🛑 YOU ARE NOT THE MURDERER.

But you were the first to hear Red after he died.
And now he won’t stop talking.


Additional Backstory:

Channel 3 went dark after 1987. Only Red had the override code. You kept that channel closed until the day after his body was found.

It activated itself.

You heard faint static. Then a voice. Red’s voice. He said:

“Still here. It’s not sealed. They’ll come again.”

You saved the file. Then the system auto-erased it.
But the timestamp remained.

3:17 AM.
Two hours after Red was pronounced dead.


New Motivation:

Trace the signal. Verify the voice. Figure out who the second voice in the tape belongs to… and why it was crying.


Clue You Possess:

  • A hand-labeled cassette tape (or flash drive) with “3:17AM RED?” scrawled on it

  • A broken headset with dried blood on the cushion — no one knows whose

  • A Log of Frequencies Link you’ve been keeping since Red’s death**,

  • Deposit Cores are hidden around the room,

You keep the list on you at all times.
You swear the pattern looks like a heartbeat.
But only when the lights flicker.
