The twelfth ghost story -
horror movie cliché (4)
beep lick~
“Come in.”
“Excuse me……
Suna greets you as you enter the front door with a shy smile..
“There is no one.”
“Because there are ghosts……
The two of us giggling and laughing.
As expected, I don't see any ghosts, perhaps because I'm with someone..
The same situation as when I rushed out of the house..
The illuminated entrance sensor light illuminates the dark living room..
“Seon-ya, look at this, here. front door.”
“huh……?”
I catch Seon-ah for a moment as she takes off her shoes and puts down the plastic bag she bought groceries in the living room..
“It was a door lock with a password entered from the outside, right? But inside, the method has been changed to insert the key..”
“···Wow.”
Suna looking inside and outside the door.
“···It's true?”
Pull the inner and outer handles at the same time and tilt your head..
Crash. Clap.
“look. Even though you open the inside and go out, there is a key hole..”
“Umm”
The two of us bowing our heads to look at the front door handle..
“It's like this and it works……?”
“huh. From the outside, use the door lock, and from the inside, use the key to open and exit..”
After looking at it a few times, Seon-ah soon raises her head with a puzzled expression..
“Why is it like this……?”
“I think I was influenced a bit by my ability to cliché..”
“ Ugh······
Seon-ah thinks for a moment and then turns around with a question mark..
“How about asking Kyungwon?
?”
“okay. Of course that would be better.”
“Tskcha······
While Suna put the grocery bags back in the kitchen, I took a picture of the door and posted it in the group chat with an explanation of the situation..
Then, after closing the front door, he went to the kitchen and called Seon-ah again, who was putting the ingredients on the table..
“Seonya, this way.”
“huh?”
Me gesturing in front of the door of the main room that is my parents’ room..
Suna unwraps a few green onions and then comes back to me..
“There was a loud noise here earlier. Before you relax, let’s check it out.”
Suna's expression soon became serious..
“It’s okay even if you don’t have a weapon or anything like that. “...I guess so? for a moment. I think there's something there.”
I dragged a vacuum cleaner from the living room..
“Jun, that’s a bit much.……
Suna looks at me with a puzzled expression..
“I think I can swing this too if I want to..”
“That's right, but……
Seona whines and grabs the handle of the vacuum cleaner and lifts it like a spear..
“Otherwise, I only have something like an umbrella or a kitchen knife... No one works out in my house.”
It would be good to have a blunt weapon that has a reasonable reach and can be wielded, such as a baseball bat or golf club..
This is all for now.
“okay……
Seonah holds the vacuum cleaner and nods..
“Then open it.”
“huh……!”
Immediately after turning the handle, I kicked open the door to my parents' room..
bang-!
As soon as the door opened, I hid behind Seon-ah..
sloppy.
Suna goes into her parents’ room with a vacuum cleaner..
He held it up and waved it in the air a few times, then looked back at me and nodded..
“Be safe, Jun..”
“good.”
I quickly join Suna’s side..
I looked back at my parents' room, but it was really fine..
A double-sized bed, a closet that takes up one wall, and a dressing table..
“Over there, the bathroom in my parents’ room. Let's just check there one last time..”
« huh ”
I also remember something jumping out at me during lunch on how to see ghosts..
I turn the door handle and push it carefully.
But as soon as it opens a little, it gets blocked by something and gets stuck..
For a moment, I had a scary thought that there was a scary ghost standing behind the door, cackling like crazy and using the same force to block the door from opening..
I pushed it open a few times and heard the sound of something scraping. It felt like something had fallen on the back of the door and was blocking it..
“Breathe! Inhale……
When I pushed it with my shoulder a few times, the door opened with the sound of objects being scraped..
When I turned on the light and looked in, I saw a completely destroyed bathroom..
“Oh my god, what is this?.”
“Be careful with the glass……
Standing outside and looking around, I saw that it was probably a cupboard in the bathroom, but it was a storage box above the toilet where towels and various other items were stored..
Perhaps the adhesive had run out, but the whole thing had rolled down and was smashed, blocking the back of the door..
“Wow, this is… I'm going to have a hard time cleaning it up..”
That loud sound from earlier was the sound of falling..
