[Time to announce the perpetrator: 15 minutes]

"D***! Time's up!" Lisa muttered angrily after seeing the window.

"We didn't get anything new, what should we do now?" Loe asked with a confused face

Actually, until now Luke and the others didn't get any progress in the case so they couldn't find the culprit the angel was looking for the thing that made everyone in a chaotic mood.

"No matter who I think of it, I can't find a more suspicious suspect than the head of the Prada family," Iman said suddenly, looking at Fray with a skeptical look.

"..." After hearing this claim Luke Aslan, Lisa, the princesses, and everyone involved in the investigation looked at Fray, who still carry an indifferent expression, as if what was happening now didn't matter to him at all, in fact, they all can't think of a suspect other than Fray but unfortunately they do not have the evidence nor the power to vote on him now.

By noticing that Aslan finally realized why Fray didn't want to release the hostages

"Lady. Noelle, you are the heiress of the Lionar Kingdom, what do you think we should do?" Luke asked,

Noelle is the first princess and the direct heiress to the throne of the kingdom, and since this matter concerns the citizens of her kingdom, Luke thought it necessary to take her opinion before doing anything.

(Actually, the only option left is to sacrifice someone to pass this dilemma But unfortunately, I can't say that idea out loud) Noelle l actually has a few ideas for dealing with the situation but she can't say any of them. If the citizens of the kingdom find out about these ideas, Noelle will lose their support for sure

(If only that bastard didn't have these hostages...) Noelle thought angrily, looking in Fray's direction before turning around and looking at Luke to say, "I actually don't have any good ideas. I'll let you deal with this situation, Mr. Luke if it's possible." "

"Well, actually, I can't find a suitable solution for this situation as well," Luke said with an uncomfortable expression, looking at the angel who was still waiting for their response.

"I have an idea but I'm not sure if it will work," said Firrett, who had joined the investigation as well

"Do you really have an idea? What is it?" Luke asked with a hopeful expression on his face when he heard Firrett's statement

"We don't vote," Firrett said with a serious expression before looking at everyone's questionable expressions and continued, "the angel can't force us all to vote, after all, he can't harm all of us just for not voting, I guess if we all abstained from voting, the angel would surely give us another chance."

"This idea has a lot of uncalculated variables, but it's actually the only solution we have right now if we don't want to sacrifice an innocent person," said Lisa after some time of thought.

"But how are we going to convince all these people not to vote?" Lisa asked, noticing the look of terror on the guests' faces.

"Yes, that's going to be difficult," Firrett said with a serious expression. There are more than four hundred guests, and even if only some of them decided to vote, the law will count their votes, so for this plan to succeed, all guests, without exception, should abstain from voting.

"We don't have any other solution other than this, let's separate and try to talk to them," Luke said

Hence, having decided what plan to follow, all the members of the investigation dispersed and began to persuade the guests not to vote on anyone.

On the other hand, Fray, who was watching this farce without interfering, suddenly noticed a member of the investigation advancing in his direction.

"Fray, I'm sure you know what we're trying to do, can we count on you?" Lisa asked in a serious voice after arriving in front of Fray

"Okay, I won't vote," Fray said briefly. After all, Fray knows that his vote wouldn't change anything anyway.

"Okay, thank you," Lisa said with a grateful expression, before slowly turning her eyes to look in the direction of the guests still stuck in Rin's wires as she thought (Should I ask him about that...?)

After noticing Lisa's gaze, Fray said slowly, "I already promised that I wouldn't interfere with the vote."

After hearing Fray's answer, Lisa's expression turned disappointed, and said, "Yes, you're right, well, thanks anyway."

[Voting time has ended]

Suddenly a window appeared before the eyes of the guests, causing everyone to look and fall into solemn silence, waiting for the next window to appear.

[The main suspect is....]

[Alex Zohan]

"What ?..."

"How did this happen? Didn't we all agree not to vote?"

" D***..." Luke muttered angrily.

"The plan failed," Lisa said with a disappointed expression

In fact, they all knew that the possibility of failure of this plan was big. After all, it was almost impossible to convince all these frightened and perturbed people to try such an uncertain plan, but even so, they still had hope that it would succeed and that they would not have to sacrifice an innocent person.

"No! No! It's not my fault. I didn't do anything… I'm innocent." A middle-aged man suddenly started screaming in the middle of the guests.

"..." Luke, Aslan, Lisa, and all the other members of the investigation looked at the man with regretful and sympathetic expressions, unable to know what to do.

Suddenly the man who was trembling with fear began to walk towards Luke, shouting, "Please, Mr. Luke, please save me..."

Unfortunately, before the man can reach Luke's position...

[The suspect has been sentenced...]

[by death]

Doof

Suddenly, the man's head exploded incomprehensibly and his dead body fell to the ground, leaving all the guests shocked by the horror of the scene
