Bamboo Forest Manager - Chapter 56



56 – 56. Captured Mouse

It was supposed to be a witty retort, but it failed. I calmed down Yoo Arin, who was threatening to report to the police, and made her sit back down.

Yoo Arin, who had not calmed down, breathed roughly through her nose and started drinking the rest of the Chocomong.

I also sipped my drink with a straw and subtly turned the laptop towards Yoo Arin so she could see.

“Anonymous90. We need to find out how she found Anonymous69.”

Yoo Arin responded with a puzzled expression.

“Huh? Did she really guess it right? Was it really our department, s*xology?”

“Yeah.”

“Wow, who is it?”

Yoo Arin raised her legs on the desk, wetting the chair, and sipped the Chocomong with her eyes narrowed, then looked at me frowning.

“Wait. So, do you know who s*xology is?”

“I know.”

“Huh? How? Am I friends with her too?”

We’re really close.

We’ve been friends since high school.

“You don’t have to know. Don’t try to find out who the other person is on the anonymous community.”

“I’m curious, so I want to.”

“There’s no need to be curious. Finding Anonymous90 is more important for now.”

“What the hell.”

Yoo Arin pouted her lips as if sulking. Since we’ve probably seen things like this more than once or twice, I start checking the posts left by Anonymous90.

“Is this guy crazy?”

Yu Arin, who was looking at the records, frowned in annoyance. It definitely felt much more extreme than Seo Yerin, who was the s*x lord.

Should I call it a kind of fanaticism?

“It seems a bit too much.”

“Too extreme. Hey, at this point, it’s a cult. They even went as far as putting it in their mouth, let alone licking it.”

“….”

“If it were me, I would ignore it even if it was this extreme. The s*x lord is being practically stalked.”

Is Seo Yerin also being stalked here? He felt slightly sorry for her.

Come to think of it, ignoring the child who served him on the bulletin board, the only one who did, could be a method he had learned in his own way while living his life.

Since Seo Yerin mostly didn’t respond to men contacting her or trying to deceive her.

“Let’s keep reading.”

Yu Arin leaned slightly towards me.

“I don’t see it.”

As the scent of fruits spread, he pushed his forehead with his left hand and scrolled the mouse wheel down.

– Anonymous90: When will the s*x lord come? Why can’t I see you?

↳ Anonymous90 (author): It’s fun.

↳ Anonymous90 (author): ? Why the fuss?

↳ Anonymous90: You’re back, JOAT!

↳ Anonymous90: The Dark Knight of modernity who even outshines the administrators! The JOAT of lust!

Anonymous90: Oh, the s*xologist is here. Another day of excitement!

Anonymous90: The s*xologist seems to be in a good condition today!

Anonymous90: Please show some consideration, Administrator.

“This guy just keeps posting and posting, there’s no end to it.”

“He’s really obsessed with the s*xologist.”

I don’t know what made him like this, but it was definitely getting tiresome.

What should we call these cyber stalkers?

But even so, I was trying to make sense of it in my own way.

“Is he a first-year student?”

Most of the posts in the bamboo forest are focused on Anonymous69. Apart from that, not many people write posts or leave comments.

Thinking back to when Seo Yerin was active in the first semester of her first year, it was probably around the same time that this person appeared.

But…

“Oh?”

Yoo Arin, with her face stuck to the laptop. I got annoyed and pushed her away, only able to see the back of her head.

“Hey, move a bit. I’m going to lick the screen!”

“Look at this! Look at this!”

There was a post that could give a clue about Anonymous90.

[Recent records of Anonymous90]

↳ Anonymous90: I can also handle dentistry. I can treat you physically.

“Dentistry?”

It was a comment that was posted not long ago.

– Anonymous21: Are there any physical education majors who want to play with high school students near the Pump Chicken alley?

↳ Anonymous11: I’m in the security major, I can go right away to ensure school safety.

↳ Anonymous90: I can also handle dentistry. I can treat you physically.

↳ Anonymous54: I’ll take the law books for the law major.

↳ Anonymous12: Shall I bring animals for the veterinary medicine major?

↳ Anonymous85: I’m in the film studies major, can I go and take some pictures? It’s for an assignment.

“Well, this is a very intense post.”

Among them, I saw a few familiar names, but I’ll overlook them for now.

It seems like these anonymous writings that have popped up in the bamboo forest are from some famous anonymous writers.

“A fossil.”

Although my hypothesis that it could be a first-year student was quickly dismissed, I decide to quickly go through the writings from before as fossils.

↳ Anonymous90: Selling genealogy.

– Anonymous90: Anyone up for drinks? It’s really boring here.

– Anonymous90: This assignment is really crap. Is the professor supposed to do it himself and then ask us to do it?

——————

I did read a few more posts after this, but there wasn’t anything particularly noticeable.

Nevertheless, seeing the continued records, it was clear that it was a fossil.

“The records have been consistently used since almost four years ago? Then it’s highly likely to be a fourth-year student now.”

I agreed with Yoo Arin’s words, but…

“Do fourth-year students still use the bamboo forest?”

