[ ... ,... ♬... .]

Afternoon club room. ringtone ringing.

“Take it. hurry.”

Hayun finally reaches out her slender hand and picks up my cell phone..

And she answers quietly.

“hello?”

[…….]

The science teacher was silent for a moment, perhaps because he heard a woman's voice..

[···Is this Lee Jun’s cell phone?.]

“That's right.”

Cell phone silence continues again.

I picture the science teacher rolling his head while holding his cell phone in the science lab just downstairs from us..

[Is this Lee Jun himself?.]

“yes. who are you?”

Hayun lowers her voice slightly and answers calmly, pretending to be herself..

There was a moment of silence over the phone, but soon a question was asked..

[Why did the man commit suicide??]

“A man found out that the seagull meat he ate on a deserted island was actually his wife's human flesh..”

[…….]

She is not embarrassed and calmly answers the same answer she gave me..

Silence echoes beyond the cell phone..

I gave an order to Hayun..

“Ask me one sentence in a row about why you want to kill me..”

The science teacher who initially gave a wrong answer to the question, “What is the reason?”.

It suddenly occurred to me that maybe it was because I interrupted the sentence to ask the question..

Hayoon quietly looks at me.

‘What are you doing, come on.’

I lifted my chin as if to ask what I needed to ask..

Hayun finally calmly asks the phone again..

“Tell me why you're trying to kill Lee Joon.”

[……!]

For a moment, the man on the other side of the phone takes a breath as if embarrassed..

Uddangtangtang.

There is a loud noise.

[gasp, gasp, gasp……』

The sound of the teacher breathing as if he is rushing somewhere..

I noticed again.

‘count the count.’

Hayoon nods.

“oh. buy. three……

Pronunciation is clear, as if the announcer were counting numbers..

“this. Day……

[for a moment! Just for a moment-!]

A scream echoing beyond the cell phone.

[If you pronounce egoism quickly, it becomes Lee Joon! Because I hate selfish people! So I tried to kill Lee Joon.!]

what.

Embarrassment hovering around the club room for a moment.

‘ Are you an asshole??’

We look at each other with dumbfounded faces.

It looks like someone needs to explain it to me..

But no one has any idea what the situation is..

Only Hayun was holding her cell phone with her eyebrows slightly furrowed..

[Huh, huh. What is really problematic??]

Question came again.

‘It's our turn!’

what?

If you pronounce egoism quickly, it's Lee Joon.!

So I tried to kill him!

‘That kind of idiot is recognized as the correct answer.?’

[Gasp · · · Gas*** Oh* · · /sa ·]

Hayoon looks at me as if asking what I should answer..

But I had no choice but to remain silent.

[three… this… gasp, gasp.]

A science teacher who is still rushing somewhere..

[Work... gasp, gasp.]

“···Full of problems. The correct answer is Lee Jun. You tried to kill me because it was full of problems..”

For now, Hayun answers randomly..

but.

[Ding.]

At that moment, Hayun's always calm expression distorted and she grabbed her chest..

“Ugh... Ugh... Ugh.”

brrrr.

Hayun closes her eyes and twitches..

He even foamed at the mouth and laid his head on the desk..

thud.

Parkgo collapsed..

“Ha, Hayunah!”

Gyeongwon and Seonah grabbed Hayun’s shoulders and shook her..

Jinhee and Deokhoon also stood up with surprised expressions..

[teacher! teacher! Help me, huh, huh.]

I can hear the science teacher's urgent cry through my cell phone..

The voices of several people shouting at the same time.

“This it!”

Gyeongwon snatched the cell phone from the hand of Hayun, who had fallen, and shouted..

“What are you guys! What is it?!”

A commotion is heard through the cell phone and someone shouts..

[···what! Whose turn is it?!]

[A person just died because of the problem I raised, and now it's their turn.!]

[Fuck you! Quickly change to speakerphone!]

Is it our turn to make a problem?.

