Second ghost story - The smiling woman (5)
Morning classroom returns.
As I sat quietly gathering my thoughts, the door opened and my homeroom teacher came into the class, smiling brightly and holding a box containing a wad of paper..
“Alright everyone. Each person in front of you should come forward and take out this piece of paper..”
Lost in thought, I pulled out a random piece of paper and moved to my seat. Surprisingly, it was the same seat and Deokhoon was sitting next to me..
it was a bit strange.
Because this time I pulled out the paper without really thinking, trying to figure out how to face that smiling woman..
Even if you check the numbers again, they are the same numbers as the paper you drew last time. 26.
‘···Is it a coincidence? what.’
It was strange, but right now the first thing to do is to think about what to do with that smiling woman.
was.
Putting all my doubts aside, I sat down..
Soon after the first period seat allocation was over, it was time for a break..
Normally I would have gone to say hello to Seon-ah, but now I didn't because I was thinking about how to deal with that woman..
While I was thinking about it, I glanced at Seon-ah and saw Hayun still calmly reading a book..
And we see Sun-ah squirming uncomfortably as she is unable to speak to her partner whom she met for the first time..
After recess, it was time for English class..
Students in the class stand up one by one and introduce their names in English..
“ah… I am Yun Seon-ah... ah… Oh my... ice cream..”
While the class was going on, all I could think about was the manual's ghost story..
How can you act naturally as if you didn't see such a ghostly woman?…….
The very next recess, she will climb up the roof of the cafeteria outside the school and come inside..
Before that happens, I plan to meet her one-on-one outside of school..
To fight before anyone sees you, all you have to do is run quickly as soon as the bell rings and climb over the wall. It is possible if you time it right..
The problem is smoke.
Will I be able to remain calm when I see a crazy woman with a bright white face, as tall as a basketball player, and a big smile on her face, brandishing a box cutter?.
You may instinctively startle, your gaze may become uneasy, your actions may become hesitant, or there may be limitations in some way..
How to completely pretend not to see a woman while looking straight at her without closing your eyes.
You have to think of that..
‘Is there such a way?……?’
Even as I am shaking my head in shock, time is passing by..
Finally, 10 minutes before class ends.
I can see the English teacher trying to end the class by explaining the curriculum of the class ahead..
‘Don't finish, fuck……
I hope English class never ends like this.…….
One-on-one with such a scary woman... Why on earth did I…….
I want to avoid it if I can.
Ah, mommy…….
Why on earth am I in this situation, why?…….
I looked at the clock again and saw 5 minutes before the end..
Five minutes have already passed!
‘Clock crazy bitch!’
I just cursed at the watch and trembled with my hands and feet..
[Ding-dong, ding-dong~ Ding-dong, ding-dong~]
at last.
Without even realizing it, break time came..
I took a deep breath and stood up..
Actually, I don't want to go at all..
All I can think about is how to escape..
In my heart, I decided that I had no choice but to go anyway..
They run away again, a strange phenomenon engulfs this school, the entire area is shut down, and the family moves out.…….
Then, three years later, he encounters a giant monster and dies, and returns to the entrance ceremony again.…….
I won't let that happen any longer..
Now, here is the first step.
The first step against this crazy system and ghost stories.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
The moment I was about to leave the classroom door, taking a deep breath..
“Hey, Jun.……
When I looked back, Seon-ah was standing there..
“Canteen, do you want to go together?……?”
···Exciting.
My heart was momentarily shaken by Suna’s words..
I really don't want to face such a scary monster alone..
At least someone, if someone would come with me…….
A weak heart makes your hands shake.
“Hey, if it’s bothersome, I can go alone.……
When I didn't answer, Suna said in a panic..
I shook my head..
“no. go… let's go together.”
“Ah,” Suna smiles slightly..
Let's go together. Let's go together... Let's go together, let's go together please…….
