Yuuki shrugged their shoulders. If they jumped to conclusions all the time, theyâd hurt their legs. Misunderstandings here⊠would be pretty bad. Especially for the more impulsive of their classmates.Â
âIf it was real blood, and I accidentally walked in on someone doing something shady, Iâd probably be dead by now.â To shut them up, of course.Â
Ew. Plap. They cringed as well, definitely not enjoying that sound. âGross.â Jun had a point though; this room definitely did seem a bit⊠grim. It made them think this was⊠intentional. Like they knew this whole place was going to become a murder haven and wanted to prepare accordingly.Â
âHonestly, itâs hard for me to get the point to this whole place. It seems like it was built with that Daichi-murder-botâs stupid fucking game in mind. Giving everyone the tools they need to fuck each other up, and shit.â They shook their head. âWonder who set it up.â
Why were they here? Good question. They didnât have much of a reason, admittedly.Â
âIâm just wandering. Seeing everything new. Know where I live, or whatever. This like any recording studio youâve been in?â After the trial, they finally took the time to try and attach names to everyoneâs faces, and they⊠thought they knew who everyone was now. âThey call âem talent labs, but they donât really match up to any of our talents. Whoâs it for, then?â A mysterious second group of students? What nonsense.Â
âHa, yeah, I canât imagine that kind of thing going well even outside of this place. But yeah... I dunno. Even if someone twisted this into a murder-encouraged setup, I still want to believe this is actually a Neo Hopeâs Peak building, you know. Cause then it means I didnât waste my time accepting that invite trying to make something of myself.âÂ
There was a scowl to punctuate his words, though at least since Jun directed it at the pile of blood packets rather than Yuuki, it was clearly not directed at them.Â
But he glanced around the macabre looking recording studio once more, focusing specifically on some of the more grotesque looking props on offer to consider Yuukiâs questions.Â
âKinda is, kinda isnât. Iâve only just started getting in proper recording studios myself, so maybe Iâm missing something. But the equipment checks out. The costumes and stuff... yeah, I think this is for a very specific genre weâre missing out on here if itâs not just a murder game ploy. Maybe down to whoever has the funds or whatever to set up a murder house that just... sucks all the murder evidence away somewhere.âÂ
âThe entrance to this section mentions something about these being for ânoteworthy studentsâ-â Air quotes there. âOr something, right. Maybe theyâre just showing off old students or something. Kinda sucks that they wouldnât give their new students like me and you their own talent labs, but I guess itâs right up their museum alley. Who puts a school in a museum anyway?â
