047 – Monday Service # 2
“Yoo Da-hee is really crazy too. “How can you think about sleeping in a boy’s house just because you ran away from home?”
Yang Joo-hee clicked her tongue when she found out that Yoo Da-hee had slept over at our house last night.
It seems like it was a story that would be shocking to others.
If you think about it, it was like that.
A beautiful girl from the richest family asks if she can sleep over at my house.
It was an extraordinary event that rarely happens.
These days, I have encountered ghosts, been involved in murder cases, gone missing, and other things, and it seems that the threshold of what could be called the extraordinary and unreal has risen considerably.
“I think I’ll sleep in today too. “I may have to let you sleep at my house until mom gets discharged from the hospital.”
Yoo Da-hee couldn’t remember what happened in the hallway of nightmares yesterday.
But I think the relationship between me and Yoo Da-hee has definitely become something that could be called ‘friendliness.’
It was a relationship worth revealing to each other.
“Why did you give me the last amulet?”
It would have been better if Yoo Da-hee had escaped with the amulet attached to the statue on the first floor.
But instead of doing that, he gave in to me.
He also died as if he was deliberately baiting the third ghost.
Thanks to that, I was able to retrieve the amulet and escape.
I care about what he said at the end when he was eaten by that horrible red woman.
I couldn’t understand it well….
Ding dong ding dong-.
After chatting about various things, lunch time was already over.
When returning to class, Jeongseok spoke as if he had something to offer me.
“It seems like the more information we gather, the more difficult it becomes for us to handle on our own. “I think there are times when you need help from adults around you.”
“Um….”
“Eternal. “How about finding adults you can trust?”
“I’m an adult.”
Most adults were liars.
Can the words ‘reliable’ and ‘adult’ coexist?
The example was teacher Hong Mi-ri.
“Teacher Hong Mi-ri. The third ghost is probably English teacher Hong Mi-ri.”
“What? Is that real? Teacher Hong Mi-ri?”
Everyone seemed in disbelief.
Well, I couldn’t believe it until I saw the evidence myself.
However, the clear scar on the red woman’s neck and the ‘butterfly’ spot on her face were the clearest evidence of all.
If you think about it again… There were many suspicious and questionable aspects of English teacher Hong Mi-ri’s attitude.
“When he bought me soup, I got scared and got up first. At that time, I felt like someone was following me. “If I hadn’t met Yoo Da-hee back then, I don’t know what would have happened.”
When asking me about Kim Geon-ho’s well-being while eating soup, English teacher Hong Mi-ri said this.
━You were close with Kim Geon-ho, right? Don’t you know why you’re not going to school these days? Him. It seems like things have gotten a little strange since I stayed out at the old school building. What didn’t he say? A ghost story or something.
━Ghost… A story?
━Why. Something like a red mask that appears on the streets at night. Don’t kids these days know about the red mask? Wearing a red mask. Wearing high heels and something like a Barbary coat. My mouth was torn apart.
Red mask.
I didn’t think it was a big deal at the time, but it was clear that he was talking about me!
According to my reasoning, Kim Geon-ho was killed by the third ghost in his nightmare!
I haven’t even gone to school since!
That’s why Hong Mi-ri tried to tell me about Kim Geon-ho’s condition by talking about the red mask!
f*ck you!
The puzzle is falling into place?
It gives me goosebumps.
Of course, there seemed to be many things that Jeongseok still did not understand.
“Are you saying that Teacher Hong Mi-ri is a ghost? She didn’t look like a ghost…. “Could it possibly be related to the data on the ‘twin experiment’ discovered in this elevator?”
I don’t know.
I want to know too.
I need to think about what to do with Teacher Hong Mi-ri in the future.

What about ghosts and disappearance cases?
If you experience something unusual, you may start to value everyday life.
Classes at school were still boring.
“Okay. “Then everyone go home.”
Ends at 3pm.
Class hours at Yeongji High School became shorter and shorter, perhaps due to the unsightly neighborhood atmosphere.
I headed straight to the library.
I was wondering if I could possibly meet Yoo Da-hee, and I also wanted to get more information about Gaeryong City and Yeongji High School.
