"But it's not three holes - like with the fork... it's... just one. Amai works with candy right? I don't think..." Alice shook her head.
"It doesn't add up..."

Tomoko remained silent for a moment, before he spoke up. "Perhaps Amai?" he suggested. "That would explain the wounds, as they are similar to the ones that... Juliet left." "First of all, he's scrawny; plus if it was a fork then there would be multiple holes in Angel. Only one, so a needle."

They aren't supposed to say the n word here.

Desperate. Desperate attempts to save people you care about from death. If any of her friends had been put on the spot, she knew she would do the same. But the evidence all seemed to be pointing to... well, needles. But no one in particular. While the murder had a lot of clues there didn't seem to be anything really decisive as to who exactly would or could have done it. Alice could tell that Tomoko was - and when she thought about it this way, she winced - trying to find another person whose life he didn't value as much, or someone he wouldn't miss as much (or even, hadn't met) to blame. She didn't blame him for doing so... but whomever really did this murder, even if it was something like the murderer walking in and witnessing Darren attacking Angel, and then maybe defending themselves against Darren whom they in turn killed... it was still murder.
"Alright. Hold on a sec," Alice said, projecting her voice and standing up behind her podium and waiting for everyone to hush to silence.
"I know that at this point we're all familiar with how this goes. Someone gets murdered, and we have to figure out who did it so that we all don't die." She paused for a brief moment, collecting her thoughts and preparing herself to get back on topic.
"Tomoko. I know that you hearing some of your friends names drawn out makes you uncomfortable, afraid, and -terrified, even, of what could happen. But as I see it, we're going to be here until we know for sure who did this. At least, I will. And I'm sure that if your friends, whom I know you love and care about, are innocent? We don't have anything to worry about. I will personally hear everyone out. As they say in the courts - no one is guilty until proven guilty.
"And I know that this isn't as formal per say as a public or televised court hearing that you might see in federal or state courts, but we should still, so you say, go by the book on this one.
"With that being said, I want to lay out everything that's been decided so far. We know that Darren was the initial attacker. He must have attacked Angel with the knife and wounded Angel. It was then that he must've fled the scene, I guess, assuming that Angel might die from blood loss or something.
"From there we know that someone else -the murderer - would've come in at this time. They might've messed with Angel's wound at this time, possibly trying to either patch it up with the string, or doing something else. I can't tell for sure what the string is about, for all I know it could've happened after Darren's fall (perhaps trying to save him then ending his pain?) but anyways. The murderer was also the one to cause the deep puncture wounds in the top of Angel's head and the few in Darren's.
"I think we can assume that Darren and the murderer got into some sort of fight, one of them bending the railing, and at some point, the murderer must've stabbed Darren in the head, and he tumbled over the railing. He might not have had to bend it to tumble over, you know. He could've just been pushed.
"With all of this information, we can deduce that the murderer would have had to have their weapons - the ones that caused the puncture wounds in both of the victim's heads - on them at the time. It would have to have been something they would carry around with them , so it would presumably have to do with their SHSL.
"So as of now the suspects we have discussed - and I am in no way saying that, in listing them, I believe that they did it. In fact, I really don't want to assume anyone here did it! But we need to find the killer. So I'm going to be as diplomatic about this as possible. I want everyone who's been accused to be able to speak for themselves if they ... can. But anyways. As I was saying.
"It could be Ennosuke - who might have had string and needles, or something like that. She is a doctor after all. It could also be ... Paris I guess. I know we haven't mentioned him yet, but he's also a doctor, albeit for animals. Tomoko mentioned Amai, who... well, I don't really see how he would have sharp objects on him, but for your sake, Tomoko, I'm including him in the list. And we've also mentioned Koto, who works with puppets ... so, string. Maybe needles."
Alice took a deep breath.
"That's all we have for now. I guess I'll leave it open to you guys. Which of the people we've listed would have been able to possibly put up a fight with Darren? Is there anyone we haven't taken into consideration? Does anyone before-mentioned seem more capable than others?"
She wasn't shaking. She didn't have a knot in her throat. She wasn't sweating. Yet she felt so nervous. Butterflies. That's what it was. Strange, she thought, that that of all things is what I'd be experiencing right now.

Tomoko seemed to be weakening slightly with Alice's speech, his confidence practically corroding with every word. His jaw clenched tightly at Ennosuke's name, and his fists curled up when Paris was also mentioned. Did that mean he had to choose between the two of them? Oh god, please no. That was... Unfair. Sick. Why? Why did he have to do that? He was about to open his mouth in protest, mention Amai again, before Alice beat him to the punchline, and said it herself.
His eyes brightened up again, and he gave Ennosuke a slight, weak smile, speaking up. "Wasn't Koto in some kind of relationship with Angel? That would explain why there was some string in the wound, correct? It must be him! He tried stitching Angel up, and either realized that he was too far past saving, or was interrupted by Darren!"
Maybe it didn't have to go down that way then... There were problems in the theory, but if he made it sound convincing enough, he could prove Ennosuke's and Paris's innocence.

"That is a possibility..." Alice sat back down, placing her head in her hand, thinking.
