28| The Last Classroom Trial

! !Classroom Trials In Action! !

Right of the bat, they started the trial right away, nervousness went up to their spines as goosebumps appeared.

"Since this will be the last trial, I'll also be participating. If you're able to identify Ikusaba Mukuro's killer as well as solve the mystery of this school, then you win! But if you're unable to do so... then I win!"

"The one who will lose will be executed, does that mean you'll be executed if you lose?"

"Of course! A bear does not go back on his word!"

"--If that's the case, I have a question for you, you're all in cahoots with the mastermind, right?"

"--Wait, I also have a picture!"

"--Same here, Monokuma said that it has a hint to help us."

"--I've got proof too, a picture that proves everyone except me is in cahoots with the mastermind."

"Wait, isn't this a trap the mastermind set to make us fight each other?"

"A trap? What a nasty thing to say, that's the real deal?"

"--I don't remember taking those pictures!"

"--Me neither,"

All of them argued about the fake pictures, traps that the mastermind set, was that really the case? The argument went on as this trial wasn't going anywhere.

"I get it now... how come I didn't realised it earlier?" Misaki said as there was a smirk on her face, all of the turned to her as she was staring on the ground. Her eyes were being covered by her hair.

"--What do you mean, Naomi-chan?"

"--Yeah, tell us!"

She looked up with a smirk, she folded her arms to her abdomen and stare at her classmates deeply.

"We all have an amnesia,"

Everyone gasped from her theories, it was clear they couldn't believe what she just said as their mouths agaped.

"--An amnesia, huh?"

"--As if I'd believe something so unrealistic and occult-ridden!"

"--You can't bring up amnesia out of nowhere, Naomi-chan!"

"She has a point, I mean—these group pictures aren't the only things pointing towards that possibility, the principal also left a video behind." Naegi said while showing them a memory card.

"--Video?"

"Yeah, it showed all of us agreeing when he asked that if it is okay for us to live our lives here, in this school."

Everyone was surprised and confused to what Naegi just said.

"--Huh?"

"--Why did we accept?"

"I don't know, if this pictures and videos real... then it makes all sense now, right?"

"--Yeah,"

"--That's crazy!"

"Your right as always, Misaki-san. All of you happily suffered a memory loss or an amnesia!"

Everyone was now really surprised that they took some of their memories away from the students.

"--But how does one take memories?"

"Oh please, will you believe if I said that I used hypnosis? Would you believe if I said I messed with your brain using neurosurgery? You wouldn't, right?"

"Then... what memories did you took from us anyways, Monokuma?"

"Dunno, anyways you shouldn't forget this is the classroom trial over the murder of Ikusaba Mukuro."

"It's already clear who the culprit is, who is the mastermind!" Naegi said as everyone turned to him, surprised.

"Oh? Beary interesting!"

Monokuma smiled happily, waiting for their faces filled with despair.

"Only 17 high schoolers set foot into this school alive, this isn't a lie, right?"

"Right, a bear doesn't go back on his word!"

"--Does this mean one of us is the culprit?!"

"No, that isn't it." Misaki said.

"Misaki-san, didn't you and Naegi-kun find ten corpses in the bio lab? That means the culprit is one of you punks!"

"That's wrong, there were 9 freezer compartments in use. However, 10 people died so far." Misaki explained as she turned to Naegi who nodded.

"That means the body we found in the botanical garden was a recycled corpse from the freezer," Naegi said.

"--The who was the corpse?!"

"The countless stab wounds on the corpse were similar to Enoshima's cause of death."

They tried to remember what happened back then, confirming if Misaki's theory was correct.

"--Forget the similar, they're exactly the same you know!"

"--So Ikusaba Mukuro, who was actually alive all along, is the culprit?"

Naegi sighed as he shook his head and looked down with a sadness.

"Someone attacked me that night, no doubt, that was the culprit—the mastermind!"

"Well, that may be true, but if you can't see his face then there's no way you'd know who it was. If none of you admit to being the culprit, then it must've been Ikusaba!"

"You're wrong! The person had a fenrir tatoo on their hand, but the assailant lacked it!"

"Oh I see... then it has to be Kirigiri-san who is wearing gloves all the time."

Kirigiri took off her gloves and saw awful burn marks that she earned when she was still a novice at being a detective, it was something that she didn't want to reveal to anyone... after all, it was awful, really awful.

"I'm cleared of suspicion now, right?"

"Well, I knew for the fact that Kirigiri isn't the culprit, the mastermind, and the person who hid the body is none other than... Enoshima!" Misaki said while pointing at the picture frame of the deceased person.

"--What?"

"--So it's her?"

"I'm Enoshima Junko? Where's your proof?"

"The pictures, all of Enoshima's faces there are covered... oh, and also the part when you unplugged the video that we were watching earlier!"

"It was a coincidence!"

"You did it because we wouldn't figured it out if we took one look at her face."

"Figured out what?"

"Isn't it obvious? That she isn't the Enoshima that we know!"

"What're ya talking about, you've all met her!"

"But all of us had an amnesia, it was like we'd never met before, the two despairs... Enoshima and Ikusaba had switched places right from the start!"

Misaki yelled as everyone understood it now, took them long enough.

"--So you had someone else use your name, making it impossible for us to notice."

"She faked her death by killing Ikusaba-san, who had switched places with her... the real Enoshima Junko is still alive! And she's the organiser of this school life of mutual killing, the mastermind!" Naegi ended.

Suddenly, Monokuma stopped moving as everyone glared at him.

"--Pretending to be broken?"

"--Give it up, Enoshima Junko."

"--It's over for you,"

"Over? Not really..."

Smoke appeared from out of nowhere at Monokuma's place, everyone cough as they heard a sinister laugh.

"I've missed you, Nao-chan."
