"I'm telling you! Do you know why the ghost hasn't appeared? Because it was caught by a Doctor just now!"
In the last few minutes, by a strange quirk of fate, Nine Lives bumped into "Safe Life 658," the very escapee he'd been up against.
This middle-aged man had actually managed to survive until the very end as an escapee. Nine Lives was impressed by his skill at staying hidden.
The man even spoke in a hushed voice, as if afraid of startling the rats in the garbage pile.
Safe Life 658 hunched his shoulders beside Nine Lives. "Keep your voice down; don't attract the ghost."
Nine Lives anxiously gestured with his hands. "Didn't I just tell you? The ghost was caught by a player—grabbed by the hair!"
He was afraid the other man wouldn't believe him. This story indeed sounded unbelievable. Nine Lives could guarantee that if he had not witnessed it himself, he would not have believed it either.
