"You know who the murderer is? What a joke! Isn't it the Ceberus?" Akira asked.

"I have evidence that the so-called guard-dog of hell, Ceberus, does not exist. Alice, you have a dog yourself, what is the worst part about keeping a dog?"

"Hmmm. I think it is to clear up his waste."

"Thank you. Of course, a dog will eat, and shit. But have we found any dog poo in this building?" Kyu explained. "The real murderer, wants to divert our attention away, so he created the imaginary beast, Ceberus. I repeat again, the real murderer is amongst us."

"Who is it?"

"The answer lies within this…" Ryu said as he pointed to the tray of fruits on the table. "This is John's dying message. Two kiwis, three small pears, one big fuji apple and one winter melon, and not to forget, the tomato squashed under a tomato."

"What?"

"Minus the people who died, the number of fruits is exactly the number of people. If each of these fruits represent one of us, the water melon is the killer, and John himself is the tomato. The rest of the fruits is us. And the arrangement goes like this. Akira and Alice, the two kiwis. Kinta, Kazuma, and Kyu are the three pears. Megumi is the Fuji apple… Do you guys see the pattern?"

"Pattern… Alphabetical order!" Akira remarked.

"Correct! The smaller the fruit, the earlier the alphabet! Thus those starting with letter "A" will be kiwis. And the biggest fruit will be for…"

"Zesuke?" Everybody whispered in unison.

"Yes, the real murderer is you, Zesuke!"

"What the hell! Why would I kill people I hardly know?"

"No! You knew them all along didn't you? You were holding the torch light, and YOU led us here." Megumi said.

"Hey, then what's with the dogs? You think they'll listen to me? I got bitten!"

"Of course, you are the trainer! The whistle that Kyu picked up, is a dog whistle, isnt it? You trained the dogs!" Kazuma retorted.

"But I wasn't blowing the whistle when I was bitten ok? You think I can have telepathy with dogs and ask them to bite me?"

"The whistle was hidden in your bread isnt it?" Meg asked.

"Fine. But I have an alibi! Meg was taking care of me when Kosuke was killed, right?"

"That's the trick. Everyone, Kosuke was supposed to be killed when we were blocking all the entrances right? Let me ask you, which one of you saw him?"

Silence.

"But somebody did right?" Alice asked.

"Yes. That someone is Zesuke himself. He made that statement, and indirectly lured us into thinking that Kosuke was with us all along." Kyu said. "Then he made it in such a way that it looked like Kosuke died while nailing the window of the bathroom."

"Hey, but what if we didn't seal the windows? Wouldn't it be weird then?"

"Everything is in his control. Recall, who is the one who told us to seal the windows? Zesuke himself. And the evidence is clear. Come with me."

All of them walked towards a door.

"Look at the shiny nails, if they had been here all along, shouldn't it be old and rusty? This shows that its prepared deliberately."

"And he was the one who said that he saw Kosuke shaving. And look, his contact lenses are still in its cases. Is it possible that Kosuke went shaving and nailing without his contact lenses on?" Kinta asked.

"Zesuke, admit please… You are forcing me." Kinta said as he pulled the planks out of a window and climbed out. All the dogs charged towards him.

"Kinta!" All of them screamed.

All of a sudden, the dogs stopped. And behind them, was Zesuke blowing the dog whistle.

"Yes. It is me… I did it for revenge. All of them, they killed my girlfriend. She stayed in their hospital, and they killed her!"

"Arent they doctors? You cannot blame them for being unable to save your girlfriend!" Kazuma said.

"I would rather they did nothing. But they… they experimented on her! They gave her their trial medicines, and treated her like a guinea pig! Am I cruel? Compared to those who experimented on humans? These dogs are hers. She was their trainer, she picked up those stray dogs, nursed them back to health and took care of them. Such a kind person, killed by those devils!"

"Then what do you think you are? They are cruel no doubt. But do you think your girlfriend, such a kind person will want you to kill? Look at those dogs! I bet they want you to stop too!"

At that moment, Zesuke saw his girlfriend, afar, telling him to stop.

"Everything is over…" Zesuke whispered.

All of them left that forest, feeling empty and sad.
