### Summary
Based on the reader reactions, the current chapter depicts a high-stakes police interrogation of Yoon Bum. The officers employ a deceptive tactic, informing Bum that Sangwoo has confessed to everything regarding Jieun's murder. Readers overwhelmingly interpret this as a manipulative lie designed to pressure Bum into confessing himself, recognizing it as a common interrogation strategy. The police are heavily criticized for their unethical conduct, including forcibly collecting Bum's saliva and hair samples without consent or a warrant, treating him inhumanely, and shockingly revealing his location to his abusive uncle, Jae Yoon. This results in Jae Yoon arriving at the station, causing immense terror for Bum and reader outrage. Bum is portrayed as psychologically vulnerable, trapped by Stockholm syndrome and his traumatic past, leaving readers intensely anxious that he might fall for the police trick and confess, believing Sangwoo has already done so. The chapter emphasizes Bum's continued victimization by both the system and his abusers.
