recap of chapter 2 : There are 7 players left; one of the imposters has been eliminated.
The atmosphere had become extremely calm and everyone was smiling. Despite the losses, this latest success had given hope back to each of the players.
Ange(by moving next to Acedion and touching his shoulder to attract his attention):
“I owe you a lot, thank you for protecting me; without you I would never have guessed he was the imposter. ”
Ac ( smiling ) :” I know you would have done the same for me…”
Ange: “But how did you know that number 8 was the imposter?”
Ac(in a cheerful and proud tone): “All of this is thanks to Shin. We had devised a plan based on the five suspects in the group and the information provided by the tasks. We knew that the two imposters were men, and by hypothesis, we excluded ourselves as imposters. Then, when forming the groups, we placed one suspect (from the group of five) in each group with a woman and either myself or Shin. We therefore knew there was a high probability that the imposter was with one of us (100 percent, since there were three men in the group of five, including the one they had eliminated during the vote). All that remained was to provoke the imposters until they started acting.”
Shin:”Don't talk nonsense… you were the one who acted and devised the provocative strategy. You were also the one who managed to discover that Angelo was the imposter. You succeeded where I failed. You protected all of us with your tactics
I trust you... no, we all trust you completely now.”
Ac(a little embarrassed): “ thanks…”
Ange : “ What should we do now?”
There was a moment of silence before the response of Acedion
Ac:”I think we should stay here…”
reus “ We need information, and if we stay here as a group, we'll just get killed.”
shin; “ I agree, we have no information on the second imposter.”
Ac:”Let me explain... I think the imposters can't eliminate us here, otherwise they would have certainly done it already, since they can kill in front of everyone without proof. By separating and leaving this room, we'll only be helping them. We should be preparing for the vote instead.”
shin (Thinking ) :”Doing nothing... Every action I took was aimed at obtaining information, but each time I failed. Perhaps his strategy will work better…”
Shin : “Still ,we can and should send someone to perform the tasks safely.”
Ac:”You're right, I'll do the tasks alone.”
shin : “I wasn't talking about you; we need you here to identify the culprit and guide us.”
The group that was still in the side rooms returned and interrupted the conversation. Acedion explained the situation and what he was thinking of doing.
Elisa(she was still shocked by Anna's death ):”I also think we should stay together. But we should send the most suspicious person away in case he's capable of eliminating us here too .
I remind you that Shin lied for no reason and let someone die.There is a very high chance that he is the imposter.”
AC:”But you don't understand... It's thanks to Shin that I was able to … “

Shin (interrupting him): Don't worry, I understand, and this will be a way to atone for my mistake.(smilling) I'll go, I'll try my best…. In the meantime, I'm counting on you. Remember every important detail to find out who the imposter is…
The other players did not contest the choice made. Shin left through the door after Acedion nodded in response.
Ange: (thinking) (looking at a notification on her phone): So there really are such monsters in this world…
Shin : (thinking)(looking at a notification on his phone ) : So there is such a talented person here…
Ac: Okay everyone, I need each of you to tell me if you've noticed any suspicious activity from any player. We'll do this individually to avoid open conflict.
Acedion spoke with each of the other players individually but didn't learn much new information beyond what he already knew, so he summarized all the information so everyone could help him.
Ac: First, the imposters. There's only one imposter left. Each imposter can eliminate players, but we don't know how they do it or if there are any conditions they must meet. Furthermore, the two imposters were communicating with each other. Second, this place. According to the rules, there's a way out, but I don't understand its architecture , and it seems the imposters know it better than we do. Finally, we know the last imposter is a man, which leaves very few options. ( There are 5 men and two women left )
Ishan ( He was very calm, bald, and spoke little. At many moments, he seemed to be praying to a god. ) : “They communicate with each other... I think the key to understanding who the imposter is is to retrace the actions of player number 8 (Angelo).”
Ange: “I agree, but I was with Angelo each time and he didn't act suspiciously.”
Ishan : “I'm not talking about these direct actions, but rather these more implicit actions as an imposter. For example, he chose to eliminate relatively weak players, which is a consistent strategy since in this type of game, people tend to vote for the strong personalities or the more discreet ones. He therefore eliminated the players most likely to remain after the votes. But with this, we can understand their way of thinking. There's a good chance the imposter is someone who's somewhat withdrawn, but not too much so.”
Ac (thinking ) : “Ishan and Powshi (was a black person of average height with braids) correspond to this description”
Ishan:Well, that's certainly what he wants us to believe. The second imposter is undoubtedly extremely intelligent; he used Angelo without taking any risks. There's a good chance he's actually a leader who wants to control the game's movements. Ultimately, all of this is just speculation without any real evidence to support it.
Ac (thinking ) : “ He knows how to talk. He first presented himself as a suspect to bolster his argument and his neutral stance. This allowed him to indirectly accuse us. All this without mentioning a single one of our names and without drawing too much attention to himself. “
Even if he had downplayed his remarks, one could understand that these words had directly affected each of the players present who were beginning to understand the main features of the game and were beginning to suspect everyone there.
Ac (thinking ) : “I absolutely must prevent the game from becoming a duel of eloquence and persuasion. But there's really no proof… under these conditions, is this really the only solution?”
Ishan : “We have to make a choice, ask ourselves who the most suspicious person is.”
Ac (thinking ) : “He's annoying…”
Ac : “We still have time; we need to reflect on the events of the last few rounds.…”
They took some time to discuss, but Ishan gained the upper hand and steered the vote
towards Shin by reminding him of his lie.
One of the doors to the room opened. Shin had finally returned after 30 minutes of searching. He had managed to complete one of the tasks.
Acedion (ashamed, looking at Shin with a sad expression) (thinking): "I've failed. I'm incapable of succeeding without your help."
Shin (understanding the situation with Acedion’s gaze.): "I suppose you've labeled me an imposter... I understand..."
Ac(thinking):” I can’t let that happen! “
During the remaining time, the atmosphere was tense; groups formed and talked amongst themselves.During the remaining time, the atmosphere was tense; groups formed and talked amongst themselves.
Voice:”End of round 4, one task completed, information rated 1 star , the imposter has blue, black or brown eyes , the vote will begin . Sit on your respective chair .
Shin (thinking): “useless information”
Voice: "The vote is over, number 12 (Powshi) is eliminated “
Shin : “...”
Before the vote : Acedion went to see Ange, Reus, and Shin and convinced them to vote for Powshi. Ange easily agreed, as did Reus. Shin was more hesitant, but he still seemed determined to live.
Ishan : “ Are you stupid??? You eliminated an innocent person!!!! Bunch of idiots!!! “
Ishan was all the more annoyed because Powshi was the person he got along with best and one of his only true allies.
Ishan : “ You ar …..”
They were interrupted by Elisa, who started vomiting on the floor and crying... it was a rather unpleasant sight for everyone present.
Ange was the first to come to his aid, and then others followed.
Ange :“ Are you okay ? “
Elisa : “I'm fed up, I want to leave, I want to go home. I want to see my dog ??again.Why always me? “
At the same time, Ishan took advantage of the situation to strike Acedion from behind in the face and throw him to the ground.
He then threw himself on top of him and kept hitting him.
Shin tried to stop him but was repelled.
Reus started laughing at the situation
chaos refers to complete disorder and confusion.
If we were to paint the moment, we could perfectly define chaos with the result…
