A Heroine Who Can Never Be Abandoned - A Heroine Who Can Never Be Abandoned chapter 90
90 – Dongmin Lee (25)
Dongmin Lee (25)
“Suddenly?”
I said shyly.
“Suddenly. I thought you’d like it.”
Haerin said.
“It’s only natural to kill those bugs.”
“………”
Continuing discomfort.
It was a direct tone unlike Haerin, who had been wary yet cautious.
Of course, there was one moment when she lost her temper when she saw me being raided by Jae Jae Ban-
My life wasn’t particularly in danger right now.
The writer does not die just because the text book is circulating.
… I’m sure you’ll get annoyed and angry.
What puzzled me was the change in direction.
I don’t know what effect this brief moment had on her this morning, but something definitely ‘changed’.
Whether it’s her heart or her plan.
“Is that even possible?”
I was skeptical.
‘Illegal sharing site.’
‘Text.’
From the writer’s point of view, of course, it can be said that they are enemies.
However, it is practically impossible.
Illegal sharing sites have servers in the third world, so it is difficult to arrest under the current law, and there are too many cases of sharing texts among users.
There is bound to be a lack of manpower, whether it be management or platform, to catch them.
Deterministically-
I was convinced that those two routes of spreading my novel had nothing to do with the ‘materialization’ of the novel.
PD Ban Yu-ri is working hard, but the text of my novel is floating around the internet.
Nevertheless, there are no signs of ‘present’ materialization.
The next episode villains like Jung Sung-min and Jang Hye-ok, who should appear after Park Sang-woo, do not yet exist.
The meaning of those words was clear.
Illegal sharing sites and sharing of texts are not the direct cause of materializing novels.
If you persist in suing, it may end someday, but it takes a lot of manpower and mental strength to do so.
“No, I have to do that.”
But Harin insisted.
Are you suddenly trying to vent your anger?
It was a difficult flow to keep up with.
“What comes to mind right now is the intentional planting of viruses in text files and the method of directly terrorizing or intimidating the account itself by figuring out the identity of the operator of an illegal sharing site.”
… That’s easy.
If that’s the case…
However, because it is Harin’s words, I feel somewhat trustworthy.
As much as she is a multi-talented ‘Kang Hae-rin’, she also has a considerable talent for handling electronic devices.
According to the setting, it came to my mind that she was capable enough to break through the national security computer network with her self-taught.
I haven’t had a chance to show it yet, but the skill is revealed in the war with the intellects in the middle of 『Journal』.
She seemed determined.
I became a duck egg in the Nakdonggang River because Haerin suddenly went up to work.
I was sure of something, so I could have thought it was moving that fast, but-
‘Let me explain…’
I sat down in front of my laptop, dissatisfied.
Since things have become ambiguous, I knocked on the keyboard with the thought of writing the text I was writing.
After a while, I got a text message from PD Ban Yu-ri.
[Writer?]
[I checked the contents you sent, but there is no contents?]
[I think you should check the contents of the file and send it again. If you send it, I’ll edit it right away…]
“… I can’t do that either.”
The contents of the attachment have been confirmed.
Obviously I edited the content.
If you try to insert it into the main story or send it to PD-sama for editing purposes, it will evaporate for some reason.
I lost my strength.
I searched 『Journal』 On the Internet.
Aka Ego Searching.
My pen name unfortunately does not appear.
A more famous celebrity appears.
“… You wrote it wrong.”
Ego searching is something I often do when I am not writing.
It gives risk and motivation at the same time.
I have a weak mentality, so sometimes I can’t write for a few days if I see one bad comment, but now I think the ratio of compliments to bad comments is 9:1, so it’s worth it.
Although I get blurry when I see bad comments, most of them encourage me to write.
[Title] Did you edit Kang Hae-rin’s post? (7)
[Contents] I paid for my platform and stopped watching because there was nothing to see.
[ㅇㅇ] Are you crazy bastard?
[ㅇㅇ] ㅇㅇ seems to have been modified
[Haerinjjaeng] (Red eyes emoticon)
…
I stopped scrolling.
A recent post from a certain community.
I have never edited past episodes.
Then you have to revise everything one by one until the latest version.
If it is said that it has changed, it must be that some ‘power’ that materializes the novel is doing it.
I don’t know if that’s materialization or reflection.
They ‘know’ this.
I also looked for other articles.
[Title] Kang Hae-rin is a bit suspicious (11)
[Content] Early episode Isn’t this the same as the case in the news? Is it not because of the mood?
[ㄱㄱ] ㅋㅋ I thought that too, but it’s different
ㄴ[ㅇㅇ] How is it different? Are they the same?
ㄴ[ㅇㅇ] Are you an idiot? First of all, the victim lived.
ㄴ[ㄴㄴ]ㄴ I think you’re an idiot. The victim also lived in the original novel. Dyslexia?
ㄴ[ㅇㅇ] Uh, what the f*ck is that?
ㄴ[ㄱㄱ] hahahahaha
[ㅇㅇ] I wonder if it was a copycat crime?
[Giraffe] (Red eyes emoji)
…
Next, the latest article.
I think it was written by one of the commenters.
