AN: Merry Christmas! I wanted to post this MUCH EARLIER but I've been having internet issues. Sorry it's so late.
For the soundtracks, please refer to the list in the last chapter. In addition to that list, the following soundtracks have been added. I also recommend you read this chapter more than once. I admit myself, it is quite confusing. I also recommend reading the AN at the end of the chapter as I will clarify a few things about what just happened.
Also, I just wanted to mention to MizunashiFuyuko, is that the trial takes place in front of a diner, lol. Unless you approve of a strip club being the location for the next trial... also OTP means one true pairing.

Soundtrack: Welcome to DANGAN Island!
MEOWYKINS: Meow! Oh, how intense!
MEOWYKINS: It seems like everyone is on pins and needles today..!
MEOWYKINS: Who, oh who, could the culprit be?!
MEOWYKINS: Remember! Reading in a dark room is bad for your eyes!
MEOWYKINS: I should know, I'm a bunny!
MEOWYKINS: ...Never mind! I'm actually a dog. Meow!
COURT IS BACK IN SESSION!
Soundtrack: Class Trial DAWN EDITION Volume Two
MONOKUMA: Ohio gozaimasu!
MONOKUMA: Oh Meowykins? Is that how fans of the Japanese culture type it out on Tumblr?
MEOWYKINS: Meow! I do not know, as I do not have fingers!
FURO: A-anyways...if the murderer was wearing a cape and a mask...
FURO: How is it even possible for us to identify the killer?
MIRAI: Hmm...
MIRAI: There's still a mystery that we haven't cleaned up yet, actually.
TAKAYASHI: The mystery of the little girl named Ellie!
FURO: No one gets your references!
MIRAI: First off, we know how the killer was able to subdue Micky, right?
KEIKO: The killer came to the library, and threw the textbook directly onto Micky.
KEIKO: That caused Micky to be knocked out, right?
MIRAI: Mmhmm.
TAKAYASHI: Such delicacy..! Such amazement!
TAKAYASHI: That's an amazing piece of art!
RHYSSA: Murder is not art!
KAITO: Was there anything else you found at the trash room that could be useful..?
MIRAI: Yup.
MIRAI: In fact, we found a pencil, and a needle.
MIRAI: The needle was covered in blood, and the pencil was fine...
KEIKO: Also, we saw a suspicious piece of paper...it was ripped off, so...
FURO: A ripped piece of a paper, and a pencil...
FURO: ...God! No, that was not me!
MIRAI: Then that leaves Ryoko-chan, right?
RYOKO: Huh? Me?
MIRAI: This needle is the needles that tattoo artists use, right?
RYOKO: Yeah? So?
MIRAI: I'm not accusing you of being the culprit...
MIRAI: But I think that you're involved with this case somehow.
RYOKO: Hell no!
NOAH: Do not feel bad about it.
NOAH: We all know that you were under the influence.
RYOKO: Well I ain't lying!
RYOKO: I don't give a crap if there was a bloody needle...
RYOKO: Sorry bub, that ain't got to do with me.
KIREI: B-but, if it wasn't you, or Furo...
KIREI: Then who was it?
TAKAYASHI: W-well! It had to be them!
KIREI: I-I'm sorry..!
KIREI: …
TAKAYASHI: Why are you apologizing?!
SHOUGO: Then essentially...it basically means that one of you is lying.
FURO: One of us is lying..?
MIRAI: If you think about it, the evidence we found in the trash room casts some suspicion on Furo, doesn't it?
MIRAI: It also casts some suspicion on Ryoko as well.
RYOKO: Say that again, you airheaded freak!
KEIKO: But it's true...
MIRAI: But actually, I find it a bit strange, don't you?
FURO: Strange? What's so strange about it..?
FURO: Er, I mean, well, yeah. It is strange...
KEIKO: What's so strange about it?
MIRAI: Hmm...a needle and a pencil put together...
MIRAI: That casts suspicion on our two artists, doesn't it?
RYOKO: Well, I guess I am technically an artist!
KEIKO: She seems proud...
