretty much spent all night at the hotel, playing with a voice changing bowtie.

Also, I slept in on Friday, then went to the gachapon store. Ended up with candy and this stupid flower in a jar. Went right back to my hotel room afterwards, and pretty much stayed there until Recette started screaming into the phone.

So, yeah. Nowhere near the third floor of the southern apartment buildings!

[beyondmoe]

Well, some of you may not know this, but I moved into the southern apartments on Wednesday. On Thursday I spent most of the day at home except for meals... though I believe I spoke with Miss Mihie and assisted Miss Kiryu with her cell phone task. Those were both at the apartments... but after I parted ways with them, I went and got dinner at the store. My apartment isn't one with a kitchen, so - the next day I woke up early for breakfast and met Miss Eruna at the same place. I was still in the vicinity when the body was discovered, deciding which soda to try.

Re: ALIBIS

[shining_finger]

[This is, of course, in text form:]

Thursday morning I got coffee at the corner store and then went back to my room. I saw Zange's message about taking items that other people didn't want, so I went down and gave her my weird doll. After that I did go to the apartment buildings to do the phone task, and I ran into, uh, Beyond Birthday (what kind of name is that?) in the stairwell, but that would have been about 2 or 3 pm, and I was definitely back at the inn by 5, because I know I went to the corner store to find something for dinner around 5:30. I didn't pick up enough instant noodles earlier in the week. I was in my room the rest of the night.

Friday morning I woke up a bit after 9 and went to the corner store for coffee again and then back to my room. I didn't go to the apartments right away when I heard about the murder because I'm not a detective or anything and I thought I'd just get in the way. Eventually, though, I thought I might as well go and look around outside the apartments a bit--I don't know, for footprints or something the murderer dropped or something. It seemed... easier than going to the scene of the crime. I ran into Nanami, Tamamo, and Eliza there--it seemed like they all got there around the same time I did. We didn't find anything, and Tamamo was pretty insistent that we should go look at the crime scene, so I went. All the clues had been found by that point, though.

Eruna

[ladiesfirst]

... Okay now that I think about it this is gonna sound really dumb, but after doing the Rap Battle task on Wednesday, I spent a lot of time yesterday writing new rhymes to use on Fav.

[... No, she's not kidding.]

TALK TO FAV

[raisingproject]

[ Is there anything you would like to bring up with Fav to clarify? Or perhaps you'd like to yell at him or possibly try and contact his master? Here's where you do it. ]

[mikooon]

Wait!

[CHOTTO A MINUTE]

The suspect list is fixed? As in, it's 100% sure it's someone from those list of 5?

Also-- 'kill' an innocent person? So, whoever we choose as the culprit is...

[Yeah. You know.]

[selfloving]

[Someone else who wasn't expecting the list of suspects...or the world around them. Her emotions don't seem reasonable, somewhere between confused and angry and suspicious and...something else.]

Fav. How are the suspects chosen, and why?

[breakingthrough]

It would have been nice to know you were going to use me as a suspect.

[Yet it's said in a very dry, almost bored fashion. Well it's not like anything can be done bout it anyway, so here they are.]

[mikooon]

I suppose, other than two people, I wouldn't expect anyone to murder... and one of them, other than you, is someone I haven't talked to much.

[So much for their Social Link Rank 1, Zack, she still thinks you can totally do murder. However, she also recognizes that Zack probably doesn't think badly of Dia, and-- let's be real here, if he was gonna kill anyone, it was gonna be Tamamo. Herself.

Though, that's all circumstantial. So she doesn't say it out loud.]

If we are to trust this list, then... I suppose it's time to start narrowing down. I see Fav has had the grace to make an alibi.

[ladiesfirst]

... What the heck, why am I a suspect?

[Fav is this revenge for the amount of times she has tried to beat you up...

Ooc: also I am stuck in phone tag hell atm so my response will be slow just fyi]

im just gonna handwave Tamamo made Eruna steak and she ate it all and food coma'd

[mikooon]

[Eruna is a good girl! Well, from what Tamamo's seen, anyway. And, knowing Tamamo, she trusts her gut and feelings more than actual evidence!]

What a terrible suspect list! Surely, at least they could choose the more suspicious ones to make things more challenging. [...] In any case, all the better for us. I can practically cut it in half already.

[Translation: She's on your side, Eruna.]

[breakingthrough]

[More than seeing her own face up there, she's not happy that Eruna's is up there.]

I guess they had to pick someone... Still, the easier it is to narrow down, the better, I suppose.

[buylowsellhigh]

Yeah, you're not even kinda suspicious!