[Title] The author changed the content (6)
[Content] I don’t know how the hell they changed all of the 1,000 episodes, but the writer edited them first. I think he took it on purpose to be similar to the real incident to attract aggro. I have a text, but the content is different.
[ㅇㅇ] The author is creepy. Its amount;
ㄴ[ㅇㅇ] Originally famous. I read a novel in the early days, but I wrote a strange novel like a psychopath.
[ㅇㅇ] Do you say that you are proud of having a text book?
ㄴ[ㄱㄱ] I paid to watch it anyway ㅅㄱ
[ㅇㅇ] But I won’t be sued for this. If you change the name a little and take it as it is;
…

I stopped searching for a while.
The number of people who noticed that 『Journal』 Reflected reality was higher than expected.
“… Text book?”
And then an unexpected variable came to mind.
Since the text is a text file that is distributed outside of the official route, updating by the author is of course impossible.
If there are any typos, if there are any loopholes in the content, they wander around in a closed form.
“…Is it not being reflected?”
Considering that Park Sang-woo’s episode in 『Journal』 Has subtly changed the way it happened in reality, the text becomes a word that maintains the ‘original’ unchanged.
Since they have the original, they have noticed the changes rather clearly.
“………”
It’s embarrassing, but if Haerin hadn’t pointed it out, if I hadn’t seen that post, I would have thought that I originally wrote the novel that way too.
That’s how I originally wrote 『Journal』.
Suddenly, fear came over me.
It seemed that ‘modification of contents’ was applied not only to web novels in circulation, but also to my head.
I haven’t completely forgotten.
“…Cosmic horror?”
What will this lead to?
A few readers have already guessed how the next event will happen based on the contents of 『Journal』.
[ㅇㅇ] If this is real, it’s a legend
[ㅇㅇ] Pay right away and go read
…
[ㄱㄱ] The content has changed again, ㅅㅅ
A writer who predicts real events.
Or a writer who copies real events.
One of the two would be my second name.
“………”
I don’t like attention, but it didn’t look good to us even if it didn’t mean that.
Is the writer living with a person named ‘Kang Hae-rin’?
And what if everything looked the same as the novel?
Of all the characters, Haerin was the only one whose name was exposed in the novel.
I couldn’t even touch the fact that the novel materialized, and even that the novel changed at will.
I went up to Haerin’s studio.
A little cool atmosphere, minimal interior.
The walls are plain blue, and there is a large desk with a computer on it.
No place to lie down, no place to sit.
Only a few shelves are visible.
Wearing rimless glasses, she looked up.
I approached her.
“Something strange is happening.”
I told you what I found out by searching.
It may not be too surprising to say that we found out, but it has a big impact on us.
“People are starting to realize that the novel is taking shape. Why are you… Doing this?”
I confessed my frustration.
Harin took off her glasses and she said.
“Actually, I’ve been forming hypotheses for a long time. However, I was careful to say it.”
“… What is it?”
“I don’t know if he is ready to accept it.”
“It’s not a matter of accepting it or not.”
I said bitterly.
Haerin or Nana didn’t want to end up like monkeys in a zoo, so we had to do everything ‘together’.
The problem was that it was still unknown whether the novel preceded or followed.
Are we following the novel?
Or do novels reflect us?
“In the future, illegal sharing sites will quickly disappear, and sharing of texts will rapidly decrease.”
Haerin said calmly.
“I took action.”
Unknown characters and a loading bar were moving on Harin’s computer screen.
“I just need to spread this.”
When I changed the extension name, it was changed to a text file.
“It’s the same principle as releasing mosquitoes genetically engineered so that they can’t give birth to a second generation.”
“… Haerin, I understand that…”
I interrupted.
“People who already know-“
“They will be eliminated soon.”
I got goosebumps at the grotesque word “Removal.”
But she soon corrected her words.
“If my guess is correct, people who don’t have the ‘original’ file are bound to revise their memories of 『Journal』 Little by little in the flow of the world. Conversely, those who have the original ‘recognize’ the change.”
“Fix? Recognition?”
“If you are not a person who ‘keeps’ the original, that is, the content of the novel you wrote and distributed for the first time, your memory will naturally change just as the content of the novel distributed on the platform changes.”
Original.
It will mean ‘text book’ I think.
If you do not have a text copy that contains the original form, the changed contents will be ‘naturally’ accepted.
Just like the original novel did.
Can’t notice anything strange.
This is because the text book is a kind of fossil.
It is different from the serialization site that can be modified.
“… Is that possible?”
“Yes. The writers were confused.”
Haerin pointed at me with her finger.
Her finger immediately went to the paper prints piled up next to the desk.
“I remembered the original.”
As expected, the print was my novel.
“You said that too. When Mr. Lee Da-mi and I face each other like this, the more people who know that the novel will become a reality, the more complicated the situation will become.”
It already seems like a very long time ago.
A time full of hope when I tried to overcome the crisis by working together with my sister and Haerin, who were bickering.
There was a time like that for us too.
How did it end up like this?
Haerin said calmly.
“It’s simple. All you have to do is get rid of it from the world. Those who know the original, I mean.”
She added.
“Like erasing the original from the world.”
