Pushing open the dark red, disgusting door next to the video room, I could see all the survivors except for the rudimentary elevator.

When I saw this scene in the game, no matter when or where, my heart hardly fluctuated; It's only when I'm really there that I can feel it...... Fear.

On the guillotine, even if you don't die...... Still can't avoid the fear of having your hands soaked in cold sweat......

Oh no, from now on, it will never be "hands" again. Is...... Irony.

"You're so slow." The Ten Gods White Night said lightly sarcastically, and I reciprocated with a blank eye.

"Onikawa-kun, your hand...... Does it really matter......" Naeki Makoto glanced at my right side worriedly, and the attention of others finally shifted from me not wearing a black robe to my hand.

With a bitter smile, I slowly picked up my sleeve and said, "Don't worry. I'm left-handed, and life won't be affected. ”

With a twitching expression on the corner of his mouth, Naeki Makoto told me that what he wanted to ask was not this at all.

"Could it be that because Kikawa-chan is a murderer, he is scared and deliberately delays time?" Kuwata Lianen crossed his hands on his hips and asked disdainfully.

"Your Excellency must be coming soon," I retorted mercilessly, "and this is where Your Excellency can be most valuable during the search." ”

"What do you mean?" Kuwata looked at me blankly, as if he didn't understand.

"You're the least out of the way only when you're waiting for the elevator," I lifted my face and glared at Ryan Kuwata with my left eye, "I obstructed the search before, and I'll ...... Obstruction of school-level trials. ”

"What did you say!" Kuwata was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves, waved his fists, and asked loudly.

"Don't fight," Sakura Okami turned around, with a sense of non-anger and self-authority in her voice, "I don't know anything about reasoning, and I didn't help much with Asahi-kun's death. Only by following the truth that you have obtained can you avenge Asahi-kun. ”

It didn't take long for the elevator fence gate to finally open, and we entered the elevator one by one.

With a shrill roar, the elevator slowly sank. It's a bad feeling, not because of the enclosed space of the elevator and the oppressive feeling that seems to be suffocating. There are a lot of people next to me, but I think ...... Quieter than empty.

Perhaps this is the feeling of a prisoner waiting for the death penalty at this moment......

I'm reminded of the elevator in the big city in the old movie. The creaking sounds, the rudimentary walls and iron fence gates are annoying to listen to.

Finally we all came to a rotunda with blue walls and golden arches, and dark red curtains. The floor is black and white tiled, and the central part is surrounded by a ring of eighteen podiums.

"What do these podiums look like...... Much like the dock of a courthouse. Hibiko Kiriki commented.

"More like the Inquisition of medieval Ibiliva." Cyrus added calmly.

"That's right!" On the opposite side of the elevator door, on a high throne, the black and white bear raised its paws and shouted with full anger, "This is the school-level referee field!" Please follow your number! You are the judge and the defendant. Debate freely, and when you have the result, press the button on the table to vote for the murderer you identify. If correct, only the murderer will be executed; If he is wrong, the killer can graduate, and the other students will be executed. Okay, now, whose despair will end with the school-level referee who carries the hopes of all the students and the murderer? Woo puff—"

Yes, this is a judgment of hope.

Merely...... The majority wants to be punished, and what wants to destroy their own hopes, the hopes of the few.

I stood in the "4" position. It's really a good place, Cyrus on the left and the Ten Gods White Night on the right, a smiling tiger and a cold-faced tiger.

I know that I haven't recovered from the state of blood loss, but my brain is still running at high speed, reminding me of another thing.

"What does that sign over there mean?" Kiri Kiriko pointed to a sign in the distance. The sign depicts a portrait of Aoi Asahi with a large, red cross drawn on it.

"Even if you are a sacrificial companion, you should take their hope and participate in every school-level judge together, right?" The black and white bear asked playfully.

"Anyway...... Is there any meaning that there are only 16 of us here, but there are 18 seats here? Kiri asked aloud.

"It's nothing, it's just that there can be eighteen students here," the black and white bear waved his hand, "Let's start quickly!" ”

That's it...... School-level referees began.

Never mind. In contrast, it's better not to find out who the eighteenth person is for the time being.

……

The first to speak was Kiyoshi Ishimaru, who shouted angrily, "First of all! It was Asahina Aoi who was killed, there is no doubt about it! ”

"This ...... Isn't this obvious...... "Fuyuko Fukawa kept her head down, playing with the tips of her braids, "everyone can see ......"

Ishimaru Kiyotaxia stood upright, closed his eyes, and shouted loudly: "In that case, everyone close their eyes, and the prisoner will raise his hand!" ”

"Stupid. Who would take the initiative to admit this kind of thing? Owada Wentu complained.

Shishen Baiye lowered his head, coldly lifted his silver-rimmed glasses and said, "Let's sort out my thoughts first." First of all, the place of the murder was Asahina's room, do you all admit this? ”

After silence and long reflection, several of them nodded, including me.

And ...... And......" Hagakure Lu Bikang seemed to be still immersed in panic, and his voice was also intermittent, "I remember, Asahina's body was found in bed? ”

"In other words...... "Chihiro Fujisaki added tremblingly (ironically, the two people who had been trembling in the gymnasium and had not participated in the search in the original work became the first to reason about the case), "The prisoner took advantage of Asahi-san's sleep...... I was killed by the murderer in bed without resistance. ”

"Wow-this murderer, I'm so lucky......" Yamada Ichizusan lifted his glasses, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, "The murderer is ...... How did you kill him? ”

"Huh? Why is Yamada-san looking at us with such an expression? Sensing "a certain meaning" in Yamada's eyes, Sayako Maihara covered her mouth in fright, and her face turned crimson.

"What a perverted dead pig." When it comes to Yamada Ichi, Cyrus always has a poisonous mouth.

Without revealing a trace, I stole a glance at Miao Mu Cheng. He had been meditating, as if he had no intention of speaking.

Could it be that Maihara is not dead, and the seedlings are not awakened?

That's right...... If there is no on-demand broadcast of the fog cut Hibiko, how can Miao Mu Makoto wake up?

I raised my only remaining hand, interrupting further discussion in a still clear voice.

The Ten Gods White Night and the Misty Cut Hibiki opened their mouths in unison. Seeing someone speak, he stopped speaking in time and turned his gaze coldly to me.

"I'm a little confused. Asahina Aoi she ...... Was it really killed in bed? ”
