Escape Room: Read The Precautions
First Room-Who is the Real Culprit #8
Lee Seongtae pointed to the cellphone in my hand with his chin and asked.
I froze without any response.
Seong-tae Lee
Did you see it?
Seong-tae Lee
Lee Jangjun's death.
Emma
Why... why didn't you tell me...?
My voice shook uncontrollably.
Seong-tae Lee
So, you should have accepted my confession.
Seong-tae Lee
When Lee Jangjun came out of the mental hospital,
Seong-tae Lee
I told you that if you accepted me, I would carry out the revenge alone and take all responsibility.
Seong-tae Lee
Despite all my efforts to be by your side,
The sound of a low chuckle echoed in my ears.
Seong-tae Lee
While investigating Lee Jangjun, haven't you ever thought about it?
Seong-tae Lee
Because one doesn't believe in eternal love,
Seong-tae Lee
you kill that person to preserve the love forever.
Seong-tae Lee
The Ring Finger Murderer,
Seong-tae Lee
How scared that is...
Lee Seongtae's voice, talking to me, crackled.
...The timer now showed only 10 minutes left.
Emma
(Only 10 minutes left, just 10 minutes...!)
Seong-tae Lee
Honestly, I was a bit surprised.
Seong-tae Lee
When you talked about your dream.
Seong-tae Lee
How did you know that I was going to kill you today?
Lee Seongtae laughed as if he finds it fascinating.
His smile was so creepy that a chill went down inside my clothes.
Seong-tae Lee
You never accepted me even when you knew how I felt.
Seong-tae Lee
Drawing a line that you'll never see me again once the revenge on Lee Jangjun is over.
Seong-tae Lee
I thought as soon as I saw the article about Lee Jangjun's death.
Seong-tae Lee
Now that Lee Jangjun is dead, Lee Sooah, you'll act like a man for sure.
Seong-tae Lee
...So today, I thought I had to kill you.
Is it because I'm too scared?
A tear rolled down my cheek.
Seong-tae Lee
Don't cry, Sooah.
Seong-tae Lee
Today is a happy day, isn't it?
Seong-tae Lee
Lee Jangjun is dead too.
Seong-tae Lee
You're going to be mine forever!
In that situation, with my frightened mind at a standstill,
there was only one thought in my head.
I tried my best to calm my racing heart and
I pushed Lee Seongtae, who was right in front of me, with all my strength.
Lee Seongtae stumbled and fell to the side.
I quickly ran out of the bathroom, opened the front door,
and ran away with all my might.
I couldn't even put on my shoes, so the stones hurt my feet,
and the pain of the scratches rushed in,
but I didn't look back and ran away with the single thought of surviving.
