Episode 111 A new club.
* * *
“Urban Legend Club? What the hell is that club doing?”
Aina asked while squinting one eye.
It seemed like it was a waste to pay attention to such unusual stories.
“He’s been on the internet lately.”
“It must have been quite a leisurely thing to have time to care about such useless nonsense.”
“No, is there a reason?”
There was no denying that the Internet had a huge impact.
Urban legends tend to spread through people’s mouths, and the fastest way to do this is on the Internet.
Therefore, I was exposed to a situation where I had no choice but to encounter a lot of those kinds of ghost stories.
“Why?”
“Most urban legends are plausible jokes, but some of them are useful.”
“Give me an example.”
“There was something unusual in the photos that were uploaded recently. It was a picture from a catalog made by a general store called Jeffrey’s shop, and it was made very well. But it was a bit strange.”
“What was there?”

Most of them still had sullen faces.Still, Beatrix, who was curious, focused on the story, so I continued what I was saying.
“Everything else was normal, but there was an unusual text saying that the channel was sold for money.”
“It’s a nonsensical story about connecting places like the Dark Web where illegal transactions such as drugs, guns, and murders flow. What’s so strange about that?”
“Listen to the story first. Anyway, so someone looked at the catalog and bought the channel. It was an exchange that could be accessed for 2 hours only at 6 am and 6 pm, but surprisingly, there was no such content.”
“Then what are you doing?”
“On the surface, it was a channel that traded things like antiques, but I found out that it was a place to buy memories in the morning and sell them in the afternoon. As the owner of the store was doing things like buying antiques at the same time, I thought it was a channel created for a purpose like viral marketing, so I didn’t get caught.”
Of course, buying or selling memories is also illegal.

Manipulating memories is a very easy ability to commit criminal acts.“Though that may not seem like a big deal, it’s a huge crime.”
“So, this urban legend became a hot topic after it turned out to be true. Well, there really wasn’t anything to be concerned about. I heard that people who wanted to get out of trauma sold painful memories, and other than that, artists who had run out of some ideas ended up buying a shocking experience that was hard to come by in reality.”
“So, what does this story have to do with creating an urban legends club?”
“The idea is to run a club similar to the person who opened the channel. Bring in some interesting-looking city legends, and I’ll give you a reward, some credit, or something like that, and I’ll look into it.”
Even if you have a lot of information about the future, you can’t figure out everything that’s happening in the world.
Of course, even if you can get various news from people like Aina, Nihilis, and Leon nearby, there is a limit to the data you can get only from that.
Of course, the placenta of urban legends has a big disadvantage that the details of the original are lost, but the information gathering power of these people above will be able to get close to the essence of the rumor.
“Looks fun! It’s like a detective in a mystery novel.”
“Well… From what I’ve heard, it doesn’t seem like such a bad idea.”
“I think it would be a good idea to get other people’s attention as well.”
“I think that’s a good idea. If it’s a rumor or a dangerous story, it’s enough not to bring it out outside, and if it’s something people know about, you can pick up interesting issues and put them in the academy newspaper. In this way, additional credits can be expected.”
Katarina, who was quietly listening, proposed an unexpected agenda.
It’s a newspaper… .
Are you sure it’s plausible?
“I will. The food club wasn’t as good as I thought. After eating all sorts of things, they tried to taste something like an insect. I can’t do that.”
“You look fine. It’s not that my credits go out anyway, aren’t the club leaders’ credits or the cost of activities supported by the academy? If you can listen to funny stories for free and earn credits, there is no reason not to.”
It was Chun Hyeon-woo who was going to try a free ride right away.
I had no intention of rejecting it.
After all, the credits circulate, and there is no loss because Chun Hyeon-woo joins the group.
“Everything is good, but there is one problem. Did you find your supervisor?”
“no.”
“Then that is the biggest problem.”
“While playing around, I asked why I had a good idea, but what if I forgot the most important thing?”
There was a fire in the back with a clicking sound.
So, why didn’t you think about the most important thing?
Surprisingly, Vincent, who values achievements, will not allow such a club, and Alice is a person who has given up on running even a movie watching club that requires little or no management, so even if asked to create a club, she would refuse… .
There is no one to ask for this.
No, actually, there was only one.
It’s just that he’s a very insecure person to get close to.
“I told Professor Serena to do it for me! After all, you don’t have any other positions other than the U-class professor.”
“I’m also a professor who is close with Park Seong-jin… You know us too, so I think you’ll get permission.”
Also, is there no other way than this?
I thought I’d have to work a little harder.
It’s not that I hate Serena, either, but whenever Aina and Serena are together, there’s always a spark, which makes it uncomfortable for me to fall.
“But, are you all going to join the club I’m making?”
“What are you so surprised about? you have no friends If you don’t join us, you won’t be able to fill the number of people.”
“Hyun-woo, even if it’s true, you should turn around and tell those stories.”
For some reason, the more I talked, the more water seemed to come out of my eyes, so I decided to finish my talk.
“Okay. I’ll ask Professor Serena in a moment.”
“The list is mine because I write down all the people here. Instead, don’t call until the club room is filled with all the furnishings.”
“What do you need?”
At the most, what kind of equipment is needed for a club that is enough to listen to other people’s stories.
Wouldn’t it be enough to fill some sweets or something?
“Gizon Box.”
“To save us, we have to buy a lot of food.”
“Let’s get some tea ready. By the way, I do not drink unless it is a FOP grade tea.”
It was a firm answer, as if everyone was determined.
Isn’t this a scene where you can get a glimpse of how people become sincere in a place like a true bastard?
“Pooh, yes. I will go.”
Once the requirements are too many.
It looks like all the credits I’ve accumulated are disappearing all at once.

