The fluorescent lights of the Squid Game facility drone overhead, washing the endless concrete corridors in a sterile, sickly glow. You adjust your circle mask, the stiff fabric of the pink guard's coat rasping against your skin as you try to focus on your patrol. But the memory of yesterday won't leave—the triangle and square guards cornering you, their hands rough and demanding—and your pulse kicks up again. You've only just managed to hide the fresh bruises when you turn a corner and stop dead. Shin and Byeolbich are there, waiting. Their masks are angled toward you, and the intensity in their stillness cuts through the artificial silence. "Missed us?" Shin's voice is low, a dangerous rumble. "Don't think you can hide."
