I Wish I Hadn't Looked Into THE RED LIGHT CURSE

Short filmTranscript
00:00:02Ever's the day we were trapped in the snow-covered mountains, mom has called me a liar.
00:00:08Not because I actually lied, but because of this thing on my wrist, the thermal monitoring bracelet.
00:00:17My mother Grace is obsessed with technology.
00:00:20The one belief she holds above all else is that data never lies.
00:00:31In an environment like this, every single calorie must be used where it matters most.
00:00:36Anyone showing a red light gets no food for the day.
00:00:43Mine is green.
00:00:46Your bracelet is red! You're recklessly consuming the last remaining calories in this house!
00:00:52Mom, I only had a cup of water this morning. I really don't know why it's red!
00:00:57Shut up!
00:00:59Your body has excess heat. You don't deserve any rations today.
00:01:05Mom, I'm really cold and hungry.
00:01:08The machine doesn't lie, Chloe.
00:01:12From that day on, those words became the most unquestionable truth in that cabin.
00:01:16The red light on my bracelet became like a curse.
00:01:19It declared me over-consuming heat every single day.
00:01:22At noon that day, mom distributed the food. Anna got a larger portion because her bracelet was green.
00:01:27She needs to replenish energy. Mine was pitifully small because my bracelet was flashing red.
00:01:33Mom, I haven't eaten anything. I'm really hungry.
00:01:38Chloe, machines don't lie. Just to get an extra bite, you're actually trying to deceive me.
00:01:42Look at your sister Anna. Her bracelet is always green.
00:01:45She'd rather stay hungry than steal even a scrip of food. And you, you're a thief!
00:01:48I didn't take any food. I really didn't.
00:01:52If you didn't steal anything, then why did I find the last piece of missing from the storage room this
00:01:58morning?
00:01:58I didn't take it!
00:02:10I ate it.
00:02:13She ate it! It's totally Anna! She just told me!
00:02:17Mom, I didn't! Sister, why are you accusing me?
00:02:22Mom, my bracelet is green. How could I have stolen the chocolate?
00:02:31Not only are you selfish enough to steal food, you even viciously frame your own sister!
00:02:38How did I end up with such a cruel daughter?
00:02:52Mom, I didn't lie. It really wasn't me. Please, just believe me this once. Just once.
00:03:00No. Even just a fraction of the tenderness she showed when she looked at Anna.
00:03:08Mom, I really didn't lie to you. Please believe me this time. I'm your daughter.
00:03:15Look at it yourself. Red. Chloe, it's red. It shows excess calories. If you didn't steal food, then who did?
00:03:21Your sister's bracelet is green. She can barely even stand. How could she possibly steal anything?
00:03:26I have to punish a lying child like you.
00:03:37I was wrong. I won't lie again. Mom, please.
00:04:01Mom, will my sister freeze lying there?
00:04:04Her? She won't freeze. Her bracelet is red. She's got excess heat.
00:04:08Anna, don't be like her. Be an honest child.
00:04:14My heart felt like it was being clenched by an icy hand, the pain so intense I could barely breathe.
00:04:21I didn't even have the strength to struggle anymore. My forehead began to burn with heat. Even my breath carried
00:04:28an abnormal warmth.
00:04:30Grace, Chloe doesn't look well. Her face is too red. Could she have a fever? Maybe we should give her
00:04:36some hot water?
00:04:38David, her bracelet is red. This isn't a fever. She secretly ate chocolate and her body temperature rose because of
00:04:45excess calories.
00:04:47She fooled you.
00:04:51You're still lying. Pretending to be sick to gain my sympathy? Looks like you need a real lesson.
00:04:57You're going to the attic right now to reflect on your mistakes.
00:05:10Mom, I really didn't steal the chocolate. I didn't lie.
00:05:24Mom, don't lock me in here. I'll die.
00:05:30When you figure it out, when you admit you stole the chocolate and your bracelet turns green, I'll let you
00:05:36out. Otherwise, you can stay here forever and reflect.
00:05:55Chloe, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted you.
00:06:02Back then, she loved me too, didn't she?
00:06:14Grace, maybe we should let Chloe out. She hasn't eaten anything today.
00:06:18I had Anna bring her some bread.
00:06:20I wanted to say no one had brought me anything, but the words got stuck in my throat because I
00:06:26knew he wouldn't believe me.
00:06:40Big sister, are you cold? Are you hungry? Don't you really want some hot water and a biscuit?
00:06:47Anna, I'm so cold and hungry. Please give me the water and the biscuit.
00:06:52Give it to you?
00:06:57Oh, right. I almost forgot to tell you. That chocolate? I was the one who ate it. So sweet. So
00:07:02delicious.
00:07:03Too bad you didn't get any. But what can you do? Your core shack is red. Mom only believes me,
00:07:08not you.
00:07:09Want a drink? Then beg me. Say you're a liar that you stole the chocolate. Say it and I'll let
00:07:15you drink.
00:07:16Oops. My hand slipped. Sorry, big sister.
00:07:22I looked at the board beneath me as it frozen solid. Suddenly, I couldn't feel my feet anymore.
00:07:26The dizziness from the fever grew stronger and stronger. My vision blurred.
00:07:30I could clearly feel it, my body heat slipping away little by little, my life draining out of me.
00:07:33But I still couldn't accept it. I still hadn't lived to see the day Mom believed me.
00:07:38Mom, I'm so cold. I'm so hungry. I really didn't lie. Please believe me. Just once. Please.
00:07:45Dad, save me. I'm going to die. Dad!
00:07:50Music started playing downstairs. It was the deafening Symphony No. 5.
00:07:55The intense, surging music instantly drowned out my faint cries for help.
00:07:59The sound of me pounding on the floor completely swallowed them.
00:08:02She knew I was calling for help. She heard me. She just didn't want to listen.
00:08:07With that thunderous music, she blocked her own ears and completely cut off my last path to survival.
00:08:13My hands stopped pounding. In that moment, all my strength, all my hope, all my unwillingness vanished.
00:08:20I was so hungry. So cold. But Mom would never believe me. She would only believe the bracelet.
00:08:28The machine doesn't lie. What a ridiculous sentence.