I committed it.
I am taking Suna to that dangerous place..
‘…But if you think about it realistically, you're definitely going to urinate alone..’
In fact, I am so grateful to Seon-ah who asked me to go with her at this exact moment..
‘Okay, on second thought, Seon-ah doesn't necessarily have to face that woman.!’
Suna can stand behind the wall and watch while I climb over the wall and face the woman outside..
That someone is standing behind me.
It's not like you have to carry everything alone..
I thought that that alone would be quite powerful for my heart..
‘That's not a bad thing, right? little… I'm just helping. I don't really think he's using Seon-ah by tricking her.
I can do it.’
By the way, how did Suna come up with an amazing suggestion to me to go to the snack bar at this timing??
‘Normally, I should have said hello and talked to him first during break time, but this time he stayed quiet. Is that why you couldn’t stand the awkwardness with your partner and came to me first?……
As I was thinking about this and that, I finally arrived near the store..
The place was still crowded with students..
“Seonya, this way.”
I avoided the students and went towards the deserted wall..
Suna tilts her head and follows me..
I arrived at the wall and measured the height with my eyes..
It might be a bit difficult since he's about the same height as me, but there are a lot of gaps between the bricks, so I think I can climb over them if I step on them carefully..
‘···Last time I saw her, her head was sticking out of this wall. Is he 2 meters tall?.’
I calmed down for a moment and talked..
“Seon-ya, can you wait here for a moment? I have some work to do. gold
I'll come to my room.”
I wouldn't even dare to do it alone, but having someone behind me is there for me..
I felt like I could gain courage just by doing that..
“Seonya?”
A round female student who just stares at me instead of answering..
“Seonaya? Will you wait here?……?”
‘Wait, the situation is a bit
I didn't have enough time to spare, so I dragged Seon-ah along as soon as I could, but this is it..
A picture of someone secretly smoking a cigarette while watching his friend watch..
Yes.
The only thing a student can sneak over the wall during break time is to smoke..
At the entrance ceremony, Lee Joon is a bad guy who seduces a somewhat immature girl he's only known for a day, makes her watch, and then climbs over the wall to smoke a cigarette..
Suna is still silently staring at me
I look at you.
“Look, I didn't mean to do anything bad. I have something to check for a moment……
I was about to make an excuse but soon stopped..
The woman will come out soon. no time.
“Sorry, Seon-ya. Please stay here for a moment. Let's come back to the store next time. I'll buy it for you then. Sorry.”
After confirming that Suna nodded slowly, although her expression was expressionless, I quickly climbed over the wall..
Behind this is a bush leading to the mountain behind the school.
I see a whitish figure coming through the trees in the distance..
It's hard to see because it's hidden between tree branches and bushes, but it's clearly the woman..
‘Are we meeting already? shit.’
I haven't thought of a proper way yet.
‘What should I do, what should I do, crazy……
Slowly, the woman begins to reveal herself..
Just before we meet.
‘Crazy lady's bright smile and bright white face.’
When it came to a situation where there were no women in sight, my brain, which had endured a long school life by brainstorming and cramming, became more active than ever and began to run wild..
Exciting.
Exciting.
Exciting.
‘Fuck it, I have to find it. We must find a way!!’
In my head, my memories from the moment this damn game started
It passes by quickly.
‘Nakseonggo full of mystery and secrets
welcome to school
‘I'm usually slow to move……
‘Ambivalence, that’s right. Thanks to that personality, I was able to keep my hair down, but……
4When you see a woman smiling strangely, pretend not to see her and act naturally until she passes by.……
‘Don’t ever pretend to know… Kuk kuk kuk.’
My brain is thinking of cases superhumanly in the face of survival instinct.
all.
Among the countless passing memories, the subconscious catches just one dizzying scene..
That scene was last night, me lying on the bed in my room, muttering to myself..
‘Crazy, there's nothing useful about it. ’