※Horror movie cliché: The startling scene turns out to be nothing special. eww
I decided to discuss what to do when my parents came and closed the bathroom door..
“Let's go have dinner. I'll cook you something delicious.”
“huh！”
Seon-ah follows behind me as I go to the kitchen, dragging a vacuum cleaner..
* * *
“Bukjongwon green onion oil fried rice.”
“Phew, try your best.……
Seona is giggling next to me as she stirs the scrambled eggs in an ugly manner..
On another gas stove, Seon-ah is making green onion oil by putting green onions on a pan with cooking oil..
“good. Throwing a hatbahn.”
“throw~”
Suna follows my instructions and puts the cooked rice cooked in the microwave into the pan..
We make fried rice by mixing scrambled eggs with green onions on top of green onion oil..
Add a generous amount of oyster sauce occasionally to bring out the flavor..
As soon as they looked cooked, they scooped them into rice bowls one by one and sprinkled sesame seeds on top to complete the dish..
“looks delicious.”
Golden green onion oil fried rice.
I took a bite right away and Seon-ah smiled and lifted her spoon..
“I’ll eat well, Jun.……
“Eat a lot. Let’s order chicken again later. Mom said she hid her emergency fund in a drawer..”
“Grain……
Suna answers while muttering..
Actually, I just want Seon-a to stay here for the night until the expulsion..
It seems okay now that we're together, but I don't know what will happen if I'm left home alone again..
‘Parents, if you want to leave from Seoul, go to Busan, pay the funeral, and come back... It'll really take until morning..’
Tomorrow is Friday, a weekday. Are you both okay with going to work?.
‘Seon-ah... I have to go to school tomorrow. Do you mind if I stay here all day?.’
I decided to quietly ask.
“Seon-ya, is grandma okay at home? You must be alone……
“I'm in the hospital today.”
Suna answers with her cheeks full of rice..
‘Then, I guess it would be okay to just quietly spend the day here.' I sweep my heart away as if I'm glad.
In horror movies, being alone means death..
‘But I really can't figure out where to start looking.' I decided to eat some food and think for now..
Muttering
［It was confirmed that Clover CEO Cheon Seung-jae entered Korea for the first time in a long time, and the president had an opportunity to exchange greetings with smiles and well-wishers..]
Around 9 p.m., I am lying on the living room sofa watching TV..
Suna spreads the table in front of me and eats the chicken, chomping..
KakaoTalk~〉
“Oh, it's here.”
A reply from Gyeongwon who finally finished the academy..
I quickly grabbed my phone, hoping to get some clue about the current situation..
“what？”
“Just sleep.”
Suna tilts her head while taking a bite of the cheese ball she received from the delivery app review event.
Kyungwon received a long KakaoTalk message..
〈Ahn Gyeong-won: First of all, as the director thought, it was just a way to identify ghosts and not create ghosts that did not exist, so I don’t think we’ll find anything even if we dig into that ghost story. One thing that comes to mind is that this may have been the starting point of the strange phenomenon that is happening to the manager now.?〉
“Starting point? hmm. What are you talking about?.”
“I know……
Suna mumbles and looks at her phone with cheese seasoning on her mouth..
As I wait, another guy’s KakaoTalk message comes..
〈Gyeongwon: They say ghosts mainly cling to people who recognize them. That's why there's a lot of advice to pretend you didn't see it. But the manager recognized the ghost by following the method Deok-hoon sent him. So, 'You saw it.' It may be that they are starting to cling to each other..〉
“That's what it sounds like..”
I nodded..
If that was the case, I could understand why a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred today..
But the problem is, where on earth did this ghost come from?.
I need to figure out the structure of the story so I can dig deeper, but I have no idea what kind of ghost story this is..
〈Lee Jun: So do you have any guesses about the ghost itself? First of all, the image I saw was that of a scary-looking woman with a long neck..〉
〈Optician: Well…….〉
Even though it's over the phone, I can picture the guy adjusting his glasses in my mind..
