"So, what about Kyubey, the [Super High School Level Observer] who's not here right now?"
"? What?"
"I mean, that guy shouldn't be a student, right? If Kyubey is the murderer, shouldn't he be involved in the class trial? Why haven't we seen him yet?"
A voice echoed from the crowd:
"That's right, if that guy can leave at any time, then this class referee is meaningless!"
Monokuma covered his mouth, looking as if he was waiting for you to ask questions, and announced the special rules for Kyubey to everyone present:
"Pfft, pfft, since you're so curious, I'll tell you simply and clearly."
"Special rules for Super High School Level Spectators:"
"If the [Super High School Level Bystander] becomes the murderer, then he will have the privilege of not being nominated by the [Vote]!"
Speaking of privileges, [Nobleman] Jushin Byakuya quickly raised his own questions:
"If Kyubey is the murderer, who will be punished physically?"
Black and White Bear blushed and smiled as he praised:
"As expected of a [Noble Young Master], that's a very insightful question~"
"Although you can't [vote] for [Super High School Level Spectators], the [voting] process will naturally be no less. Those who are [voted] will receive [corporal punishment]."
"But at that time, everyone who is innocent will be treated as a murderer according to the rules, and everyone will be subjected to [corporal punishment]!!"
Chapter 298 Search
"Um, by the way, what do you mean by corporal punishment that you kept mentioning?"
[Fan Fiction Writer] had a vague guess in his mind, but still hesitated to ask.
"Oh~ Simply put, it's an execution."
"What does execution mean?"
[Programmer] was the first to ask in disbelief.
"Punishment is punishment, punishment!!"
"Sit in the electric chair and bang! Breathe in the poison gas! Or have your body pounded by a machine! This is execution!!"
"So, if we find the murderer, only he will be executed, but if we find the wrong murderer, all of us will be executed?"
[Disciplinary Officer] translated what Monokuma said, appearing particularly shocked.
"In other words, if Kyubey kills someone, then we can only wait for death. If we don't want to die, we must kill Kyubey before the class judge. Is that what you mean?"
[Gambling Master] also gave his own interpretation of the special rules.
"Puff, puff, puff. Before that, I have to make it clear to you. Our new classmate [Bystander] Kyubey, due to his special talents, will not be able to graduate from the school even if he is killed~"
"Oh~ Then things are easy. Let's get rid of that dangerous guy first!"
[The biker gang] were eager to try after hearing this. After all, they had tried to take action before but were escaped in a strange way, which made Yamatoda feel a little bit upset.
"But, that's also part of our shared life, so if someone kills Kyubey, that person will also be the murderer, and a class judgment will be held, Bear~"
"Eh~ That's too cunning, wouldn't that make me invincible?"
The [Swimmer] saw that the dangerous person who had to be guarded against had to be replaced one by one, and he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the special status of the [Bystander].
"Don't worry, Xiaokui. If anything happens, I will take action."
[Fighter] Ogami Sakura, while comforting Shiohinawa Aoi, also looked at Monokuma with a sharp gaze.
"Pfft, pfft, I won't stop you. Rather, can you really do it?"
"No...if we don't try, then everyone...will just die!"
[Literary Girl] tremblingly pointed out the core of the problem, and at the same time, she had a thought in her mind about activating the backup hidden energy.
"I'm so happy everyone's so motivated~ But, now's the class judging time for [Super High School Idol] Sayaka Maizono, so don't forget the important part."
"Don't worry, I won't forget this kind of thing. Besides, it's too early to say anything about it now. The culprit in this incident may not be Kyubey."
Kirigiri Kyouko, who had not yet remembered her talents, was very rational and did not fall into Monokuma's assumption that Kyubey was the culprit.
"The rules I just mentioned will also be added to the school regulations, so please check them carefully!"
"wait!"
"Huh?"
"If that's the case, then why did you gather us in the gym? You could have said it just now. Aren't you giving the murderer time to destroy the evidence?"
[Baseball Player] roared with gritted teeth, and after this roar, everyone suddenly realized this and couldn't help but look at Monokuma again.
"Hahahaha, this is really interesting~"
"Wha...what's interesting?"
