"All right, we've ignored the obvious conclusion for long enough," Makoto said. Hajime and Shuichi nodded agreement. "Who else could realistically be behind these kidnappings? Who else could reasonably be the Ultimate Kidnappers, if not Mukuro and Junko?"

Hajime slapped his forehead. "I can't believe nobody thought of that until now!"

Shuichi tugged the brim of his cap down a bit, thinking deeply. "I'm not sure I want to commit to that just yet, but I think it's worth considering. Mukuro is strong enough to overpower even stronger girls like Peko and Maki, and Junko's crafty enough to outfox even Kyoko and Kaede. The two of them would certainly fit the evidence."

"Well, then, let's go investigate their cottages! There's gotta be some clue there!"

But when they opened the door to Mukuro's cottage, they were greeted with a shocking sight - Mukuro herself, trussed up tightly with rope and gagged with duct tape.

There was a note lying the bedside table. "Upupupu! Looks like you finally figured out our little scheme! I should have known that my sister would ruin everything! She's always been a terrible sidekick. So I figured I'd leave her here for you to find - while I make my escape with my ten lovely hostages. Just imagine what kind of despairful things I have planned for them! Teehee! Love, Junko <3"

We never get any swimsuit art with Mukuro's real hairstyle, so I thought it was time to correct that injustice. But, of course, I had to include the Junko-fied version too, because it's very sexy. Her swimsuit is really pretty, but it was super intense to draw! All of those little flowery details were crazy, but I had a good time with it. I hope you like her!
