Chapter 110 Two Out

Breakfast ended in silence, followed by the voting process.

Eight people were seated around the round table: Sherry, Boudica, Caltacia, Fibel, Isabella, Emily, Elena, and Leon.

Helena appeared on time, looking at everyone around the round table. "Everyone's here. Now, let's begin the speeches before the first round of voting."

The order of speaking is free, and there is no time limit for each person to speak.

No one spoke immediately.

Lilith is dead, Emily's true identity is unknown, and even Eloise and Charlotte are dead. For a moment, everyone's thoughts were in turmoil.

In the end, Boudica was the first to speak.

"I stayed in my cell all night and didn't leave. I followed Isabella last night. She didn't leave her cell either."

Isabella looked up at Boudica, said nothing, and then lowered her head and spoke softly.

"I didn't leave my cell last night either. You don't need to ask me why I'm still alive, because I myself don't know why the witch didn't kill me."

Then Faibel spoke up, "I didn't leave my cell last night either."

"She's telling the truth," Isabella then said.

As agreed with Li Ang yesterday, she used her ability to verify the authenticity of Fibel's words.

Hearing her say that, Li Ang nodded. He had already guessed the witch's true identity.

It was both unexpected and yet perfectly logical.

At this moment, Emily spoke, her voice so soft that Elena, sitting some distance away, had to strain her ears to hear her.

"I didn't leave my cell last night. I haven't used my potion yet. I don't know who to give it to, or when to use it." She paused, looked up, her eyes still red, but she wasn't crying. "Lilith promised me she would verify my identity. She would tell everyone I'm not a witch. But she's dead."

Elena then spoke.

"I used my power last night. I sent everyone a message—Li Ang's request. When we vote tomorrow, everyone stay put."

Her gaze swept across the crowd. "I don't know how many people received it."

Shirley looked up from the table. "I received it. But I don't quite understand what it means. 'Holding back' means not voting? Then why are we sitting here if we're not going to vote?"

No one answered her.

Helena opened her pocket watch and glanced at it.

"Does anyone else want to speak?"

No one spoke.

Li Ang stood up from his chair, clapped his hands, and the applause was particularly loud in the quiet restaurant, drawing everyone's attention to him.

"I already know who the witch is."

Sherry looked puzzled. Caltacia stared intently at Leon, while Fibel leaned forward slightly in her chair, something flashing in her eyes.

"Who is it?" Boudica asked anxiously.

"I can't say for now. But I need you to vote according to my requirements."

"Who should we vote for?" Caltacia asked.

"I'll vote for you."

Caltacia frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"But I..."

'

"And me. I hope everyone will cast their votes evenly between me and Caltacia."

Now, not only Caltasia, but everyone else was also somewhat confused.

If it were just one person, everyone could understand, but why vote for two people at once, one of whom is Li Ang, who has already proven his innocence? What's going on here?

"Vote for you and me? What do you mean?" Caltacia asked.

"Eight people, one vote each. Four people vote for me, and four people vote for Caltacia," Leon said calmly, "thus eliminating both of them at the same time."

"Are you crazy?" Boudica's voice rose slightly. "Do you want to die with her?"

Li Ang did not answer but looked at Helena.

"According to the rules, what happens if two people get the same number of votes?"

"If two people receive the same number of votes, and the votes remain the same in the second round, then both of them are eliminated."

Caltacia stared at Leon and asked, "What exactly do you want?"

At this moment, Fibel stood up. "You want Caltacia to activate her duelist ability?"

"Yes." Li Ang nodded.

"How do you know that she definitely took away a witch?" Boudica asked.

"It must be."

Li Ang didn't explain why, perhaps he could explain after everything was over, when everyone had regained their memories and maybe he could discover the truth about the game himself.

"Do you want to sacrifice yourself and me so that they can live?" Caltacia asked hesitantly.

She naturally didn't know that deaths in this game would be settled uniformly after the game ended; she simply thought that once a vote was cast, it meant true death.

Now, faced with Li Ang's request to sacrifice himself to save others, he hesitated for a moment.

"Yes."

"Can I ask why you wanted everyone to vote you out?"

"Because I'm already on the witch's side."

Li Ang took out his identity card, and everyone then realized that the other party's identity card had changed to that of a witch.

"If you don't vote me out, this game will continue. So all of this is a necessary sacrifice."

"Mr. Li Ang..." Elena covered her mouth, moved to tears.

She never expected that the detective in front of her would be so selfless, willing to sacrifice himself to save them.

"Wow! Li Ang, are you really going to do this?" Shirley's eyes widened.

"You man..." Even Isabella hesitated, feeling ashamed as she thought about how she had doubted this man just yesterday.

"Okay. I agree."

Perhaps influenced by the atmosphere, Caltacia finally agreed.

"Then, let's begin the voting."

Helena distributed the cards to everyone.

Li Ang lowered his head, wrote his name on the card, and pushed it to Helena.

Helena took the card, glanced at it without expression, and put it back into the stack of cards.

After everyone finished voting, Helena recorded the cards one by one.

"Voting results—Leon Moriarty, four votes. Caltacia Walkerian, four votes. A tie."

"According to the rules, in the event of a tie, after excluding the votes of the tied players, the remaining players will vote in a second round. If the second round of voting also results in a tie, both players will be eliminated."

"I have no objection," Li Ang said.

The second round of voting. The cards were distributed and then collected again. Helena flipped through the cards, recording them one by one.

However, this time, there was clearly a small problem. Helena hesitated for a moment, but still immediately opened fire.

"Second round voting results—Lion Moriarty, four votes. Caltacia Walkerian, four votes. A tie."

""

As she finished speaking, a girl sitting at the round table subtly changed her expression, her fist clenching under the table.

Meanwhile, Helena continued her speech.

"Both are eliminated at the same time."

"Who are you taking away?" Helena asked, looking at Caltacia.

"I want to take it with me—"

'

Li Ang read out a name.