But at the library, I met teacher Kang Ha-neul instead of Yoo Da-hee.
“Teacher. “It’s been a while.”
“Eternal. How is your mother? Are you okay?”
“Are you okay? “She will be discharged from the hospital soon.”
“Thank God!”
Teacher Kang Haneul was happy with her work as if it were her own.
I suddenly remembered that Jeongseok asked, “Is there any adult you can trust?”
If it’s Teacher Kang Ha-neul, wouldn’t she be one of the adults who can be trusted?
But… , When he became entangled in “Ajumma,” Wasn’t teacher Kang Ha-neul’s life entangled in a very complicated problem? I suddenly became curious.
“How are you, teacher? Are you getting along well with the apartment residents now? “At that time, it wasn’t like the police came and caused a fuss because of me.”
“Oh, don’t say anything. “I thought I was going to die trying to resolve misunderstandings!”
Indeed.
We drag Teacher Kang Ha-neul, who has barely returned to his daily life, to our party filled with ghosts… This was a very bad thing.
I wonder if you will believe me.
Of course my nose is a stone.
The more allies there were, the better.
If there are adults in the party, the range of activities and options may increase.
You can also go to a PC room at night with the consent of your guardian.
But… It seemed like this matter would require careful consideration in many ways.
I left school without earning much from the library.
While I was talking, I thought I should go see my mom, but I heard laughter from her mom’s hospital room.
━It was like that back then. Just me!
I hear a man’s voice.
I don’t think you’re a doctor.
Drurr-.
When I opened the door to the hospital room and entered, I saw a man with messy hair and a beard on his nose and chin chatting with his mother.
Who is it? It looked unfamiliar.
“Oh. Eternity has come! Hey. “That is my son, Ha Young-won.”
Mom introduced me.
I couldn’t help but look at the man with slightly nervous and wary eyes.
The man came towards me and he put his hand on my head.
“Oh. I can’t believe it. Who would believe me if I told you that you have a son like this at your age? “You still seem like a single girl.”
He was a person who smelled terribly of cigarettes.
I feel like I’ll get cancer just by being close to it.
You are a completely carcinogenic human being!
“Who are you?”
“Didn’t mom tell you anything about me? “Your mom’s ex-boyfriend.”
Mom’s ex-boyfriend?
I felt like the past I didn’t want to know was swirling before my eyes.
Of course, her mother, who was sitting on her bed, laughed, hahahahaha.
“What nonsense? “Bada, you were my friend.”
“It would have been nice if it had been that way.” If I had succeeded in dating your mother, you might have been my son. Youngwon Ha. Nice to meet you.”
Sch-.
The man held out his hand to me.
I shook hands carefully, but I felt a strong grip on my hand.
The man’s eyes, which were as bright and relaxed as Hanryang, were looking down at me quite sharply.
“It looks similar. As expected, they look similar. “It’s completely identical.”
“Well, since he’s my son, he looks just like him.”
It’s really hard to get used to the atmosphere.
I decided to ask the man again.
“Who are you?”
“Ha Young-won. Have you seen Harry Potter?”
“Yes?”
“If you look there, can you see Professor Snape? Professor Severus Snape was bullied by the evil James Potter during his school days and even lost his crush, Lily Evans. That’s me. “It is called the river and sea.”
It appears that the man’s name was ‘Gangbada.’
He looked like an eccentric artist, but his name was just like a woman.
But… Don’t I know a similar name like this?
“Do you have a relationship with teacher Kang Ha-neul?” ?”
“Ah. She is my younger sister. They say you are a student at Yeongjigo. Are you taking my sister’s class? He was probably a literature teacher. “Nowadays, they don’t call it literature, they call it Korean language?”
“Ah!”
I had heard that Teacher Kang Ha-neul had an ‘older brother’. Because the place I stayed at Teacher Kang Ha-neul’s house was in my brother’s room!
That was this man’s river and sea!
And this man, Kang Bada, seemed to be my mother’s friend from when she was a high school girl!
Are we not just friends? Is the relationship a bit complicated?
My mother’s love story! Ugh. Not really… It’s a problem I don’t want to think deeply about!
“Ah. Shall I give you a business card? Even though I look like this, I am a decent social adult. Ruler.”
