Anna stares at them.
Suddenly Belle appears." Ignore them." ordered Belle.
Anna watches them walking away." W-Wait.."
***
Anna sits down.
Ethan puts the bag on the table." Anna." called Ethan.
Anna reacts, " huh ?"" I brought a red apple and a golden apple. You may doubt me an apple or two apples." said Ethan.
Anna smiles.Anna presses the button, " Thank you !"
" Apple. One." said Anna.The gullible girl trusted her dear friend by calling an apple rather than two apples.
" You do know that the results are the same, right ? But it's safer to declare two, in case I took two instead of one." warned Ethan.Anna smiles, " I believe in you."
" The guard didn't fall for the trap the thief had set. The guard earns her apple back and a golden apple."" If I took two red apples, the average would go down." said Ethan.
Anna smiles, " Thank you very much !"***
Round 22
Anna takes the bag in.
Anna is astonished.Belle glances at her.
Anna sits down nervously, " Belle.."Belle presses the button.
" I won't let you pass easily. Apple, two."Anna widens her eyes.
It was my first time, doubted by Belle.
I thought it would end, but it was just the beginning.***
Shane glances at the screen.
He feels fired up all of a sudden.Anna comes in while lowering her head.
Shane passes her, " wait here."***
Shane sits down.
As expected, Ethan would agree to anything he says." I brought a red apple and a golden apple." reported Ethan.
" Apple, two." said Shane.Unlike the believing Anna, Shane felt suspicious and decided to go the safe way.
" The guard didn't fall for the trap the thief had set. The guard earns her apple back and a golden apple."***

Shane puts the bag down.
The door is opened.A creepy smirk is shown on the woman's face.
" Long time no see." said Belle.It's the first time Shane meeting Belle in the inspection room.
And the first time having a conversation.[ ost. force of gravity ]
Belle sits down.
" I never met you." said Shane." Oh, but I met you." emphasized Belle.
Shane glances at Belle.Belle smiles creepily.
" Your little sister was cheated to pay a huge debt, right ?" asked Belle.Shane furrows his brows.
He glares at Belle." You.."
Belle presses the button to let them listen the conversation.
Belle answers, " Yep. I was her classmate who cheated her money."Shane growls, " You bastard !"
Belle smiles creepily.
