037 – Magic Wand
037 – Magic Wand
Teacher Hong Miri seemed to have an easy-going personality, but was also kind-hearted.
We had to listen to nagging for almost 10 minutes.
“Hey. Youngwon Ha. “How can you cause trouble like this when your mother is also in the hospital?”
“I’m sorry.”
When you make a mistake, you have to lie flat on your face.
Soon, Teacher Hong Mi-ri’s eyes turned to Jeong-seok as well.
“Vice captain of Class D. I thought it would be a little different for you, but was I wrong? What are you going to do if you’re here like this? “Two men are trying to lure an innocent girl into a broken building like this!”
Two men lured a female student into a broken building.
It was something that sounded strange.
However, Dahee, who had been listening to the story for a while, intervened.
“I asked to go. Youngwon and Seok came because I asked them to go. “I lost something and needed to find it, but I was scared to go alone.”
“Dahee, you?”
Surrr-.
Teacher Hong Mi-ri’s eyes narrowed.
Just when I thought her gaze was as sharp as a snake, the teacher clicked her tongue.
“Okay. “It’s late, so let’s all go home today.”
Oh.
Can I finally escape this nagging hell?
“Yoo Da-hee, you stay. I think you should tell the chairman. I heard that the chairman is unwell, but if you cause trouble like this, the family won’t like it very much. “You know better, right?”
“… ….”
Yoo Da-hee looked slightly tearful, like someone who had been wrongfully caught for doing something bad.
“Okay.”
I don’t know what it is, but let’s escape from this place quickly.
“Seok-ah. “Let’s go home now.”
If you think about it, it was a terrifying underground tour.
I was scared.
To shake off this fear… It would be best to flex the characteristics and draw items through the status window.
I have to go home quickly.
“Eternal. “Something like this.”
Sch-.
Yoo Da-hee held out something to me as I was about to leave.
It was a magic wand that appeared to be 30cm long.
“Give it back to Joohee.”
“… Okay.”
With that feeling, the untimely test of courage on Saturday evening ended!
What was obtained is as follows.
1. Mental fatigue
2. “Magic wand” With Yang Joo-hee’s name written on it.
3. Wish rights with Yoo Da-hee.
“Is this worth the benefit?”
Depending on how you use number 3, there will be a benefit or a loss.
Jeongseok said.
“It was a basement I never wanted to go back to.”
“That’s right. But if everything that Yoo Da-hee says is correct, doesn’t it seem like Yang Joo-hee’s older sister, Yang Yang-hee, went into the basement of the old school building to look for something? “What on earth was she looking for?”
I felt like the experience I had today could be the “Missing piece of the puzzle.”
When I asked puzzle master Jeongseok, he said, “Well….” He blurted out.
“I don’t know.”
When I saw Jeong-seok, his brain seemed paralyzed by the fear he felt while still underground.
What on earth did you come looking for?
“According to Yoo Da-hee, he said he came looking for something like a round ball. Jeongseok. “The incident about the disappearance of the high school girl’s head that you mentioned happened five years ago, right?”
“… Okay. It was winter. “At that time, the whole world was in an uproar.”
I was living in Seoul at the time, so I didn’t know there was such a fuss going on in this city. To begin with, I didn’t know much about the city called ‘Gaeryong Metropolitan City’.
But looking at it now… I thought it might be somewhat related.
“And the reason Yang Yang-hee’s sister disappeared… The following spring. “Isn’t there a connection between Yang Yang-hee’s sister’s case and that headless sister’s case?”
“Are you saying it’s the same culprit?”
Jeongseok’s eyes, which had been relaxed as if he had been blinded, became sharp again.
It appears that the hatred toward the ‘culprit’ is real.
“No. I’m not saying the culprit is the same. Lets think. Hair lost in winter. And the following spring, a high school girl went missing while looking for something. Perhaps….”
“Ah. Ha Young-won, what you’re saying is that Sister Yang Yang-hee may have come into the basement of the old school building to look for her head, right?”
“Okay. The headless sister and the missing sister Yang Yang-hee could have been friends or something. Jeongseok. You too will come look for my head when it disappears. Yes?”
“… ….”
Jeongseok had a very simple expression.
Are you saying that if my head disappears now, you won’t find it for me?
No, rather than that, I think my guess is too plausible without any physical evidence.

But-.
Isn’t the first step in solving a puzzle to first fit everything that looks good and then replace it in an “Or-no” Fashion?
“But first of all, I think I know what happened to Yang Joo-hee and how she disappeared. And it doesn’t seem like Yoo Da-hee was lying. I don’t know where she disappeared to….”
Sch-.
I waved the magic wand in my hand.
It would be better to give it to me today.
“Hey. “Let’s go to Joohee’s house.”
“… “I have to go back home now, right?”
Jeongseok made an embarrassed expression.
It’s already 10 o’clock at night.
It seemed like he wanted to go home because it was late.
“Okay. I get it. If you have something to say, say it in a message. “Always leave notifications on in the chat room.”

On the way to Yang Joo-hee’s shabby apartment, I opened the status window.

Strangely, looking at these letters makes me feel calm.
I had 577 points, so I was full even without dinner.

