"Hm...I guess heading back for now isn't such a bad idea. We're probably going to be stuck here for a long time, so it's not like there's any rush to map out the whole place immediately."

>>6068
((Kedgeworth's response: "I found a water bottle, some lighter fluid, a bag of screws, a cup of noodles and a toy boat. Anything seem familiar? I'm still looking for my writing materials and paper." ))

Victoria: "I agree we can't go exploring without having food to run on."

You all return to the cafeteria to eat, where you find Ozaki grabbing some apples from the pantry.

((To Kedgeworth: "Oh, I think that the water bottle is mine. And we've found two pens so far...I'm using one of them, but you can have the other one if you want? We only have one notepad so far, though, and I'm using that...Your paper must be in one of the rooms we haven't searched yet."))

While we are eating, I address the others in our group. "...You know, I just realised...Victoria, when we were searching the rooms earlier, we skipped over yours, didn't we? We'll have to remember to check it later...I don't know why it slipped my mind at the time."

>>6070
((Kedgeworth: "I'll take one of the pens later when I find some paper."))

Victoria: "Don't worry, I forgot too. Things slip from my mind all the time. We might as well go check it out now I guess. Before I forget again."

She then goes to her room.

"Okay. We should go together, then...Being isolated is dangerous."

I follow Victoria to her room.

>>6072
Inside her room you both find:

1. Satellite phone
2. Bottled Water
3. Sharp Car key
4. “A Study In Scarlet”
5. Bottled Water

Victoria: "No chairs, no nothing. They must be hiding."

Victoria then proceeds to look through the rest of her room.

Suddenly all the TVs nearby turn on, displaying a picture of Monobear.

"Hello, everyone! One of you bastards asked me about setting fire to the forest, so I added a new rule:

New Rule: Anyone found to be destroying trees or other local flora will be severely punished! Non-destructive modification is allowed.

I hope that clears the situation up for you bastards. As for the buildings, they're fireproof. Trust me on this one. Because I'm a bear. And remember, only YOU BASTARDS can prevent forest fires!"

The TVs return to normal.

>>6073
Victoria: "I don't think any of these except one of these bottles of water is mine. I wonder where my boat went..."

Victoria: "Mr. Bear! Does this camp even have a lake? Also are the products in the bathroom the same in all the rooms?"

Monobear suddenly appears to answer her question.

Monobear: "Upupu, this camp does have a lake! Since you even asked about it, I'll tell you it's on the trail leading west from the dorm's main entrance. The products in the bathroom are the same, with the exception of feminine products exclusively in girls' rooms."

Victoria: "That's good, now I know if I run out I can ask to borrow some from the others. Thank you Mr. Bear. I've changed my opinion about you, you can be cute. You should really plan some more camp activities like a camp bonfire or a fun game."

Monobear: "Upupupu, group activities? Not a bad idea~"

He disappears.

Victoria: "I just got a great idea Rika! Let's have a slumber party. All 4 of us girls. It will be so much fun! We can stay up all night and talk and play games!"

>>6075
((Kirigiri: "Certainly. I found the following..
1.Stainless comb
2.Notebook
3.Small mirror
4.Saw
5.Rope
However, I'll need to hold onto the saw and rope for now." ))

"Ehhh.... This is a camp announcement. It is now 10pm. Night Time begins now.

The cafeteria’s doors will be locked shortly. You are forbidden to enter it.

Well then, good night. I wish you all have pleasant dreams..."

>>6075
"I, umm...don't know if that's a good idea. It wouldn't be good for us to be tired out when the morning comes, after all...Anyway, while we're here, there's something I want to check in my room.

You stay in here while I'm gone, alright? Your own room is the only place where you can be safe on your own, since you're the only one with a key. If anyone knocks, don't let them in until you've made sure that it's me or Mion-chan, okay? That applies to any time when you're in here on your own...Make sure you don't go wandering around during the night alone or anything like that. If there's somewhere you really need to go, knock on my door or Mion-chan's first so that we can come with you. As long as you always stick with one of us whenever you're outside this room, you should be okay.