HIKARU: Are you saying that those two pieces of evidence are unrelated?
MIRAI: Not unrelated. They are still very important pieces of evidence.
MIRAI: It's just that I don't think we should rely on them so much as we think.
NOAH: Let's assume that the needle and the pencil did belong to Ryoko or Furo.
NOAH: Then what would happen?
MIRAI: Obviously, one of them had to have dropped it while disposing of the evidence, right?
UNMEI: Um, if one of them dropped it...
UNMEI: Then it's sort of confusing...
UNMEI: ...Oh!
NOAH: I see. So the killer could have used the needle and a pencil at the same time to cast suspicion on both of them.
MIRAI: Of course, that's where the killer made a mistake.
MIRAI: The killer could have thought they were going the extra mile, but what they were really doing...
MIRAI: ...was making it very obvious that they planted red herrings at one of the crime scenes.
TAKAYASHI: Wooow...so the killer planned this thing out a lot, didn't they?
SHOUGO: Well, then, in that case, isn't it possible that the killer was Furo or Ryoko?
MIRAI: ...Well, yes.
SHOUGO: The bloody needle could have been kept by Ryoko, and it could have fallen out while she was throwing away the evidence. Then she could have planted the pencil as a red herring.
SHOUGO: And the same goes for Furo. He could have done the same thing, except he could've planted the bloody needle, and then accidentally have dropped the pencil.
MIRAI: ...Very true.
SHOUGO: So what are you trying to say?!
MIRAI: Well, I haven't finished yet, either.
MIRAI: Remember what Keiko also found?
KEIKO: I found something else..?
KEIKO: Oh yeah, that piece of paper...
KEIKO: I was convinced it was unrelated, so I didn't say anything about it...
KEIKO: But how would that be related at all?
MIRAI: Hmm, so many questions..!
MIRAI: A bloody needle...a number two pencil...and a random ripped piece of paper.
MIRAI: It's confusing, isn't it?
TAKAYASHI: Hell yes it is!
NOAH: Before we go onto that subject, there is one thing that bothers me about your theory, Shougo.
SHOUGO: Mine?
NOAH: Assuming you are right, what if Furo did commit the murder?
FURO: …
NOAH: There would be no motive. What would be the point of killing someone over a movie?
MONOKUMA: Upupupu! Didn't you remember? I said earlier that one of the most common motives of killing is a copycat murderer!
MONOKUMA: Some people are into some really strange things...like perhaps killing someone!
MEOWYKINS: But, Meowykins-sama! We already have a psycho killer!
MONOKUMA: Oh? Do we?
MEOWYKINS: Yup! Y'all aren't forgetting about Yayoi's past, are you?
MONOKUMA: Oh right! She was a sadistic little girl, wasn't she?
MONOKUMA: So I guess it would be a bit of a stretch to have two psychotic killers in our school!
FURO: So are you saying that I'm innocent?
NOAH: ...Well, there's always that offchance that you really are sadistic.
FURO: And I take offense to that...
NOAH: But without the presence of a motive, I think we should put aside that theory for now.
RYOKO: Wait a minute..!
RYOKO: Then that leaves me! I didn't commit the crime!
NOAH: Is the blood on the needle just for fun, then?
RYOKO: Ha! You're grasping for straws.
NOAH: Think about it.
NOAH: The killer would not have been able to get a tattoo needle.
NOAH: It had to have been you. Either that, or you're along the lines of an accomplice.
MIRAI: Just a moment please...we still haven't finished talking about that ripped piece of paper, have me?
KEIKO: Like I said, it probably doesn't have any relation to this case.
MIRAI: ...And what if I said that this little piece of paper can change the entire case completely?
TAKAYASHI: A small piece of paper, changing the fabric of time..?
TAKAYASHI: This is not a fantasy football game, Mirai! Get your shit straight!
KAITO: I am feeling a little bothered by something that might relate to the paper.
KIREI: B-but what's that..?
KAITO: The costume. How exactly did the killer make it?
HIKARU: It is obvious to see that the costume had to have been manmade.
