Exam 3.

[ Once again, the exam begins with the desks arranged in a perfect circle; one desk for each person that's participating in the program. There are nameplates for everyone, and they have been bolted to each of the desks, facing the inside of the circle...

...including the deceased. Their chairs have been placed on top of their desks, signifying that they will not be needed. Above of their desks are holograms of their portraits from their profiles, grayed out and bloodstained.

Today Han is absent-- only Megumi is present at the front of the classroom. ]


Today you are responsible for finding the culprit responsible for the death of Maya Fey, the Apprentice Falsely Accused.

Your exam begins now.

Victim.






Suspects.



[ The physical evidence tray sits in the middle of the circle of desks; you all have the Evidence app on your tablets to access photo evidence. ]

Well... a hand railing.

okay he pulls out his tablet too to point at the maps]

You see that there's just one staircase, in the corner. The elevator is the only other way down - it would have made a dinging noise and been a more enclosed space nobody running would want to go into. Or, well, the balcony, but there's no sign Maya did that. We've had weeks to become familiar with the stairs' location, days under the effect of the motive.

[Poe's been fairly quiet this trial, still reeling from his sense of emotional empathy coming back. Still... he figures it's about time for him to try and contribute again.]

Have.... have we considered that Maya might have been knocked out in the common room... but brought to the kitchen to be killed? In the common room, any one of us could potentially walk at out any moment. The kitchen isn't much better... but it'd be safer to kill her there over the common room.

The bedrooms are soundproof, which explains why none of us noticed this fight in time, but you have a point with one of us coming out... It's true that it's almost too convenient for the chase to stop in the kitchen where there was a sharp weapon that wasn't removed from the kitchen...

At any rate, if the culprit managed to knock her out altogether with the guitar in the common room, having sight to chase her down the stairs isn't a problem at all.

You kids and your kooked up theories.

Sometimes a duck is just a duck, okay?