As I looked at Gyeongwon, who was sweating coldly while holding his cell phone, I remembered something..

‘···no way.’

Something flashed in my mind..

This seagull ghost story, also known as the turtle soup problem.

Can we call this... a normal problem??

In the first place, the fact that it is a quiz question cited in general social knowledge is a Q&A that leaves no room for interpretation..

Even when giving a light quiz using an interlude on a radio broadcast, questions are asked with clear answers that do not require room for interpretation, such as the author of a book or the title of a song..

But this turtle soup problem.

It has a different tendency from typical quiz questions..

If we were to classify this strange problem into categories, what should we name it?.

Reasoning problem? IQ problem?

When asked what the reason (EU) is, the answer is European Union..

The reason for trying to kill Lee Joon is egoism..

Fuck you.

I quickly wrote words on the whiteboard while looking at Kyungwon sweating while holding his cell phone..

nonsense.

The members are shocked.

‘It's crazy that I'm finally realizing this.……

The reason the science teacher screamed so desperately and barely answered was not because he was trying to hide his true feelings..

I did that because I was trying to come up with an answer using nonsense..

Whether it's Golden Bell, a midterm exam, a radio quiz question, or a college entrance exam, the format of the question once decided does not change in the next round..

If it is a Golden Bell that asks general knowledge, there must be a general knowledge quiz, and if it is a midterm exam, there must be questions learned in the first semester..

If it's a Korean test, it's a Korean language question. If it's a science test, it's a science question..

And in the case of this ghost story, since it started with a sea turtle soup problem, it becomes a 'nonsense' question and answer game if you want to classify it..

Gyeongwon nods his head as if he understands, but is racking his brain as if he can't think of a proper problem..

The guy bites his lip and asks about his phone..

“Why was I surprised when I looked in the mirror and played rock-paper-scissors??”

Then, a commotion breaks out beyond the cell phone..

‘This person. you are not alone！’

It seems that the science teacher was out of breath as he ran to his fellow teachers to help him..

It's also the same team that understands this strange situation and can help..

[...He looked in the mirror and was surprised that he played rock, paper, scissors! This teacher! Anything that comes to mind quickly.]

Teachers shouting.

I don't know who it is, but there are people among the faculty who are with him..

There is a force plotting to kill me within this school.!

“Oh Sa! three! this!”

[By winning! The correct answer is to win… Or lost……』

The science teacher screamed once again, and then the next question was asked..

[Next problem! Next problem quickly… okay. With this! A person who makes a living by ignoring others?]

A person who lives by ignoring others!

Are you a scammer? While I was thinking about it, the count was already ringing..

[oh! buy! three! this!]

Kyungwon’s face turned pale and he looked at me..

But I also just look at him in a cold sweat..

At that moment, Seon-ah shouts into her cell phone instead..

“A person who betrays others! masseur!”

[Day! time out!]

«eww

Kyungwon falls down clutching his chest..

dump.

‘I said the correct answer, but why?!’

Even in the midst of confusion, I slowly understand the rules of the game..

This is the so-called relay-type game.

One person from each team goes head-to-head with the opposing team..

Just because someone said it for you didn't mean it was recognized as the correct answer..

The person holding the cell phone must give the correct answer..

As Hayoon and Gyeongwon fell, we also became noisy, and in the midst of this, Seonah quickly grabbed her phone..

[…….]

The other side suddenly becomes quiet as if they noticed that someone was holding their phone..

I waited a little longer but didn't hear anything..

They seem to be waiting for our questions..

With Gyeongwon’s death, it seems the turn has come back to us..

I quickly shook my head and gave Seon-ah a look telling her to pose a problem..

Seonah nodded and shouted..

“Ha, grandpa likes money?”

[……!]

Once again, it's noisy beyond the cell phone..

I can hear them discussing things with each other..

I shouted to Jinhee and Deokhoon.

“Jinhee! Deokhoon! You guys go down to the staff room right now and find out who these people are.!”