HIKARU: However...I do agree. It's origins are dubious.
KAITO: ...The mask...it's made out of pure white paper, isn't it?
KEIKO: Yeah, it is.
UNMEI: Wait a minute!
UNMEI: You aren't suggesting that the white piece of paper actually came from the mask, are you?
KEIKO: That does seem to be a bit of a stretch, Kaito...
KAITO: It is a stretch, but it's the only possible thing I can think of.
KEIKO: But, it doesn't make sense.
KAITO: Why not?
KEIKO: Because...
ANSWER THE QUESTION: Why doesn't it make sense?
Why am I even doing this?
It doesn't match up with the timeline.
The white paper doesn't match up with the mask.
There's no blood on the white paper.
There's blood on the cape.
KEIKO: This is it!
KEIKO: It doesn't match up with what we perceived the timeline to be.
KAITO: The timeline..?
NOAH: Let's review then, shall we?
NOAH: The killer first in his steps, went up to the library, and knocked Micky out with the textbook.
NOAH: Because of that, the textbook fell behind Micky.
TAKAYASHI: Then after they knew he was knocked out, they went to the cafeteria, and took a piece of broken glass...
TAKAYASHI: Then they gutted him like a fish!
TAKAYASHI: In the throat that is.
KAITO: How does this interfere with the timeline..?
KEIKO: It's simple.
KEIKO: The killer threw away all the evidence in the trash room, after the murder was committed.
KEIKO: If the killer made the costume somewhere else, then why would the piece of paper be in the trash room at the first place?
KEIKO: …
KEIKO: Wait a minute...
KEIKO: I think I just said something weird...
NOAH: So I suppose we should think of other options...
MIRAI: ...Hmm, actually, hold on a second.
MIRAI: Can I bring something else up before Keiko continues..?
MIRAI: ...There's something strange about that textbook...
NOAH: It was a weapon used to knock out Micky.
NOAH: We will discuss that later.
MIRAI: ...Well, alright...
MIRAI: I think Keiko might be wrong here, as well as the rest of you.
TAKAYASHI: Hoo! So honest...
NOAH: What are we wrong about..?
MIRAI: Well, it's not so much the timeline.
MIRAI: But what Keiko just said assumes that the costume was made somewhere other than the trash room.
KEIKO: ...But, it was. It had to have been.
MIRAI: And why?
NOAH: If you are saying the costume was made somewhere else, then pray tell us where you think it was made.
MIRAI: ...Well, it had to have been made...
MIRAI: ...Oops. I forgot...
TAKAYASHI: Again?!
KEIKO: ...Mirai is right though, isn't it?
KEIKO: Because I know I said something weird.
KEIKO: Where was the costume made..?

TRASH ROOM
KEIKO: I figured it out!
Soundtrack: Class Trial FUTURE PART
KEIKO: Are you saying...that the costume was made at the trash room?!
FURO: W-wait a minute...but that changes everything...
FURO: Then that means that the needle and the pencil..!
MIRAI: Mmhmm. They weren't red herrings.
MIRAI: They were left behind by the killer, because they were just tools that the killer used to make the costume.
KEIKO: And the ripped piece of paper?
MIRAI: A remaint from the mask that was clearly made of paper as well.
KAITO: Wait a minute...
KAITO: If the needle, paper, and pencil were used just for that purpose...
KAITO: Then how can we identify the killer now?!
UNMEI: We have no more evidence to use, do we?
MIRAI: …
MIRAI: Oh. I guess we don't.
NOAH: B-but, Mirai, are you sure about this?
NOAH: How do you explain the blood on the needle then?
MIRAI: Well, the killer easily could have pricked themselves.
NOAH: ...No they couldn't have..!
NOAH: The freaking needle is covered in blood, you know!
MIRAI: …
MIRAI: Well, maybe they didn't use the needle then.
RHYSSA: Then what did the killer use?
MIRAI: It was a trash room at a high school...you could find anything, even a cape.
MIRAI: In that case, the killer made the mask in the room.
MIRAI: That explains the pencil and the ripped piece of paper, doesn't it?