UI 9?
okay! This is it!
Wouldn’t this work out somehow?.
Jump and run.
Before I knew it, the woman had reached the street where the tree was right in front of me..
I deliberately looked away from the smiling woman..
I felt like I wouldn't be able to maintain my composure if I saw that bizarre figure in front of me..
‘main screen.’
I put what I thought into action right away..

Sigh-
At the same time, a woman suddenly runs up to me and puts her face right in front of me..
I opened the graphics options and the brightness was
I raised the level to the maximum..
Wow-
In an instant, my vision turned white and the whole world turned white..
I raise my head, widen my eyes, and face the woman..
I don't see anything.
But now I am definitely standing with my eyes open for the woman..
I can't see it.
I definitely can't see it.
But I didn't cover my eyes or avoid looking..
This system will definitely work beyond my perception and beyond everything, including reality and time..
I stood proudly with my eyes open towards the woman in front of me, but at the same time used the system to block her from view..
[if… This is it…….]
At that moment, I hear the woman gasping and saying something..
‘ Yikes!’
I also opened the audio options and the sound
I reduced it as much as possible.
Jiing-
Now I see nothing, I hear nothing.
All I feel is completely white space and white noise.
calm.
It feels like meditating.
Among my five senses right now, sight and hearing are my go-to. Both are blocked.
Couple this with the psychological stability of having Suna behind me, and I never felt impatient.
He became very calm as if asking,.
Whoop whoop, whoop whoop.
Breathe in and breathe out.
Breathe in, breathe out.
I slowly gather my mind.
I waited for a while, but there was no response..
‘···You probably didn't pass me by?’
I was a little worried because it was so quiet, so I tried lowering the brightness just a little, but I saw something vaguely shaped like a human face right in front of me, so I quickly turned up the brightness again..
‘No way, this bastard… Are you looking at my face to see my reaction??’
He was such a petty bastard..
He puts his face to mine and looks into my eyes, wondering if he really didn't see himself..
At this level, it is enough to induce a reaction so that people will notice you..
No matter how much of an acting master he is, he can't help but be shocked if such a bizarre woman stares at him with a big smile on his face..
It was a game that could never be won from the beginning with pure acting ability..
But I am safe now, having taken advantage of the system's shortcuts..
‘Are you sticking your face in? Wow, you got caught in the bitch, the fucking lady..’
Let's give it a try, crazy bitch..
One hundred days, look into my eyes. 'Cause I really can't see you.
Whoop whoop.
Whoop whoop.
Breathe in slowly again and exhale.
my mind is calm.
the world is peaceful.
‘Oh, how about it? Are you still looking into my eyes??’
You're an idiot.
At this point, I even got a sense of enjoying the situation..
Safe, totally safe..
This is finally the moment for me to give this damn strange phenomenon a blow.!
“Ugh~ Ugh~ Ugh~”
I pretend to be calm and hum a song.
Look as much as you want~ I can’t see or hear you.~
“Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm~”
Yeah, I can’t hear you.~
Yeah I can't see it~
gone.
At that moment, I feel the hem of my clothes lightly brushing against my hand..
Yes.
I could still feel the sense of touch..
‘This guy is really trying to get me to react..’
I was startled by an unexpected situation and pulled my hand back, but naturally, I pulled it back in that same posture.
started dancing.
‘It was natural, it was natural.’
From the tip of my right hand, which I pulled out in shock, the wave naturally spread all the way to my left hand..
Then, starting with my left hand, I followed the wave again and bent my right hand, and suddenly, unable to hold back the deep anger boiling deep in my chest, I punched the woman in the same direction with my right hand..
puck -
“It's crazy, but why do you keep saying this?!”
Because of this crazy bitch, Seona and I
How many times have you died and suffered so much?!
If that's not enough, I'm dancing around restlessly, wondering what if someone notices me as if I'm trying to please someone..
I got so angry that I tried to punch in the same direction again with all my might, but then I calmed down for a moment..
‘Let's calm down. Let's calm down... You have to pretend not to see it. Pretend you didn’t see it.’
I started shadow boxing.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss. Hiss hiss~”
I thought as I punched the white void where I couldn’t see anything..
I didn't hit you because I recognized you were there..
I'm an ordinary student whose hobby is to sneak out to the hill behind the school during recess and do shadow boxing, but you just happened to get hit in the direction I threw my fist..
Do you understand? I didn't recognize you, I didn't see you.
‘Really!’
‘When in doubt, look into my eyes!’
‘Look at my eyes! It's nothing?’
But I'm not blind, my eyes are open
It's not even covered up.
I'm pretending not to see even though my eyes are completely wide open.!
Puck- Puck- Puck Puck-
Puck_ Puck -
After shadow boxing in the air for a while, I just felt like shit and started beating him up out loud..
“Fuck you! Fuck you! Don't give a damn!”
Puck- Puck- Puck Puck- Puck- Puck -
The woman was like a monster that surpassed human common sense, and the inside of the clothes she was wearing was full of muscles as hard as steel..
Thanks to you, it crackles every time I hit it with my fist.
I bumped into one part and my hand actually hurt..
‘The fact that there is no response even after being beaten so blatantly means that this method works..’
Does it mean that all I have to do is pretend not to see what the word means?.
Puck- Puck- Puck Puck- Puck- Puck-
“Why on earth are you coming to a quiet school to install it? This is where students study, so get out of here.!”
After punching happily for a while, I suddenly became worried..
‘Could it be that I am beating up Seon-ah right now?
Isn't it true??’
Since I can't see or hear anything, I may be mistaken as to who I'm hitting..
Seon- a was waiting for me and came next to me because she was worried about what was going on, but no matter how many times I called, there was no answer, so she came closer and could have been beaten by me..
When those ominous thoughts occurred to me, I decided to check it out..
‘I guess I'll just have to check it out for a moment..’
When I slightly restricted the brightness and sound, I saw a shadow of a tall man, perhaps 2 meters tall, looming in front of me.
I felt like I was screaming..
‘Definitely not Seona.’

A sideways kick that you only see in movies. Imitate the stances of boxers you see on TV, and throw your fists as much as you want with clumsy staff..
It also makes strange sound effects like “Achoot”
I tried imitating the special moves of the characters in the game..
As I was kicking and sweating for a while, a notification window appeared in front of me..

Even though I turned up the brightness to the maximum and my field of view was completely white, the notification window was as honest as usual.
The crab was floating in front of me in a mixture of black and blue..
‘'Are you saying this is separate from the game screen?' At that moment, the effect of fireworks exploding appeared in front of my eyes, and then another window appeared..

···oh oh!
I'm not sure, but it's an unexpected reward.!
‘Is the situation over for now?!’
I went into graphics options and audio options and returned everything to normal.
My vision returned to normal and I could feel the sounds around me coming into my ears..
And I looked around, but there was no woman in sight..
In front of me, there are only green bushes and trees.
Only the peaceful back yard of the school was spread out..
‘You kicked them out.!’