00:08:33I don't know how much time passed. My body stopped trembling.
00:08:37Instead, a strange warmth began to spread across my skin.
00:08:40A false, burning sensation, as if I were no longer cold.
00:08:43I raised my hand and looked at my little finger, frozen to a purplish blue.
00:08:47Without a single ripple in my heart, I bent it forcily. Crack. A faint snapping sound.
00:08:51My little finger broke, but I felt no pain at all. So this is what it's like when a person
00:08:55is freezing to death.
00:08:56You really feel nothing. Mom. I thought again of when I was very young.
00:09:00Venster. Her embrace was so her warm. Her smile was so gentle.
00:09:04I want to go back to that time. I want Mom to hug me just once more.
00:09:08February 14th. 7th day of the blizzard. Mom found the chocolate missing.
00:09:11She said I stole it. It wasn't me, Anna ate it. My bracelet turned red.
00:09:16Mom hit me, shocked me with the bracelet, took my blanket and gave it to Anna. I'm so cold.
00:09:23Chloe, come here. Let Mom hug you.
00:09:31I felt weightless. I looked down. I was floating. And there, below me, I saw myself lying on that frozen
00:09:37pile of cardboard.
00:09:38My right hand was missing a little finger. The dead girl's wrist was still flashing red.
00:09:42Oh. Oh. I'm dead.
00:09:45I looked down. My body was still curled up on the freezing wooden floor.
00:09:48The thermal monitoring bracelet was still tightly fastened around my lifeless purplish wrist.
00:09:53The red light continued flashing tirelessly, reflecting on my pale, expressionless face. Eerie and ironic.
00:09:59I was dead. I died at the age of 10 in a blizzard in the Alps, locked in a freezing
00:10:04attic by my mom I loved most, frozen to death.
00:10:06I hovered there, looking at my own corpse. I didn't cry. I wasn't afraid.
00:10:10There was only a vast, lifeless calm inside me, like a nightmare that had lasted 10 years, finally ending.
00:10:15My soul passed through the attic door like a gust of wind, without the slightest resistance.
00:10:20I drifted down the stairs, into the living room. Mom, Dad, and Anna were gathered around the table by the
00:10:27fire, smiles on their faces.
00:10:29Smiles I hadn't seen in a long time. The satellite phone on the table was lit.
00:10:34I heard it. Just moments ago, Mom had gotten through to the rescue team.
00:10:39They said the blizzard had weakened. In two days, they would be able to fly up in a helicopter and
00:10:44take us down the mountain.
00:10:45We were saved, except me. I died three days before the rescue arrived. I died just as the storm was
00:10:53about to end.
00:10:53That's great! We can finally leave this awful place! Mom, I want cake! Don't we still have that emergency cream
00:11:00cake in storage? I want to eat it now!
00:11:03Alright.
00:11:08That cake Dad had bought it for me before we came to the mountains. I couldn't bear to eat it,
00:11:12so I hid it deep in the storage room.
00:11:14I wanted to wait until the blizzard ended, then take it out and share it with Mom, Dad, and my
00:11:19sister.
00:11:20I had even drawn a picture of our family on the box and written the words,
00:11:24I love Mom.
00:11:27Eat slowly. No one's going to take it from you.
00:11:31Hmm.
00:11:32When we get down the mountain, I'll buy you a bigger, even better cake.
00:11:37I floated in front of them, watching this warm, joyful scene.
00:11:41And somewhere where my heart should have been, there was pain.
00:11:45Oh, right. Chloe is still locked in the attic. Since rescue is coming soon, maybe we should let her out.
00:11:52Let her have something to eat. She's been locked up for two days.
00:11:57She's been locked up for two days! She should have learned her lesson!
00:12:10My breath stopped instantly. Was she going to the attic? Was she going to see me? Was she finally going
00:12:17to discover that I was dead?
00:12:22Chloe.
00:12:26Chloe, come out and eat!
00:12:28No response.
00:12:30I'm inside! I can't answer you! I'm already dead! If you open the door, you'll see my body! I'm already
00:12:38dead!
00:12:39I looked at Mom with sorrow. If she found out I was dead, would she be sad? Would she regret
00:12:44it?
00:12:45Still sulking? You're already ten, not five. Trying to get my attention this way? Then don't come out.
00:12:51Mom! I'm not sulking! I'm dead! I'm already dead! Look at me! I froze to death! Right there in the
00:12:57attic!
00:12:57I'm not lying! The bracelet is broken! Anna ate it! Look at me!
00:13:02Why did it suddenly get so cold? Is the fireplace not burning strong enough? David, go add some more wood!
00:13:08Mom couldn't hear my voice. She couldn't feel my presence. I was a ghost. A ghost who died at her
00:13:15hands, ignored and forgotten.
00:13:16Don't sound the colder mother. Seriously? Yes!
00:13:20Shouldn't we turn on the heating? The rescue team will be here soon anyway?
00:13:24You're right. Let them see that even in this kind of environment, we can still maintain a scientific standard of
00:13:28living.
00:13:30She went downstairs and turned on the central heating and the floor heating throughout the house.
00:13:36The temperature in the attic rose as well. My body began to decompose faster.
00:13:45The water spread outward, soaking through the cardboard, seeping into the floor.
00:13:50I watched my body grow colder and stiffer, little by little, until signs of decay began to appear.
00:13:57That was my smell. The smell of death. They were going to leave after being rescued. They were going to
00:14:04leave this cabin that had trapped me.
00:14:06They were going to leave my body here, forever in this cold attic.
00:14:11I'll take something to Chloe. She's been in the attic for two days. She hasn't even had a sip of
00:14:15water.
00:14:15Take what? Her red light is on like that. She's got more than enough energy. She won't starve.
00:14:25Dad! Open the door! Hurry! Open it! If you just turn the handle, you'll see that I'm not moving anymore.
00:14:32You'll see my darkened face.
00:14:39Hello? Rescue team? Yes, this is David.
00:14:42What? You can come up the mountain in two days? That's great!
00:14:46The rescue team said the blizzard will completely stop. In two days they'll be able to come up!
00:14:53It was that close, just that tiny bit, just one second. I could have been found. Maybe then, I wouldn't
00:14:59have to keep decaying.
