📘🔥 The Big Fire at the House on the Hill
Episode 18: “The Decoy” 🚘🕶️
That night, Korto didn’t go home.
She stayed with her cousin in Paynesville, windows shut tight.
Moses Toe’s flash drive had exposed something big.
Too big.
At 1:47 AM, her phone buzzed again.
Unknown number. No voice.
Just a photo…
🧥 A picture of her house, taken from outside the gate. That same night.
She froze.
🚨 Meanwhile, across town, the Joint Security Taskforce was making moves.
They'd gotten word that Korto might be harboring evidence connected to the Capitol fire conspiracy.
They had her name… and someone on the inside wanted her silenced.
🧠 But Korto wasn’t naïve. She had a plan.
The next morning, she sent her assistant, Beatrice, to her office with a decoy envelope—plain, unmarked, but designed to draw attention.
Inside?
Just some old tax documents and a copy of “The 48 Laws of Power.”
But it worked.
Two men followed Beatrice as soon as she left the building.
🔍 Korto watched from across the street, camera in hand.
Got the license plate.
Got their faces.
She sent it to three journalists and a trusted friend in the press corps.
And then… she quietly boarded a car heading for Buchanan.
Why Buchanan?
Because that’s where Moses said the “other” flash drive had been hidden.
And it wasn’t just about Blue Hill.
It was about who funded it.
And how it connected to someone still sitting high… right inside the current government.
🕯️ Back in Monrovia, Hon. Fonati Koffa sat in a cold police holding cell.
He hadn’t said a word to anyone since his arrest.
But that night, he whispered to his cellmate:
“If she finds it in Buchanan… they’ll know everything.
The fire wasn’t to destroy the House.
It was to burn the audit.”

Korto arrives at the coast—but she’s not the only one searching for the flash drive. And someone very high up has sent men to make sure it never resurfaces.