[Fortune Teller] asked with some trepidation because of Monokuma's sudden and strange translation.
"Because... the [bystanders] had clearly arrived a long time ago, but no one noticed."
"Humph, there's no point in trying to confuse people. I've been keeping an eye on the gymnasium door since we first came in. No one opened the door after we came in. Are you trying to say that Kyubey came in through your private passage?"
[The Young Master] didn't fall for this UFO-like trick and continued to pay attention to the only known entrance and exit of the stadium.
"Let me state in advance that I'm only here to make today's deal, so you can just ignore me."
"Huh? Hey hey hey hey!"
[Lucky] suddenly jumped up and looked at Kyubey who appeared behind him at some point.
"You...you, where on earth did you come from?!"
[Hot Girl] pointed at Kyubey who was surrounded by the crowd, her body trembling as she expressed her confusion.
Kyubey looked at the other party, as if he saw the true identity of the girl in front of him, and replied to the [Gal] with an attitude of knowing everything:
"Of course I came here because I wanted to see you. I hope you will sign a contract with me and become a magical girl."
"what?!"
Kyubey's behavior shocked not only the [Gal], but also the others. However...
"Alright, how long are we going to stay here?! If you don't hurry up and find some evidence, I'm going to call a class hearing!!"
Seeing that everyone's eyes were shifting away from him, Monokuma shouted at everyone with a very angry look.
"Go! Go! Go!"
Seeing that Monokuma suddenly started to drive people away, everyone left the gymnasium without saying a word, leaving only Kyubey and Monokuma standing in the center of the gymnasium.
"Bang~"
The gymnasium door slowly closed, and Monokuma's eye cameras looked directly at Kyubey, and asked doubtfully:
"Oh, you're not the real Spectator, right? Why do you look exactly like the Spectator?"
Kyubey sat on the gymnasium floor indifferently, and said to Monokuma in boredom:
"If you want to trade, please ask your intermediary to come over. I'll be waiting for you here. Please also tell them that if you want to trade with me, you can just come to the gym. Thank you."
"The... the person in the middle, Monokuma is Monokuma, and there's no one behind the bear!"
After Monokuma continued to say this with an angry look on his face, he turned around and slid into the Monokuma robot's dedicated passage, leaving Kyubey sitting alone in the center of the gymnasium, waiting for the trading partner to appear.
At the same time, the people who were kicked out of the gym did not go directly to investigate. Instead, after a brief discussion, they decided to let the "bosozoku" who was not good at brainpower and the "fighter" who supervised him be responsible for protecting the scene to prevent the murderer from destroying the evidence.
The others went to investigate the places they found suspicious.
Originally, [Lucky] should have been the main suspect because the body was found in Makoto Naegi's room. However, coincidentally, because of the special rules of [Bystander], the attention of most less intelligent people was diverted, so he did not face the situation of being deserted by everyone.
But for [Lucky], who was still immersed in the death of [Idol], he had no intention of commenting on such things.
Only [Hot Girl] stayed where she was and did not go anywhere else. She looked at [Lucky] who was safe and sound with a complicated expression, wondering what she was thinking.
But the [Girl] didn't ponder for too long. Instead, she turned her head and looked at the gymnasium door that blocked out sound and sight, muttering:
"This situation is out of the script, right? Is what happened to that guy really in the script?"
"Tsk, why is it still so similar to the script?"
Zhixing stood behind Makoto Naegi and watched him find clues of the decorative knife, scratches, toolbox, door handle, cleaned traces, and the most important one in his room.
The clue [11037] comes from Sayaka Maizono.
Zhixing couldn't help but squat down, then dipped his hand in the pink liquid on the ground, crossed the bathroom where there was no corpse blocking the way, and tried to connect the missing part between 11.
However, although it had been connected into an N, it was swallowed up the next moment as if the wall absorbed water.
Shizuo didn't try any more, but stood up and returned to Makoto Naegi. At this time, Makoto Naegi got the last clue in the room from the conversation with Kirikiri Kyoko who came to the room to investigate, and was ready to leave and go to Maizono's room to steal the motive video.
Seeing Makoto Naegi leaving on his own, Kazuyuki did not choose to follow him. Instead, he retracted his gaze and looked directly at the [Super High School Level Detective] Kirikiri Kyoko in front of him.
