What did we even have on that case? Some fabric? Bits of black plastic?

He had egg on his shoe and the knife matched his wound, but otherwise... the most we can figure is a fight in the ferris wheel.

The person would have been injured then, a good amount since there was so much mixed blood over the crime scenes from what was said.

[ Wow... ]

And since we never force people to strip or anything, we would've missed it. Plus there's a bunch of people who just came back from those adventures, so. We could have overlooked anything.

We'd need to consider those who went on trips as part of the suspect list, yes...

Arguing for strip check would be difficult to begin with. So many were against it the first time.

[ HE KNOWS. ]

I do still think it's weird and invasive but it should be a thing if we really have a suspect narrowed down. So maybe we ought to rethink our strategy for getting people to agree in those instances.

I don't disagree. [ WHO LIKES STRIPPING. ] It's unfortunate that we can't come up with suspect lists faster and earlier. Checking even a list of five can take a lot of time if we want to do it thoroughly.

If we go by the fabric, then it's probably Dante, Mizuki, Tama, or Kate.

[ BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE IS DEAD OR WAS OOC OUT ]

There's also the broken phone. Rin brought up that someone could've taken Shouki's, to cover for theirs being gone.

I see... That would make sense. Then we would have had to ask everyone to unlock their phones to prove that it's theirs. What a hassle.

I imagine they would have gotten a replacement by now, too. Belongings disappear, likely back to their owners.

We should've just pinged Shouki in trial again.

[ 100 times. ]

I don't think it's a good lead at this point...

[personal profile] obdure 2025-07-07 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
... Can you imagine getting caught because you swap phones and people start pinging your victim's number?

[ THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY ]

I wish I'd thought of it then. It'd have been a fitting way to find his killer...

[ he smiles a bit. ]

I think they wouldn't be able to live it down.

[ THEY PROB WOULD ALSO GET EXECUTED, but this isn't about that. ]

[ IGNORES DEATH FOR A SECOND ]

Even if they didn't get voted for, they'd have to live with that shame.

They'd know grief about not silencing the phone, yeah. The shame would be worse than death.