...I'm only saying this because you don't seem to have grasped exactly how dangerous our situation is. I know it's probably hard for you to believe, but I am sure that there are people among us who would be willing to kill one of us for the chance to get out of here, given the opportunity. We have to make sure that they don't get that chance. I'm pretty sure that Mion-chan is trustworthy, and I know that I am, but I don't know about anyone else. Just make sure that you keep that in mind. I really want all of us to get through this...

Games like this that reward cruelty and violence are disgusting. Normally, in a game like this, a naive and trusting person like you would be the first to die. I really don't want that to happen. I won't let things go the way that bear wants them to. ...Anyway, just stay here for now. I'll be back in a few minutes to discuss how we should spend the night."

I leave the room and enter my own.

You go into the hall and see Kirigiri Rudolf and Philip enter their rooms. You enter your own.

>>6079
I enter the bathroom and experiment with the lock on its door. Is it possible to lock it from the outside, or only from the inside?

>>6080
The bathroom's lock can only be locked from the inside. It's a simple doorknob with a push-button to lock it.

>>6081
"Okay...Good to know."

I place the two knives that we obtained from Mion and Blake's rooms inside the sink cabinet. Then I leave my room and lock it behind me.

>>6082
You open the door and see Mion standing at Rudolf's door, across the hall.

>>6083
"Oh, hi Mion-chan. What have you been up to? I was just checking something in my room, but I was about to knock on Victoria's door and discuss our next course of action. Would you like to join us?"

>>6084
Mion decides to join you.

>>6085
"Okay then~"

I knock on Victoria's door. "Victoria, it's Rika. May Mion-chan and I come in?"

>>6086
She opens the door.

Victoria: "Why of course, it is much more fun with others they by yourself."

You see Rudolf following Mion. He asks you if he can see the inventory list.

"Oh, certainly."

I show him the inventory.

>>6088
Mion enters the room and sits down on Victoria's bed.
"Ahhhh, I"m tired. What a day, that place has everything to scare people. I tell you.

Well then, will you be joining us Rudolf-san?
This might be a good time to gather information and think about our next plan."

Rudolf: "I know for certainty that the shovel was mine, and I believe the zippo lighter as mine too. Any chance I can get those back? Most especially the shovel as I've always been rather fond of it. Or do I need to ask the people who still have them?"

Rudolf then turns to Mion and says "May I please have my shovel back?"

Mion: "Ohhhh, did you know that it could even open up canned foods? Yeah, give me a second, I'll go get it."

Mions stands up and leaves the room. Very quickly afterward she returns with the shovel and gives it to him.

Rudolf: "Ah, thank you very much."

Turning the everyone else in the room Rudolf says "True, we need to discuss our next course of action. Granted, I'm almost tempted to say we shouldn't stay in too large of a group, as we will be unable to move about and explore very effectively. Teams of 2 or 3 would likely be most effective."

"Yeah, I agree with you, Rudolf-san. I really wanted to keep everyone together at all times, but I quickly realised that it just wasn't realistically possible. Besides which, it's difficult to form close relationships and come to trust each other when there are so many people to keep track of...It's regrettable that I can't keep an eye on everyone, but it seems like staying in smaller groups is the best way to go from here.

I don't know if you're aware, Rudolf-san, but Victoria, Mion-chan and I have been working as a group for the past little while. I feel that I can trust both of them, and that we make a good team, so I'm hoping that we can try and stick together throughout this game. If we always try and stay with each other, then we should never be isolated, which should prevent any potential culprits from being able to attack. I don't know you very well at this stage, Rudolf-san, but if you are interested in joining our group, I wouldn't object.

That said, I feel that splitting into groups of two would be a bad idea. The reason for this is that, on the off chance that one of the two isn't trustworthy, they could murder their partner without any witnesses and "graduate". Therefore, I think it is best if we try to stay in groups of three or more at all times if at all possible. Of course, I'm not saying that I would feel afraid to be alone with Victoria or Mion-chan, but setting aside emotional reasons, it is a logical precaution to take."

Victoria:"Being in groups of three is more fun anyway. 2 a group, 3 is a party or something like that a friend of mine used to say. And I completely trust Rika and Mion, they are my friends."

Rudolf: "Nonsense, if a group of two existed and one killed the other, the murderer would be the most likely suspect. Killing your partner is bad because you'd come under a great deal of scrutiny about it and would likely be easily found out."