00:15:12Mom was the first to notice.
00:15:15What is that smell? It's disgusting!
00:15:19Oh my god! It stinks! It's coming from the attic!
00:15:22Did my sister go on the floor? Did she do it on purpose? Is she trying to stink us to
00:15:27death?
00:15:32Chloe! What are you doing in there? It stinks!
00:15:51Chloe, didn't you want to disgust us? Fine. Then stay in there with your stink. Don't even think about coming
00:15:57out to pollute our air.
00:16:00The last trace of my attachment to her snapped completely. Just like that strip of tape.
00:16:05She would rather seal the cracks of the door with tape and endure the increasingly unbearable stench, then push the
00:16:11door open and look at her own daughter.
00:16:13I'm right here.
00:16:16Can't you see me?
00:16:22The tape in the end couldn't block the overwhelming stench of a rotting body. Another day passed. It was the
00:16:28day the rescue team had promised to come up the mountain.
00:16:45Chloe! I've had enough of you, you disgusting little brat! What exactly are you trying to do? Making the whole
00:16:52house stink on purpose? Are you trying to torment us? I'm gonna teach you a lesson today!
00:17:10Chloe? Chloe?
00:17:23I'm talking to you, Chloe!
00:17:26I'm talking to you, Chloe!
00:17:32Oh!
00:17:34Oh!
00:17:37Oh!
00:17:38Oh!
00:17:38Oh!
00:17:40Oh!
00:17:40Oh!
00:17:41Oh!
00:17:42Oh!
00:17:50Chloe, no, no, that's impossible, Chloe, you're pretending, aren't you, Chloe, you're lying
00:17:57to mom again, aren't you, get up, mom's not angry anymore, I won't scold you again, get
00:18:04up, don't scare me, please, her hand trembled as she reached beneath my nose, no breath,
00:18:10then she reached for my neck, feeling for a pulse, nothing, only coldness, only silence,
00:18:17I was truly dead, dead in the attic she had locked with her own hands, dead in the cold
00:18:22and hunger she had caused, dead under the gays, she never once chose to believe, impossible,
00:18:29the machine doesn't lie, impossible,
00:18:41they had followed the sound of the screams, the team leader pushed open the attic door
00:18:45and froze the moment he saw what was inside, the body of a 10 year old girl lay curled up
00:18:50on the cold floor, a bracelet flashing red on her wrist, a woman sat collapsed on the ground,
00:18:56screaming like a mad woman, her eyes unfocused, completely deranged, David and Anna, who had
00:19:01followed behind, turned deathly pale the moment they saw my body, David's legs gave out and
00:19:08he collapsed at the doorway, his whole body trembling violently, how did this happen, how did this
00:19:13happen, how did this happen, how did this happen, he finally understood, behind the door he had
00:19:18almost opened that day, lay his daughter's cold corpse, he finally understood that his repeated
00:19:24hesitation and retreat had ultimately pushed me to my death, Anna hid behind David, staring
00:19:30at my bluish, swollen face, and fear finally showed on her face, she burst into tears, clinging
00:19:37tightly to David's arm, her body shaking like a leaf in the autumn wind, barely able to stand,
00:19:43she was finally afraid, she finally understood that her prank, her lies, her framing, had cost
00:19:50a life, had killed her own sister, quick, call a doctor, seal off the scene, the rescue team leader
00:20:00quickly snapped out of it, and shouted sharply at the others, unable to suppress the anger in his voice,
00:20:07the team set up a cordon, a doctor pushed through the crowd and entered the attic, crouching beside
00:20:12my body for a long time, examining carefully, his movements gentle, as if afraid of damaging
00:20:19my already fragile skin, severe hypothermia, organ failure, this child was starved for at least a
00:20:26month, and in temperatures well below freezing, she froze to death, time of death was two to three
00:20:32days ago, it's not my fault, she was lying, she stole food, look, the bracelet is red, the red light,
00:20:42it says she has excess calories, I follow the data, machines don't lie, the doctor frowned,
00:20:48crouched down, and carefully tried to remove the bracelet from my wrist, but the strap had fused
00:20:54tightly with my frozen purplish skin, almost as if it had grown into the flesh, gritting his teeth,
00:21:00the doctor took out specialized tools, and carefully pried the bracelet off, little by little, I floated
00:21:06in midair, watching the bracelet that had been on me for ten whole days finally leave my wrist, this cold
00:21:12shackle that had trapped me for ten days, that had caused my death, finally fell away, the doctor held
00:21:18the bracelet, turning it over and over, then opened the casing on the back, after just one glance, he let
00:21:25out a cold laugh, looking up at mom, ma'am, your so-called infuelable machine, has been broken for
00:21:32a long time, the temperature sensor and calorie monitoring module have completely failed, the
00:21:37circuit shorted out, which is why the red light stays on, from the very first day it was worn, it
00:21:42was already broken, it couldn't measure anything at all, it could only keep flashing red, the truth,
00:21:48she had trusted above all else, the thing she relied on to judge my life and death, had been a
00:21:55joke from the
00:21:56very beginning, you are lying, I hadn't lied, not once, the bracelet was broken, she was wrong, no, no, that's
00:22:16impossible,
00:22:20no, impossible, machines don't lie, look, Anna's bracelet is still green, this proves the system
00:22:30works, this is scientific, at that moment, a female rescue worker walked over to Anna, bent down, and took
00:22:38something out of her pocket, it had been hidden there for days, crumpled beyond recognition, still smeared
00:22:44with traces of chocolate, holding the wrapper, the rescue worker walked up to mom, and said
00:22:50coldly, ma'am, is this the chocolate you said was stolen, we found it in your younger daughter's
00:22:57pocket, all eyes turned instantly toward Anna, Anna's face went pale in an instant,
00:23:08it wasn't me, my sister told me to hide it, she ate it, not me, but this time, no one
00:23:19believed
00:23:19her anymore, little girl, take off your bracelet and show it to me, Anna froze instantly, no, mom
