Her stomach still quivering and wobbling dangerously with every step she took, Riku took her place at her podium. The image of the crime scene was still burned deeply into her mind, and the investigation had hardly helped her take her mind off it. She shot a worried glance in the direction of Haru and Sora, but otherwise remained silent – now was neither the time nor place to get caught up in discussions about past trials.
(Not that that was stopping a good majority of other students from voicing their grudges).
“All I found that hasn’t been brought up was a box of granola bars which looked like they’d been touched recently… there was only one of ‘em left. But unless the ghost doll was feelin’ a bit peckish and decided to have a midnight snack, I’ve got no idea how they’d tie in to the murder.

Since she’s a doll – or, uh, a spirit, or whatever – and not a real student, I kinda doubt that he’d let that slide. Not to mention the fact that it’d be mighty tough to actually execute somethin’ without a body.”
“Himeno-san, if yer up to answerin’ any questions, maybe it’d help to know a little more about what Kana-san is. Like where she came from or somethin’, or what she wants. J-just in case, y’know? I mean, I’m ain’t scared of no ghosts! My grandpa was a spirit medium, so…”
