" WHO VOTED CROW ?!" shouted Quinn.
" Well, it seems that we can't work together, now that we all have our pens back." said Wilfredo.

Wilfredo chuckles.
" You ! Was it you ?!" Quinn glares at Wilfredo.

Wilfredo glances at the score board.
" Huh ?! I voted Crow !"

A -3
B -1
C -1
D -1
E -1
F 8
G -1
H -1

Wilfredo looks at them, " Why is my money down a million ?!"
" I voted yours." Shane cut his sentence, " all of you."

" How ?!" asked Teddy.
" Last round when I got all of your pens, I voted with all of your pens again and I kept the votes in my pocket. Then at the beginning of the round, I put them all in. Except for me and Anna, so the time won't stop and no one will suspect." said Shane.

" Then ? You betrayed us ?!" shouted Quinn frustrated.
" Who is F ?!" asked Ernest.

" It's Mr. Shane."
Everyone glares at Anna.

Shane stands beside Anna.
" But it seems like someone used my pen and voted with it."

" You mean, last round ?" asked Anna.
" Yeah. And that means that likely that person has the votes of every people here." said Shane, " that person could have used the pens."

Quinn yells, " Whaaat ?!"
" It was me." said Rara.

They all look at Rara.
" I have your pigeon votes. I can make you go into debt anytime." threatened Rara.

" You're bluffing." said Shane.
Shane pulls Anna away from the mess.

Time left 1 hour 54 minutes

Anna sighs and looks at Shane.
" Mr. Shane, don't you think that Rara's stare is a bit weird ?"

" What are you implying ?" asked Shane without turning his head.
" Don't you think that she likes you ?"

" It would be strange for her to like me." asked Shane putting down his book.
" From my perspective, it wouldn't be strange at all." said Anna honestly.

Shane stops and stares at Anna.
" I mean it, Mr. Shane."

" She hates me." replied Shane.
" Eh ?"

" I know her."
