THIRD INVESTIGATION

[whimsicalism]

There was a party on the night of the first murder, wasn't there? That time it had been your hosts hosting it even if they didn't make an appearance. Now, at least the Queen had been able to talk with many of you in public. Surely this sign of goodwill as Halloween quickly approaches will last throughout the weekend.

Neither the threat of memories or the promise of a wish could shake such new goodwill, could it?

[He had woken up early. It wasn't long before he was toting his F.R.A.P.P.E. around and brushing the walls.

This was the day people would die...

No matter how cheery we were yesterday.

He made his way to the third floor. The first place he looked was the Pit. Was there anything off there?]

[whimsicalism]

[Uh. Someone is having a real bad day in there, Seven.]

[seventhlittlemonster]

[...Already, huh? He... kept his distance. We wanted to dive in and pull them out. Who was it?]

[whimsicalism]

[Well, good thing you didn't dive in! Because the pit is full of knives. Even in the pirate area's poor light today you can see that much.

And in this death pit?

Neku is dead.]

Ne... ku... NEKU!!!

[whimsicalism]

[He doesn't answer, thankfully. But there is some blood leading into Lion Cove from here.]

[seventhlittlemonster]

[Oh dear, oh dear... He made a break for it. This has to be some kind of joke...]

[whimsicalism]

[Sadly, from the shore you can't see anything, Seven. But someone in the rowboat definitely could.]

[Mizuki surfaces!! Lena is tucked under one arm as she begins to pull herself back to shore with the other arm.]

Seven!! Seven, is Neku alright?? Lena... Lena was underwater for a long time!!

[seventhlittlemonster]

He's... he's... [He sniffled and huffed. That's all one needs to hear...]
