Perhaps following in her room mate's footsteps, Minami Tomoko-san took the life of Kakemono Otoko-san. She planned it out. Lured him out there, taking advantage of his rather empty head and full heart and used the stairs to break his neck. Minami Tomoko-san gave her reasons... apparently to save us from our secrets being unveiled, to be remembered as strong and... because she's mad. She choose to kill him because she knew she would be forgiven? A cowardly reason at best... still, there is rarely a good reason for murder. It barely bears thinking about.

In all honesty she was one of my initial suspects. Her profile is that of a lot of killers - a sweet look to hide a ruthless edge. I imagine a lot of celebrities have that in them. Hitoya Hotaru-san was my other suspect but that cleared quickly. Hopefully she doesn't take my accusation personally. Much as I would've liked to have called this a clean cut and dry case however... it was not. Mostly thanks to the handiwork of Mikata Setsuna-san...

First on the scene apparently. They tampered with evidence and withheld information. To say I'm disappointed in them is an understatement and I fully intend to speak with them in more detail later. This cannot be allowed to happen again. None of us were fooled into thinking it was Tsuji Arashi-san as planned but... that doesn't change a thing. It was wrong, immoral, pointless and only served to draw things out and complicate what could've been a very simple case. Hanae Eisuke-san was again quite helpful. Tachibana Kiyomitsu-san on the other hand... was difficult the entire time. She seems to be ignoring me. If she wants to be petulant, let her be. It's no skin off my nose, in all honesty.

With this, the secrets have stopped. I had little to reveal so it's of no real consequence to me but... I suppose it is good for the others.

So far the pattern still corresponds to the original incident. Does this mean the next motive will tap into our greed or is the third time, perhaps, a charm and we're in store for something else? With these recent deaths... more of the archive will undoubtedly by revealed to us. Perhaps I can find something of use.

I've been for probably about three days now but I can't rest yet. There's still too much to do.

Four down, fifteen remaining:

Kakemono Otoko and Minami Tomoko are no more

Signed,

Monobear isn't letting up.

His next motive involves an invasion of privacy and so far most of us have had secrets revealed. In fact, only a handful of us haven't - Mitsuki Tsunami-san and Yasu-san to name a couple. Not that I wish their dark secrets to be revealed. More just a note. It pays to be observant after all.

As for me... 'that' came up.

The other students haven't talked much of it. I'm unsure whether that's because it's irrelevant to them, a macabre subject or simply if they'd become wary of me due to my father's actions. People do often share things in common with their parents after all... I am not my father though. I never will be. I told Tsuji Arashi-san about what happened. I'm not quite sure why I did. I guess it simply seemed like the right thing to do at the time. He understood though, it seems. We're... allies. We shall do the right thing. I'm hopeful this works to my benefit. I'm not used to putting faith in others.

There have been... complications. Again.

Yes, Hanae Eisuke-san decided to lose himself again. I wasn't there for the conflict start but the summary appears to be Minami Tomoko-san opened her mouth and spouted negativity once more (as referenced by an earlier situation with her and Hitoya Hotaru-san) and Hanae Eisuke-san, in his infinite wisdom, went on a punching spree again. This would explain the bruise on my face and cut mouth. Worse than last time, actually. It was a hook I wasn't expecting. Tch. I believe others wounded this time were Hamasaki Nanave-san, Shinohara Akihiko-san and Minami Tomoko-san herself.

On that note... Hamasaki Nanave-san, he's... interesting. A little quiet but I don't dislike his presence. Perhaps he may be useful in keeping the peace about here.

That isn't the only complication, however. Tachibana Kiyomitsu-san - or -Tachibana Koyomi-san as is her real name... she's continuing to be problematic in all honesty. She wants to outlive everyone - she desires 'victory'... I'm quite sure she'll do anything she can to achieve that. I fully intend to stand in her way at every point should she try anything that jeopardizes our safety. She knows that well at this point.

This is somewhat of a side note but I don't quite know what to make of Narita Akira-kaichou. I believe she's having a hard time and I... probably can't help. I told her myself I'm not that nice - I'm hardly a comforter. Even when Minami Tomoko-san was in tears over her lack of friends I regarded her coldly - and factually. That's just how it is. Hopefully she will be fine, however. I am glad she took my advice and stuck away from the fight though. I recently made her cry... that was... an experience. I'm not good with that either. She claims they were good tears however and told me she trusted me. She and Shinohara Akihiko-san both have a lot of faith in me... hm... I won't let them down, then. I can't.

Nothing has happened yet but it may yet soon. I will keep vigilant and do what I can to prevent further casualties.
