As of right now, everyone from the viewing platforms and every participant in the play area had a mix of reactions, but aside from me and a few that already figured out the small trick, the twins were also wearing a cheeky smile.
'I knew it...'
Even if they didn't confirm nor deny my team's theory about the correct answer, the looks they were giving us were already more of a give-away.
Furthermore, it was like they weren't the scaredy-cats that were trying to get away from Quinn's wrath earlier, but instead, their excited and 'showman' expressions were on display for everyone to see.
In any case, Ruru kept the plugs inside a cute little case while Riri placed her mic towards Tatiana and Katya.
[So~ What is your answer?]
The two just looked at each other before Katya shrugged her shoulders as Tatiana leaned over to the mic.
[They belong to each of you, correct?]
[Ding! Ding! Ding!]
[Your answer is correct~!]
[Not only did the Ishiyama Family get a point in their belt, but they also won the bonus for guessing who owned our plugs— which we will reveal now!]
At this moment, jolly music accompanied the twins as they talked, but in my opinion, the prizes for winning the first game weren't as useful as I thought. But free stuff was free stuff so I shouldn't complain as much.
[The prizes are as follows:]
[Since the Rivas Family and the Ishiyama Family won, starting tomorrow, they would each receive 5% of the proceeds from the Pink House!]
[Isn't that great?!]
[FURTHERMORE!!!]
[We all know that the golden coins from Mr. Cuervo had certain 'benefits' or titillating 'rewards' when it comes to our place of work, but fret not! The head of each respective family that won will be given the opportunity to grant two other people—and themselves—their very own VIP Pass!]
[That means~ the people holding those passes will be serviced by the Pink House for as much as they wanted, and you'll be able to take home an 'entertainer' of your choice for a week! But, if you took too long to get them back, your passes will be revoked and you'll have to pay them extra for each hour they aren't in our house!]
With that said, if the winner was living in Mr. Cuervo's residence or somewhere close, it would've been perfect but I wasn't. Sure, Ilya and the rest were living here and Irene and her group were only a short drive away from this place, but the people or the groups who were stationed a ways away would be at a little disadvantage.
'Giving away shares of the proceeds of one of his businesses is great and all but it would still benefit Mr. Cuervo in the long run... If more people were to stay here and or closeby to have access to his facilities— due to the way he's growing his empire, the 10% would be negligible...'
Everyone else had a mix of reactions to the rewards but the twins turned to Katya and Tatiana.
The music was replaced with something appropriate while my team gulped in anticipation, then the twins leaned even closer to the two before opening their mouths.
Like Mr. Cuervo and most of the heads, his hair was slicked back while strands of white invaded the side of his head, but instead of having a thin mustache, he was sporting a well-trimmed chinstrap that could almost hide the scar on his neck.
Furthermore, he was almost always looking slightly down— almost as if he was trying to hide the long gash below his chin, but despite all that, the smile he was wearing was genuine.
He cheerfully waved and bowed to each of the heads on the viewing platform—including me—and he even gave me a short congratulations for 'winning' the twins from the first game.
'I hope he's not this game's bonus prize...'
With that said, he seemed to be listening to something from his earpiece but he just nodded a few times before he faced the cameras.
[HAHAHA! WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE SECOND GAME DESIGNED BY YOURS TRULY AND IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I AM YET, I'M JUST THE FUCKING GUY THAT MADE OUR SPECIALTY BEER! JIMMY'S CERVEZAS!]
Cheers erupted for the second time but our fucking guy continued.
[I KNOW, I KNOW, I JUST TOOK OVER THE BREWERY CLOSE BY BUT THE RECIPE I'M USING IS MY OWN! And u-uh... if you know someone who could change the design so it doesn't say SMB every single time would be great— Ah, MOVING ON!]
[I'LL LEAVE THE REWARDS FOR LATER BUT THIS GAME WOULD NEED FIVE MEMBERS FROM EACH FAMILY! I GUESS THE SHARP ONES AMONG YOU COULD PROBABLY GUESS THE NEXT GAME BUT BEFORE I EXPLAIN THE RULES, I NEED THE FIVE MEMBERS RIGHT FUCKING NOW! I'LL COUNT TO FIVE!]
At this point, I didn't even need to assign participants because almost everybody volunteered as tribute.
The first one who stood up was Mikhail, followed by Bogdan, then Ilya, and to my surprise, Artem. I thought Nikolas or Alexei would decide between themselves as to who would be the fifth member but they both sat down when Jose stood up with a huge smile across his face.
It was almost unsettling the way he was eyeing the kegs of beer below but one of Quinn's crew grabbed his shoulder.
"Bro, they already went down. Where are you going?"
Jose never looked so confused, "Hah?"
"Aren't you— Holy fucking shit, I thought you were one of us!"
"..."
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
As soon as that happened, Jose looked like he was about to kill me because I talked him into getting multiple tattoos to 'blend' in. However, he did blend in a little too much because he would always get mistaken to be a member of the de Leon Family.
With that said, my group eventually made their way with the other groups and they were made to wear colored bandanas with the same pattern as the flags.
Looking at each of them, it seemed like everyone got the memo because only huge guys that could hold their own were the ones that joined except for Quinn that was towering over some of them. Her partner wasn't even included in the second game but if drinking was involved, I doubt Quinn would've passed it up.
'If only drinking was the game... I've seen a version of this in Texas...'
With that said, the Jimmy guy couldn't hide his excitement when the participants were waiting for his orders, and he just smiled brightly before speaking on the microphone. It crackled shortly before a screeching feedback resounded but it was immediately fixed by the sound guys.
[Alright, what we're doing is the Cuervo Heights Beer Relay!]
