Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward

Part 112: [continued]

999 OST: [Trepidation]




What in the world...









Luna was the same.
...
...







By then everyone had arrived, cramming themselves into the small cabin.
Nobody spoke.
Silence filled the room, flowing into my ears and throat like cold, brackish water.








Who... who found them?



My throat felt dry as I spoke.
It was a full minute before someone answered.



Listen in: [English/Japanese]




When K and I ran over, she was just kind of standing there next to the bodies.
It was pretty clear they were both dead...


I think Clover killed them.




You got into a fight with Alice after the AB Game, didn't you?


...
...


It looked like the two of you knew eachother before you ended up here, so maybe you were trying to get her killed.
None of us had any connection to her, which means you're the most likely to have a motive for murder.


...
...


It's easy to see why she would have killed Luna too. She probably caught you offing Alice, so you did her in too, so she wouldn't rat you out.


Stop it, Dio.




What do you mean?


Once someone's dead they can't vote anymore. That means they'll automatically ally.
If your opponent's guaranteed to ally, then that's an easy 3 points.


Who was Luna's opponent?




Then that would mean Dio had a motive as well.


Yup. Alice saw him killing Luna, so he had to shut her up.


Why the hell would I do something like that?!


Pay attention next time. You'd do it to get an advantage in the next round of the AB Game.


What kind of cold-hearted bastard kills a lady for a few points?




I am as well.


What do you mean by her condition?


Her clothes are barely disturbed.


If it weren't for the knife and, ah, blood, she would look as if she was sleeping.


Yeah... you're right...


Well, maybe she was just killed while she was sleeping?


If she wanted to take a nap, why sit on the floor when there's a bed nearby?


That is a little strange.
But a better question is: Would she really be sleeping right now anyway? Hardly seems like a time for a nap.


She was probably put to sleep, then.


What? How?


Oh come on... How did Zero Sr. knock all of us out?


Oh... Yeah... That white gas...


So you're suggesting that Zero Sr. knocked them out with the white gas, then killed them both?




However it happened, one of the people in this room did it.




I forgot about somebody, didn't I?


Are you talking about Quark?


He disappears and then suddenly there's a murder? I donno about you, but that seems preeeeetty suspicious to me.


That's crazy! Quark couldn't have done this!


All right, then why did he disappear?


There... must have been some kind of accident...


Then I might have it backwards.




That would explain his sudden disappearance, right?


Y-You son of a bitch!


Dio! Knock it off!
That's going too far!


Whoa whoa... Calm down there, big guy.
Don't tell me it never crossed your mind. I just said what you were all thinking.


...

...

...
...




All players please enter your votes.
If no vote is recorded before the deadline has passed, any non-voting parties will automatically ally.




Come on, we've got more important things to worry about.


Oh, so you're gonna abstain, huh?
That's some good luck for you, Clover.




If Sigma abstains, then you'll have no one voting against you.


...




This is your chance to escape.


Escape?


That's right. Right now your BP's at 6.


Sigma's saying he won't vote, so if you choose "betray"...


Clover would get 3 points, bringing her to 9.


Whoa, hold on there.
I didn't say anything about not voting.


Oh, so you are going to vote?


...


Well? You are, right?


...




Sigma should have 6 BP, just like Clover.
That means this next round is a one on one fight.
If one of them can trick the other one, they'll have enough BP to get out of here.
Can't wait to see who wins...


...


...


Hah! Oh, this is definitely getting interesting!


...


...




C'mon.