00:23:33gave it to me, I won't take it off, but the doctor gave her no chance to argue, he pulled
00:23:38out a
00:23:38screwdriver and pried the bracelet open on the spot, what was inside made everyone gasp, no sensors,
00:23:46no chip, no heat, monitoring module, nothing at all, only two cheap green LED lights and a button
00:23:52battery, the circuit was hardwired, once powered, it is just a two yuan toy, he doctor slammed the
00:23:59shattered bracelet onto the ground in front of mom, his voice trembled with barely contained rage,
00:24:05this bracelet of your younger daughter was designed to always show green from the very beginning, no
00:24:10matter what she said, what she did, or how much she lied, it would always stay green, ma'am, your
00:24:14so-called
00:24:15scientific survival system, your so-called infuelable data, from beginning to end was nothing but a
00:24:21complete joke, a sick, biased joke, you personally froze your honest daughter to death in that attic,
00:24:26while treating a compulsive liar like treasure, mom looked at the shattered plastic pieces on the
00:24:31ground, at the toy still glowing green, and suddenly, she laughed, she laughed loudly, so loudly that tears
00:24:42came out of her eyes, she doubled over, collapsing onto the floor, her whole body curling up with laughter,
00:24:52fake, it's all fake, mom suddenly screamed, and then she did something insane, no way, the bracelet
00:25:01can't be wrong, I didn't eat anything today, my calories couldn't possibly be over, it'll turn
00:25:07green, she grabbed the bracelet, still stained with my blood and fragments of skin, and snapped it onto
00:25:12her own wrist, she took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, she raised her wrist, her eyes wild,
00:25:18look, it'll turn green, the red light flared, bright, violent, mom's confident expression
00:25:25shattered instantly, she slapped at the bracelet, like it was a broken television, panic rising in
00:25:30her voice, what, no, my calories can't be over, I didn't exceed anything, why is it red, I didn't lie,
00:25:39she started speaking faster and faster, it's broken, the doctor broke it, I'll try again,
00:25:45I've never abused her, I was doing it for her good, I love, why is it red, I'm telling the
00:25:51truth,
00:25:52turn green, you piece of junk, you're framing me, suddenly she remembered me, ten-year-old me,
00:25:58punished so severely, curled up on the floor, biting my lip to stop myself from screaming,
00:26:03but the red light kept flashing, as if it was speaking to her, again and again, you are a liar,
00:26:09you are a liar, mom suddenly screamed, clawing frantically at the bracelet, trying to rip it
00:26:16off her wrist, take it off, it's red, I'm not a liar, I'm not, but the clasp had locked due
00:26:23to her
00:26:24violent struggle, like a shackle, tightly bound to her wrist, just as it had once been tightly bound
00:26:29to mine, a doctor picked up the diary from the floor, he flipped through it, page by page,
00:26:37his expression growing darker and darker, February 14th, day seven of the blizzard,
00:26:44mom found the chocolate missing, she said I stole it, I didn't, it was Anna who ate it,
00:26:49my bracelet turned red, mom hit me, shocked me with the brazier, mom locked me in the acnic,
00:26:54dad took my bring me food, but Anna stopped him, Anna poured hot water onto my cardboard bed,
00:26:58I hit the floor and called for mom, but she turned up the music so loud she couldn't hear me,
00:27:03when I was nine, Anna broke mom's most precious tech robot, and cried saying I did it, without even
00:27:10asking, mom locked me in the storage room for a full day and night with no food or water,
00:27:15I banged on the door, crying that it wasn't me, but she wouldn't listen, and Anna, she was curled up
00:27:22in mom's arms, eating sweet strawberries, watching me be locked away with a happy smile,
00:27:27countless days and nights, Anna stole my toys, tore my drawings, ruined my homework,
00:27:33and then cried to mom, saying I didn't, every single time, mom believed Anna without question,
00:27:39then scolded me, punished me, and made me stand in a cold corner without food,
00:27:46machines don't lie, Anna's wristband is green, you're just a liar,
00:27:51mom, I really didn't lie, I've never lied to you, I know you don't like me, but I still love
00:27:57you,
00:27:58if I die, will you regret it, will you miss me even a little, if there's a next life,
00:28:05can you believe me once, can you please stop calling me a liar,
00:28:10every word struck like a heavy hammer, crashing down on on my mom's heart,
00:28:15she covered her face and let out a heart-wrenching cry, like a wounded beast,
00:28:20she remembered the fourth day of the blizzard, the slap she gave me across the face,
00:28:25and the electric shock that coursed through my entire body,
00:28:30she remembered pulling the only blanket off me and wrapping it around Anna instead,
00:28:35and the despair in my eyes, she remembered me banging on the floor,
00:28:42screaming for her help, while she deliberately turned up symphony of fate to the maximum volume
00:28:47to block out her own ears, she remembered sealing the cracks of the attic door with tape,
00:28:53and the disgust and impatience she felt at the time, she had personally little by little
00:29:00pushed her daughter toward death, she had personally killed the little girl who loved her most,
00:29:05and trusted her most,
00:29:10mom let out a piercing scream, and suddenly raised her head,
00:29:15looking toward Anna curled up in the corner,
00:29:17it's you, it's all you,
00:29:20she lunged forward like a mad woman,
00:29:24tightly gripping Anna's throat, screaming hysterically,
00:29:27you're the one who lied,
00:29:29you're the one who stole the chocolate,
00:29:32you tricked me,
00:29:33you killed Chloe,
00:29:35I'm going to kill you,
00:29:37you'll pay for my daughter's life,
00:29:42the rescue staff and doctors rushed in and pulled mom away,
00:29:47pinning her firmly down on the sofa,
00:29:50my dad watched everything,
00:29:53the crazed mother,
00:29:54the terrified Anna,
00:29:55and the bloodstained note in the evidence bag,
00:29:58and finally snapped,
00:30:02you monster,
00:30:06that was your daughter,
00:30:07our daughter,