[Eruna killing someone is not gonna ever be a thing as far as Recette is concerned.]

[shining_finger]

[After giving her alibi, Moeka can be found sitting on the floor, head down, hugging her knees. She is Not Dealing Well.]

[mikooon]

[Yeowch. Well, Tamamo thinks she's pretty weird, but at the same time... Tamamo thinks she's far too awkward and timid to probably actually commit murder. Though, that's what she thinks of a lot of people. But a person who shrinks when she's so much as told to sing probably doesn't really fit with a person who would murder a girl in cold blood.

(She's wrong, but well.)

She pops over a text, if she can:]

Don't worry! Tamamo-Divinity-Power will bring out the culprit! ♥♥♥

[crossingout]

So, I suppose the culprit in this case had a bone to pick with Dia-chan, huh.

[ Zange sure is starting off strong today. ] Besides the whole suspect list and alibis, does anybody want to show us what they found? I kind of missed almost everything besides what I heard over the phones, so I'd like to hear the details...

[breakingthrough]

Well, I still have this part of the broken screwdriver... I don't think anyone ever got the tip out of the door, assuming that was what was in there.

HELLO SUSPECTS-- HAND CHECK

[mikooon]

[Though probably futile, Tamamo is going to do a hand check after what was discussed.]

Hello, hello, yes! I want to see all the suspects' hands. We may have reason to believe that their hands may possibly be injured.

I mean, Zack is bandaged up all the time, but I'm pretty sure his hands are fine, so he's exempt.

[wiuethowhsroe]

I've seen Edna's! Can everyone else show their hands to the court, please?

[THEY'RE A COURT NOW]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ZACK YOU'RE EXEMPTED

[zackthekiller]

I guess really old burn scars I got when I was a kid don't count.

[hawthorned]

I'd like to mention that yesterday, Miss One and I was able to enter Miss Dia's room at the Sakura Inn and it appears that there was no evidence of a struggle. While I wasn't personally present at the meeting on Wednesday, Miss One tells me that the room appeared unchanged from that time. It doesn't appear as though any of Miss Dia's personal possessions were disturbed, but as I don't have knowledge of what items she had with her, I don't know if all of her belongings are accounted for between what was found at the crime scene and what was found in her room.

[selfloving]

I will confirm this. The room looked the same on Wednesday night. The food from the meeting was still there, as was the dent in the door. Everything else was in order, which seems like her personality.

Dahlia thought to take some photographs.

[enthrallingly]

Alright, Alright. So.

[She didn't want to dig into this a whole lot-- this kind of thing is usually too much work for her. But. Sitting back has allowed her to think on the situation and-- let's be honest, she could certainly go for a little more attention on herself then she's gotten thus far.]

The door where the blood and the missing bone were happened to be locked because the culprit jammed something in there. Consider... why would they want to do that?

Most likely they wanted to cement the idea that the bone used could have come from Edna's task work, so they could properly blame her for the crime. Right?

Which leads me to thinking that this wasn't some idiot going off on a rampage. They thought this through. We're probably dealing with a craftier killer then some of us might be giving them credit for.

[telecosmetic]

Ryuzaki and I did say the killer would have some way to lure Dia out...

[buylowsellhigh]

I really, really, really don't want to believe that anyone did it.

[Recette is not happy about the suspect list tbh.]

But um... If anyone has any questions about Copper- uh the dog- or the bone or I guess everything going on until people showed up after my post. I'll do my bestest to answer them.

[partyleader]

I... don't want to cast blame or make it seem like I'm calling anyone out as the suspect, but... [Nanami crosses her arms over her chest.] I want to make sure we go over everything before tomorrow comes. And here's something that's been bothering me about Kurosawa-san's phone. More specifically, the typo of the message that was written on it.

I don't know if it means anything, but... If you looked at that in a mirror, wouldn't "d" be a "b" backwards?

[She expects that he might not receive a good response, so she'll be keeping her attention away from BB unless he speaks to her directly.]

1/2

[mikooon]

[OH

FUCK]

That's actually rather smart!

[...]

ROOM SEARCHES

[raisingproject]

At around 7 PM ICly, everyone will be teleported to the lobby to do room searches. Fav of course will announce that all the rooms of the suspects are now open.

Please specify on your top levels whose room you're searching! Thank you.

ERUNA'S ROOM

[crossingout]

I hope you're ready, because I bet Eruna-chan's room is probably going to be a mess if she's telling the truth.

[ Zange just smirks and goes to open the door wide. Let's see what we have here, shall we? ]
