After half a minute of silence, Mr. Henry Mafal, who was constantly wiping his sweat, finally couldn't help but speak:
"Alright, I admit."
"Hmm?"
Now it was Shard's turn to be surprised, because the murderer was not this gentleman who had just invited him to play cards.
"I admit, I went to that corridor because I had arranged a date with a girl. Yes, I actually have a childhood friend, but my father always plans my marriage. At home, I never actively opposed any of my father's instructions, but only this matter, only this matter..."
He seemed to be somewhat collapsing, crying while covering his face, and then suddenly shouted:
"Oh, I love you, Emily, yes, I love you. Now I need to say these words, tomorrow I'm going to propose to you, I can't bear this concealment any longer."