00:30:08you froze her to death with your own hands,
00:30:11how dare you,
00:30:12how could you,
00:30:15it's not my fault,
00:30:17it was the wristband,
00:30:20it was Anna,
00:30:22it's not my fault,
00:30:23my body was placed into a black body bag,
00:30:27the zipper slowly closed,
00:30:29sealing away my short 10 years of life filled with pain and despair,
00:30:32don't take her away,
00:30:34give her river back to me,
00:30:36she ran across the snow field,
00:30:38her bare feet stepping onto sharp ice shards,
00:30:40instantly cutting her skin,
00:30:42blood trailed across the white snow,
00:30:44leaving a shocking red path behind her,
00:30:52she reached the landing gear area,
00:30:55desperately jumping upward,
00:30:57trying to grab hold of the edge of the body bag,
00:30:59but she only grasped empty,
00:31:01freezing air,
00:31:02and swirling snowflakes,
00:31:06this incident quickly spread across the world,
00:31:09the rescue team's camera had recorded everything,
00:31:12one of the crew members accidentally uploaded the footage online,
00:31:16and from there,
00:31:17it spread like an unstoppable avalanche,
00:31:28the entire internet exploded,
00:31:31netizens were in full outrage,
00:31:41and that father too,
00:31:43he did nothing the entire time,
00:31:44just watched his daughter being abused,
00:31:46he deserves to die as well,
00:31:48a flood of insults poured in like an avalanche,
00:31:51crashing down on my mom,
00:31:52my dad,
00:31:53and this shattered family,
00:31:55on the second day after the incident escalated,
00:31:58our villa at the foot of the mountain was completely surrounded by an enraged crowd,
00:32:02the front gate had been splashed with bright red paint,
00:32:05in thick black marker,
00:32:07the words murderers,
00:32:09get out of this city,
00:32:10and justice for Chloe,
00:32:12were written everywhere,
00:32:13the villa windows had been smashed with bricks,
00:32:16red paint,
00:32:17and abusive slogans covered the walls and floors,
00:32:21at the entrance,
00:32:22reporters and furious protesters packed tightly together,
00:32:26behind them,
00:32:27the crowd held signs filled with insults,
00:32:29chanting loudly until the noise shook the air,
00:32:32Grace,
00:32:32the murderer,
00:32:33get out,
00:32:34you don't deserve to be a mother,
00:32:35pay for Chloe's life,
00:32:37evil family,
00:32:39get out of Switzerland,
00:32:41neighbors had already moved out one after another,
00:32:43the property management even came with legal notices,
00:32:46demanding we leave immediately,
00:32:48saying our presence had severely damaged neighborhood safety and property values,
00:32:52and caused extreme disturbance to other residents,
00:32:55inside the villa,
00:32:56everything was in chaos,
00:32:57the curtains were tightly drawn,
00:32:59the lights stayed off,
00:33:00only the glow of the television illuminated the pale faces of my dad and my mom,
00:33:04The house phone had been completely overwhelmed,
00:33:06every call that came through brought waves of insults and curses,
00:33:10even the mobile phones couldn't be turned on,
00:33:12the moment they were switched on,
00:33:13countless abusive messages and non-stop harassing calls flooded in,
00:33:16It's not my fault.
00:33:19It's not my fault.
00:33:30It's all your fault.
00:33:31All of it.
00:33:32If it weren't for that damn bracelet of yours,
00:33:34if you hadn't trusted those useless data readings,
00:33:37Chloe wouldn't be dead.
00:33:38We wouldn't have ended up like this.
00:33:39You're a mad woman,
00:33:41a murderer.
00:33:45What right do you have to blame me?
00:33:47You were there to save her.
00:33:48You're an accomplice.
00:33:49You deserve to die too.
00:33:56You're a mad man,
00:34:06you're a mad man.
00:34:06No!
00:34:07You're a mad man.
00:34:09You're a mad man.
00:34:11No.
00:34:21Mom and dad had no choice but to sell the house, the car, and everything valuable in the home to
00:34:26cover legal fees and compensation.
00:35:05These items have been seized and auctioned by the court. They no longer belong to you.
00:35:23If you fail to repay the debt, we will file for court enforcement and have you imprisoned it.
00:35:47Anna.
00:36:06Anna, look at Anna.
00:36:08Anna, it's not fair.
00:36:16Anna.
00:36:17Anna.
00:36:18Anna.
00:36:19Anna.
00:36:23Anna.
00:36:27Anna.
00:36:29Anna.
00:36:31Anna.
00:36:32Anna.
00:36:35Anna.
00:36:39Anna.
00:36:39Anna.
00:36:41Anna.
00:36:42Anna.
00:36:46Anna.
00:36:46Anna.
00:36:47It wasn't me. I didn't kill my sister.
00:36:49Didn't you have that bracelet with the always green signal?
00:36:51Why doesn't anyone believe you now?
00:36:53You deserve it. This is what you get for what you did to your sister.
00:36:56Liar. Thief. Murderer.
00:36:58Why don't they bully anyone else? Just you.
00:37:01Maybe you should reflect on yourself.
00:37:03When you harmed your sister, when you harmed your...
00:37:06Did you ever think this day would come?
00:37:14Let me out. Please let me out.
00:37:16I didn't steal it. I really didn't.
00:37:51Sister. Mom, help me.
00:37:58This was her rightful punishment.
00:38:03As for Mom, her fate was even more tragic than anyone else's.
00:38:08The defendant should undergo a forensic psychiatric evaluation.
00:38:14I'm not crazy.
00:38:16Everything I do is based on the data from the scientific wristband.
00:38:19I didn't do anything wrong.
00:38:30Can you explain the behavior at that time?
00:38:33I didn't do anything wrong.
00:38:35The bracelet is broken.
00:38:37Anna lied to me.
00:38:44Chloe, sorry.
00:38:47It's all my fault.
00:38:52Machines don't lie.
00:38:55Red light.
00:38:58Chloe, I'm sorry.
00:39:00She had lost the capacity for civil conduct and was unfit to serve a prison sentence.
00:39:07She would be forcibly committed to a psychiatric hospital for lifelong isolated treatment.
00:39:15I'm not crazy.
00:39:17I'm not crazy.
00:39:17You're the ones who are crazy.
00:39:19The bracelet was broken.
00:39:21It's not my fault.
00:39:22I'm not insane.
00:39:24I was right.
00:39:26The data doesn't lie.
00:39:28Chloe lied to me.
00:39:29Anna lied to me.
00:39:30I'm not crazy.
00:39:31Let me out.
00:39:33Just like no one had believed me back then, police officers and caretakers walked in carrying
00:39:39restraint straps.
