Revenge After Death

Yasmin collapsed onto the ground, her face as white as a sheet. She had no energy to explain.

"I already said that the elevator wasn't safe..."

"It must be her. She's the most suspicious among us," Rachel snarled. She raised a foot as if she was going to kick Yasmin. Yasmin dived into Michael's arms in fear, to which Michael looked at me out of reflex.

I didn't bother to respond. I got up and touched the wall.

"Rachel Qualls, stop trying to stir the pot. You just think that I killed Stephanie Carlson! Why don't you reflect on yourself?

"You and Zion are suspicious too. You were dead, but now you're alive!" Yasmin refuted angrily, clinging to Michael's arm as she spoke. "Michael, don't believe in what she said. It isn't me."

Yasmin seemed to be having an emotional breakdown. She was crying desperately.

I looked at her and said, "You can cry louder. That way, we'll die even sooner."

Yasmin glared at me as if she wished for me to die.

But right now, she simply seemed like a joke to me.

"If the culprit is among us, then it's good news," I said calmly, consoling everyone.

"At the very least, they wouldn't be seeking death. That also means... the mastermind won't let us fall to death in the elevator."

I knew Yasmin wouldn't have taken part in planning the killing game. It was because she didn't have what it took.

My words successfully pacified the group. Quinn quietened down and hugged Rachel.

The elevator went down slowly. It stopped on the seventh floor, which was in pitch-black darkness. There was no light. "Well, none of that was in vain. We skipped quite a few floors, going from the 13th floor to the seventh floor," said Eason. He was trying to lighten the mood, but he dared not be the first to step out.

Joel glanced at Eason, who was clinging to his arm.
