Orange, being wary, looks at the people around him. No one's acting extremely suspicious. As he watches people's actions, he's able to see Tech attempting to comfort Jezz through the open door. He also gets to see Ryax crouch next to Wuxya, presumably to check on Sarah.
...
"Is she alright?" Ryax puts two of his fingers on Sarah's neck to check her pulse as he talks to Wuxya. "Good, she seems to be okay."
He sighs. "We should take her somewhere else, I don't think she'll like waking up and seeing bodies all around her."
Having said this, Ryax looks at Wuxya, waiting for an answer.
She, however, completely ignores him and stands up.
"Listen to me, everyone" she says "We need to gather all bodies in one place."
Everyone in the room looks at her like she's some sort of crazy old woman.
"...Let's not talk about what to do with the dead people now please." says Ryax as he stands up "And... all bodies are already here..." he points at the table.

I shake my head.

It is important we put them somewhere safe and out of the way until the police arrive.

Everyone in the room wants to argue with Wuxya, firstly because moving corpses would be disrespectful, and secondly because moving bodies would actually make investigating for the police harder. No one does so, however. The way Wuxya words things makes them to actually want to do things they don't think are right.
"Alright, but..." answers the servant Flaming when Wuxya was done talking, "They are kind of already here, in one place, on the table..."

"They're definitely dead.... I'm more concerned about the culprit moving the bodies or disposing of the evidence."

I check the room for all possible entrances/exits?

Looks like we've got the door into the ground floor hallway, the door into the kitchen, and three windows to the outside.

Yeah, I just wanted to double check for.... other things as well. But those things are the reason why I want the bodies moved.

Wuxya looks around the room while talking to her friend Orange. She's looking for all entrances and exits of the dining hall.
The only possible exits and entrances that can be seen in plain sight are the three big windows on the wall, a door that has a sign that reads "Kitchen", and another door which was the one everyone used to enter the room.
She looks around a bit more for a secret passage of some sort, but doesn't manage find any in her search. Wuxya quickly gives up on the idea of a secret passage existing in this room.
...
"Hey, Wuxya, if you'll allow me to speak..." the servant named Zeus calls the detective's attention "What is that in your pocket?"
Wuxya looks at the direction of her right pocket and sees the envelope she had found on Xerxes' corpse sticking out.

After a long wait, Zeus decides to take the envelope out of Wuxya's pocket.
"I'm sorry miss."
He opens the envelope and drops its contents on the table: A key labeled "master key", a key labeled "dining hall", and a key labeled "kitchen" were inside. There was also a note.
Flaming takes the note and reads a few lines before screaming "God heavens!" and reading it out loud.

"Welcome to my new island, everyone. I am now the owner of this island and my name is Segaco. Up until now, I've been watching over this land not being able to do anything, but recently, the old house owner Xerxes decided to get into the occult, and managed to summon me through the use of spells, though he just thought the spell hadn't worked because I turned invisible right after being summoned.

Well, during today, I’ll do my best to steal back what has been stolen. Now, I must explain one part of the contract Xerxes made when summoning me. I, Segaco, will be given all of the gold bars Xerxes has stolen from other people, but there's an extra condition.

As for that condition, he will give me all the gold by the end of the contract. And as an interest, I can accept everything of anyone in this mansion... Including lives. Upon hearing this, everyone will probably lament as I am being too merciless.

However, I am a nice wizard, and in order to give a chance to leave the wealth and fortune untouched, added a special clause. Only when that clause is satisfied, I’ll eternally lose my right to collect the gold and the... interest.

As said before, when the contract ends, I will have the right to collect the gold and the interest. However, if a person happens to find the hidden gold of the contract, Segaco must eternally and completely abdicate of this right …From now on, the collect of the interest will be performed but, if whoever one person among everyone can satisfy the special clause,

Everything will be returned including the part already collected.

Furthermore, as an outset of the collect, I already have received in my custody the face of these six people that indicates there's no way out now.

About the hiding place of the gold, I have already announced it behind this letter. The conditions are equal to all the people who can read it. If the gold is disclosed, I will return everything, including all lives. With that, please, enjoy to the fullest your battle of wits with me.

I’m praying from the bottom of my heart that tonight turns out to be an intellectual and yet elegant night.

――Segaco the Wizard"


Flaming finishes reading and flips the note to see if what it said was true, and yes it was.
Once reading a few more lines of what the new text said, he reads it out loud:

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.


After reading, Flaming puts the letter back in the table.
"...What did I just read?"

So pretty much no one's got an alibi, so the main question is how was the locked room murder committed.
There are more than two keys that can open the dining hall's door
(since we've got two in the envelope)
The suspect hid in the dining hall or kitchen after committing the murders, and sneakily rejoined the group when the bodies were discovered
The suspect left through a window after committing the murders
The suspect left through the kitchen after committing the murders
The suspect was able to kill while not being in the dining hall or kitchen
The suspect is Luka, who lied about the door being locked


That should be a good enough start for now~

Every servant has a master key, remember that.
There wasn't and isn't anyone hiding in the Dining Hall.
No one has left though a window.
Every victim died at point blank range with the culprit being in the same room.

And of course,
the door was locked when Luka arrived to the Dining Hall in the morning.

I'll leave the others there for now.

The culprit is a servant, who obligingly locked the door behind them.
There are more than five master keys in total, and the one in the envelope did not belong to any of the servants.
Fracie's master key was taken and used to lock the door.

The door was not locked with a master key.
Only five master keys exist.
The key which was found inside the envelope belonged to Fracie.

^ If the detective isn't able to do that, consider me to invoke my power to ask you to repeat that.

In the meantime,
The door was locked from the inside with the dining hall key, which was then placed in the envelope. The culprit then hid in the kitchen for the bodies to be discovered and stealthily rejoined the group at that time.

And while we're at it,
It is impossible to solve the riddle in the envelope with the clues currently presented.

From the moment Luka arrived the Dining Hall to when the envelope was opened, the kitchen door remained closed.
The riddle is, in fact, solvable. Sadly, it will not stop the killings. Solving it and sending the answer to me will give you a free useful red, which you may share with the others if you wish.

-In the Meta Phase, once per turn, Helper can
force
the GM to repeat a statement in Red, if the GM is unable to due to the statement being false/
they refuse
, they can try again until the Red Truth is used.

The two bolded statements are in conflict, unless you specify the refusal confirms that something in the blue is false (and thus cannot be repeated in red).

Please solve this conflict.

The culprit had the aid of an accomplice.
There is another key that can lock the dining hall door besides the five master keys and the dining hall key in the envelope.

That means that if I refuse, the Helper can try making me repeat other things until I do repeat in red.

The only keys which can lock the dining hall's main door are the five master keys and the Dining Hall's key.

There are no more than twelve living humans on the island presently.
All twelve living humans entered the dining hall through the dining hall's main door at some point after Luka unlocked it and discovered the bodies.
The culprit is one of the six victims.
