"Interesting. Who would have thought there would be an oriole stalking the cicada and the mantis all this while?"
Lucas stood up and glanced at the speaker. Right away, he proceeded to sigh.
"I should have expected it."
"Oh, you're not surprised?" Canza raised an eyebrow.
That's right. The newcomer as well as the individual who assaulted Lucas and prevented his escape was Canza; the very man everyone else thought was dead. But as it now turned out, he was alive and well.
"I'm guessing you planned to maintain your cover until a winner was decided, but the landslide ruined your plans, so you adapted. You took advantage of the chaos and sneaked out to block the only possible exit, waiting for the very first individual to leave. This way, no matter who wins and departs first, you can ambush them as soon as they leave —the very moment they would least expect anything." Lucas uttered his deduction as he stared at Canza.