00:39:41The moment Mom saw them, she reacted like a startled beast.
00:39:45She kept retreating, then suddenly tried to run toward Dad's direction, as if hoping he
00:39:51would save her.
00:39:52But Dad had long since disappeared.
00:39:56In the courtroom, there was not a single person on her side.
00:40:01In that moment, she was truly alone.
00:40:05Just like I once was, trapped in the attic with no one to turn to.
00:40:12Before being sent to the psychiatric hospital, she did something insane.
00:40:16That was the day my body was sent to the funeral home.
00:40:20Hey!
00:40:32Chloe!
00:40:35Come back!
00:40:35Mom was wrong!
00:40:36Come back!
00:40:37I'm sorry!
00:40:39Chloe!
00:40:39Chloe!
00:40:41Wait for me!
00:40:42Chloe!
00:40:43Help!
00:40:45Help!
00:40:47Help!
00:40:48Help!
00:40:49Help!
00:40:50Help!
00:40:51Her feet suffered severe frostbite, and the tissue completely neckerated.
00:40:56The doctors had no choice but to perform an amputation, cutting everything below the knees.
00:41:02she became a woman without legs completely broken and completely insane
00:41:13in the psychiatric hospital she became the strangest patient no one knew where she got
00:41:19it from but she found a red plastic ring and wore it around her neck like a collar
00:41:23it was her self-made calorie monitoring bracelet
00:41:28don't touch my light chloe is watching if you take it away she'll get angry
00:41:43she was reliving my final moments before death she locked herself inside the same cold attic
00:41:50where i had once been trapped reliving my personal hell over and over again chloe i'm sorry mom was
00:41:56wrong please come back okay mom will never trust the bracelet again mom will bake you cake cover

00:42:35heart
00:42:35only a dead silence regret means nothing to the dead it was too late mom it's all too late
00:42:44when i was locked in the attic and frozen to death where was your remorse when i used my last
00:42:49strength
00:42:49to write a blood-written plea begging you to believe me just once where was your remorse
00:42:54mom i don't hate you anymore but i don't love you anymore either in the next life let's not meet
00:43:02again
00:43:08i drifted through the snow storm of the alps snow fell onto my body yet i felt no cold at
00:43:13all
00:43:13i was finally free no red lights no hunger no cold no lies no mom's hatred no anna's framing no
00:43:20dad's
00:43:21inaction only boundless freedom just then i heard a familiar bark i looked down a golden sled dog was
00:43:28sitting in the snow wagging its tail looking up at me with bright eyes it was buddy buddy was the
00:43:34dog i
00:43:34once raised a gift from dad on my eighth birthday a gentle golden retriever sled dog my only warmth in
00:43:42childhood when my mom called me a liar and anna bullied me only buddy would run over lie down by
00:43:51my feet and rub its head against my hand staying with me but mom didn't like it she said dogs
00:43:59carry
00:44:00germs and would affect her research before we came to the snowy mountains for vacation she took
00:44:05advantage of a moment when i wasn't paying attention and abandoned bunny in the mountains
00:44:15i cried for days and searched for days but i never found him it turns out he had always been
00:44:21here
00:44:22waiting for me at the border
00:44:30let's go don't look back i could feel his soft warm fur feel his body temperature feel his heartbeat
00:44:38this was the living breathing connection i had longed for most when i was alive
00:44:47in the distance a door of light appeared it was the entrance to the next cycle of reincarnation
00:44:54i turned back and took one last look at this world that had tormented me for 10 years
00:44:58one look in the direction of the psychiatric hospital and one look at the wooden cabin that
00:45:03had trapped me then i turned around holding buddy's paw and walked step by step toward that
00:45:09door of light everything behind me became like a faded photograph slowly blurring and dissolving
00:45:16my mother's final tears the bracelet's red glow the blood written message on the floor the freezing
00:45:22attic all of it vanished i did not look back the nightmare that had lasted wood for 10 years had
00:45:29finally come to a true end passing through that light there was no spinning no chaos only endless
00:45:35warmth as if i were sinking into a spring stream even the pain deep within my soul those lingering aches
00:45:41and phantom pains gradually faded away buddy's paw in my hand was warm and gentle when i opened my eyes
00:45:48again i was small wrapped in a soft blanket someone was humming it was a woman's voice gentle slightly off
00:45:58key yet filled with love
00:46:00her fingers lightly brushed across my cheek carrying the scent of gardenias not the cold disinfectant smell
00:46:06from my mother in my previous life not that clinical distant feeling
00:46:11you're awake honey come quickly our daughter just blinked he was tall with healthy wheel colored
00:46:20skin weathered features but his eyes were exceptionally gentle he was my father in this sweet life martin
00:46:27he was the same rescue captain from my previous life the first person to rush into the attic and find
00:46:33my body
00:46:36hey charlotte i'm your dad charlotte not chloe no burden no shackles no lies no label of liar just charlotte
00:46:49a name
00:46:50that meant warmth being cherished and being loved unconditionally i grew up in a home filled with love
00:46:56our house wasn't big but it was clean and warm in the living room there was a large fireplace that
00:47:01burned
00:47:02brightly every winter filling everything with cozy heat there were no heat monitoring bracelets no red
00:47:08or green lights no strict food rationing no cold attic only endless love and unconditional trust when i
00:47:16was three years old my mother made hot cocoa the aroma drifted from the kitchen into the living room
00:47:21the living room
00:47:31baby i'm here
00:47:36charlotte you're safe now i'm here dad is here no one will hurt you
00:47:42my throat's hurt i don't want hot cocoa
00:47:48not like the hot water in the attic thermos that anna once poured out
00:47:52not something that had been held up to my mouth before being taken away when i was four years old
00:47:58the kindergarten organized a health checkup that included a blood test
00:48:09charlotte it's just a tiny poke it won't hurt look at the other children they're all very brave
00:48:13don't punish me i didn't lie don't shock me
00:48:19sorry my child's experienced trauma we're going to skip the physical exam for now
00:48:23we'll take her to a child psychologist and we'll come back when she's ready
00:48:31charlotte did someone hurt you before
00:48:35bracelet red light so cold my baby you must have suffered so much didn't you
00:48:42it's okay now you're home mom and dad are here no one can hurt you anymore
00:48:49from that day on they regularly took me to see a child psychologist
00:48:54the doctor said i had severe post-traumatic stress disorder
00:49:00my parents never complained once they never made me feel like a burden they stayed with me
