Umineko no Naku Koro Ni - Died

[Segaco]

Wuxya walks over to the kitchen's window and examines it. During her examination, she finds that the window's lock is set.
Other than that, there's not much else to be gained on the window, so she decides to leave it alone.

[Segaco]

Orange sees Wuxya finish her search, and as he approaches her to ask what she thinks, he remembers he had forgotten to interrogate Tech and Jezz, who are together in the hallway.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

[Segaco]

[Segaco]

JunkoChan will be controlling Wuxya until LadyLambdadelta comes back. Wuxya is the detective of this game.

------

After a while, having finished checking everything she wanted, Wuxya remembers that they had left Tech and Jezz outside the dining hall. Maybe it would be a good idea to interrogate them.

[JunkoChan]

Hello! gonna read during the afternoon what's been happening and then start posting tonight hopefully

[JunkoChan]

(that was a long read)

I sigh briefly as I aproach Tech and Jezz with Orange following me, he told me that he wanted to interrogate them, little did he know that I was already thinking about it.

may i know my character for when the others return? ty.

[Segaco]

(there's a guy named Thorus, you'll be him when lamb comes back)

Wuxya and Orange leave the kitchen and are now in the dining hall. Ryax is next to Sarah, apparently trying to wake her up.
He stops once he sees the two approach him.
"Oh, hello" he says, "Tech entered a bit ago and told me to tell you Jezz had seen Flaming leave the servant's room before she went to sleep. He also said he was going to be busy doing something. I wonder what that was."

[Segaco]

Tech carries Jezz to his room. She had seen something horrible and had cried herself to sleep.
He sighs as he puts her on his bed. He'll stay with her for a bit.
Tech sits on the bed and looks out the window. He then hears the room's door be opened.
He turns around, and sees a masked person with a cape standing right in front of him.
"...Ah-"
Tech tries to say something, but a knife appears out of nowhere from the wizard's cape and flies straight to Tech's neck.
He doesn't know what's happening, but he takes Jezz in his arms and runs to the door, but collapses on the hallway soon afterwards, the knife still stuck where it hit him.
Jezz wakes up after hitting the floor, so the wizard removes the knife from Tech's neck and slits Jezz's neck with it. It doesn't take long for her to bleed out.
Having killed the two, the masked person grins and claps, making two people with goat faces appear.
"Hey, you two, take Tech's body to Jezz's room and Jezz's to Tech's bed right here, I'll go get the keys"
The two goat people nod and do what they were ordered to do, and while they do that, the wizard goes to the servant's room and gets the keys to Jezz's and Tech's rooms.
"This will be fun~"
With a snap of his fingers, Jezz's key is teleported to Tech's room and Tech's key to Jezz's.
When he's done, the goats enter the servant's room and tell the wizard that they were done with the corpses.
"Good, thank you for your help. You can go now." Segaco waves his hands and both goats vanish.
To finish with the illusion, the wizard goes to the doors of both rooms and locks them from the inside with his magic, and finally drops the master key he had stolen from a random servant in front of Tech's door.
"This will do..."
As he nods to himself, he hears the dining hall's door be opened in the distance, so he quickly vanishes.

[Segaco]

The two thank Ryax and open the exit's door, and outside they find... nothing, really. Though, Wuxya is able to see something red on the floor at the end of the hallway.
Tech and Jezz are nowhere to be seen.

[JunkoChan]

I felt cold for a moment when I saw it, part of me already knew what it was, and part of me wiished I was wrong, I approach to investigate the red thing.

[Segaco]

Wuxya and Orange walk to the end of the hallway, forgetting to close the Dining hall's door. At the end, right in front of Tech's door, they find a pool of blood. In its center lies a key with a label that reads "master key".

[JunkoChan]

Indeed, it was blood, I opened the door without hesitation while I told Orange to go look for the rest.

