(I changed the description to have trigger warnings and a few more things I want to have as little trouble as possible, might add it to the AN)

Non-stop debate!

Truth bullets:

Wet Shirt

Wires and parts

Square hole in ice

Ice shavings

Ashton: First we need to check at the time. Did you see anything there that could have been used to DIY a round skewer?

Chloe: I think there was something... I just can't think of it...

Yu Xuan: Weren't there a bunch of wires? Maybe the killer stuck them into her abdomen.

Tan Liang: The hole in her chest was pretty large, you'd need to make such a large hole.

Randi: But there were no materials to use...

Hanako: Maybe the killer used something to carve out the weapon. - - - square hole in ice - - -

Ashlyn: I agree with that! - - - CONSENT - - -

Ashlyn: You're right, the killer must have carved the weapon out of the ice!

Rachel: What?

Chloe: At the crime scene, there was a large square hole in the ice, it was really deep so it's impossible for it to have been formed naturally. The killer must have carved the murder weapon out from it.

Sophie: Are you stupid? The murder weapon was round. The hole is square. That means the ice block was also rectangular.

Ashton: It's ice. It doesn't have a permanent shape. The killer could have changed the shape of the ice block into a sharp round skewer.

Tan Liang: How though?

I'm pretty sure I know how the shape of the ice block was changed. The killer...

1. Didn't use the ice block

2. Threw it at Alyssa

3. Carved the block down

4. Melted it down

Ashlyn: That's it! - - - GOT IT - - -

Ashlyn: The killer used something sharp to carve down the block into a sharp skewer! Maybe that's why there were ice shavings everywhere!

Randi: Well, what did the killer use to carve it down?

Chloe: There was a cleaver next to Alyssa's body. Cleavers are sort of rectangular, maybe the killer used that to carve out the block and make it a skewer. An icicle if you will.

Yu Xuan: So the killer stabbed Alyssa with an icicle? Couldn't they have just used any knife?

Ashton: I guess they wanted us to have a hard time finding out the weapon. I mean they didn't really succeed since we did it anyway, but they did a good job wasting our time and stalling I guess.

Hanako: You're right, the icicle would eventually melt under the hot lights in the ice rink.

Ashlyn: So that's why her shirt was wet...

Rachel: Okay, so now we know what was used to kill Alyssa. How about Miyoshi?

Ashton: We already figured out that the phone wasn't what sliced open her throat. What else was already on hand to do the trick?

Chloe: The cleaver!

Ashlyn: So the blood on the cleaver wasn't Alyssa's! It was Miyoshi's!

Hanako: We still need to figure out who died first.

Ashton: Well, let's see what other evidence we have. Was there anything else at Alyssa's scene?

Chloe: There was a note and a smudged upside down "A" on the ice next to the body.

Ashton: An- An upside down "A"???

Rachel: Do you think Alyssa tried to write the killer's name???

Randi: If that's the case, the killer is either Ashton or Ashlyn!

Ashlyn: No- Wait let's not jump to conclusions!

Hanako: She's right. Chloe, you said there was a note there, right? What did it say?

Chloe: It said something like "Meet me at the ice rink locker room, let's have a chat."

Hanako: Was there a name written there?

Chloe: There was, but unfortunately the killer blanked it out.

Ashton: How about those of you that investigated the daycare?

Yu Xuan: we found some wires, a dead phone and a used screwdriver. I'm pretty sure that's it.

Hanako: Mm...

Ashton: How about Miyoshi's room?

Chloe: We found a few things, actually. There was a note, hold on, I have it right now.

Chloe pulled a note out of her pocket and showed everyone what was written on it.

Rachel: 10pm? Daycare, hoodie, prepare. If it has a time, maybe we should check the CCTV footage.

Tan Liang: If I'm not wrong, at 10pm, Miyoshi entered the locker room.

Yu Xuan: It makes sense since the note told her to go there at 10...

Tan Liang: And at 9.50, a hooded figure entered the locker room.

Randi: Maybe that was the killer!

Chloe: Maybe that's what the note meant! At 10pm, Miyoshi had to go to the daycare by entering the locker room.

Ashton: Maybe the word "hoodie" was to tell Miyoshi to come with a hoodie and that the killer was also going to wear a hoodie.

Tan Liang: Wait a minute...

Ashlyn: What?

Tan Liang: Three days ago, I lost my hoodie.

Yu Xuan: You had a hoodie?

Tan Liang: Yea, I got tired of wearing the same clothes everyday so I checked out the clothing store and took a black hoodie.

Ashlyn: So the killer stole Tan Liang's hoodie?

Tan Liang: Seems like it.

Ashton: How about we investigate the CCTV footage even further?

Yu Xuan: Okay then, at 7pm, Miyoshi entered the locker room, and at 8pm she left together with... Sophie.

Randi: Sophie, why were you with the victim at the scene of the crime at the night of the crime? Are you the killer???

Sophie: Are you trying to frame me? You're just making yourself look dumb.

Ashton: No, why were you there?

Sophie: Why are we all here?

Ashlyn: Wait, I think I know why she was with Miyoshi.

Yea, I definitely know, it's because...

1. Miyoshi told me

2. It's in the meet up note

3. Miyoshi used a secret code to tell us

4. Miyoshi wrote about it in her diary

Ashlyn: That's it! - - - GOT IT - - -

Ashlyn: Miyoshi wrote it in her diary!

Rachel: Oh yea! She wrote that someone asked to meet her at the daycare at 7pm! That must be Sophie.

Ashton: Did it state why they met up?

Yu Xuan: I think Sophie was supposed to help her fix something...

Hanako: It said something like "She told me to bring extras" What do you think that means?

Ashton: Let's go back to what you found in the daycare. It does fit the description, wires, and screwdriver, but how about the phone?
