Chapter 3
Arrest the killer...

Shawn Rose: Zosime, we know it's you who killed Octavia...

Zosime (shocked): Of course I didn't! You must be wrong Centurion .

Shawn: Centurion  is never wrong. You already hated Octavia for figuring out your secret. Did that made you kill her ?

Zosime: No, I would never kill anyone...

Shawn: Zosime, we know it's you. You followed Octavia to the boat after you ate some oysters for lunch.

Zosime (sweating): Oy-oyst-oysters ? How do you know that ? Did you saw me ?

Shawn: Then you argued with her, grabbed a spear and threw it to her stomach. Panicking, you dragged her body to the shore, hoping that she would get lost in water.

Zosime (crying): How do you know this ? Yes, I did killed her, but I swear it's an accident. I never wanted to.

Shawn: What happend then ?

Zosime (facepalm): You already know that Octavia found out about my pregnancy. She started blackmailing me. She wanted some kind of love potion for General Mark Antony.

Zosime: I couldn't refuse, she would eventually tell everyone about my baby and I will be embarrassed and mocked. I spent hours and days searching for all ingredients.

Zosime (mad, crying): But when I finally made it, Octavia laughed at me and called me stupid. She only wanted to make me look stupid.

Zosime: We started arguing. I was so angry...I can't believe what kind of words I said to her.

Zosime (holding her hair): Then I snapped and I threw a spear into her abdomen. I panicked so I dragged her and dumped her in water. I never wanted to do this, I swear to Zeus.

Shawn (sad): I'm sorry Zosime, but you could have turned yourself in at any time. Sadly, now it's too late. You are under arrest.

In front of Octavian...

Octavian: Well well, look who we have here. This fool killed my sister ?

Zosime: Dear Octavian, it was an accident, I swear. I never wanted to kill her...

Octavian (angry): Why didn't you told me then ? We could have saved her on time you she-demon !

Zosime (sweating): Well, I...I...

Octavian: I should punish you by throwing you into a spiky pit, but since it was accidental...

Octavian (happy): You will become General's new wife! He will be happy to hear that. Even better, he doesn't have to marry my sister. How good!

Shawn (shocked): Wait what ? You can't do that !

Octavian: YES I CAN, NOW LEAVE !

Zosime (crying): But...Centurions...
