The ghost story taxi calls for us. Beyond the shop's front door.
Honk, honk—
If we board it and follow the manual properly, we can definitely get to Seoul Station... The problem is figuring out how to get into that taxi.
'It's parked outside the shop's main door.'
That's precisely why I sought out a shop with a front door—because the alleys of Death Lane are too narrow for a taxi to stop.
'So, to hail and board the taxi, we need to step beyond the front door...' But there's no telling what kind of scenery will unfold outside that door, nor whether Lee Jaheon and I will make it out unscathed.
That's why I prepared a countermeasure. Using a product from this shop.
'I planned to stop by here anyway, and since this shop has a front door, it's killing two birds with one stone.'
I swallowed hard.
"Squad Leader, let's proceed as planned."
"Yes."