Deokhoon jumps up with a surprised face and Jinhee bites her lip..

“The people who are with the science teacher right now! We're all in the same group! I need to find out who everyone is!”

“i get it!”

Deokhoon and Jinhee left the club room..

Originally, I was planning to find out what these people are up to by asking questions, but if the format is nonsense, I can't expect a proper answer..

But there are forces trying to kill me inside the school, including the science teacher..

You have to at least see their faces before you die..

We have to catch them all now.!

“oh… buy… three……

Suna chanting the count.

I can hear the voices of the teachers shouting urgently again from the mobile phone..

［Internet! Quickly search on the internet... … " "this… Day……

The science teacher immediately shouts urgently.

[grandma! Because it's 'Money' to do!!]

“···Correct answer.”

[Okay, next problem! Who is the poorest king in the world??]

“minimum wage. The hottest phone in the world……?”

[···This teacher! The hottest phone in the world! what! hurry!]

Sun- ah answers right away without hesitation, and the teachers on the other side of the phone scream at the quizzes that come back..

At that time, Deok-hoon made a video call on Gyeong-won's cell phone, who was lying down.

I came to try.

‘ah. The hottest phone in the world... Video calling is the answer.’

With that in mind, I took Kyungwon’s cell phone instead..

[hello? Manager! These people are gathered in the broadcast room right now! Check all the faces!]

“Thank you, Deokhun.!”

Teachers gathered in a loud voice in front of the broadcast room appeared on the screen..

I stared at the screen of Kyungwon's latest cell phone to remember each of those people's faces..

“oh… buy… three……

[Hot call! What is that! please! This teacher! hurry!]

“this… Day······

[Sibaaaal! If you don't know, search quickly! hurry!]

“time over.”

[Ugh……!]

dump.

Through the phone, I finally hear the sound of the science teacher collapsing along with a groan..

In the video call made by Deokhoon, teachers can be seen muttering in confusion in front of the broadcasting room..

[What do we do together in the broadcasting room??]

[Don't worry about what kind of construction you're doing, just go.!]

Murmur.

When I looked closely, they weren't all the same..

There were people asking what the fuss was about, and there were also teachers trying to hide the situation by telling them to just go on their way without paying attention..

‘Who is your friend and who is your enemy?!’

I desperately watched the video being received on the cramped LCD screen..

Soon, someone answered the phone on Seona's cell phone instead of the science teacher and asked a question..

[··♦A person who just came out of the bathroom?]

“Japanese person. The name of the high school Dooly attends is?”

Suna answers quickly like a machine and then immediately asks a question..

The teacher who answered the phone seemed dumbfounded for a moment, as if he didn't know that he would come flying in so quickly, and then shouted urgently..

[what? ···No, Dooly! They say it will be around! Who sucks……』

“oh… Four... three... this… Day… time over.”

［Ugh! Ugh.］

dump.

The sound of the opponent falling once again.

［next! Next, see who gets it soon! you are the physical education teacher…….］

［hello! When a cannibal sees Usain Bolt?］

“Fast food. If milk hurts?”

［milk! What's wrong with milk! Fuck you! Does anyone know? consensus! you! Please help me quickly! What's wrong with milk! What's wrong with milk? Ugh

“time over.”

Suna mutters coldly.

dump.

I heard the sound of falling down again..

I could hear the voices of teachers yelling and passing their phones to each other over the cell phone..

[Teacher Yoon! You can't do this to me! I borrowed money before and left.……

[Holy shit! It looks dead, but it’s bullshit! Teacher Choi! you take it!]

[Fuck it, it doesn't matter to anyone, so get it quickly, you bastards! Otherwise we'll all be left behind!]

[Hey you bitch, then take it from yourself! Vice Principal You dragged us into it! you take it quickly……』

‘Yoon Seon-a is good.!’

Come to think of it, one of Suna's few hobbies was reading old humor books she had at home..

Suna blushes and laughs at my gesture of silent support as if she is moved..