Chuck!
The man handed me a business card.
However, the business card was all in Japanese so it was difficult to read.
Because my second language was Japanese, I could read it to some extent.
“Sakura….”
“Sakuras Corporation. CEO. You can read it like that. “It’s a suitable small and medium-sized game company.”
“A game company?”
“Okay. This was quite a hit again. Have you ever heard of “The Corridor of the Abyss”? Or haven’t you heard of ‘New Amnesia’ or ‘Lethal Industry’?”
“Oh!”
I know!
I know!
Come to think of it, Jeongseok said that the CEO of the company that created the Abyssal Corridor was Korean!
It looks like it was real!
But I couldn’t just be happy.
Because the bearded man in front of me started to look more suspicious and suspicious.
So to speak, it was like a huge box. An unknown box where you don’t know what’s inside.
Then her mother asked.
“What? “Didn’t you say you’re a novelist?”
“I did. But all the books I wrote completely flopped. Ah, it seems like not everyone writes horror novels. Rather… Wow, it’s already time—.”
Sch-.
The man checked the time with an expensive-looking watch.
Then he messed up my hair once more and stormed out.
He was a very strange human being.
“Mom. “What on earth is that guy doing?”
“A kid who liked his mom back in the day.”
“It’s so real.”
“What is Shep? Her mom said that when she was in school, she was rumored to be the prettiest girl in school? She got confessed at least three times a day! The sea was one of them. Hey, I was a really timid kid back then. Maybe it’s because time has passed, but I’ve become a sly adult! “I feel like I made a lot of money!”
For some reason, her mother’s attitude seemed to be quite friendly toward the bearded man just now.
What? Am I on the verge of having a new dad?
I was so confused.
In a way, it was more crazy now than when I was wandering around the hallways where ghosts were popping out and all kinds of crazy things were happening.
Oh wow….
Then I become Kang Young-won?
Sch-.
I looked around at the business card I received from the mysterious man Kang Bada.
And I was able to discover some strange things written on the back of the business card.
「.— . ..-. -.. …- .–. .- –. ..- –」
“What is this?”
It could have been a doodle that could have been overlooked, but it was quite interesting to me, who had always gotten hints from small and insignificant things.
I wondered what this was and decided to take a picture and send it to Jeongseok.
I don’t know what it is, but if it’s standard, I’ll tell you everything.
There was absolutely no need for the internet.
I checked my phone and saw that there were 20 messages behind me.
「Joo Chan-mi: Where are you?」
「Joo Chan-mi: Where are you?」
「Joo Chan-mi: What do you want to eat?」
…
..
.
“Oh wow.”
Is this what the life of a popular man is like?
I remembered again that there is a ‘Monday service’ at Yeonggwang Church today.
“Oh, by the way, Mom, I heard you used to go to Yeonggwang Church?”
“Ah. It did. I have received a lot of help from the pastor there since long ago. When I came here to Gaeryong City, I settled down with the help of the pastor there. “It’s the same with your admission procedures.”
“Really?”
“When I’m discharged from the hospital, I’ll have to go with you and say thank you.”
Turrr-.
At that time, a phone call came.
It was Yang Joo-hee.
“It’s a phone call! Are you a girl? Are you Joohee by any chance? “Where have you gone?”
“Mom. Because it’s not like that. I don’t know! I’m going!”
I left the hospital room because I felt like it would be a bother.
When I answered the phone, I heard a voice I had never expected.
━Youngwon, where are you?
“Yoo Da-hee? “Are you calling Yang Joo-hee’s cell phone?”
━Stay with me now! Let’s have dinner together!
Are Yoo Da-hee and Yang Joo-hee together?
I’m embarrassed in many ways. I was planning to participate in the Monday service today.
“I’m planning on going to church today, so we might not be able to have dinner together. I might have dinner with my church sister. Maybe you should eat it among yourselves….”
Clunk-. Wadangtang-.
I soon heard various noises, and then Yang Joo-hee spoke.
━You want to eat with Chanmi, right? That’s good. Then, I will contact Chanmi and we can eat together. I will also participate in the Monday worship service.
A strange dinner was planned.