Rudolf then opens the door.

Rudolf: "Uhhh.... guys......... that lone wolf fellow is out here. So uhhh... whatcha doing there? Spying on us?"

Ozaki: "Yes... ... people should be sleeping right now. Everyone else has their lights off. I was worried that you guys were planning something but it seems your conversation is civil enough. You should get some sleep, night."

Ozaki then goes to his room. Rudolf also goes to his own.

((Gonna set an IRL time limit for Night Time; 12 hours from this edit. If you really have something to accomplish do it soon, etc., so we can move on.))

Mion: "Sooo, is there something you wish to talk about before we go to bed? If not, please take a look at this."

Mion gives you a napkin with something written on it:

RUDOLF USHIROMIYA: Super Seacat-Level Eccentric

Passive Skill - Corruption: Can properly wield any weapon without prior training and perfectly hit any target.

Active Skill - Don't Stop Thinking: Can extend the time limit on any trial for another 24 hours IRL; can only be used once per trial.

>>6092
"Well, I was going to try and formulate a plan for what we should do tomorrow, but maybe it would be best to just take things as they come..."

I look at the napkin.

"......Huh? That's...Is that the information from Rudolf-san's Gold Card? Where did you get that?"

>>6093
((Seems like Mion still has a few things to say, but in the event you're online it would be best to get a head start. What do you plan to do when you wake up in-game, at 7:00 AM?))

Last edited at 13/06/18(Tue)23:37:06

>>6094
((Probably just get the group together and continue exploring the campsite, assuming that nothing happens during the night.))

Mion: "Perfect. Where did I get it? You will know in time. I am giving it to you as a proof that our alliance isn't just words. I can guarantee that this is a copy of Rudolf's golden card."

She is about to leave. "Well then, Ill leave it at that for tonight, take care of yourself my friends and good night."

Mion then returns to her room.

A short time later you notice the lights flicker on and off a few times. It remains dark for a few minutes before light is finally restored.

((Do you go to your room and sleep or stay in Victoria's and sleep there?))

Monobear Theater

Monobear: "You know, I always try to do my best, but sometimes I just get distracted. It's really annoying when you're sitting there innocently, and all of a sudden a fly comes and interrupts your thoughts! And it happens again and again! It's almost like they want you to hit them! ...However, if I hit them, I question my morality. What makes it okay to kill bugs, but not people? Why is it okay to torture farm animals in factories to feed ourselves but feel great shame from watching those animal shelter commercials featuring dogs and cats? ...The ramifications of this double standard plague my thoughts too often."

((And so ends Day 1. That took way too long. I'll try and speed up the posting, but you guys better get killing each other soon. Or else we won't have anything to solve! However, you all did a good job exploring places. I look forward to a calmer playing speed... hopefully, less posts with more meaning, allowing the passage of in-game time to go faster. I've noticed that activity is at its highest from 7-12 and 16-20 board time, so perhaps you can plan ahead to post then. It's good to take a break from posting every now and then.))

Monobear: "Good morning, you bastards! It’s 7 in the morning! Time to wake up! Let’s all strive to do our best today!"

I get out of bed and leave the room.

>>6097
In the hall you see Kirigiri, Souda, Philip, Mion, and Victoria going to the cafeteria.

Last edited at 13/06/20(Thu)11:36:24

>>6098
I follow them, but stay a little way behind them, attempting to listen in on any conversation that is taking place.

>>6099
You arrive at the cafeteria. Looks like Ozaki got here first.

One by one, everyone else arrives, except for Drosselmeyer.

>>6100
I take a seat and gesture to Victoria and Mion to come over.

"Mi-. Good morning. I wonder where Drosselmeyer is? ......I suppose I shouldn't be too paranoid about it. He could just be sleeping in. I guess we'll just have to see whether he arrives or not."

I lower my voice slightly to avoid anyone outside the group overhearing.

"In the mean time...Mion-chan, would you mind if I asked you about that information on Rudolf-san? I am curious as to how you came about it...Is that one of your skills, to be able to read other peoples' abilities? Or did you actually see his card somehow?"

Last edited at 13/06/20(Thu)11:48:18

Mion: "Go get a pen, ill tell you everything I know."

