The updated list of candidates sent waves through the City. Players were not surprised by the fall in BigSoftie's vote share; rather they were astonished that both of the players were still in the top 30 after three hours!
However, BigSoftie was distressed. He could not understand why the win that was in his hands was slipping away with every passing hour. Samar had gone to great lengths to ensure his candidature and secure his win; he had to make sure nothing went wrong at the last moment.
"Romero, Poh, Mochi, any news?" BigSoftie desperately contacted his teammates on patrol. The three Tier 2s regretfully shook their heads and BigSoftie felt his heart sink.
The Natureguard then turned to the twins and their sister Sharin but he did not expect anything from them either. Just as he was prepared for disappointment, Katsu reported something.
"When I was patrolling the Southern Commercial Street polling booth, I saw Amarina there."
