Chapter 3: Mina Claims the Debt Before the Buyer Does

Mina intercepts a shortened transfer alert and, with Sera and Rafi, uncovers that Nani Ilya’s reopened account sits inside a protected live chain tied to a hidden network and a false-death style erasure. Sera finally admits she signed chain-related paperwork out of fear of exposing the family, not simple cruelty. When the buyer packet resumes on Night 5, Mina chooses to enter the family record as responsible claimant, blocks the transfer, and makes herself visible in the chain.
