Station of Despair, Trial 1 (Complete)

[Technature]

"Ugh, how many times do I have to tell you?  I didn't break a single rule."  The cyborg seems visibly annoyed by the barman's repeated accusations.  "It's getting annoying.  How many times do I have to tell you, I didn't kill anyone who didn't break the rules."

"Ya know what, I'm a cyborg of my word.  I promised you that you'd get video proof if you picked the killer, so here ya go."

The display screen lit up again, this time displaying various camera footage.  "Better pay attention, you idiots!"

Spoiler!

"It all actually started a little bit after my announcement of the killing games.  I'd be proud if I wasn't so sure this was a coincidence.  Irene had been interested in some painkilling medicine that someone was offering.  Took em off her hands and scarfed em down in what can only be described as......something."

"Afterwards, she went back to get the follow-up medicine, but she got a little...something.  It certainly wasn't lethal poison, but Irene had spent pretty much the rest of the day puking her lunch out.  You have no idea how annoying it was to clean that shit out of carpet, believe me."

"Finally, she went for one final bit of help before proceeding to exercise.  I WAS thinking of yelling at Phoebe to stop giving me excuses to get off my ass, buuuuut I wanted to see how this went.  I had a hunch, and boy was it a heck of a hunch.  Irene had gotten tired particularly earlier than usual and went to sit on the chair to rest.  Night time had passed, but...well, by that point, she was already a corpse, and the rules don't say bodies need to be out of restricted areas, now do they?"

"Afterwards, the station idiot just passed by her without giving it much of a thought.  Wasn't til someone else came in that he finally decided to get her up...or maybe down, in this case.  During the investigation, our killer decided to do one last thing.  Such a shame too.  I bet she would have gotten away with it if she hadn't, but she must have felt some sort of sympathy.  Humanity's true killer."

"And well, you all know who was behind this one.  Dear ol Phoebe."

"So there ya go.  The last need for that display til next time."  With that, the display screen went back up to the ceiling.
