Chapter 25

Chapter 25, called "To Leave Behind" is the eighth chapter of Arc 2 of Exit/Corner.

Synopsis
Locked into the third Corner, Liza speaks to her father over her Gemini for a while. When she finds out that her father is planning on liquidating the company, she disposes of her Gemini and plans on staying behind to sacrifice herself, saying that she won't suffer for long - she plans on taking one of the cyanide pills she took from Rae.

Upon seeing this, Sean instead volunteers to stay behind, putting his hand on the scanner before the others have a chance to say anything. Ink and Sean speak for a few moments, with Sean admitting to not really loving this idea, but he also doesn't want Liza to die angry.

Ink leaves and Rae notices that Sean is gone, asking what happened. Ink merely replies that Sean is staying behind - permanently. Rae admits he won't miss Sean, as he didn't know him too well, but he feels sorry for Ink, knowing that he saw Sean as a close friend.

Shortly after Ink solves the puzzle from the room where Beth died and following the advice of the voice in his head, Ink deduces the fact that Beth was murdered by one of the Contestants.
