Chapter 6 – New Year’s Masked Ball


Everybody gathered in the lobby of the hotel to decide about who they thought killed Snowflake.
“It definitely appears the killer is doing people in order of post count”, joncha said.
“That one is almost sure”, Hercules added, “but where do we search for our killer? Amongst those with very few posts who might be envious of resentful? Or simply hate spammers? They are our best bet.”
“So, Hercules, you think Sandman did it”, Kassiopeia asked. “I think that too.”
“Not necessarily”, Hercules replied. “If Sandman were the killer, it would be immensely stupid to kill in this order knowing he would be accused of the crime given his posting habits. No! I believe this to be the work of a more calculated killer, someone driven by the same motifs of course, but someone with higher post count, definitely a king, not an emperor, someone like Ben Kenobi or Jon Miller.”

Ben Kenobi was offended by this sudden accusation.
“I could never kill anyone. It’s not in my nature. I’m an ardent Christian and a pacifist.”
“We know you are Ben”, joncha said, “that’s why I suspect Jon Miller now, after Hercules’s analysis.”
“I second that”, Ben Kenobi replied.

Jon Miller became concerned about the new alarming development. He knew all too well what piles look like from playing Mafia at Poly so many times.
“Now wait a moment. Stop piling me and listen to what I have to say. If you see reason in it, then you won’t pile me at all.”

The others stopped arguing for a moment and listened to what Jon Miller had to say.
“Suppose the killer is following Hercules’s pattern. Suppose he’s killing in order of post count. Would it be logical for someone from the bottom of that list to start killing like that? He would be target for docpiles very soon if he did anything like that.”
“What’s your point”, Spaced Cowboy was impatient.
“In fact, it is more logical that the killer is someone from the middle of that list. Imagine the situation, we execute Sandman now, then the killer kills again, DarkCloud’s the victim this time, then we execute, Ben Kenobi or me, then…”

Jon Miller couldn’t finish his sentence because Whoha interrupted him.
“Then the killings stop.”

“Let’s vote people”, DarkCloud suggested. “After all, it’s my life at stake here.”

Sandman received an overwhelming number of votes including his own.

“Having sense of guilt now, eh Sandman? It won’t help you anyway, you’re going to see your maker”, Jonny said.

And Sandman, like –Jrabbit before him died a terrible death buried alive in the sand.

*******

That evening was the New Year’s Eve and the Apolytoners decided to use the Aussie suite for a party once again – this time a masked ball.

Nikolai disguised himself as sheep, Hercules wore his dark grey overcoat and Sherlock Holmes’s hat he got as Christmas present, Kassiopeia cross-dressed himself as Porsche Lyn, famous porn star, joncha wore Stalin’s mask, Adagio wore clown’s costume and Jonny was the spitted image of Marlon Brando. He even had some pillows under his clothes tied around his body to look bigger.

Spaced Cowboy and reismark were dressed like Caribbean pirates, though Spaced Cowboy had white wig and beard and reismark had red.

Ben Kenobi arrived dressed as the Pope and Whoha came in Darth Vader’s costume. Boy it sure was hot to wear that one, but it did cover his entire body.

Tuberski was disguised as Admiral Nelson, Theben played the role of Roman Emperor Nero with his lyre and purple toga. Jon Miller played British General Cornwallis from the American War of Independence wearing his red coat. Red was his favourite colour after all. DarkCloud dressed himself as Zeus, with his white robe and long white beard and a thunder wand.

The crew drank and had fun until early hours.

*******

The next morning when Nikolai woke up he saw a ghastly scene. His room-mate DarkCloud was lying dead in his bed. All of his bodily cavities were filled with fruit: His nostrils with two cherries, his mouth with a lemon and then an orange and his anus with a banana. DarkCloud died of suffocation. There was no sign of struggle. DarkCoud was an easy prey because of his intoxication. No wonder Nikolai heard nothing either since he too was zonked after last night New Year’s party.

Ahh. Who's next on the list?

A word to the mafia. If you skip the next person, and go with the person that is after him, you can almost be sure that the one you skipped would be your scapegoat in the next voting.

Two bad I'm dead, this is quite entertaining.

Very clever misdirection, Snowflake.
Now we know you're guilty.

Regret that you have spammed too much in the past now, don't you? (I'd say it's more than two bad you are dead, though. )