00:49:06played games with me did therapy exercises with me slowly healing the wounds in my heart
00:49:13they bought me many many colorful beautiful bracelets but they never forced me to wear any of them
00:49:22these are just accessories charlotte wear them if you like if you don't just take them off no matter
00:49:26what your dad and i will always love you i looked at the sparkling bracelet on my wrist there was
00:49:31no
00:49:31red light no electric shock no accusation only my mother's gentle smile it took me two lifetimes
00:49:36to finally hear those words when i was five years old i once had a fever i started crying uncontrollably
00:49:44i feel hot it wasn't because i felt unwell it was because what i said mom immediately took
00:49:50a thermometer and checked my temperature
00:50:00mom if i say i feel hot do you believe me
00:50:07i believe you if you say you're hot then you're hot the thermometer says you're hot too
00:50:13of course i believe you what if the thermometer didn't say i was hot but i said i was would
00:50:19you
00:50:19still believe me i would your feelings are your own they don't need any machine to prove them
00:50:25i held on to those words in my heart for a long long time the afternoon i had a fever
00:50:31it started
00:50:32snowing outside dad wrapped me in a blanket and held me by the window as we watched the snow
00:50:38mom loved snowy days the most when i was a child building snowmen with my brother once i had placed
00:50:44the snowman's nose where its eyes should be why it was so the snowman could look down at its own
00:50:54feet
00:50:54otherwise it would never know what it was wearing i was wrapped in that blanket simply because they
00:51:01wanted me to feel warm so they wrapped me up in it it was soft thick and warm i buried
00:51:07my face in
00:51:07it and took a breath it smelled like fabric softener clean dry and unmistakably the scent of home when i
00:51:15was seven i started elementary school there was a girl in my class named lena she looked exactly like
00:51:21anna from my previous life the same eyes the same face shape
00:51:29sister you're so pitiful
00:51:36i'm my name is lena you do you want to be my friend her tone was so cautious so eager
00:51:45to please
00:51:46just like me in my previous life almost instinctively i glanced at her wrist she was
00:51:51wearing a cheap green cartoon wristband later i learned that lena's mother was also extremely strict
00:51:57she demanded absolute obedience and absolute honesty if lena made even the smallest mistake
00:52:03she would be locked in her room and denied food lena just like my past self lived in endless
00:52:09fear and suppression one day lena accidentally broke the teacher's glass cup
00:52:13i looked at her at the fear and despair in her eyes in that instant i was reminded of my
00:52:24past self the little girl who lay on the cold floor writing i am a liar over and over again
00:52:29begging
00:52:30for forgiveness again and again lena it's okay accidents happen let's go tell the teacher together
00:52:38okay the teacher won't be angry but mom said that children who lie are bad kids and they will be
00:52:46punished being honest doesn't mean you never make mistakes it means that when you do make a mistake
00:52:51you're brave enough to admit it and even if you tell the truth you shouldn't be punished for it
00:52:56i i broke the cup i'm sorry the teacher didn't get angry instead she smiled patted both our heads and
00:53:05said it was okay just to be more careful next time from that day on we became best friends
00:53:11i took lena home to meet my parents she looked at my mom and dad so gentle so patient never
00:53:18shouting
00:53:19over small things never punishing a child for making mistakes her eyes were filled with envy lena you don't
00:53:26need to please everyone you're allowed to have your own feelings you can say no you can be scared
00:53:31you can make mistakes none of that is shameful one day lena's mother came to school to pick her up
00:53:37when she saw us together her face immediately darkened she grabbed lena's hand tightly and said
00:53:42sharply did you cause trouble again is charlotte helping you lie
00:53:49auntie lena hasn't done anything wrong she's a very very good child you shouldn't always assume the
00:53:55worst about her she's afraid of you that night she called my mom they talked for a long time and
00:54:05in the end she said thank you thank you your daughter made me realize how terribly wrong i've been
00:54:14little by little lena's mother became gentler she started learning to listen instead of shouting
00:54:20to trust instead of blaming and lena too became more and more confident more and more open in my
00:54:29previous life i was never saved i endured all the pain alone in the darkness but in this life i
00:54:35can save
00:54:35others when i was 10 years old dad took us to the mountains not the alps just ordinary mountains
00:54:44dad was the captain of a mountain rescue team he knew every path in the area knew where the hidden
00:54:48ice
00:54:48was which slopes were dangerous where you could set up camp and where rocklops might happen after rain
00:54:53he led me along an easier trail mom walked behind us camera in hand taking photos from time to time
00:55:04here thank you
00:55:07dad have you ever seen people trapped in snowy mountains yes many times what happened to them in the end
00:55:20some were rescued some weren't the ones who weren't rescued
00:55:27do you still remember them i remember every single one do you know why i chose this job
00:55:35no because i hope that after every snowstorm no one is left alone in the mountains
00:55:40for everyone who gets trapped i hope someone can reach them in time the wind blew down from the mountain
00:55:46carrying the scent of pine trees and a faint coolness from the distant stream but it wasn't the kind
00:55:51of cold that selt into your bones it was breathable refreshing alive a summer kind of cool the coolness of
00:55:58being alive
00:56:02look
00:56:06i stared at that photo for a long time that child was me clean looking outward alive not chloe curled
00:56:14up in the
00:56:14corner of an attic in my previous life that was charlotte standing in the sunlight standing between
00:56:19dad and mom at that moment i remembered the lines in my drawing book i remembered the hands that wrote
00:56:25them i remembered the child who use up her last bit of strength just say i love you so much
00:56:31you don't
00:56:33need a wristband to prove that what you say is true there are people here who believe you even without
00:56:38a
00:56:38wristband even without any device to verify it even if what you say sounds impossible there will still be
00:56:43someone who will catch every word you say there are people here who believe you hey
00:56:50in autumn one of dad's old rescue teammates came to visit bringing his wife and an elderly woman when
00:56:57with them she was his mother even though time had carved deep marks into her face even though it shed
