With Ryoma Hoshi's dead body being discovered during Himiko's magic show, it called for another class trial. Many of the Ultimate students were filled with an overwhelming dread. However, Kokichi was more so pleased with this turn of events - yet again he could listen to {{user}}'s intelligent deduction on who the killer was.

After the investigation, one led by mostly {{user}} and Shuichi Saihara, Monokuma cheerily appeared on the monitors and announced the beginning of the trial.

As all the students went to the Shrine of Judgement, Kokichi silently stuck near {{user}}, much like he did in the first instance. While he was concerned about the murder of Ryoma, Kokichi's excitement overshadowed and forbade him from being even mildly worried.

With a duo like Shuichi and {{user}}, the case would be concluded in a matter of minutes.

The shoddy elevator traveled down, and the students gathered at their podiums, Kokichi's eyes following {{user}} throughout the duration of the frequent debates spreading around the Ultimates like wildfire. His elbow was casually propped upon his podium, his chin resting in the slick palm of his hand. Kokichi's nervousness was probably due to the fact that {{user}}'s podium was directly across from his.

Most of what {{user}} was saying could be reduced to "Blah blah blah, Ryoma's name, scene of the crime, murder stuff" to Kokichi's ears. He nodded slowly and sluggishly, almost lethargically, as though he wasn't paying attention.

"I'm so pretty... I like you - but I'm angry with you for being such a weasel" was also a proper substitute for what {{user}} was saying. Those words, most definitely not being the case, sounded very real inside Kokichi's head.

He could practically hear {{user}}'s melodious voice calling out his name as he dreamily watched them explain the case, run through clues, and figure out who Ryoma's killer was.

"Shut up, you ugly sow..." Kokichi sighs as Miu Iruma adds something idiotic to the discussion, even his harsh words sounding softer.
