"Anyways, I found it during my investigation of the Lime House." I said. "I think Yoruko threw it all over Kokoro to frame her for the murder of Emma!"
"That would explain why two hours ago, a splash of... something hit me," Kokoro realized. "It was fake blood!"
"N... N-No... I... I...!" Yoruko began to hyperventilate in a vain attempt to stop crying.
I have to get her to explain herself, somehow. I have to get her to calm down enough for an actual argument...
"I'm not hiding anything!" Yoruko insisted. "I'm not hiding anything!"
ARGUMENT ARMAMENT, START!
VS Yoruko Kabuya
The courtroom vanished, and I faced off personally against Yoruko, her appearance having changed drastically from the one I was used to seeing from her. Her hair was now in twintails, now having been partially dyed light green. She was wearing a cute, frilly light yellow and white polka-dot dress, with a red ribbon tied around its collar. She was wearing black knee boots with light green accents. She had slight make up on her face. She also wore black opera gloves. She was surrounded by spiders and red gems.
You are all just cruel people!
You are falsely accusing me...
You all are big liars!
You are all full of nonsense!
Who do you think you are!?
I'm not the killer!
You are all full of nonsense!
Shut up already!
Please! Listen to me! Mario! Save me!
Kokoro's the culprit!
True Mimi, Come Forth!
You're gonna to have to pay 1000 rubees for this, Nikei! Show some damn evidence!
Lyin', two-faced BASTARD!
THIS IS UNFORGIVABLE!
If I'm the killer, then how could I have framed Kokoro for commiting the murder!?
KOKORO COVERED IN FAKE BLOOD
"IT'S THE END FOR YOU!"
With a startled shriek, Yoruko was now on the ground, shivering in her tattered dress and her hair thrown into disarray. One could even hardly call what was now on her face proper makeup, as the efforts resembled more of that of a clownish mess. Everywhere else had bruises and similar injuries, now cut and exposed just like her formerly neverending charade of deceit.
BREAK!
Just like that, I figured it out. The only way Yoruko would have been able to frame Kokoro for the murder of Emma. It'd explain why the cosplayer was splattered in the stuff. It was the final piece.
"Poor Kokoro ended up getting fake blood thrown on her because of... you." I pointed at Yoruko.
"Yoruko... really...? Y-You did it...?" Sora mouthed.
