Danganronpa - Second Chance (V)

Chapter 4 - Investigation

Despite it only being a few days, someone already committed murder. It just so happened that the victim was one of the last extremely positive survivors

A body has been discovered! Everyone get your asses to the catwalk pronto!

Everyone soon flooded in, with Taka in his own body leading them. He of course, was the first to speak up

"T-Tenko!?"

Rantaro looked somewhat pleased with himself

"Indeed. Seems like it worked after all"

Taka then got up in his face

"What did you do!?"

"I have no idea what you are talking about"

Before they could continue arguing, Monokuma appeared before them

"Would you look at that! Seems like all the members of your group that has any fighting experience has..................disappeared......."

Amongst the confusion, Monokuma handed over the next Monokuma File to the smaller group

Victim: Tenko Chabashira

Cause of Death: Strangulation

Time of Death: 2:30 PM

Other Information: No sign of struggle

Investigation start

Monokuma File 5 has been added to truth bullets

Once everyone reviewed the file, they continued their routine of splitting up into two groups. Since Chihiro, Taka, Nagito, and Tenko were already in the Arcade, and she was alive at the time, Chihiro, Taka, Ryoma, and Ibuki stayed in the catwalk while Hiyoko, Sayaka, and Nagito went to the exercise room. However, Rantaro ignored the investigation and went on his own.

Chihiro remained standing there, looking at the body of his former friend

"She was the last one......................................the last one in the group that I was originally in..................who would work out together"

Taka took notice of his words

"Oh.............she really was......................Sakura.............Nekomaru.............now Tenko"

"Of all the three....................................they all inspired me.......why did it have to be them............they had so many more to inspire...........why did it have to be me who lived out of the four........"

"Chihiro, don't say that.......if Tenko were here right now..........she would want you to bring her killer to justice"

"Yeah.....you're right..........She would....I'll do it for the three of them!"

Ibuki spoke up

"Isn't the killer obvious? Rantaro led Chihiro, Sayaka, and Ibuki to the catwalk, clearly knowing Tenko was here"

"Good observation, but we have to be 100% sure.......there could be some evidence that points to some other direction"

Looking around, Chihiro found in the back, a crane that is used to lower down things at the end of the catwalk, a rope hanging above Tenko's body is connected to it

Stage Crane has been added to truth bullets

Continuing to observe, Chihiro noticed Ryoma looking at a closet, the handle knocked loose out of it's place
