If you shoot him, everyone’s going to think you’re a murderer, so you let him go. Besides if he planning on taking over by force like he seems to be wanting to do, he’ll show his true colors soon enough. You just have to watch your back until that time. In fact it occurs to you that you should just go tell Ron and Nina about this incident, sure they might not believe you, but it’s better than saying nothing.

The next day when you wake up, you hear a lot of commotion going outside your door.

“See?! I told you! He’s the one who did it! He dropped the bloody scalpel right in front of his door!” you hear someone say, sounds like Elliot.

You grab your gun and open up the door to a crowd of frightened onlookers. Elliot is in front of them speaking and then turns around when you come out.

“SO! The murderer finally shows his face! We both know what you did last night! I saw you! I saw you break into Ron’s room and kill him and his friend William! Then when you saw me see you, you threatened me with a gun you snuck in telling me I better keep my mouth shut or you’d kill me too! But I couldn’t stay silent! I don’t care if you do kill me! I had to warn these good people that they’re living with a psychopath!”

Elliot’s already gone through with his plan. He had to speed it up since you were a risk to tell everyone about it, but now he’s turned it to his advantage by blaming you for everything.

“WHAT?! Elliot you’re full of shit! YOU came to my room last night trying to get me in your little rebel gang! You’re the one trying to take over, not me!”
“LIAR! Who’re you gonna believe? Me? Who’s been nothing, but supportive of Ron, even when his plans weren’t exactly efficient? Or HIM? Someone who’s done nothing to help anyone, and has shown utter dislike for Ron and everyone else here?”
“It’s true! (Sob) He has always hated Ron!” Nina cries from the crowd.

You attempt to explain, protest and argue the situation, but its no good, Elliot is a master speaker, manipulator, and everyone likes him and can barely tolerate you. Feeling yourself threatened you start pointing your gun at the crowd, but even that doesn’t do any good, Elliot whips them all into a frenzy to attack you, claiming how you can’t kill all of you, of course that doesn’t stop you from killing some of them (Elliot being the first of course).

Soon you’re mobbed and the gun is taken away from you where upon someone dispenses vigilante justice and caps you in the head with it.
