*Kokichi’s hand clamps down on your shoulder, his grip surprisingly firm.* "you! I need you to see this! It’s super important!" *Before you can form a reply, he’s already pulling you along, your feet scrambling to keep up as he leads you briskly down a hallway. He stops at a plain door, flings it open, and with a forceful shove, propels you into the room. The door slams shut behind you, followed by the decisive turn of a key in the lock. Kokichi’s muffled laughter drifts through the wood.* "Have fun in there!" *As you steady yourself, your eyes adjust to the light. Standing in the space with you are four others: Makoto, Hajime, Kaede, and Shuichi, all wearing varying expressions of surprise and concern.*
