Chapter 3: Hijacking?

The person who introduced himself as Louis muttered strange things about work and then left again.

What’s going on? No matter how calmly I try to assess the situation, I can’t understand it at all.

The only possible scenario is… kidnapping?

Wait? Am I kidnapped? Are they going to kidnap a civilian and use them as a test subject for some weird drug experiment?!

As my thoughts reached that point, my imagination began to run wild.

Being imprisoned like this and being injected with strange drugs to die without a trace… like that…

Having made such a horrible imagination, I desperately began to beg for my life.

‘You crazy bastards! What did I do wrong?’
“Boo boo! Boo!”
‘Untie this, you bastards!!’
“Ugh ump!!”

Of course, I could only make “ump ump” sounds.

Someone, please untie this…! I don’t want to die like this!

• Clank.

Wait?

Knowing it wouldn’t work, I struggled again, and I realized that the restraints that seemed impossible to loosen had somehow become loose.

• Bang.

I thought I could break it with force, so I applied a little bit of strength, and it fell off my body naturally, as if it hadn’t been tied up from the beginning.

The restraints that had been so firmly fixed.

Whether something happened to the people who kidnapped me or if it was simply a manipulation error, it was a very good opportunity.

I immediately took off the blindfold that was covering my eyes.

Even if I couldn’t escape, I had to remember things that would be useful information when I was rescued.

‘Ugh, it’s so bright…!’

Perhaps because I hadn’t seen the light for a long time.

It took a considerable amount of time to adjust to the light, as it was too bright.

‘Hoo…’

As I was slowly getting used to the light, I slowly opened my eyes, which I had closed, and looked around the place where I was.

A white wall and a room where wires of unknown purpose were tangled…

Except for the wires, the room, which could be said to be empty, only had the heavy chains that seemed to have been used to bind my arms and legs, and nothing else could be seen.

And a small door, which seemed to have been visited by the person named Louis a moment ago, was all there was to this room.

…No, wait a minute.

I’ve seen this room somewhere before.

Abnormality, work… empty room.

There was a game my friend used to play that had these three things at the same time.

The name is… Oh, that’s right!

‘Lobotomy Corporation!’
“Ump!”

Ah, I still haven’t taken off the tape on my mouth.

“Ouch… it hurts so much…”

The tape was fixed firmly, having been attached for a long time.

It hurt a lot when I took it off, but it doesn’t seem to hurt that much after…

It does not. It hurts a lot.

“Ugh… ah…”

Wait, wait a minute?! No, isn’t something strange? Suddenly, I feel like I’m going to cry from the pain?!

…

…

After struggling with the sudden pain from the tape, when the pain subsided to some extent.

“Ugh… what the… huh?”

It didn’t take long to realize the small change that had occurred to my body.

It was a state where something with a very big presence had disappeared, even though it was a small change.
