Danganronpa Kirigiri
Johnny Arp considers taking a new, interesting spin to the offered cases by offering Yui and Kyoko a challenge; To fulfill their task and take out the opposing side's chosen article of clothing by a bullet. As a reward, they are fast-tracked to discovering more about the Victim's Catharsis Committee. At first, Yui is skeptical but Licorne joins in as well, wanting to see the outcome. They discuss that Licorne and Johnny would take the side of 'Defence'- Letting the Culprit on with their task, and both Yui and Kyoko the side of 'Offence'- Interfering with the Noir and attempting to stop the plan from coming into fruition. Both parties have a sniper rifle and 3 bullets to commence their plan using indirect means. Due to the nature of the challenge, Yui refers to the multiple weapons listed as the possible Culprits.

Time passes and they set onto the location stated using Johnny's tank, in which they are suddenly taken on by M60, with their truck closing in and raining bullets on their vehicle. Johnny states that the tank isn't as resistant to bullets and resorts to a bag full of sugar and sand to throw at the vehicle, causing 'M60's' weapon to jam. Johnny then shoots the vehicle's tires and it veers off the road and to a cliff. He then explained that earlier he has also killed another culprit 'Dragunov' while trying to commute. He shot back and traced his path to the body, but it was nowhere to be found.

They arrive at the amusement park only to be overwhelmed by bullets, and Licorne orders Johnny to run off to the mirror maze building to shield himself. Seeing that a person in a ghillie suit is running towards Johnny with throwing knives, Licorne follows them in to support Johnny. He then discovers that the 'Throwing Knife' attacker is dead, along with someone wearing Johnny's clothing also laying dead with a knife, his rifle nowhere to be found. He then leaves only to be surprised by 'Throwing Knife's feign- He attempts to defend himself not before being severely lacerated to the neck by the attack, using his strength to push open the exit's door only to be rained on by M4 bullets from an unknown location. Later on both Yui and Kyoko arrive on the scene to spot him severely wounded, though still breathing. They head into the mirror maze and saw a bullet hole on the ground as well as a small hole on the ceiling; Reaching the conclusion that the attacker shot from somewhere high.

Kyoko suggested that 'TAC50' used a camera behind a one-sided mirror to monitor the target for more accuracy. They visit the ferris wheel from the rear end and find 32 M4 rifles pointing out from the ferris wheel's cabins, in which a closer look concluded it was modified to act like a revolver- The program uses a preset of the target's portrait and fires automatically upon sight. Another possibility ruled that 'TAC50' fired from underground, and they leave to enter an underground well. Upon approaching the target though, Yui blew their cover slightly by stepping on a nail and alerting the Culprit to their presence, in which they are met with the culprit's gun focused on her. They fired but the bullet instead shattered a mirror in which Kyoko was using to obscure her presence. She retaliates with a warning shot and threatens to end their life if they move. Yui then restrains 'TAC50' with handcuffs as they leave to tend to Licorne.

Upon approaching him though, Kyoko sights a concealed culprit with 'Throwing Knives', standing to attack but is shot in the head by Johnny, unraveling Kyoko's ribbon in which their challenge ends. They then deduce how Johnny was able to fake his death in which he stood in front of the camera and trick 'TAC50' into thinking he's in range by using the true culprit, 'Joshua Lindbergh's body to fake the system. He took his rifle with him and hid within the mirror maze, which triggered Licorne to contact both Yui and Kyoko.

At the end of the case, Yui receives the award, which is a key.

Results and Aftermath

 * Licorne escapes with major lacerations and gunshot wounds, winding up in a hospital for treatment. He then eventually discharges himself.
 * After a DNA test, the body resembling Johnny found in the Mirror Maze belonged to the Victim 'Joshua Lindbergh', an American programmer who developed the M4 automatic program found on the ferris wheel. Johnny Arp used the location's mirror tricks to lead the victim to his death.
 * Both Yui and Kyoko leave, having obtained a key given to them by Licorne. They key opens and inside is another black envelope and a message by Johnny Arp stating 'Life is what you make of it!'
