"Yeah! YEAH! Go on, get outta here! Shoo! Shoo!" Monokuma shouted at them as they left
********************************
They made it back to the dorm's hallway
"So. Goodbye." Kyoko said
"H-Hold on!" Makoto blurted "Listen, what was all that about just now?"
"...Don't worry about it. Well then...goodnight."
"S-Sure..."
As they turned to leave, Quill whispered to him as he passed "Left pocket."
"What...?"
Neither of them answered as they returned to their respective dorms
As Makoto returned to his own dorm he thought to look in his left pocket. In said pocket he found a small, folded piece of paper [Don't show the cameras]. Hiding in his doorway he unfolded the paper
[Mukuro Ikusaba. The seventeenth student, lying hidden somewhere in this school. The one they call the Ultimate Despair. Watch out for her.]

Day 20
The remaining 7 gathered in the dining hall
"So, let's begin the usual post-trial investigation." Byakuya started
"Hey, you didn't make small talk or anything! We never just get straight to the point like that!" Hiro complained
"If you want to keep up with me, you must refrain from pointless small talk."
"Jeez, how high is that horse of yours?" Hina jabbed
"He just acts like that to hide his own insecurities." Hiro added "That's what I like to think, anyway..."
"Regardless, if you want to defeat the mastermind, you need to follow my lead." Byakuya said "They creep around the school like a mouse, but the mastermind's pride is as bloated as a cow's udder."
"I'm sorry, who's lead?" Quill glared at him
Byakuya slightly stepped back, but still tried to stand his ground "..My lead-"
"For what? So we can all die, failing to solve something because you can't put it on a bar graph?" he smirked, enjoying torturing Byakuya "So we can deface an entire scene to test something everyone already knew the answer to while being a dick about the entire thing? So you can sit on your ass and do nothing but bark orders and still manage to- Ack!"
He was swiftly shut up by Kyoko flicking his forehead "That's enough"
"...oww..."
"Ya know" Hina smiled "you two have been acting pretty differently, especially with each other! What's goin' on with that?"
"What are you talking about?"
"I mean, you two are almost always together and you even listened to her! If anyone else tried to tell you what to do you'd give em that death stare"
"I believe this is the small talk Byakuya warned us against." Kyoko interrupted
"And yet...I allowed it to happen. But it is now finished. We're going to begin our search. Stop running your mouths and start moving your legs."
