The eighth ghost story -
cursed midterm (4)
A scene similar to before was recreated again..
Kyungwon and Deokhoon quickly exchange opinions based on my story..
Suna and Hayun are just looking at me..
Jinhee furrows her eyebrows as if she doesn’t understand the situation..
As I watched the scene and waited quietly, it occurred to me that Deokhoon adapted quickly..
Like Jinhee, she must be a blank slate as she encounters a ghost story for the first time, but it feels like she's anxious because she can't hang out with him..
‘Are you thinking of it like role play? Well, I'm a guy who likes to watch anime and play games all the time..’
“Manager, here are our thoughts..”
As if the opinions had been resolved to some extent, Kyungwon called me with his glasses shining..
“There are two main things that bother me about the death of the former manager. Even though I answered correctly the first time, why am I being asked questions again? And how does a science teacher know about the existence of ghost stories?.”
“Hmm.”
With his mind in confusion, Kyungwon began to organize the situation..
“But in a way, those two things are outside of ghost stories. Since we can't give an answer right away, it's okay to leave it aside for now. Rather, what you need to focus on is this ghost story itself..”
“This ghost story itself?”
Gyeongwon nodded at my words..
That strange story written on the test paper.
Don’t you already know what type of ghost story it is, from its origins to the answer??
Does this mean there is more to dig into there??
“We explained that ghost story in a previous time slot.?”
“huh. I explained it.”
Deokhoon and Gyeongwon looked at each other with puzzled expressions at my simple and clear answer..
“How did you explain it? It's a ghost story I don't know.”
“I know.”
It was actually me who was confused..
Just the previous time, weren't the two of us excited and talking about what we knew?.
“Did you explain everything clearly? There's a ghost story that came from Japan, a ghost story that says if you remember it until you're 20, you'll be unhappy, and all that..”
“Hmm.”
Gyeongwon listens quietly and then asks me..
“Of course I know that much. We explained this last question on the manager's exam paper, this story itself.?”
“That's the explanation of course……
As I was speaking, I suddenly realized.
‘You didn't explain it.！’
These two guys were acting proud and then got knocked down by Jinhee and told me clearly..
［That’s right, manager… The form of the problem is... I’m seeing it ‘for the first time’ but… That's basically the gist of it.……』
［Anyway… Problems faced by the manager... I think I read some of the elements somewhere... This is our first time seeing something like this... Actually, I don't know... I don’t think I need to worry too much about the details… silver…….]
Not only that.
Before that, even when I first saw the problem and died, these guys were spinning around and telling me about the Ladari, the Purple Mirror, and other ghost stories that came to mind..
In fact, we were unable to share our opinions on the issue itself..
I quietly recalled the memories and answered them while drooling..
“I didn't do it. Now that I think about it, I don’t think I did it..”
“also.”
The two nod their heads quickly.
“The last question written on the manager's science test paper. I think I've read about the parts and parts somewhere, but this is the first time I've seen something like this where you die if you don't get it right..”
“Do you understand, Lee Jun?.”
Deokhoon took over and said while holding his weight..
“It's said to be a ghost story we've seen for the first time..”
This is the first ghost story these guys have ever seen..
Can something like that exist in this world??
“No, wait a minute! I don't understand either. I'm sure you guys lined up things like dolphin legs and purple mirrors, didn't you? then what is that?”
“These are similar ghost stories, but different from the problems the manager encountered. I think it will be easier to understand if you write it down one by one and explain it..”
Kyungwon stood up and walked to the whiteboard..
Then he took a seat, raised his glasses and smiled at me..
“Don't look so serious, manager. There is no ghost story in this world that we don't know about..”
At those words, Deokhoon chuckles with his arms crossed..
“What if there is a ghost story that we know nothing about or have never heard of? That's right, manager..”
The guy who opens the lid of the marker pen and shines his glasses.
“Because it's a ghost story that doesn't exist in this world..”
At those words, the members looked at each other with puzzled expressions..
“ There is no?”
