Inside of her mind, Kiki is met by Kaito Momota (one of her former babysitters and Maki's deceased husband) who's able to help her remember both himself and Maki. Before he leaves, he gives her a pep talk and tells her that some other people can help her regain her memories. Kiki's then met with her grandfather Jin Kirigiri, who helps her regain the rest of her memories. The two are soon joined be the deceased members of Class 78 (Sayaka Maizono, Leon Kuwata, Chihiro Fujisaki, Mondo Owada, Kiyotaka Ishimaru, Hifumi Yamada, Celestia Ludenberg/Taeko Yasuhiro, and Sakura Ogami) who reveal that they were the mysterious voices she heard during her near-death experience. They try to encourage Kiki to keep fighting to no avail. Suddenly, everyone's greeted be the real Junko Enoshima and her sister Mukuro Ikusaba, the latter of which tried and failed the stop the former. Surprisingly, Junko convinces Kiki to defeat Tsumugi before leaving. This, combined with hearing the voices of her family and former babysitter, allows Kiki to break out of her own despair to confront her former friend.\\\

At the Nurse's Office, Kiki reveals that when she was pushed down the stairs, she was nearing death when she hears mysterious voices encouraging her to live. Afterwards, she willed herself to the trial ground in order to stop Sokyu from being falsely executed. Everyone reveals Kiki's last name to her and guesses that she might be the redacted girl in “The Second Tragedy That Almost Was". Kiki then asks to talk to Sokyu, who's outside of the room and blocked by Gonta and Ryoma, where she forgives him due to her understanding that he isn't truly a bad person. Kiki's then taken back to her room while Shuichi stays to watch over her, the two eventually sleeping in the same bed when the former starts suffering from nightmares.\\\

Back at Kibou Academy, Monokuma arrives to give everyone the Monokuma File as well as taunt everyone by revealing Kiki's last name to be "Naegi". Afterwards, the group investigate the entire academy, with Shuichi leading the charge. During the investigation, Kirumi and Keebo reveal to Shuichi that, though during some humiliating tasks for Monokuma, got the bear to agree to not dispose of Kiki's corpse like he usually does after a Class Trial so they can hold a proper funeral for her. Eventually, Monokuma calls everyone to the trial grounds. As everyone leaves, Shuichi stays back in order to pay his last respects to Kiki. While he does so, he takes off his hat and places it oh Kiki's body, showing he's no longer afraid of searching for the truth. After noting one last piece of evidence, Shuichi meets up with everyone else and the Class Trial begins.\\\

Voting Time occurs and Monokuma confirms that Sokyu killed Kiki. Sokyu reveals that the reason he killed Kiki went as far back as the Motive Video, which Monokuma shows to everyone. Doing so reveals that Sokyu's last name is "Akafuku" and that he's related to Jutaro Akafuku, a criminal that Makoto and Kyoko helped apprehend during their time at Hope's Peak. Sokyu reveals that the times that Monokuma talked to him alone was the bear confirming his heritage and that both Jutaro and Shutaro Akafuku, Jutaro's brother and Sokyu's father, tried to get Makoto and Kyoko killed. When he trying to reconcile with that information, he was met by Kiki who tried to help him. During this, Kiki discovered that Sokyu had his secret given to him by Monokuma. Fearing that Kiki would want revenge for what his father and uncle tried to do to her parents, Sokyu pushed her down the stairs to her death. As Sokyu's about to be executed, a surprise guest appears in the trial grounds: Kiki. Due to the rules, Sokyu is spared from execution as he actually didn't kill Kiki. The group then takes the heavily injured girl the Nurse's Room to patch her up.\\\

After Voting Time, Monokuma confirms that Seven committed suicide. Gonta reveals that he tried to get everyone killed through an incorrect vote because he read a suicide note from Seven that says that he took his own life out of despair. Feeling guilty for not being able to protect anyone, Gonta tried to get everyone killed as an act of mercy. Shuichi looks at the note and figures out that the note is fake, which Monokuma confirms to have forged. The bear reads Seven's real suicide note, which reveals that he killed himself in order to stop all the infighting. It also reveals that Seven had regained his memories of the Nonary Game and that the Teruaki knew had to be a fake, as the real Teruaki died during the Nonary Game. Rather than turning against each other like Monokuma had wanted when he made the fake suicide note, everyone rallies together and refuses to blame Kiki or Gonta. Out of pettiness, Monokuma decides to execute all of Gonta's bug friends. As they leave the trial grounds, Gonta and Kiki apologize for what they done and everyone forgives them.\\\

Both Clover's and Lotus' deaths are revealed to be connected due to the Body Discovery Announcement playing when Kiki and Shuichi found Lotus despite it using playing when three people find a corpse. The group's eventually able to make Monokuma reveal that the killer (Sokyu) doesn't count as one of the people who found Lotus' body, meaning the third person was Clover's killer. Shuichi and Kiki were able to figure out that Lotus' body was moved by the killer to clean the knife they used to kill Clover. Kiki's eventually able to deduce that it was Teruaki due to him leaving during Clover's investigation.\\\

Sokyu reveals that when he went to the kitchen to get some food when Lotus tried to kill him due to her believing that he was the mastermind and killed Clover for seemingly discovering his secret. Lotus was only able to stab Sokyu in the shoulder before he stabbed her using a knife that he was using beforehand. Naturally, this causes some of the others to accuse Sokyu of killing Clover too, which he denies. After a Debate Scrum, Kiki's able to convince everyone not to vote for Sokyu and move back to discussing Clover's death.\\\
