Chapter Title: Please Write One Item Needed to Escape This Place. (4)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
After posting on the Gallery, I deposited all the stones I'd earned from this ghost story into my phone's DL system.
Stones: 1,232,192
[Withdraw: ] [Sell: ]
I was thrilled to see a whopping 1.23 million stones stored in my phone's DL system...
But that joy was short-lived.
"...Where's the Tier 0 Financial Institution account?"
They were supposed to give me an account once I hit 100,000 stones.
Even with 1.23 million stones in the DL system, no account notification popped up...
"Is it because... it's a phone?"
Maybe non-living things like phones don't qualify for accounts.
Or perhaps, for some reason, the Status Window wasn't functioning properly here.
"...Nah, no way."
If it was just an electronic glitch, that would be better.
I could chalk it up to something convenient, like 'Phones can borrow stones from the Tier 0 Financial Institution and ghost without paying back since there's no long-term assets to seize, so no accounts.'
But if the Status Window truly wasn't working here for some reason...?
"I was gonna ask for a delivery tomorrow..."
My plan to ask Mina to send over something explosive like butane gas from the convenience store via parcel...
"...Nah, it can't be."
Yeah.
Why would all the bad luck pile up on me?
I've been hit with nonstop bullshit so far—maybe things are finally turning around—
[Parcels aren't going through, Big Whale...]
"Ah... please, for real... why is this happening? No way, right? It's just bait, yeah...?"
[Parcels aren't going through, Big Whale...]

These clothes and items... just dropped into my house out of nowhere three days ago...?
At first, I thought maybe Big Whale just sent clothes via parcel...
But now I see—it's that ghost story where you can't take clothes or items with you...?
Anyway, now that I've confirmed Big Whale is still alive...
I tried sending the items to your H3 account via parcel... but it's not going through..
Was about to joke asking for those panties, but shit got real. So that place is where the Status Window doesn't work right?
Seems like it...
...No way, is the reason Big Whale hasn't returned not because he won't, but because he can't?
????????
Ah, no way. Seriously... no way...
...Big Whale needs to respond now...
He's sleeping... Let's let him rest and ask tomorrow.
I'd planned to stretch out and sleep properly tonight, but...
"Haa..."
It was a headache-inducing situation the more I thought about it—combined with only four hours of sleep last night and lugging around those heavy ribs to turn the first floor into a makeshift safe zone.
For now, sleep first.
...
"..."
My body was exhausted beyond belief.
I needed to sleep right now...
Was it the hard floor?
My uneasy mind?
Or the anxiety that I might never escape this place...?
"Haa... why is this happening for real..."
Or maybe all of it tormenting me at once...
How many hours had I lain there wide awake?
Before I knew it, I was picking up my phone and logging back into the Gallery.
[Gonna sleep now to sync with Big Whale's schedule]
Agreed.
Big Whale needs help. Gonna wake up every 3 hours.
Need a mod to wake me.
...How am I supposed to wake you?
Nicely.
lololololol
Lmao mod left first comment, must be baffled lolol
Damn right. Heading to bed too. Mod, wake me in 4 hours.
Like I said, how??
Nicely.
lolololololololololololol
lolololololololololololololololol
I'm really going to sleep. Night everyone, dream of Big Whale.
Mm.
Mod, got it? Wake me in 5 hours.
Then when do I sleep??
Nicely.
lololololololololol
What? Mods sleep?? How dare a 'mod'???
A chuckle escaped me at their offers to help.
I didn't know why it was funny...
"I've really been worrying like an idiot."
It hit me clear as day—all my worries were foolish.
"Gotta sleep quick. Need to if I want their help."
With so many people willing to help, how could I mope?
Snap out of it, me.
The ones who should be depressed aren't me, trapped here.
It's the monsters trapped with me.
...
"Hng... Haaah..."
I woke up refreshed, legs fully stretched out.
Morning? Who knows what time it is here.
[Big Whale Awake]
Live stream in 2 hours.
Gonna wash up, eat breakfast, jot down key 2F info on paper since I'm clearing 2F today, etc.
Will start stream after all that, in 2 hours.
Saw all the posts before bed last night.
Saw the no-parcel thing.
And the return function not working... Kinda knew already.
Records here say using return screws you, so full clear from the start!
Would be lying if I said I wasn't a bit down, but now? Whatever.
If no one was helping, I'd be depressed af.
But with this many helpers? Being down would be dumb lol
I'll get out alive for sure, so prep my welcome gifts, everyone.
Got it!!!!!!!!