〈Glassesman: Well, if you just look at it as scary, there are so many variations. Still, considering his long neck, there is a possibility that he committed suicide by hanging himself while he was alive.…….〉
〈Lee Jun: Suicide by hanging… But nothing like that happened in my apartment, let alone my house..〉
〈Glassesman: I’m sure.?〉
〈Lee Jun: Huh. I lived here for 7 years and my mom was also the district president. Most of the neighbors know each other..〉
〈Glass Shop: Then it’s ambiguous. If there really wasn't anything to suspect that the manager had anything to do with something like that, maybe he was really just a passing ghost..〉
〈Lee Jun: So why did a passing ghost come to my house on the 7th floor... It's at a height where mosquitoes don't come in easily.…….〉
〈Glasses shop: I don’t know either..〉
The joy in my head that shrugs my shoulders.
〈Gyeongwon: There are a lot of things that ghosts get involved with. Have you ever picked up an item that fell on the street, or have you been feeling low these days? Like not performing a ancestral rite, or having someone nearby who was injured... there are hundreds of reasons, so you have to search hard..〉
“injured person nearby……?”
Suna's eyes and mine meet for a moment..
We both thought of the same thing.
“Jun, your parents……
“that's right. I thought that too.”
A relative who received the award that my parents mentioned..
Maybe it has something to do with it??
But when I think about it, I find that a bit strange too..
Since my parents didn't even mention to me who the deceased person was, he was probably a distant relative with whom I had no connection..
Even Busan is at the end of Korea compared to Seoul..
It's a distance that can never be said to be close..
〈Ahn Kyung-won: But the good news is that if you are in the position of a miscellaneous ghost like Ghost 1, who was just passing by, it will be easy to get rid of it. I looked up stories on the Internet and found that a ghost came into the house and was startled and started swearing and throwing things, but then it ran away and was never seen again.
There are many articles about.〉
“They are funny ghosts.”
I sighed and laughed..
Well, looking back on my experience so far, except for the demon-like beings created in real ghost stories, it seems like those who had the feeling that they were originally humans were defeated quite easily..
〈Optician: Just in case, check carefully to see if there are any items you have picked up recently. If you have no clue, it's probably your parents' side..〉
〈Lee Jun: Yes, thank you. I'll contact you if I find anything..〉
〈Gyeongwon: Is that the same cliché ability that the manager used? I'll look for this and that on the internet, so wait..〉
“Thank you always, Kyungwon..”
Suna nods, wiping her mouth with a tissue..
Since we are only talking through Gantalk, the rest of the team members are unaware of the situation..
The fact that a man and a woman are in the same house at night may cause some misunderstanding among the members..
Since it is a ghost that appears at home and not in a school setting, I personally want to deal with it quietly..
“I ate it all?”
« huh
Suna stands up and shakes her hands..
“I'll wash my hands and come back……
“You left a lot behind.”
I also pick up a chicken leg covered in cheese seasoning and tear it open..
‘It's delicious.’
I bought you chicken, so Seon-a has to stay here with me today until I get rid of the ghost..
After a while, around 10 p.m..
With all the lights on in the house and the TV in the living room turned on, we are searching through our parents' room..
Suna is going through the closet and I'm going through the clothes cabinet. Since there are more of my mom's things here, most of them are clothes and cosmetics..
“Jun, what is this… … ?” Suna comes to me carrying a box from under the closet..
It was a family album, but the box seemed suspicious..
“Ah, that. It's our family's old album..”
“Wow, you can look‘?”
“huh. As much as you want.”
Soon, Suna spreads out the album on the floor and flips through it..
I also took a quick look, and the last time I looked, it was full of pictures taken with Kim Eun-jung, but now all I see are ordinary pictures from my old days..
“Jun, this! Ahaha……
Seon-a laughs wildly when she sees a picture of herself as a child picking out and eating Tenten, one by one, the children's nutritional supplement Nomagold that her mother hid in the kitchen cupboard..
“I've been acting a lot since I was young.……
“what… Something like that, whatever.······
that… It's all like that, whatever..
I scratched my head in embarrassment and looked through the drawers of the dresser again..
And the Buddhist scriptures from the temple my mother goes to.
I was shocked when I noticed something strange between them..
“…Huh? why is this here?”
※Horror movie cliché: At the beginning of the play, an ominous object is discovered that hints at an incident..※
