Chapter 121 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

Chapter 121

On the final morning at the Horizon Mountain Lodge, the civil servant (an agent of the Disaster Management Bureau) wakes to find the living room covered in blood and a pentagram made of severed body parts. An unconscious woman, the wife of one of the lodge's guests, lies on a sofa. The agent, dressed in a black raincoat and wielding a large butcher knife, prepares to fulfill his role as the designated serial killer. He reflects on the chaos of the past three days: his intended target was already dead in a stove, and he discovered shredded remains of students in the backyard, realizing someone else had been preemptively killing victims. As he prepares to strike the woman, Kim Soleum interrupts him from the second-floor railing. Kim reveals that the agent does not need to kill anyone because the 'murders' were staged. Kim explains that the 'corpses' were actually preserved body parts from the lodge's basement used to create a psychological illusion of death. Kim notes that while some deaths (an allergy and a landslide) were real, they were caused by individuals who were criminals. The agent, realizing Kim is not a typical civilian, listens as Kim explains the plan to manipulate the 'inheritance fight' through fear rather than actual bloodshed.