>>6102
"...Huh. Okay then."

I take my pen and paper out of my backpack, looking at Mion expectantly.

>>6103
Mion: "Don't show this to anyone."

She then writes on the paper:

OZAKI: Super Seacat-Level Detective

Passive Skill - Golden Age Fan: Can instantly spot any classic closed room trick.

Active Skill - The Doctor Is In: Can fully heal another player, unless they are dead.

VICTORIA: Super Seacat-Level Innocence

Passive Skill - Porcelain Heart: Less energy is consumed when taking actions compared to other players.

Active Skill - Lust For Life: Can drop attack power to zero in order to recover all health.

KIRIGIRI: Super Seact-Level ???

Passive Skill - To Cut The Fog: Can see and hear better in the dark.

Active Skill - Autopsy: Can confirm with certainty a corpse's cause of death.

LUCAS: Super Seacat-Level Heir

Passive Skill - Rich Kid: Always carries an infinite supply of cash on hand.

Active Skill - Shadow Step: Can walk around without anyone hearing footsteps.

>>6104
"Huh...that's really interesting. Thank you for the information, Mion-chan."

I tuck the piece of paper into my pocket to make sure nobody else sees it.

"Then should I assume that is indeed your ability - to see other people's skills? Would you mind showing me your own card, in that case?"

>>6105
Mion: "Yes, it is the case. Here is my card."

Rudolf: "Looks like we've got to go find Drosselmeyer. Hopefully nothing ill has befallen them."

Kedge: "Anyone notice the lack of knives? Seems like someone's been busy."

Ozaki goes out the backdoor to investigate. He quickly returns saying that Drosselmeyer's room looks messed up and that he will be breaking in through the window. Lucas and Kedgeworth follow him.

* Ding-dong-ding-dong *

BGM: http://tindeck.com/listen/rlup

Suddenly the TV turns on, and you see Monobear on the screen.

"Attention, you bastards! A body has been discovered! Following a brief period of investigation, we will commence our camp trial!

Let me explain the supplementary rules regarding 'graduation'!! The fact that 'someone who kills another can graduate the school' remains unchanged, but... There is one more clause to that rule that must be checked, right? It’s no good just killing someone. You must hide what you’ve from everyone else! And so, the system to judge whether that was accomplished or not... ...is a 'camp trial' session we will enact a short time after a killing occurs! This 'camp trial' will commence a few hours after murder takes place! It will be a battle between the 'culprit' who committed murder... And the 'innocents' - the rest of you students!!

During trial, you will get a chance to debate 'who among us is the hidden killer' among yourselves. The result will be decided by vote, held at the end of the trial session. And then, if the answer you reach is the correct one... The culprit who disrupted public order will be 'punished', and the rest can go on living our camp’s communal lifestyle. On the other hand, if the wrong person is voted for as the culprit... The real culprit who committed the crime stays alive, but all the innocents will be 'punished'. If that happens, that will also be the end of our communal lifestyle, of course!

If I may speak bluntly... I’m talking about execution, of course! Execution means execution. Eh-kse-kyu-shon. Zap-zap in the electric chair! Choke-choke from poison gas! Maybe I’ll tear your body up in a hurricane storm! Judging people is a duty not to be taken lightly. Your very lives depend on it! Those are the rules of the 'camp trial'!!

Isn’t it time you start your investigation into who the culprit is? This is a file I’ve written, containing details about the body. It’s name is... ...The Monobear File!! It didn’t escape me that I’m dealing with a bunch of amateurs here and there’s a limit to what you can learn from examining the body... So instead, I gathered up technical details like the circumstances and cause of death for you. Isn’t that handy?! Aren’t you dying to know how I know the cause of death? I saw the whole thing happen through the surveillance cameras! I’m a first-hand witness!! Anyways, good luck with your investigation! It’s not like you have any choice! Well then, I’ll see you in a bit at the camp trial!"

MONOBEAR FILE: The victim is Drosselmeyer. The time of death was around 11:45 PM. The body was found in his room. Cause of death is a wound to the face made by a sharp object. Other than that, there are traces of damage to the head and right leg.

>>6108
>>8199
Kedgeworth and Ozaki return.