NOAH: Well in that case, how can we even explain the existance of the needle?
NOAH: It was bloody, meaning that it had to have some involvement in this case, no?
MIRAI: Are you sure about that..?
NOAH: Hm?
MIRAI: Well, we already established the possibility of the needle being a red herring...
NOAH: But the needle was a part of the costume, wasn't it?!
MIRAI: ...I don't know.
NOAH: Of course...
MIRAI: But did anyone need to use a needle for this?
NOAH: ...What?
HIKARU: We have assumed that a needle was used for this costume, because it was handmade.
HIKARU: However, that is what Mirai is questioning right now, correct..?
MIRAI: Mmhmm.
KEIKO: ...Why wouldn't the needle be used in the costume though..?
ANSWER THE QUESTION: Why wouldn't the needle be used to make the costume?
Because the needle was too dangerous.
Because the needle is unrelated to this case.
Because the needle was a red herring.
Because the costume was already made.
Because the mask was already destroyed.
KEIKO: This is it!
KEIKO: I agree with Mirai...
KEIKO: I don't think the needle was used in the production of the costume.
KEIKO: Instead, the cape was probably just remaints from the trash room itself.
NOAH: Then what about the mask?
RHYSSA: Um, why would you need a needle to make a mask?
RHYSSA: I think that's probably where the ripped paper came from too...
RHYSSA: They made the mask by ripping it!
NOAH: I see...
NOAH: Well, it seems like whoever the killer was...they had to be crafty, didn't they?
KEIKO: ...Crafty...
KEIKO: Crafty? Someone good with their hands?
FURO: Tch...what a killer.
KEIKO: ...Hmm...
KEIKO: I think...I have an idea.
KEIKO: But I want to make sure first. I don't want to make any false accusations like last time, so...

NOAH: Our killer...they were quite good with their hands it seems.
FURO: All I know how to do is draw though...
FURO: So don't go accusing me, alright..?
RYOKO: Well, then the next crafty person would be me...
RYOKO: But I don't know how to draw either...
MIRAI: …
MIRAI: Whoever made the cape and mask would have had time before the murder happened...
MIRAI: Meaning they had to make it early in the morning.
TAKAYASHI: Heehee!
TAKAYASHI:==Maybe it wasn't someone talented in drawing at all!==
KEIKO: I concur!
Ammunition Used: [Cape and Mask]
Soundtrack: Class Trial FUTURE PART
KEIKO: I agree with Takayashi!
TAKAYASHI: *gasp* You do?!
TAKAYASHI: I have been blessed! One of the smart people at the court trial agrees with me, haha...yes!
KAITO: But...if it wasn't someone crafty, I don't see how they would have been able to create that mask.
KEIKO: Well, I have an idea about it...
KEIKO: But first, before talking about that, I want to bring everyone's attention back to the needle.
UNMEI: The needle? Why that?
KEIKO: Well, how do you think the blood got onto the needle, anyways?
UNMEI: Um...gravity?
KAITO: Obviously not.
SHOUGO: Well, I suppose the killer must have somehow plunged the needle into their skin.
SHOUGO: They did want to create the needle as a red herring, didn't they?
KEIKO: ...No. Thinking about it more and more, it's strange.
KEIKO: I mean, who would have even thought that we'd go into the trash room?
RHYSSA: Good for me, right?
RHYSSA: If it wasn't for me, we wouldn't even have gone in there...
RHYSSA: Oh!
RHYSSA: The trash room is nearby!
SHOUGO: What are you going for, Keiko..?
KEIKO: Think about it...if the killer didn't think we would go into the trash room...
KEIKO: Maybe the needle wasn't a red herring at all, but something they wanted to dispose of at the start.
NOAH: Something...they wanted to dispose of?
KEIKO: Take a look at the cape and mask again.
KEIKO: There's blood sprayed on the cape, right?
MIRAI: But why isn't there blood on the mask? That's your question, isn't it?
KEIKO: Yes!
MIRAI: Hmm...why there isn't blood on the mask...
MIRAI: And this relates to the needle, because you think blood got onto the needle too?
