My eyes opened to the location I call my dorm room. My mind processed that today could be my last day in this place. My hear filled with hope, but my mind tried think of the consequences of reality. A trial of life and death. But this time it will end this game once and for all. I got ready for the day with a hint of bravery. I met up with the others on the sixth floor, where everyone was standing in a circle.
Yuki: There's our leader. Now then, I believe we can begin the investigation. I suggest that we investigate in pairs, just to be safe.
Nia: I like that, how about we investigate we all search with our loved one? It would be good, ya know? Just in case.
Mikio: I like that. Don't worry, Nia, we got this!
As if like that, everyone split into duos and our investigation began.
~Investigation START~
Yoichi: Guess you're stuck with me, huh?
Ari: Yeah, I guess.
Yoichi: I'm not really used to these "investigations", so I may not be too useful.
Ari: It's alright, that's what the rest of us are here for. We're a team, remember that.
Yoichi: Okay. I actually have two questions.
Ari: Alright, shoot.
Yoichi: One, coming from your big brother, are you doing alright?
Ari: Yeah, I'm just happy this nightmare can end along with my actual nightmares.
Yoichi: Nighmares?
Ari: Yeah, they would occur after every trial. They were always about those who died. They were weird, and they almost felt real. It was almost as if my brain was being messed with.
Yoichi: I have a feeling that may be important.
Ari: Okay, I'll remember it.

Yoichi: Second, more investigation guided, what do you remember from before the killing game?
Ari: It's kind of blurry. I remember life being normal. I went to school and styled hair when I wasn't busy. Then, next thing I remember... I was in a captive room, almost like a jail. Then, I found myself in a new room here.
Yoichi: Remember that.

Ari: We should go look around the captive rooms.
Yoichi: Is there really anything to find over there?
Ari: If our lives are on the line, then we should check everywhere just to be safe.
Yoichi: Fair enough.
We walked over towards the dormitories starting with the right side.
Ari: Oh god!
I looked down in front of a door and found a puddle of dried blood.
Yoichi: Oh...yeah...that.
Ari: Did you know this happened?
Yoichi: Kind of, we all assumed that happened from the screaming that day. I guess they couldn't bother to clean it up completely.

Ari: I should ask you before I forget. What do you remember before this killing game?
Yoichi: Let's see. It started when you were accepted into the Ultimate Hope Academy. There was a train that came to pick you up. I remember the family being so excited and taking you there. You boarded the train, then that's the last I remember seeing you. They asked a to make a video to send you for like final exams or something. Then, next thing, I know I'm here with my life on the line.
