Taufeq was surprised to see the TV turn back on. He walked over to it and tried to turn it off, but it wouldn't budge. Suddenly, a man appeared on the screen and Taufeq recognized him as the boss of the game they were about to play.

"Welcome, contestants," the man said. "The game of Werewolf has begun. Remember, only the strongest will survive."

Taufeq felt a surge of courage inside him. He was determined to win this game, no matter how dangerous it was. He knew he couldn't let fear get the best of him.

"Bring it on," Taufeq said, a steely determination in his voice. "I'm ready for anything."

The man said, "Before we start the game, I need to explain the rules to all of you. Firstly, there will be two teams which the Werewolves and the Villagers. The Werewolves' objective is to eliminate all the Villagers, while the Villagers' objective is to identify and eliminate the Werewolves.

"The first thing I need to tell you is that each of you has been given a role card," the man said, his voice echoing in the silence of the cell. "You need to check it carefully and understand what your role is in this game."

Taufeq listened intently, his heart racing with excitement and fear. He couldn't wait to see what kind of role he had been given.

"As you all know, there are Werewolves among us, but there are also other roles you need to be aware of," the man continued. "One of those roles is the Serial Killer. This person is not on the side of the villagers or the Werewolves, but acts alone to eliminate everyone else in the game."

Taufeq felt a shiver run down his spine at the mention of the Serial Killer. He wondered who among them had been given that role.

The man cleared his throat and continued, "Now, I must inform you all that there is a Witch in this game. This Witch has the power to save or kill someone each night. But be warned, if the Witch saves a werewolf, she will die instead. And if the Witch kills an innocent person, she will be haunted by guilt and lose her powers for the rest of the game."

He paused for a moment, making sure everyone understood the rules. "Also, there is a Seer among you who can detect the true identity of one player each night. Use this information wisely, for it may determine the fate of the entire group."

As the reality of the situation sank in, Taufeq couldn't help but wonder who the Witch and the Seer were. He knew that everyone was a potential enemy including his wife Tasha, and that trust would be hard to come by in this twisted game of life and death. He closed his eyes, trying to calm his nerves and prepare for the long night ahead.

"Villagers, listen up," the man said, his voice suddenly becoming more urgent. "You have the ability to attack. Use this ability to slow down the Werewolves if they have already targeted a victim. It could mean the difference between life and death."

Taufeq listened intently, feeling a mix of excitement and apprehension. The game sounded intense, and the roles of werewolves, witches, and serial killers all added to the suspense.

"During the day, all players will discuss and vote on who they think is a Werewolf. The player with the most votes will be eliminated. "

"If all the Werewolves are eliminated, the Villagers win. If the Werewolves outnumber the Villagers, the Werewolves win."

"Remember, you must be strategic and careful with your decisions. Trust no one and be prepared for the unexpected. Let the games begin." As the man finished speaking, the TV suddenly turned off.

As the man finished his explanation and the TV turned off, Taufeq couldn't help but feel a sense of unease wash over him. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about this whole situation. Looking over at Hamid's cell, he noticed a wicked smile spread across his face as he examined his role card.