Kedgeworth: "All of you heard what the bear said. It's only logical for all of you to come and examine the crime scene before the trial starts and for us to discuss a strategy. I'd appreciate it if none of you decide to be smartasses and run off on your own, considering that it's all of our necks on the line here."

Ozaki turns to you, Mion, and Victoria. "So last night I left you three chatting in Victora's room. I know that Rudolf went back to his but I went to sleep after that. Would you mind telling me what happened after? Did you stay the night there or did you go back to your rooms? If the latter at what time and in which order? Also did you notice the lights go off at all during the night?"

Ozaki also asks you if he can see the inventory list.

Last edited at 13/06/20(Thu)23:11:04

>>6109
"Certainly. Mion-chan left for her room first, not long after you did...I'm not sure exactly what time it was, though. Then I left not long after her."

I show Ozaki the inventory.

"Incidentally, I'm going to bring this up now so that it doesn't put me under suspicion later. I took it upon myself to confiscate the knives that were found in Mion-chan's and Blake's rooms. I hid them in a secure location known only to myself. Therefore, it should be completely impossible for either of them to have been used in this murder.

Also, I should note that this inventory is incomplete. We were only able to search about half the rooms yesterday, so we didn't search Kedgeworth's, Ozaki's, Philip's, Drosselmeyer's, or Kirigiri's. Kazuichi did tell us about a few of the items in his room, but we only have his word for it, and he did not list all five."

>>6110
Ozaki: "Actually this works just fine. In fact it help narrow down my theories a lot.

Also what about my question about the lights? Did either of you see them flicker or go out at some point?"

* Ding-dong-ding-dong *

BGM: http://tindeck.com/listen/homz

"Ehhh... I am getting bored... We should start the show, don’t you think? The camp trial... everyone is waiting for!!

Well then, let me announce the gathering place! Please go to the crash site where all of you first met. The trial will begin once everyone arrives. Anyone who doesn't show up will be punished severely! Upupu... I’ll see you soon!!"

>>6111
"Oh...Now that you mention it, I did notice the lights flickering during the night. That was odd, wasn't it?"

>>6112
"Wha- Already?! I haven't even investigated the scene yet! Hold on, I'll be right back."

I quickly run over to Drosselmeyer's room.

>>6113
Upon entering you find Drosselmeyer's corpse lying on the floor. The dresser drawers are all open and are empty. The table is on its side, and the pillows and blankets on the bed are in disarray. The bathroom's door is open; the curtain is open and the shower pointed toward the door. Most notable is an electric generator sitting in the center of the room currently unplugged.

((Going to assume you'll be using your skill here~))

You find all evidence in the room: the corpse, the generator, and the clean carpet.

((Also in case you don't get online soon I'll force you to go to the crash site to not hold back the game.))

Last edited at 13/06/22(Sat)10:13:26

>>6114
I closely examine each of the three pieces of evidence in turn.

((Gonna start the trial after this post))

Corpse: Sharp wounds inflicted on the head, face, and right leg. Other than that the body seems normal (for a dead person). Items found on the body are a flashlight and canned food.

Generator: Has an ON/OFF switch, currently set to "ON" but unplugged from the wall.

Clean Carpet: It's clean. No bloodstains in sight.

You arrive at the crash site. The broken helicopter still sits where you last saw it, smashed to pieces into the ground. Looks like everyone else has arrived.

Monobear: "Upupu... Is everyone here? If that’s the case..."

Suddenly, you feel the floor below you rumble like an earthquake. The ground moves down, and once you're several feet underground, two metal plates close off the ceiling. You're in an elevator. The rough metallic sound of the elevator reverberates as you travel downward. As if to compliment the mood, the elevator kept tumbling on down and down. Finally, the elevator stops, and everyone goes through a single door...

Monobear: "Nyohoho! You’re finally here! Well, what do you think? Isn’t this just like a courtroom? The scenery is on par with a Hollywood movie, isn’t it? Well then, everyone - please take the seat with your name written on it. Hurry up! Hurry up!"

You do as Monobear says and go to your designated seat. The seats are arranged in a circle so that everyone is facing each other. You notice there are two extra seats with the names "Dark Kamijou" and "Wright" written on them, for a total of 14 seats.

Monobear: "Upupupu... Let's begin!"