The two towering mountain peaks were going up and down with a steady breath.
There are certainly two people I know who own such a high hill, but there is only one person who smells a fragrant, subtle, strange scent from that hill.
“What’s up?”
“I’m thinking of starting a club. I was wondering if you could be my advisor.”
“What club is it? Give it to me.”
Serena snatched the activity plan from her hand and went away.
“Urban Legend Club?”
“yes that’s right. It’s a club that investigates popular rumors and decides whether they are true or not.”
“So, are you going to pick some good ones out of them and put them in the academy newspaper?”
“Yes. Because stories like this are popular with people of all ages.”
She chewed the jerky and looked at the action plan.
The appearance of sharp shark teeth tearing meat in half was more suitable for the onomatopoeic word snip-duck rather than the mimic ‘jilgungjilgunggeung’, but to use such an expression in the process of chewing something, it was awkward as it was, it was something else, so with my insufficient vocabulary, that’s all. There was no way to show
“Did you get all the consent from the members?”
“sure.”
“But what is the cost of this activity? After all, this is acting as an entertainment venue. Then why don’t you just need something like a patana knife? Let’s say we’ve yielded a hundred times to tea and teapots. Why are you asking me to buy a game console?”
“It hurts.”
He tried to hold back the laughter that leaked out, but in the end he burst into laughter.
All you need is a patana knife to play the game.
It is a theory, but no matter how you look at it, it was not what the educator was saying.
“What is funny? right? You guys aren’t going to work as spies by buying some kind of eavesdropper or biosignal jammer, and at the very least, it’s not the end of rummaging through the Deep Web. Well, if you have no choice but to get involved with poor-quality friends, you can either shave your head with a patta or leave the knife buns.”
“They need them.”
“Yeah, it’s not me who approves anyway, it’s the academy. You will figure it out.”
Serena gave her one evil smile, then shoved the signed action plan into the drawer.
“But don’t do anything too risky. Understand?”
“Would you like to do that?”
“Of course the other kids won’t. You wouldn’t do it.”
“ah… Maybe it is.”
Of course I would.
In the first place, it’s a club that was created to intervene if it’s a moderately risky thing.
“I don’t know what I don’t know. I know it all.”
“It doesn’t matter if you die or become sick.”
“Hey, you are my favorite disciple. I will never see you go anywhere and be beaten.”
Serena said that and hugged me tight.
Like it was at the Olympiad, no matter how you look at it, it’s more like a bare hug than a hug.
The large natural cushion acts as a cushion, and the pheromone scent from under the shirt acts as a pain reliever, but it can’t do anything about the pressure on the back.
However, I couldn’t help but ask him to let it go.
It’s better to end your life with a woman in the arms of a woman than to get stabbed somewhere and die prematurely, right?
“Thank you for your concern… .”
These were the words he uttered after he took a deep breath.
“worry? Don’t worry. Because I plan to discipline myself diligently until I start working as a club. Being strong is the way for me not to worry.”
Someone said that true supporter is to eliminate the source of damage.
I always thought that meant to eliminate enemies, but I didn’t know that it meant removing allies taking damage.
I had a foreboding that I would probably resign from my job in the near future.
