Ch. 5 "Surrounded by a Snake" - Body Discovery & Investigation

I woke up to the Morning Announcement and got ready for the day. I'm still trying to process that Kazutaka is the traitor, working for Monokuma. Did Akihiko knew Kazutaka was the traitor or did he just know of the traitor? Despite sleeping on it, I still have no idea of how to feel about Kazutaka's betrayal. On one hand, Kazutaka has been lying to us for a while and was working with the person who we've been trying to take down. On the other hand, Kazutaka has been mostly my friend in this killing game. Is it really enough to ruin our friendship?

My thought was interrupted by a knocking at my door. I quickly opened the door and saw Hisato standing on the other side.

Ari: Good morning, Hisato.

Hisato: I don't have time for a greeting. You need to follow me immediately.

Ari: Why? What's happening?

Hisato gave a serious look, trying to imply what was going on.

Ari: No...

Hisato: I would rather not explain. You need to follow me.

I followed Hisato to the fourth floor and walked towards the girls' research labs.

Ari: I don't like the sound of this.

Hisato: I'm sorry, Ari, but you won't like what I'm about to show you.

Hisato led me to the room on the left side of the hallway past the girls' bathroom. What Hisato showed me was a terrifying sight.

Yorua Sciambra's lifeless body was a horrifying sight. I could barely hear the body discovery announcement over my scream. The other joined us in Yorua's research lab.

Ayano: Oh... my... god!

Yuki: Poor Miss Yorua.

Monokuma: Upupupupupupu... Another one bites the dust. I just know this is going to be an interesting case!

Kazutaka: Shut up, Monokuma!

Nia: Who are you to talk, traitor? You're probably the one who killed her!

Kazutaka: What gave you that idea?

Mikio: No one else would kill such an amazing person, except you.

It wasn't until then that I noticed the tears welling up in Mikio's eyes. Mikio lost the closest person to him in this school. I guess I know what that's like.

Monokuma: Stop you're blabbering! I'm just trying to give you your Monokuma Files!

Ari: What's the point if the appear in our E-handbooks?
