"Eww... how could anyone do that shit?!" Syobai shivered.

"What the fuck?! Holy shit!" Sora loudly gagged. "That's fucking disgusting!"

"That's a pleasant mental image..." Iroha sighed.

NON-STOP DEBATE, START!

Hibiki: So, the culprit was likely a man, then?

Kokoro: Possibly... but not necessarily. That's just one piece of evidence towards that conclusion.

Ooh... no it isn't...

Nikei: NO, THAT'S WRONG!

BREAK!

"The culprit isn't a man." I spoke. "There was a pair of scissors at the scene of the crime!"

"Maybe the culprit used that to cut off the jacket." Mikado said.

"This still doesn't prove who did it!" Sora yelled in frustration.

"We've gone over every possibility. How do we still not know who it is?" Hibiki was beginning to get frustrated too.

"Maybe it was a murder-suicide?" Syobai said.

"During our investigation, me and Mikado found that Kanade's bed was unmade. This leaves only one theory." Teruya said.

"Kanade got out of it in the middle of the night, expected to come back... after murdering Shinji. But she was killed by her target! And then he accidentally killed himself!" Setsuka added.

"No, no, no! Don't you split again!" Teruya cried.

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!

"Did you just say the s-word!?" Monocrow gasped.

"NO! NO ONE SAID ANYTHING!" Teruya screamed.

"But I think you diii-iiid!" The bird sang, turning the infamous key in his throne. "Jabberwock island is proud to present...its very own morphenomenal trial grounds!"

"No, no, no, no, no!" Teruya gripped his podium for dear life, while Hibiki screamed.

The podiums shot up into the air.

Split Onipon!

This Case was a Double Murder: Nikei, Kokoro, Hibiki, Sora, Mikado

This Case was a Murder-Suicide: Syobai, Teruya, Setsuka, Iroha

What was this Case?

DEBATE SCRUM, START!

Teruya: Don't listen to them! This case was clearly a murder-suicide!

Kokoro!

Kokoro: It was obviously a double crime! Kanade probably only wanted Shinji's help!

Syobai: To kill him!?

Hibiki!

Hibiki: We never said that!

Iroha: Then why!? WHY?!

Mikado!

Mikado: I don't get it! You didn't need to drag us all into your problems!

Setsuka: I don't get it! Where's your proof that it was a double crime?!

My turn!

Nikei: You're obviously using her bed as a red herring...