KEIKO: Yes...
KEIKO: Blood must have gotten onto the needle!
Soundtrack: Class Trial ODD EDITION
NOAH: Lock it up and shut up!
NOAH: Keiko, that reasoning...
NOAH: It's undeniably flawed.
KEIKO: Flawed..?
NOAH: I have to ask how you made such an overinsight.
NOAH: The needle? It was covered in blood.
KEIKO: So..?
NOAH: How is it possible the needle was exposed..?
NOAH: Or will you suggest that there's something else going on?
KEIKO: What do you mean?
NOAH: There was no way for that much blood to get onto a needle exposed.
NOAH: That's not the only flaw. Why would the killer even have a needle on them?
NOAH: In addition, why would the needle be outside of the cape, assuming the killer was wearing one?
KEIKO: W-well...
NOAH: The needle, if the killer did truly carry it with him or her, should have been under the cape.
KEIKO: …
KEIKO: Right...I can't argue with that...
KEIKO: But the needle isn't a red herring...it doesn't make sense for that killer to hurt themselves like that.

KEIKO: The glass...
KEIKO: I'm sure that wasn't the murder weapon!
NOAH: What the..?!
YOSHINORI: How can you say that after we discussed that much?!
YOSHINORI: The textbook was used to knock Micky out, and they used the surrounding glass as the murder weapon!
KEIKO: There's one thing I don't get about that though!
MIRAI: ...Hmm...I know what you're talking about...
YOSHINORI: So are you saying that they didn't use the textbook to knock Micky out..?
MIRAI: No...I don't think that's what she's saying...
MIRAI: It's probably true that the textbook was used to knock Micky out...
MIRAI: But actually don't you find it strange? There was only one piece of glass at the trash room.
YOSHINORI: Um, how should I have known that?!
NOAH: There was only one piece of glass found..?
MIRAI: Mmm...even more suspiciously is that the area around Micky was completely cleaned up.
NOAH: What are you saying then..?
KEIKO: Why do you think that there wasn't any glass around Micky's body?
NOAH: The killer cleaned it all up, of course...
KEIKO: So you'd expect it to be at the trash room right?
NOAH: Well, wasn't it..?
KEIKO: No! It was only that one piece of glass that was bloody..!
NOAH: Are you sure..? Did you not notice anything else..?
MIRAI: You were with us too, Noah...I'm surprised you didn't notice first.
NOAH: ...H-how...how could I miss something like that..?
MIRAI: Don't hurt yourself over it...I don't think that you were the one who found it.
NOAH: ...Wait a minute, you were, weren't you?!
MIRAI: ...Oh, I was.
NOAH: Is Keiko right..? Did you notice any other pieces of glass..?
MIRAI: ...No. I don't think so...
NOAH: T-then...
KEIKO: We've had this all wrong from the beginning..!
KEIKO: The killer probably dumped the other pieces of glass somewhere else at random.
KEIKO: But that one piece of glass...
KEIKO: That was the red herring!
NOAH: So...what this means...
NOAH: Is that the needle is the true murder weapon?!
FURO: ...I see...
FURO: This narrows down our selection a lot, doesn't it?
MIRAI: ...It does?
MIRAI: I think it helps, but "not a lot."
HIKARU: What do you mean?
FURO: Yeah...it's obvious who the killer is at this point.
RYOKO: Who..?
FURO: It's you Ryoko!
RYOKO: What..?! I'm the killer?!

FURO: And why the hell not?!
MIRAI: ...Furo...don't you remember?
RYOKO: Well I sure as hell remember!
RYOKO: It's impossible for me to have been the killer!
FURO: Are you kidding?
FURO: ==The killer could only be you!==
KEIKO: You've got that wrong!
Ammunition Used: [Ummei's Testimony]
Soundtrack: Class Trial FUTURE PART
KEIKO: No. It's clear why it's impossible for Ryoko to have committed this murder.
FURO: Why not?!
KEIKO: Because! Don't you remember what Unmei said?
KEIKO: The killer was of a small stature.