“Okay, manager. There is no such ghost story in this world. The last problem the manager faced. It's a kind of 'transformation of past papers' that combines elements of various ghost stories..”
The guy who said that started writing something on the whiteboard..
1. A ghost story that makes you unhappy when you remember it (Stone Whale Bridge, Purple Mirror)）
2. Sea turtle soup problem (seagull fish ghost story)）
“What should I study first in order to solve questions that have been modified or advanced? After all, the best way to study for an exam is to first look at the original questions before they are transformed, right? Now, remember these two keywords I just wrote down.
“Cucumber, fuck you.”
Deokhoon stopped talking and pointed with his arms crossed..
“There are three. ”
At those words, Gyeongwon made an expression saying, “Oops,” and then wrote one more word next to it..
3. curse
“Now, remember these three keywords I just wrote down. Like a science teacher who stays in his office and is indifferent to his students, it is a modified version of the past exam that shows no consideration for the person solving it..”
After saying that, Gyeongwon began to write down the details of each ghost story..
“I'll even write down the original ghost stories for those who are hearing them for the first time. First, read through.”
At those words, Seon-ah stuck her head out and frowned to read the writing..
1. A ghost story that makes you unhappy when you remember it (Stone Whale Bridge, Purple Mirror)）
- If you remember the words ‘dolphin bridge’ or ‘purple mirror’ until you are 20, you will become unhappy. Depending on the region where the story is handed down, there is a back story that says that in the year you turn 20, you will receive a phone call asking, “Do dolphins have legs?”.
2. Sea turtle soup problem (seagull fish ghost story)）
- A story about a couple who were stranded on a deserted island and only the husband survived after eating sea turtle soup (or seagull meat), but it turned out to be his wife's human flesh and committed suicide after learning the truth..
“It's so fucking complicated, fuck..”
When Jinhee let out a word of complaint, Gyeongwon sighed and said,.
“Maybe it's because I don't usually study.?”
‘what?' Jinhee narrows her eyes with an expression that says.
But the person holding the mic is a gangster, and even Jinhee doesn't seem to be able to say anything in this situation..
“Two ghost stories I wrote. Everyone understood what it was about.?”
“Well, it's not that difficult..”
He nodded at my answer and continued his explanation..
“The problem the manager faced was a mixture of these two ghost stories. Look carefully.”
The guy who said that immediately scribbled words here and there with the marker pen he was holding in his hand.
started to underline.
First, if you remember until you are 20, you will receive a phone call..
Second, the content of the seagull fish ghost story.
“If you put this together appropriately, you will now have the problem that the manager saw..”
[36]
It is said that if you remember this problem until the age of 20, in the year you turn 20, you will suddenly receive a phone call asking for the answer..
A blind man was stranded on a desert island with his wife..
The man took a bite of a piece of meat and committed suicide by stabbing himself in the neck with the fork in front of him..
Why did the man commit suicide??
“… I understand. The last question on my test paper was not an original ghost story, but rather the science teacher had stitched together two existing ghost stories. This is it?
But what about that?-”
“Oh my gosh.”
Deokhoon stopped talking and pointed out something with his arms crossed..
“There are three.”
When I heard those words, I made an expression that said, “Oops,” and looked at the third keyword..
3. curse
“Deokhoon is right, manager. There are a total of two ghost stories that can be found in the story. But when you think about the strange behavior the science teacher showed afterwards... Ultimately, the problem may actually be something close to a form of curse..”
curse!
“A curse... what is that.”
“Show the other person a story that will kill you if you read it? Thinking that this could be expressed as 'putting a curse' on the other person, we tried to reconstruct the story with a focus on the curse..”
“That's right, manager. In fact, all you saw was part of the ghost story the science teacher made up. The original the teacher was holding, glasses and I reconstructed it by weaving it into a ghost story in reverse order..”
Gyeongwon is again writing something in the blank space on the whiteboard..
“Now, manager. If you read this, everything will make sense. This is the ghost story held by the science teacher that was ultimately concocted and used to kill the manager..”
Is there someone you want to curse?.
Here is a curse that can kill a person without anyone knowing.