[Segaco]

Wuxya commands Orange to call for the rest and attempts to open Tech's door. It's locked, however.
"A-Alright." Saying that with a shaky voice, Orange heads to the kitchen.
Wuxya takes the master key in the pool of blood and uses it to unlock the door and enter the room, and inside, she sees Jezz on the bed. There's also a key in the center of the room.
She walks over to the key and picks it up, reading the label afterwards: "Jezz's Room"

[JunkoChan]

I controled my urge to go check Tech's room because part of me already knew what I'd propably find, I approach to examine the body, and everything close to it after that, I rush to Tech's room

[Segaco]

(made a small mistake with the label of the key oops)

Wuxya walks towards the bed and examines Jezz. Her throat was slit. She quickly confirms her death, and as she sighs, Ryax enters the room.
"Hey, Orange called me-" he notices something's wrong and walks up to the bed, and when he sees the blood coming out of Jezz's neck wound, he's left speechless.
Wuxya decides to leave the body and checks the two windows in the room, but the lock of both is set. Seeing that there is nothing else to be gained here, she leaves the room and heads for Jezz's door, Ryax following behind her. That's when she notices there's a trail of blood going from the pool of blood from before to Jezz's room. She attempts to open Jezz's door, but it is locked, so she unlocks it with* the key she found and enters the room along with Ryax.
Inside, in the center of the room, the two find Tech in a pool of blood, lying face up and with a knife in his hand. From the door, she's able to see his neck was slit, just like Jezz's.

[JunkoChan]

With you, I may look to the past
And try and learn your secrets to tell the future,
Of myself and of my own.

The one who obtains the key must journey to the heavens in accordance with these rules
At the first twilight, you shall lift up as sacrifice the six chosen by the key.

At the second twilight, those who remain shall tear apart the two who are close.

At the third twilight, that poor person with fire in love will be.
At the fourth twilight, gouge the neck and kill.
At the fifth twilight, gouge the chest and kill.
At the sixth twilight, gouge the arm and kill.
At the seventh twilight, disappear the two from existence.
At the eighth twilight, the fool because of their mistake will pay.
At the ninth twilight, the wizard shall be revived and none shall be left alive.
At the tenth twilight, the journey shall end and you should reach the village of god.

The wizard will praise the wise, and should bestow four treasures.
One shall be, all the gold from the contract.
One shall be, the resurrection of the souls of all the dead.
One shall be, even the resurrection of the lost love.
One shall be, to put the wizard to sleep for all time.

These words were repeating again and again in my head while I observed the room and took the knife to examine it, I also look around to see if I can find another envelope or key.

So apparently these twilights are not separated by days, they probably reprsent hours, so we gotta work fast, this also means that the next victim (oh god I'm already thinking that there'll be more of these), is going to be killed alone, our next step should be to gather everyone in one place to be safe.

[Segaco]

Wuxya and Ryax walk to Tech. She confirms his death and examines the knife in his hand. It looks like a kitchen knife, and it's pretty bloody.
While she searches his pockets, Flaming, Luka and Zeus dash into the room.
"W-What's happening?! We found Jezz dead in the other room!" yells Flaming. He looks at Wuxya and then at the corpse in the center.
As the three servants stare at Tech's body in shock, Wuxya checks the windows, and after finding both locked, she finds a key in the corner of the room.
Wuxya checks the label, and it reads: "Tech's room"

Gameboard Phase end

[Segaco]

Meta Phase 2 start!

A chain of locked rooms, clearly made with magic.
This meta phase will last two days because of christamsu.
Merry christmas to you three~

[JunkoChan]

The murder weapon is the same one used for the other 6 bodies
The doors for each room are not the only way to enter inside them

Repeat this in red: The bodies were moved by the same person
The victims died in the room they were found dead

Repeat this in red: The bodies were moved by the same person

The weapon used to murder both Jezz and Tech was not the one used to murder the six dead people in the dining hall.
The only ways to enter both rooms are through the door or by using the windows.
The bodies were moved by the same person