RYOKO: And I'm pretty fucking tall, aren't I?!
FURO: O-oh...
RYOKO: So the killer must be you, eh?!
MIRAI: Hmm...no...I don't think that's possible either...
KIREI: E-eh...why not?
KIREI: If it wasn't Ryoko...then it must be Furo..! For him to have made the mask...
KEIKO: But like I said, the killer shouldn't have been crafty with his or her hands.
KIREI: W-why not..? I actually don't think that was made clear...
KEIKO: Well, like I was saying before...we were talking about why there was blood on the needle and the cape.
NOAH: ...I apologize...I seemed to have derailed the conversation a bit.
KIREI: U-Um..! So are you saying that there's something wrong with the mask..?
KEIKO: Well, if there was blood on the cape and the needle, why wasn't there any blood on the mask?
NOAH: I see...
NOAH: If the murderer used a needle, it would have been rather difficult to cut it that deep, correct?
NOAH: The neck wound was incredibly deep, so it would have taken some effort for the needle to cut through like that.
KEIKO: It's only natural that blood would have gotten on the mask then, right?
KEIKO: That would mean that the mask was made after the costume was made by the actual killer.
RHYSSA: What? But... we found it at the trash room.
KEIKO: Yeah.
KEIKO: We did, didn't we?
RHYSSA: Y-yeah...
KEIKO: The mask had to have been created after Micky was killed!
KEIKO: That's why there wasn't any blood on it, and it also explains the existance of that ripped piece of paper!
TAKAYASHI: This...this is such a cunning piece of work..!
TAKAYASHI: I feel like I'm smack in the middle of one of Mr. Wright's famous trials..!
TAKAYASHI: Yahoo! Channel the Apollo Justice in you, Takayashi!
KEIKO: But let's think.
KEIKO: Now, the murderer options are narrowed down, because it couldn't have been any of you who gone deranged...
FURO: T-then who..?
KEIKO: It was one of us six...
KEIKO: It was one of us six that didn't go deranged at all!
KEIKO: And if it was one of us six that didn't go deranged...
KEIKO: There's one person it could be. It wasn't Furo, no. That pencil being planted was random, and proves that he was just a subject of another red herring.
KEIKO: Instead, there was someone who coaxed us into doing things...
KEIKO: Someone who was a great help during the investigation for her own benefit.
MIRAI: You also have to consider that whoever the killer was had to be able to create the mask post-mortem.
NOAH: B-but...are you sure?
MIRAI: It looks like motive really didn't have anything to do with this...
MIRAI: Instead, it was the deranged personality of one person.
MIRAI: You know who that person is, don't you Keiko?
KEIKO: ...It all comes down to this...
KEIKO: The murderer is clear to me now...even though I don't want to admit it.
KEIKO: The murderer... the culprit to this case is..!

Continued in Chapter 2: Section 8
AN: Confusing? Don't worry. The next chapter will explain everything, so even if you are hopelessly confused right now, just keep an eye out for the next chappie. Here though, I'll explain a few specific things that happened this chapter.
Basically it shouldn't have made sense that the murder weapon was the piece of glass, because of the lack of OTHER pieces of glass. If you recall, they made it perfectly clear that there was no glass around Micky's body, and during the investigation, there was also no more than one piece of glass mentioned in the trash room.
What also happened in this chapter was the revelation of the needle of the murder weapon. I'm afraid it was my fault in not making it clear, but a tattoo needle is much larger than a regular needle for sowing, and if enough effort is exerted, it certainly can be a murder weapon.
Finally, in case you didn't get it, the cape was already left behind in the trash room, meaning that the killer did nothing to create the cape. The mask however was made by the killer, and it was also established that the mask was made after Micky was murdered. Now the question is, who did it?
The next section in this chapter is the "thrilling" conclusion to this class trial..! I think it is pretty obvious who did the murder by this point, but what do you guys think..? Be sure to post your thoughts in your reviews...
Though TBH I'm not 100% proud of how this trial is turning out...it sounded much better planned out on paper, lol. Hopefully things work out for the best though..!
