THE THIRD TRIAL

[It happens again, like clockwork. Once the final clues have happened, the elevator in the food court opens with a DING. It doesn't leave until everyone has gotten on, and the thought occurs to everyone that they shouldn't waste time.

An innocent man was ruthlessly murdered, after all. After everything that's happened.

Just as before, everyone who is still alive will find their favorite food and drink at their platform. And just as before, Akechi, Helena and Ren's platforms have now been lowered and covered with a white cloth, joining the increasing number of dead spaces in the trial area. Helena's platform, however, has an addition not present on any other deceased's platform: a single white lily, placed almost reverently on top.

Well. Whatever reason that lily is there, it shouldn't detract from the fact that there is a trial to be had here, once more. Its time to look at the evidence at hand, and to hopefully find whoever did this heinous crime.

So, it's time, Titled.

The trial for the murder of Ren Sanzashi, The Doorframe, has begun.]

So this was, like, the Boss's idea? Oh... my god...

[scienceofmagic]

Yes, I believe so. I can't be sure, of course, but... I think it was them.

[greatfascinations]

Grr... that's so totally like her... she does get a kick outta suffering.

[She sighs. Looks like Coco already knew this was a possibility, but the confirmation is at least an annoyance.]

[scienceofmagic]

...Why do you work for her, then?

[greatfascinations]

Well, those traits totally make her the best fit for what we do here... and we can't afford to fail.

[Explains why she went with it no matter what the reason was for someone trying to frame her.]

Sorry. I was gonna confess to the murder if you hadn't, like, done that.

[scienceofmagic]

I'm glad you didn't. You shouldn't have had to.