00:57:02the obsession and madness of my previous life even though the eyes that once belonged to a scientist
00:57:07no longer held that burning phoneticism only gentleness and the weight of years i would never mistake her
00:57:12this was grace
00:57:23charlotte what's wrong sweetheart are you feeling unwell at that moment the old woman's gaze also fell on me
00:57:30her originally gentle eyes froze the instant she saw me
00:57:41this is your child yes this is our daughter charlotte
00:57:50i could clearly see the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes the white strands at her thames and the
00:57:58tears
00:57:58pooling in her eyes held back so tightly that they refused to fall
00:58:05charlotte such a beautiful name my throat felt blocked as if something was stuck there
00:58:13i was no longer chloe i am charlotte the charlotte who had grown up wrapped in love
00:58:20seeing that i remained silent a trace of panic flashed in her eyes
00:58:26how old are you
00:58:32ten ten that's good at lunchtime she sat directly across from me
00:58:38she carefully used serving chopsters to put food into my bowl
00:58:44auntie you're spoiling charlotte too much you should eat too
00:58:50it's fine when i look at this child i just feel an instant sense of closeness
00:58:56i looked at the pile of food in my bowl my emotions tangled and heavy
00:59:01in my previous life until the day i died i had always hoped just once that she would serve me
00:59:08a
00:59:08bite of food say something gentle to me or believe me even once but now she had done it
00:59:16only it was already too late in the afternoon i paint alone in the sunroom
00:59:25charlotte can i sit here for a while i won't disturb you while you draw
00:59:30she carefully walked over and sat down on the wicker chair beside me
00:59:35i know who you are and i also know who i am from the moment i was born i carried
00:59:43all my memories
00:59:45i remember everything i did to you
00:59:49i'm sorry chloe i'm sorry chloe i'm sorry chloe i'm sorry to you i'm really sorry
00:59:59every day i asked myself why didn't i trust you that day in the cabin
01:00:07why did i trust that broken wristband instead of my own daughter i remember slapping you i remember
01:00:16shocking you the way you curled up on the floor begging me to stop i remember locking you in the
01:00:24attic
01:00:25the way you clung to the door frame begging me not to lock it i remember kicking open the attic
01:00:33door
01:00:34and finding your frozen body and the red light still flashing on your wrist i saw your blood written
01:00:44letter every single word i carved into my heart and carried with me for the rest of my life
01:00:51you asked if there could be another life could i please trust you once could i stop calling you a
01:00:58liar
01:01:00but i didn't even give you that chance i destroyed it with my own hands i'm sorry
01:01:07it was a diary with a sunflower on the cover the flower i had loved most in my previous life
01:01:14chloe no charlotte i know that no matter how many apologies i say it's useless now i took your
01:01:23life i can never repay what i owe you not in this life not in the next i don't dare
01:01:31to ask for your
01:01:32forgiveness i just i just wanted to tell you sorry in person i just want you to know that i
01:01:39understand
01:01:39now love is not measured by machines nor judged by data it is listening to you believing what you say
01:01:45holding you and telling you that your mother is here but i understood all of that far too late
01:01:49too late i'm so sorry charlotte she was crying so hard that her whole body trembled
01:01:57her aged face was covered in tears and regret
01:02:02i looked at her for a long time in my previous life lying on the cold floor of the attic
01:02:08what i had
01:02:09wanted most before dying was a single apology from her a single i believe you but now she was truly
01:02:16standing in front of me saying countless apologies and yet i realized they no longer mattered to me i
01:02:23already had a new life parents who loved me a warm home and a bright future auntie i don't hate
01:02:29you
01:02:30anymore her tears fell even harder her lips trembled as if she wanted to say something but no words came
01:02:36out but i also won't call you mom again the me i am now what is charlotte i have my
01:02:41own parents they
01:02:41love me very much i've received your repentance i don't hate you anymore because i don't want to be
01:02:48trapped by the past i don't want to spend my entire life living inside that snowy mountain nightmare
01:02:54but i also won't forgive you not because of hatred but because what happened does not deserve
01:02:59forgiveness after hearing my words her body swayed she covered her face and let out a broken
01:03:06desperate sob she knew i was right it was too late everything was too late when she locked me in
01:03:16the attic and let me freeze to death where was her remorse then when i kept calling her mom over
01:03:22and
01:03:22over telling her i wasn't lying where was her remorse then when i used my last strength to write a
01:03:29blood
01:03:29letter begging her to believe me just once where was her remorse then now it was all too late that
01:03:38afternoon when jason's family prepared to leave the old woman walked at the very end at the doorway she
01:03:45turned back to look at me once more her eyes were full of tears reluctance and endless loneliness
01:03:49then leaning on her cane she walked away slowly step by step i stood at the door watching her aged
01:03:55hunched body disappear down the street and in my heart there was no ripple at all mom walked over
01:04:00and gently hugged me from behind she didn't ask what had happened she simply patted my head softly
01:04:06no matter what happens your dad and i are here for you
01:04:12that night i lay in bed with steady breathing occasionally shifting as i chased something in
01:04:17my dreams i stared at the ceiling thinking of my previous life chloe chloe they were real the pain was
01:04:28real that cold abandoned time when no one came for me that was real too but i am no longer
01:04:36chloe

01:04:45mission a family of three had been trapped near the 3 000 meter snow line and they were all rescued
01:04:52safely no one was injured during the celebration the entire team was eating in the cafeteria mom sat in
01:05:00a corner smiling as she watched him i sat beside mom eating and listening to their stories they talked
01:05:06about the child from that stranded family a boy eight years old when they found him he was curled up
01:05:13in a hollow facing away from the wind his head wrapped tightly in his clothes he knew how to preserve
01:05:19body
01:05:19heat he lasted much longer than we expected after being rescued the first thing the boy asked was
01:05:28where is my mom mom is here that boy's mother is here my mother is here too this is real
01:05:36this is not

01:06:00school in the city dad and mom took me to the seaside to celebrate i stood by the ocean the
01:06:08sea wind brushed
01:06:09through my hair carrying a salty taste i spread my arms feeling the wind feeling freedom
