Chapter 32 The Note Left by Kayako
"Good grief, does this mean I have to tear it open?"

"I feel like if you don't court death, you won't die, guys. Do you think I should court death?"

Seeing this, the audience immediately urged him to tear it open.

"Tear it! We have to tear it open! Let's see what's hidden inside!"

"Since we're already here, wouldn't it be a shame not to tear it open and take a look?"

"Don't back down, streamer! We've got your moral support!"

"Hurry, hurry, I can't wait any longer!"

"Release the seal immediately!"

Just then, a cartoon rocket flew past Akashi's eyes, and his top supporter immediately sent a rocket! Expressing his attitude through action!

Akashi's eyes lit up immediately, and he cleared his throat and began to speak, his tone deliberately serious.

"Ahem, thank you so much to our 'Godfather of Brother Chishi' for the big rocket! Boss is so generous! Boss is awesome!"

Upon seeing this, the audience and fans exclaimed, "Boss, you're being foolish!", "Boss, think it over!", "Boss, stop!"

A smile of joy spread across Chishi's face as he looked pleased with his earnings.

"Brothers, I'm tearing this up for no reason other than to satisfy your curiosity and let you all have some fun."

"Since this is the will of the people, then I shall follow it."

There was another round of urging in the live stream room.

"Stop talking nonsense! Tear it up already! Stop dawdling!"

"Exactly! The rocket is ready, stop acting, anchor!"

"Hurry up, hurry up! My pants are... cough, I mean, I'm all ready!"

The urging voices in the bullet comments almost drowned out the screen.

Without further hesitation, Brother Akaishi grabbed a corner of the tape and ripped it off forcefully!
"Thorn--!"

The thick tape made a dull tearing sound, layer after layer.

It was torn clean very quickly.

However, the terrifying scene that had been expected in the closet did not appear; it was empty, without the woman's body, only deathly silence.

"Huh? Empty?" Brother Akashi was stunned for a moment, scratching his head. "Got all this fuss, and this is all? Just sealed off the empty space?"

I thought a funny face would pop out.

As they were talking, suddenly, a document fell from above and landed in front of Brother Akashi.

He let out a soft exclamation and looked up, only to discover that there was an open square trapdoor above the closet!

Good heavens! Because it was so dark, he hadn't noticed it before. If it weren't for this document, he wouldn't have known that there was a hidden secret here!
So he picked up the document and started reading it.

He was completely stunned when he read it, a truly shocking kind of stunned!
—A piece of paper left by Kayako.

Whoever sees this note, please remember one thing: do not trust anyone in this house!

Including me!
I only have five minutes of lucidity, and I don't know when I'll be lucid again. I'll only write down the important points on the note!

My name is Kayako Kawamata, not Kayako Saeki!
I am not married. I have no children. I have no husband. It's all a lie!
I don't know anyone else in this family!
I've never even met these three people: Takeo Saeki, Toshio Saeki, and Kyuyo Saeki!

I don't know why I'm in this house, or how I became their mother and wife!
The last time I was lucid, I didn't have these two so-called children yet, so I had no idea who they were!
I tried to escape, and I succeeded!

But when I regained consciousness, I inexplicably returned.

Clearly, my body was being taken over while I was unconscious.
Perhaps I have another personality? Or... something is influencing my mind, causing me to form a family with three strangers. I guess I'll never escape.
To the person who sees this note: please don't talk to me now, that's not me! Something's not right here!
Leave as soon as possible, as soon as possible!
After reading the note, Akashi exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap!"

Wow, the amount of information here is incredible!

Kayako isn't the lady of the house? She's not even married and doesn't have any children?
Holy crap, what the hell?!
Brother Akashi read the document again carefully.

His years of gaming experience quickly helped him understand the situation.

If the document is accurate, then it means that the entire Saeki family is not a loving family.

Instead, it was a home cobbled together by the Mukov Company, which abducted four people to conduct experiments.

Assuming this conjecture is true, then Mukoff Corporation is far more terrifying than we imagine!
What methods did they use to make the female owner, Kayako, end up in this state that seems like she has amnesia?

Is it hypnosis? Brainwashing? Personality manipulation? Or some other technological force or supernatural ability?

It's hard to imagine that the idyllic family of four in the game demo was actually fake. It was four complete strangers forcibly brought together through some means.
They were completely unaware of this, only realizing it belatedly when they were fully awake.
Mukhef's actions have essentially ruined four families at once!
God knows how worried that little boy's real family must be right now.

Furthermore, if the four people are not actually a family, does that mean that Takeo Saeki's inability to find a job is also a kind of 'persona'?
Is even his name real?
The more Akashi thought about it, the more confused he felt about the game.

Mukov's influence is truly extraordinary.
"Brothers, what do you think?"

Chishi swallowed hard.

"This plot twist has left me a bit confused."

"I'm not surprised by anything that might happen next."

In the live broadcast room, viewers actively participated in the discussion.

But the comments were mostly about brainwashing or experiments, which were meaningless.

More than the identity of the female owner, Kayako, they were eager to see Akaishi climb up the trapdoor to take a look.

After all, the closet was sealed so tightly with tape, and considering the document mentioned that the female homeowner was dragged upstairs by the male homeowner, it was obvious that there was a corpse or something similar upstairs.

It all depends on whether the streamer can trigger a high-energy moment.

What they want to see is the streamer getting humiliated.

So, the matter of Kayako was put aside, and the audience urged Akaishi to climb up and take a look.

"Hurry up, streamer! There's definitely something worth slicing up here!"

"Yes, yes, yes, there must be something amazing going on if they go to such lengths to seal the closet! Streamer, go deliver it!"

"Go for it! I'll swipe my airplane card after I get on board!"

"Boss, you're being foolish! Boss, think it over! Boss, you need to control yourself!"

Seeing such enthusiastic fans, Akaishi's eyes lit up, and he felt deeply gratified.

What are ghosts compared to money? Today, we'll brave even the most dangerous places!
As long as the gift is in place, even a female ghost will have to go to the gynecologist!

So, amidst a chorus of "Go, go, go!", Brother Akashi took a deep breath and gritted his teeth as he climbed into the narrow closet.

Then, standing on the middle partition, I peered into the dark trapdoor.

At first glance, I couldn't see anything, only vaguely that it was piled with boxes and other miscellaneous goods.

He changed direction and looked again, but still found nothing special, only scattered items and deeper darkness.

But just then, the game's music changed.
