This doesn't make sense at all, so in other words...
The truth is very likely that after Sayaka Waltz died, the murderer moved her back to the bed to stage the murder scene.
Although making such a deduction under the current circumstances may seem like a digression, this is indeed what Kanzaki Teru originally wanted to say.
"But why would the murderer go to such lengths?"
Although this explanation sounds perfect, the most crucial question is why the murderer would do something so thankless and difficult.
However, once this point is understood, the killer's behavior can be explained.
"It's a very simple point: conceal the time of the crime so that we can be directly misled into believing that the crime was committed after Sayaka Waltz fell asleep."
However, it now seems highly likely that she was murdered before going to sleep.
After all, it was her first time committing murder, and the murderer probably never expected that Sayaka Waltz's time of death would be recorded in the student handbook.
This caused her attempt to cover up the time of the crime to fail directly, but this can still be a clue for us.
However, if we don't see the clues given in the student handbook, we could easily be misled by the real culprit.
Of course, the information in the student handbook could also be false.
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru say that, Monokuma jumped up from the stool.
"How could that be? I would definitely provide truthful clues fairly and impartially, and I would never provide false clues."
Although Monokuma reacted strongly, Kanzaki Teru did not intend to believe everything.
However, Kanzaki Teru has no other clues on this point for the time being.
After all, there are no investigative tools here, and no way to collect fingerprints or similar items.
The only way to gather information was through the most basic methods, but the perpetrators were just high school students.
They lacked the skills and experience to kill, and their methods for destroying clues were also very rudimentary.
Kanzaki Teru had almost completely sorted out the case without seriously searching for clues.
After hearing Kanzaki Teru say this, I thought Togami Byakuya would have some other reaction.
But he remained calm, as if he had expected it all along.
Even so, this doesn't prove you're not the murderer; it only reconstructs the crime, not clears you of suspicion.
Chapter 338: Another Possibility
"That's true. Let's continue to analyze the case, because that's the only way you can see the truth of the matter."
Seeing the other party's reaction, Kanzaki Teru roughly understood what the other party was thinking.
"The most crucial question is: why did Sayaka Waltz die while wearing her school uniform?"
"Isn't it because she was murdered before she went to sleep?"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's question, Fujisaki Chihiro raised the simplest of questions.
"That's true, but we can also deduce something from it."
First, we can divide the crime scene into two possibilities: one is that the crime scene was in Sayaka Waltz's own room.
After committing the crime, the murderer put her directly on the bed.
If that's the case, then the murderer is very likely male.
"Why do you say that?"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's deduction, Enoshima Junko also expressed her doubts.
Actually, Kanzaki Teru is a bit strange, even though she is Enoshima Junko, who is known as the "Ultimate Gal".
For some reason, she did not act in a manner befitting her status; she was much more composed than I had imagined.
This identity was only slightly revealed during the initial confrontation with Monokuma.
However, it's also possible that because Monokuma had brought her to the brink of death, she became much more restrained. But...
For now, we should put aside these useless thoughts and explore them later. Right now, the Party's priority is to resolve this case.
However, judging from Monokuma's expression, he didn't seem to be in a hurry, as if he was admiring something.
Kanzaki Teru felt somewhat uncomfortable being looked down upon, but ultimately it was still unclear whether the other party was a living being.
Therefore, Kanzaki Teru's feeling of discomfort was not actually very obvious.
"It's a very simple principle. If the information provided in the student handbook is correct, then Sayaka Madoka saw the murderer around midnight."
During this time period, people are usually already asleep.
Although she may have a habit of going to bed early, she is, after all, an idol.
A regular schedule is essential, so I deduce that she deliberately changed into her school uniform because she was waiting for someone or to meet someone.
Furthermore, if it were meeting a female friend, she would most likely wear pajamas and wouldn't be so deliberate in doing so.
"I want to refute that point. Although we are both women, we have actually known each other for less than a week."
So we're not exactly close, and I generally wouldn't wear my pajamas to meet other people.