In other words, it is the two-dimensional white-haired Kirigiri Kyouko who exists in cognition.
After thinking for a while, Kirikiri Kyoko left Makoto Naegi's room under the watchful eyes of two observers, and then walked towards a direction that was very familiar to the paper industry.
"Hmm? Are you going to check the incinerator?"
While following, Kazuyoshi tried to find Yamada Ichi-san, but Yamada, who had the key to the garbage room, couldn't find him. Instead, Kirikiri Kyouko stopped in front of the door of an unmarked room.
"Are you trying to investigate me?"
Zhixing felt a little confused. Although his position here was somewhat special, as a detective, shouldn't he be following clues? Why did he come to this locked room?
"Sure enough, this is an existing room, not something built on the spot."
Kirigiri-san suddenly spoke up, startling Paper Line, who hadn't expected a response. He couldn't help but look at the other person's authentic two-dimensional style and asked:
"Can you hear me?"
Kirikiri didn't respond, but reached out and tried, only to find that the door was indeed locked. He couldn't help but sigh:
"Even during search time, we can't just enter other people's rooms? Or are the only ones who are special? "
Zhixing stared at the other person without letting go of the door handle. He touched his chin and thought for a while, then took out the dormitory key, his only personal belonging in Hope's Peak Academy, and then opened the closed door.
However, even though the door in front of him had been opened, Kirikiri still held the handle and carefully looked at the clues revealed outside the door of the room, without any intention of going in.
"It seems that she is indeed imitating what she sees and hears in reality. So... is she here to trade with me?"
I don’t know what switch was triggered or what conditions were met.
When Zhixing fell into despair of harming others and projected the two cognitive existences into reality, it seemed as if the entire function was open to Zhixing.
Although the paper line was unable to materialize the cognitive existence of Kamizuru Deryu, or the second generation's [Super High School Level Health Worker] and [Super High School Level Despair].
But other people, including Monokuma, can appear in this image space at will as long as Zhi Xing wants.
After Zhixing successfully manifested himself, he discovered that he was a real-life version and did not have a two-dimensional style. He then realized that these cognitions at this time were not so much manifested by Zhixing.
It is better to say that the audience's cognition is concentrated in this school, and all Zhixing needs to do is to use his authority over the cognitive world and integrate his own ideas into this cognition, so that he can materialize the other party's two-dimensional existence.
While understanding this premise, Zhixing also discovered another unfriendly thing.
Perhaps it is because Zhixing has a relatively high authority in the cognitive world, so it has a certain right to command these cognitive beings, but as time goes by, this right gradually disappears until the other party becomes an NPC that imitates its every move in the real world.
Although Zhixing was not very clear about this, he could guess that it was probably because his understanding of the other person was really not as good as so many people's understanding of him.
In fact, the other party is still a two-dimensional image. Perhaps it is because the cognitive existence is materialized in the impression space and is not exposed in reality.
Therefore, Zhixing discovered that except for Maizono-san, who was originally thought to be a corpse because of the photo, Kuwata-san, who was supposed to maintain a two-dimensional style, had become no different from a real person since some time ago.
If the other party had not shown the same desire to beat him up as they did in real life, Zhixing would have thought that Sangtian could also freely enter the impression space.
After understanding the other party's intentions through the cognitive existence of Kirikiri, Zhixing closed his eyes and began to silently recite the coordinates in reality in his mind.
Real world, Hope's Peak Academy, dormitory.
A flash of red light appeared outside of his sight, and when Zhixing opened his eyes, he had returned to the room where he had entered the impression space.
He walked quickly towards the door and opened it, causing Kirigiri Kyouko, who was about to look for the next clue, to suddenly withdraw her hand. She confirmed that the handle was opened from the inside, and then cast her gaze on the face that appeared from the crack of the door.
"Do you want to know the murderer of this case? Or the secret of the school? Or your talent?"
"As expected of a 'spectator', it seems you have learned a lot from the script you hold. Unfortunately, I'm not interested in any of this, at least not to the point of urgently needing to make a deal."
"Then what are you here for?"
"Can I come in and take a look?"
