Everyone stood silent at their podiums as Mystery looked on a tablet which he was holding in his hands...Were the vote results shown there? Most definetely. Hisashi took a quick look to see how Ken was hanging on and well...The Jester was just looking down, waiting for the results to be shown or told or..however it was going to be revealed. He definetely seemed upset about it...but was he upset about killing Teruo? Or that he lost the trial? Or both..?

....It was a mystery which could perhaps be revealed now...but suddenly, Mystery spoke up.

Mystery: ''Ahem...Well...I gathered all 15 votes. So..Let's see who you all chose for, shall we?''

Suddenly, the lights turned off as soon as Mystery snapped, and then...

Mystery: ''And the one with most votes is...''

....

....

....

Only one light turned on. That one, was shining on Ken. Only Ken...And then...

Mystery: ''Mr. Ken Teshima. The Ultimate Jester. And you all were....''

....

....

....

....

The light began to change color, from the normal white color to...green! After that, the lights turned on all once again...And Mystery continued, clapping as he seemed to be..happy to hear the results. Or was he mad? ...Hard to say. His mask was hiding his expressions after all...

Mystery: ''Well...I am surprised..I must congratulate you all. You all voted correctly. The one who killed the Ultimate Doctor, Teruo Tokanaga, was indeed Ken Teshima, as you all have voted.''

Nana: ''N-No way...''

Cho: ''K-Ken...!''

Ken: ''...So, I truly lost huh..?''

''Heh...Kinda funny a bit. I really tried to hide those clues and yet...I still lost.''

Hiroshi: ''I must admit, I am quite surprised you managed to not leave so many clues behind...I thought you were dumber than that, just like Hisashi a bit.''

Hisashi: ''H-Hey now!''

Ken: ''H-Heh...A jester is always full of surprises Hiroshi, ya know?''

''I mean..Did you honestly think for a minute that the one who really wants people to work together...Would just look for the key and try to get out by themselves..? And even...kill someone, just cause they weren't realizing what they were doing anymore at that point..''

Naoko: ''You..weren't realizing what you were doing anymore at that point..?''

Ken: ''Mhm...''

Kaoru: ''...You were panicked. You lost sight of what you would actually have to do and...''

Hiroshi: ''Lost control and just did the unspeakable.''

Ken: ''....Yup. Not surprised that the Ultimate Chemist and the Ultimate Police Officer figured that one out as well...''
