Closing Argument

Now, it's time to tell the story of what happened, comic style. Above, you can check out the complete closing argument with every panel in the correct spot. If you are a bit confused about what happened, you can check out the summary below as well.

To start off, Hajime went to the hospital with Mikan in the morning. In the lobby, Hajime saw surveillance footage of someone with a bag over their head approaching a noose. While it was thought that the footage came from the music venue, it was in a different place.

The killer had stolen the camera from the music venue and filmed in the hospital conference room. The footage was fake, and the crime had already occurred. The person with the bag on their head in the video was the killer.

Hajime got to the music venue and saw the body. In a panic, he ran to get the others. The killer counted on this and quickly unveiled the second body of Hiyoko that they covered with wallpaper. Then they destroyed the surveillance camera that was used.

They mixed the destroyed camera with the destroyed monitor at the crime scene. Next, they broke a pair of drumsticks and placed them near the venue entrance. This was to simulate the room being locked from the inside with the drumsticks. However, what was really holding the door shut was the glue that the killer used.

Next, the killer met up with Hajime, Fuyuhiko, and Chiaki. They pretended to be surprised by everything, but it was all according to plan.
