To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

Don't bring up mystery novels; can't you find a single existing piece of evidence?

Even Durandal, who was fiddling with the speakers nearby, was getting a little bored.

Could you please confirm who the mortal is quickly? Don't delay her from playing the background music!

He looked... like he was just leisurely skipping breakfast.

This angered Raven and Fu Hua, who were facing off, and they both pointed the finger at Durandal as the culprit.

...This shows just how unreliable this whole process of identifying the criminal was.

People just treat it as a process; the result is not important.

Fu Hua's reason was also plausible: Otto owed her money and didn't pay her wages, so she ruthlessly killed him!

As Durandal stood bewildered, accepting their judgment, she noticed the background music had started playing again. She turned to look behind her, puzzled.

But it turned out to be Rita who had opened it.

The reason is... that it's really fun? The silly goose definitely couldn't stand it.

With practiced ease, she pointed her finger at Rita and immediately identified Rita as the culprit, the murderer who killed Otto!

"You're the murderer!"

"You're the more suspicious one!"

"that is you!"

And so, in the course of a long argument, the group gradually descended into a full-blown feud.

Based on their unique way of reasoning, it seems that everyone has been labeled a suspect and subjected to meaningless inferences.

"Eh? Wait a minute!!"

As Theresa screamed, everyone followed her finger and looked up, only to find that the screen that had originally been asking for identification of the murderer now displayed new words and a voice report.

The killer's name is being collected...

Mei, Durandal, Raven, Rita, Mei, Theresa...

— Confirmed to be the murderer.

As the electronic voice played out the last sentence, everyone present looked at each other in surprise and stopped arguing.

The scene... became somewhat awkward for a moment.

"So you're all the murderers! You bastards! All that makes sense considering how nonchalant you all seemed from the start!"

Kiana, who had been pondering for a while, suddenly shouted as if she had just realized what had happened, "No wonder she always felt that their investigation wasn't going very hard!"

She thought it was due to a problem with Otto himself.

Now it seems... they were the murderers all along! So what are we investigating?

She also recalled the first time she saw Otto; in a dark room, he accidentally tripped and fell, and the other Valkyries mercilessly finished him off, causing his actual death. Then, by chance, she was ejected, which led to her current situation…

As Kiana continued to investigate Otto's cause of death and confirmed her deductions,

Then, angrily declaring, "You are all murderers, and I will bring you all to justice!"

An electronic voice suddenly rang out; it was the counter that was counting the murderers. Behind the long list of names, a blank space remained.

"Only one murderer remains."

At this moment, the hall fell silent, and everyone cast puzzled glances at Kiana. "..."

The silent gaze seemed to say—what did you just say?

There were only seven people in the hall. Six of them were identified as the murderer, and the remaining one was obvious.

Oh—so you're a criminal too.

It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting.

"Hmm—uh—eh...?"

Kiana scratched her head, beads of sweat appearing on her forehead, feeling an extreme sense of embarrassment.

She... seemed to remember something?

In that room at the beginning, she did seem to step on something and even rubbed it hard. Looking back now, it seems to be roughly the same as Otto's face...

"Should we delete it?"

Kiana gave a thumbs-up to the back of her head, beaming with confidence.

If everyone is the murderer, then it's the same as having no murderer! Why should everyone arrest themselves?

Then, in an instant, the atmosphere in the villa returned to cheerful laughter thanks to this excellent suggestion, and none of the Valkyries paid any more attention to the person lying on the ground.

Until... the bomb countdown began.

"No, my villa is too small..."

The raven seemed to realize something, regaining its senses from the cheerful atmosphere, with a mixture of fear and a kind of practiced ease.

A violent explosion occurred on the island, and the villa was destroyed.
