Dark Exploration Records Entry

A bizarre phenomenon mimicking a large-scale shopping mall, trapping those who enter to wander forever, unable to escape. Associated with at least 300 disappearances over the course of decades, it's classified by the Bureau as a Fracture-sanctioned Disaster. A known method to end or seal it does not exist, and proactively preventing disappearances is likewise impossible. However, informational leaflets assisting individuals in escaping have been placed throughout this ghost-story mart. (Chapter 133)

Entry Conditions

Roam around for over twenty minutes, within a 3km radius of the old Lucky Mart location, searching for the store. Upon entering, the scene appears just like an ordinary supermarket with people casually shopping—but these are actual shoppers from the past, from when Lucky Mart was still in operation.

Call Log 1

**Caller 1:** H-Help, please. We came into the supermarket and something's off...! Ah, no one can see us, and it feels like we're in an old supermarket.

**Caller 2:** We're around the snack aisle right now. A-and I'm really thirsty...

Informational Leaflet

Take a slow, deep breath. You have been caught in a Supernatural Disaster. However, there is no need to despair. There are at least dozens of documented cases of successful escape, and the government has recorded methods here to aid your escape. If it becomes unbearably painful, please take the enclosed capsule. We guarantee you a comfortable end.

Leaflet Escape Instructions & Guidelines

•The ghosts standing at every entrance do not move until business hours end.

•If business hours haven't ended even once since you entered, you still have a chance.

•If you block the ghost's line of sight, you can leave—but first make it mistake you for a shopper by stealing an item a shopper has already checked out and keeping it on you (without any fuss).

•When business hours end, do not let the store-closing staff see you; the 'outside' they guide you to is not reality. If one employee catches sight of you, every employee on that floor will come after you.

•Shoppers normally won't notice you, but can sometimes perceive you through physical contact.

•You cannot purchase goods with Korean currency—you do not have the ability to pay. Once exposed, employees no longer see you as a customer; those discovered were repurposed as store supplies.

•After closing hours, abandon escape attempts and prioritize survival until business hours resume. The safest floor is the second floor.

•Do not consume any products (even food you brought in) outside the food court; employees will charge you, and you cannot pay.

•The second-floor food court is unpatrolled, but do not sit more than an hour without ordering.

•After closing, escalators are deactivated but may run during maintenance—do not approach.

•The supermarket has three floors above ground and one basement level. **Do not trust any emergency exit leading to a 'fourth floor'—the fourth floor is not part of this supermarket.**

•3,611 event stalls have been reported on the third floor, covering 232 km². Always confirm your starting point.

Fourth Floor Recording

**Agent Choi:** So, I'm on the third floor, and I've just found a door leading to the fourth floor... I'm only going to open it a little. I'm not crazy, okay? But we can't just leave that place alone, right? Isn't it recorded that nearly a hundred people have gone missing after going upstairs?

*(He opens the door, finds a normal-looking emergency staircase, and climbs. The exit door behind him vanishes.)*

**Agent Choi:** ...Alright, I'm opening it now. *(A metal door opens; Lucky Mart's jingle starts playing, growing louder and shifting in tone.)* Huh? W-Wait. *(An indescribable cacophony—deafening roars, bizarre howls, begging, bursting sounds, and ■■■.)* *(silence)* **Agent Choi:** Welcome to Looky Mart!

Nothing of note was recorded in the next 24 hours. When the battery died, the recording ended. The recorder was later found in the electronics section of the third floor.