If you meet a few conditions, you can easily kill your opponent no matter where they are..
First, tell the other person the following ghost story..
“It is said that if you remember this story until you are 20, you will receive a phone call asking for the correct answer. A blind man was stranded on a desert island with his wife..
···The man took a bite of a piece of meat and committed suicide by stabbing himself in the neck with the fork in front of him..”
Did the other person tell you a ghost story??
Then, the year the other person turned 20, he called and asked why the man committed suicide..
If the other person remembers this problem and fails to guess it at the same time, the curse is successful..
However, please be aware that if the other person tells you the correct answer, the curse will come back to you..
“This is a ghost story the teacher made up……
As I muttered quietly, Kyungwon nodded..
“The curse that is usually expressed in the media is that the conditions are strict and the risks are high in case of failure..
It's just a guess we wrote down with that in mind, but it's probably certain. I wrote it based on the death of the manager just now..”
“Then, even though I answered correctly, I was asked the question again.……
“In fact, the manager was exchanging questions and answers without realizing it. Think back to the conversation.”
［I wrote a ghost story on my exam paper. what is the reason?]
[European Union… Of course, the reason I wrote a ghost story on the test paper was to kill you. What is really problematic??]
I asked the teacher, ‘What is the reason?’ and he answered, ‘European Union.’.
And this time, the teacher asked the question, ‘What is the real problem?’.
At this time, I didn't answer and died..
“I see It became a format where we took turns exchanging questions and answers..”
I roughly understood it, but it was still too complicated in my head..
“Why on earth did he do such a troublesome thing??”
He splits and divides the parts of the ghost story, combines them, refines them into a curse, and casts it on me..
why?
Why do something so complicated??
“Actually we don't know that.”
Even Gyeongwon could not help but shake his head here..
“No, rather, is it possible to combine and use ghost stories like that in the first place? This actually works?”
“It was effective. Actually, the manager died because of this..”
“Phew.”
I held my forehead and sighed..
“Cheer up, Jun.……
“okay. Thank you, Seonaya.”
“Anyway, manager. The common belief is that if a curse fails, there is a cost to the caster. In this case, if it fails, the positions of the caster and the target seem to be reversed. The result is a painting that exchanges questions and answers..”
“I see Then, if you answer the first question correctly and then ask a nonsensical question on your turn, you can immediately go on a reverse tour..”
“Kukkukkuk... Hitoo Norowa-”
Suddenly, Jinhee flew over and hit Deokhoon on the head..
puck -
“야이 개씨발 새끼야, 한국말 써!”
“I'm sorry... I was going to say the proverb: “He who wants to curse, prepare two graves”... … Deokhoon suddenly becomes kinder..
“Do you understand, manager? I still don't know why that person wants to kill the manager in such a cumbersome way. But I pretty much figured out what's going on..”
“Okay, thank you. Kyung-won, Deok-hoon. Well done to both of you.”
I took up the baton..
Now it's my turn to make a decision.
I have found out how the science teacher is trying to kill me and how to destroy it..
How to respond here?
Are you going to quietly wait for the question and then immediately counterattack and pass the curse on??
or not…….
I talked about the conclusion I came to after thinking about it..
“Guys. Let’s take turns asking and answering questions with the teacher..”
“what?”
Suna looks worried..
“why do something so dangerous……
“If I pick up the phone and say the correct answer and then hang up, or if it's my turn and I answer back with an absurd question that the science teacher wouldn't be able to answer, the situation will of course be resolved. But that doesn't solve any questions.”
Yes.
this person.
Why are you trying to kill me in the first place??
And why are you using such a complicated method??
How to understand and use the phenomenon of ghost stories?
Is a ghost story a phenomenon where cutting and pasting makes it effective??
There are many thoughts that come to mind right now.
radish
These are questions that will be buried in the ground if a science teacher dies from a heart attack for talking back..
You shouldn't do that..
We must dig up as much as we can to find out why..
I quietly looked at the members and spoke with a serious expression..
“Hey guys. Would you guys die first this time slot??”