What I will do today is… as soon as… Trait Draw!
The more characteristics you have, the more cards you can use.
The 《Hold Your Breath》 that I acquired just before may not seem like a big deal, but I used it in a very useful way.
“I wonder what will come out?”
Pyororong-!
Soon, I thought something like a roulette, which often appears when drawing various draws in games, appeared and started spinning round and round.
“This is always the time when I feel the most nervous.”
Dream-Tak.
Stopped!
Pabababat-!
And there were fireworks effects that I had never seen before!
“What is it? Are there any rare characteristics? Was the gacha successful!?”
This was written where the arrow on the roulette machine pointed.
『Strong Heart》: The heart becomes stronger. Your stamina increases significantly and you become immune to all heart diseases.』
“Oh. Oh wow. “Ouch!”
I also felt that way during “Hold Your Breath”.
Once I acquired this trait, I understood in my head that this is such-and-such an ability, as if I had seen the answer.
Should I say that I feel it becoming a part of my body, just as people easily use their hands and feet?
Excited. Excited-.
When I placed my hand on my chest, I felt my heart beating more intensely than usual.
Lifelong immunity from all heart diseases.
Good!
Stamina also increased?
Does this mean that your energy has become stronger?
Let’s focus on the lower abdomen.
Then, suddenly, I was able to see that it was not something I would just enjoy.
“… “I won’t be able to avoid wet dreams from now on.”
Somehow I knew that.
My passive skill, 《Wet Dream Prevention》, woke me up by making me feel extreme fear and my heart pounding when I felt like I was about to have a wet dream.
But my heart became very strong… It was clear that I wouldn’t be running wild about wet dreams anymore.
“… I was bored. “There is a cheat key to escape the nightmare!”
As I was making a fuss with that feeling, I quickly arrived at Yang Joo-hee’s house.
I called Joohee Yang.
-My soft heart-.
-Like clear ditch water-.
-Ditch Ditch Ditch Water-.
It’s a strange beeping sound every time I hear it.
Tap-.
Yang Joo-hee answered the phone.
━Well.
“Come down and see. It’s in front of your house now. “I have something to give you.”
━What is it?
“It’s no fun if you tell me that. Anyway, come down quickly. To give you a hint, it is thick and long. And it’s pink. “It’s hard.”
━What the f*ck.
A magic wand with the name of Yang Joo-hee written on it.
How will Yang Joo-hee react if she sees this?
I waited with some anticipation.
Has about 5 minutes passed?
A girl wearing red sweats over dolphin pants came down to the apartment.
On a weekend evening, you invite the prettiest girl in your class and meet her.
When I thought about it, what I was doing felt a little surreal.
“Why?”
Yang Joo-hee glanced at me with narrow eyes.
I felt like my mood hadn’t improved since the day I yelled at Yoo Da-hee and left.
Sch-.
I held out the magic wand to Yang Joo-hee.
“Hey. “Is this yours?”
“Isn’t that the princess magic wand?”
Yang Joo-hee’s expression suddenly relaxed.
There was a video where, when you gave an apple to a hedgehog with a lot of thorns sticking out, it suddenly relaxed and ate the apple in a panic. Yang Joo-hee’s attitude right now was exactly like that.
“It’s a princess magic wand!”
What is the Princess Magic Wand?
Is it a set item with the princess sketchbook?
Yang Joo-hee snatched the magic wand from me and looked around.
“This is my name, right? My stuff! “Where did you get this?”
“Guac!”
Yang Joo-hee suddenly grabbed me by the collar and shook me, causing me to gasp.
Yang Joo-hee’s power was stronger than I thought, so much so that my body was shaking back and forth.
“Where did you get this?”
“U… Yoo Da-hee….”
“Yoo Da-hee?”
“I went to the old school building with Yoo Da-hee. I got it from the basement of the old school building. Yoo Da-hee told me to give it to you. Why? “What on earth is this?”
“… ….”
Yang Joo-hee looked at the magic wand in silence.
Tick. When I pressed the button, the jewel on the end sparkled.
“This. This is what my sister took from me the last time I saw her. My sister loved taking things from me. Pencilcase. Eraser. Toy….”
Was Yang Joo-hee’s robbery a skill she learned from her older sister?
Yang Joo-hee also took a lot of my box cutters, erasers, pencil cases, etc.
“This is the magic wand I received on my 7th birthday. When she tried to take this away from me, I got so angry that I started talking harshly to her. That was the last time….”
Indeed.
It appears to have been a meaningful item.
I told Yang Joo-hee the story of visiting the school basement with Yoo Da-hee and Jeong-seok.
And I also slipped through my brain’s official story that Yang Joo-hee’s older sister, Yang Yang-hee, may have visited the school basement to find the head of ‘the older sister who lost her head.’
How will Yang Joo-hee react to this?
“The sister who lost her head…. I know that sister too. Because she used to come to my house often. “Bong Se-yeon.”
“Bong Se-yeon?”
“That headless sister. She’s Bong Ji-yeon’s older sister from class C. “Didn’t Jeongseok tell you that?”
I didn’t tell you that.
It was partly because I didn’t ask….
If you think about it, it was easy to guess.
The headless older sister lived next door to Jeongseok.
And Bong Ji-yeon is actually Jeong-seok’s childhood friend who often goes by his house and is annoying to her.
Bong Ji-yeon, a member of class C, lived next door to Jeong-seok!
“My sister went to find Seyeon’s head…. When you think about it… Her older sister has had something strange since long ago. She talks to herself or looks at places where no one is around. “She’s sick and alone.”
“Like someone who can see a ghost?”
“Okay. And then she disappeared.”
It is said that Yang Joo-hee’s maternal line was the head shaman for generations.
What if her older sister, Yang Yang-hee, really had that ‘talent’?
The ability to see ghosts….
A person who sees.
Watcher.
Observer
Is that really what a watcher is?
A refreshing feeling exploded in my head, as if someone had poured even cold soda!