After listening to Kyoko Kirigiri's supplement, Teru Kanzaki nodded thoughtfully.
"That's true, so it seems that women cannot be ruled out either."
Are you doubting us?
Hearing Kanzaki Teru say that, Asahina Aoi questioned him somewhat angrily.
Kanzaki Teru could understand her feelings, but at this point, only rationality could solve the problem.
"No, I'm just suspicious of you all, not just women, but everyone."
Deliberately replying in a cold tone, Kanzaki Teru stared at everyone, his eyes even revealing a hint of murderous intent.
"Let's put aside the suspicions about you for now and get back to the case."
After all, each room has a lock, and there is a rule in the student handbook that prohibits damaging the dormitory locks.
However, there was no sign that the lock on the door had been broken.
Therefore, this indicates that the culprit was invited into the room by Sayaka Waltz, and it also suggests that the two had a relatively good relationship.
"...and Sayaka Madoka is quite close to..."
After listening to Kanzaki Teru's analysis, everyone's attention shifted to one person.
"No...it's not my fault...!"
Noticing everyone's gaze, Asahina Aoi quickly denied it.
“We believe that Nique wouldn’t do such a thing.”
At this moment, Oogami Sakura also spoke up for Asahina Aoi, but these people certainly wouldn't believe her so easily.
(Qian Dezhao) "Don't rush, everyone, I haven't finished speaking yet. Although I said that we might have a better relationship."
However, this doesn't mean it's the only possibility; after all, it's also possible that Sayaka Waltz actively invited the prisoner.
"You must have a really good relationship to do something like that!"
"No, I'm referring to another possibility. If that's the case, then it's very likely that they're not on good terms."
"Another possibility?"
Hearing Kanzaki Teru's deliberately mysterious words, everyone's attention was once again drawn to him.
"What if Sayaka Waltz's original intention was to kill someone and then frame someone else?"
Chapter 339: Mutual Destruction
"How is this possible! Xiangxiang would never do such a thing!"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru say this, Asahina Aoi, who had just been doubted, was the first to jump out and refute it.
This also shows that the two have a really good relationship, but it's a pity that they said such things under such circumstances.
While it cleared Sayaka Waltz of suspicion, it couldn't clear her of suspicion about herself.
"But I found this thing in her dormitory."
Reaching into his pocket, Kanzaki Teru pulled out something that surprised everyone present.
"kitchen knife?!"
"That's right, and this thing was placed under the table in a rather hidden place."
"It's possible that the murderer brought it there!"
"Are you saying the person who took the kitchen knife is the murderer? Did anyone see anyone take the kitchen knife?"
At this moment, Yasuhiro Hagakure raised his hand; this person looked extremely unreliable.
However, after observing Kanzaki Hikari 817, it was found that this person was indeed somewhat unreliable.
After all, he is known as the "Ultimate Fortune Teller," but in reality, the probability of him succeeding in his divinations is only one-third.
Although the number is very subtle, he himself said, "If you can achieve 100% accuracy, then it's not divination but language."
It must be said that this statement is so difficult to refute that there is absolutely no point in arguing against it.
"I went into the kitchen last night when I couldn't sleep, originally wanting to find something to eat."
Although I didn't notice at the time, that's probably when they took the kitchen knife away.
"What evidence do you have to prove that what you're saying is true? Maybe you're the one who took the kitchen knife?"
Upon hearing his statement, Celestia spoke the absolutely correct truth.
After all, this could become a clue to the truth, or it could become the reason why he gets himself into trouble.
"Why would I lie to you? Besides, if I wanted to hide something, there would be no need for me to say something that would make you suspect me!"
"Although there is no evidence to prove that what Hagakure Yasuhiro said is correct, my investigation found that the amount of milk in the refrigerator in the kitchen has indeed decreased."
Since new materials are replenished every day, if the milk hasn't been replenished to its full potential, it's possible that this is something that could become a clue.
And most importantly, I also found this thing.
As Kirigiri Kyoko recalled the clues she had gathered, she made deductions based on them.