And every time Anonymous69 posts something, Anonymous90 is almost always the first to comment, indicating that they are constantly checking.

“Hey, this will be difficult to find, won’t it?”

Besides, if it’s a fourth-year student, it’s a time when they hardly come to school because they focus on getting a job.

“It’s vague.”

The situation became slightly frustrating.

Even if we just give up and go to the Department of Physical Therapy, we don’t know what will happen.

If it’s a fourth-year student in the Department of Physical Therapy, there’s a high possibility they’re either preparing for national exams in the library or doing practical training outside.

“I think it’s best to give up on this. I don’t even know anyone at the Department of Physical Therapy.”

I answer Yoo Arin with a sigh, shrugging my shoulders.

“I know you don’t have any friends.”

“I really want to kill you. You’re pretending to have friends.”

“There’s Chanwoo.”

As soon as I mention Jung Chanwoo, Yoo Arin reacts and raises her arms in the air like a cat.

“You’re dead!”

Seeing her immediate reaction to the mention of Jung Chanwoo, it’s clear that she’s a martial arts girl.

While pushing Yoo Arin away, I’m also pondering.

“Hmm?”

Something flashed in my mind. Come to think of it, the person I’m dealing with is a fourth-year student and a resident of the bamboo forest.

“Festival!”

“aaah!”

The crazy b*tch bit my arm, but I ignored her and continued speaking.

“Don’t you think they’ll come to the festival? A fourth-year student who still resides in the bamboo forest wouldn’t skip the festival, right?”

Continuing to keep an eye on the bamboo forest.

On the other hand, it meant that much time remained.

I thought they would definitely participate in the festival at the university.

“Ugh.”

(What do you want?)

“Let go, you’re getting saliva on me.”

Personally, I thought it was quite likely. Plus, it could be a natural approach to the Department of Physical Therapy with the additional festival.

The problem is.

There are still two days left until the festival.

The guy solves one piece of Seoyeurin’s information each day, and the festival lasts for two days.

“I’ll endure it.”

It depended on Seoyeurin.

* * *

Two days passed, and it was the day of the festival.

Surprisingly, time passed swiftly.

– Anonymous90: The second Anonymous69 tends to avoid people.

Up until the second one, I thought that made sense.

Because Seoyeurin tends to avoid men, I thought she was stating that.

Until now, Anonymous69, who has been under stress, has received numerous inquiries.

Mostly s*xual ones.

But just on the day of the festival.

We realized that we were taking this incident too seriously than we thought.

– Anonymous90: The third Anonymous69 is a man.

“This f*cking bastard.”

Of course, there were bound to be insults. It was absurd that someone who knew nothing would blabber on like that.

Come to think of it, how could a physical therapy major and a fossil know Serin’s true identity?

Especially when they weren’t even at school.

While busy preparing for the bar’s kitchen, the anger erupted on my forehead when I thought about it.

And of course.

↳ Anonymous11: Are they mentally challenged? Then would that blabbering kid have many friends?

↳ Anonymous276: Just speaking thoughtlessly? Wanting attention?

↳ Anonymous85: Attention-seeking soldier, out.

↳ Anonymous178: Would a girl be saying she wants to have s*x every day? If there’s such a person, please introduce me.

Anonymous90 was being heavily criticized in the anonymous forest. Since they kept babbling on with vague stories, it was only natural that they would be insulted.

Seeing that Anonymous69 didn’t respond much, people became even more firm in their hearts.

– Anonymous69: Ahh! I want to disappear!

↳ Anonymous11: Shut up your follower already, will you?

Furthermore, seeing that Anonymous90 thought they didn’t know their own identity, Serin’s form today was at its best.

“Ugh, if this is also the way of anonymous communities, it’s a letdown.”

Couldn’t I just write a sarcastic post and run away? I felt childish for thinking of myself as being so serious about Serin’s involvement.

Quite amusingly.

And surprisingly.

The incident wasn’t over yet.

While diligently organizing kitchen utensils under the English and Literature tent, Minjuhi senior comes up to me.

“Uh, Woojin?”

With a very troubled expression.

“Yes?”

I wondered if something had happened while I was preparing for the kitchen. After taking a quick look at the surrounding students, Junghui senior asked quietly.

“Um, have you been writing on the anonymous forest?”

“Yes?”

“Well… They say the kids are uncomfortable being around you because you write weird stuff on the anonymous forest. If it’s a misunderstanding, I’ll clarify it.”

“…….”

In an instant, the characteristics of the erotic post Anonymous90 had written come to mind.

– Anonymous90: I’ll give you a hint every day. I’m a student in the “English and Literature” department.

Anonymous90: The second Anonymous69 tends to avoid people.

Anonymous90: The third Anonymous69 is a man.

In short,

A man who avoids those studying English literature.

I can be certain.

Anonymous90 probably doesn’t know anything and simply wrote the post. I don’t know how they found out about English literature, but let’s overlook that for now.

It was clear that they didn’t know anything about Anonymous69’s identity at the point where they got the gender wrong.

Like a cow walking backward, catching a mouse.

“Are you crazy?”

I’ve been caught.
