[CONTINUE + 4] week 1 || act: indict

[Saturday dawns, bright and early again. No one comes to the Inn, but you feel compelled to go to the Core anyway.

It's as if you're forced to. As if....it's inescapable. Puppets, forced to dance where their strings lead.

You make the walk past everything, until you are directly in the Core, where some kind of whitish, rainbow-gleaming liquid can be seen below.

In this area, you are led to a wider platform that is still open to the liquid before, with the handrails in place - where there are some seats around, and....surrounded by a sea of entirely gray faces, no Monsters to be seen.

This...for all of you, it is a familiar sight.

It is a trial location.

You are here to find the killer...and convict one of your own, in a murder that makes no sense.

But you have no choice.

You can only forge ahead....and try to find out the truth.]

VICTIM: ATSUSHI NAKAJIMA
ACT: VOTE

Did, um, did we find the knife anywhere?

I didn't find it on him when I was looking for contact traces of the culprit...

We should do a weapon check, but with the water right there it probably washed whatever they used. But can't hurt to check.

If it was on the smaller end, it could be some sort of pocket knife.

Yeah, it probably wasn't something big like a sword. But a pocket knife or a dagger could do it.

Maybe it's still on the person who did it?

Or at the bottom of the river...

Yeah they definitely could have tossed it too so it could be harder to tell but still I don't think it would hurt to check just in case.

Did we check the inn kitchen...?

[Surely they must have, right?

Even thought... that wasn't an 'option'?]

I don't think we did check there. [of course it's the one thing they didn't check...]

Well, even I have a knife I carry around, so... I-I guess we should start by seeing who has possible weapons, and who's... missing things?

Yeah, I think that would be a good place to start.

I don't recall anyone cooking that night... damn. A logical place to look and yet a place no one had thought to...

Yeah, I can't believe we didn't think about that either. [especially since the knife was definitely involved in this yet nowhere to be found]

If we have another week after this... let's, um, lets lock everything dangerous and out in the open up, the night before.

Yeah, I definitely agree— I'll help you out with that too.
