Bamboo Forest Manager - Chapter 78



78 – 78. Ghost

“Hmm.”

Yoo Ah-rin and Choi Yi-seo grabbed me as I was trying to leave the filming set. I would have been able to leave naturally, but the situation suddenly started to change strangely.

“Hey, let’s check her laptop, sunbae! Then there won’t be anything related to videos other than porn, right?!”

For some reason, Seo Ye-rin flinched at Yoo Ah-rin’s word ‘porn’, but let’s leave that aside.

Yoo Ah-rin, who was in high spirits, banged on the table excitedly and pressured me even more.

“Why are you trying to leave while doing that!”

“You don’t have much filming anyway, so why are you doing this to me.”

“Shut up! What’s the difference between you and this kid who didn’t memorize the script?”

I wonder why Yoo Ah-rin is doing this to me when I won’t be filming much anyway.

Doesn’t she like to watch other people the most? She’s so creepy.

Joo-hee sunbae, who had been listening to the story silently, slowly removed her hand from her thigh.

“It’s okay.”

“……Yes?”

Yoo Ah-rin’s body, which had been shouting violently, stopped and looked at Joo-hee sunbae quietly. As if to confirm if she had heard it correctly.

“Anyway, the editing will start after the filming is all done, so it’s not a big problem. I don’t know if we’ll do additional filming while editing, but it’s too much work to do the editing while filming.”

“Ah…….”

Somehow, Joo-hee sunbae’s expectations were low, which turned out to be good.

Yoo Ah-rin sat down with a sigh, thinking that her politicking had not worked.

“Crow.”

“But install some editing programs. If you install and learn them when it starts, then…….”

Joo-hee sunbae warned, pointing at Ahn Hyun-ho with her thumb.

“You’ll have to learn while getting hit like this kid.”

“……I’ll study hard from today.”

Anyway, Yoo Ah-rin’s riot was suppressed. It can be said that it was thanks to the wise leader’s insight.

“Hey, aren’t you going to help?”

Yoo Ah-rin asked Choi Yi-seo for support, who had agreed with her earlier. I wanted to tell her that it was ugly, but Choi Yi-seo said while gulping down beer.

“But there’s no reason not to join, right?”

Even though she had been drinking, Choi Yi-seo’s eyes still sparkled as they pierced me.

“If you listen to the story, it sounds like you have nothing to do right now.”

I was speechless.

The lifeline that had saved me, saying that I didn’t need to have editing programs installed because I was filming, was now tied around my ankle.

“In the first place, Ah-rin and I got involved with Woo-jin, so it doesn’t seem right for you to just leave.”

“Do you…… really feel better that way?”

I said as I looked at Choi Yi-seo, but she didn’t even answer, thinking that I had abandoned her.

“Hmm, it’s true that it’s a bit strange to just leave the two people who came to help.”

Joo-hee sunbae said with a smile after thinking for a while.

“Then let’s do it by majority vote.”

“No!”

The violence of democracy overwhelms me!

Wednesday.

In other words, the next day in the evening.

I was sitting on a bench with a blanket over me, looking at my cell phone while a cold wind was blowing.

Of course, I was looking at the bamboo forest like usual.

The bulletin board was being used actively today.

– Anonymous11: Flush the toilet after using the bathroom, you bastards. If my son or daughter did this, I would really break their heads.

– Anonymous 301: Why aren’t you broadcasting PoPo these days?

↳ Anonymous302: Yeah, there’s no notice or anything.

↳ Anonymous303: You don’t even go to school.

– Anonymous90: I want to have s*x!

↳ Anonymous11: Play with your master.

– Anonymous243: I’ll review a few new works this quarter. First of all…….

If you look at it this way, it wasn’t much different from usual, but those were the ones who posted at their own pace.

The reason why the bamboo forest was active was because there was a different bait going around.

– Anonymous237: ‘Set Out’ is definitely better. This one was neatly done until the end.

– Anonymous84: Did you not know that ‘Illusionary Battle’ was a goth from episodes 1 to 10? I really broke all my promises to watch the live broadcast of Illusionary Battle every day.

↳ Anonymous93: Lol, really

Two dramas that recently ended.

The topic was which one was better between the dramas ‘Shout Out to the World’ and ‘Illusionary Battle’.

I don’t know where it started, but the bamboo forest had been burning with this bait for 30 minutes.

– Anonymous75: But Illusionary Battle was really bad in the latter half. It was loose.

↳ Anonymous159: It was so much fun until the middle part, so it’s rather that the latter half was disappointing, but it wasn’t lacking.

↳ Anonymous39: Honestly, this isn’t bad, but compared to the high point of Dream of the Nine Clouds, it’s just okay.

– Anonymous98: Drama noobs are really shallow. Setwoe is much better. The story itself was complete from beginning to end.

↳ Anonymous189: Setwoe is much better because of Miu. Miu’s aegyo alone is enough to beat The Tale of a Phantasmal Dream.

↳ Anonymous316: What are you talking about when we have our Hwan-ae princess?

↳ Anonymous55: I really thought Jung So-ah was born in that era. Her role as the Hwan-ae princess was crazy.

Like this.

The two dramas were fiercely comparing each other.

As someone who hadn’t seen either, I was just roughly managing the posts that crossed the line.

Often, the girl leads of each drama.

I wondered while looking at the memes of Miu and Jung So-ah.

‘Miu is cute, and Jung So-ah is elegant.’

Considering that Setwoe is a modern drama and The Tale of a Phantasmal Dream is a historical drama, I thought that the casting was perfect.

Personally, both of them were so beautiful that it was hard to choose one.

Bam!

At that moment, an arm wrapped around my neck.

As I was put in a headlock, a voice whispered in my ear.

“What are you doing?”

Choi Yi-seo, who had gone to film earlier, had returned. It seemed like it was her break time.

“……I’m just looking at the bamboo forest at school.”

As I carefully lowered my phone and answered, Choi Yi-seo’s grip tightened.

“No, I saw you talking about which actress is prettier in the bamboo forest right now.”

“Who said what?”

“You’re squeezing my hand.”

I’m going to pass out if you’re not careful.

Choi Yi-seo slowly released her grip and patted my shoulder while laughing.

“I was just kidding. If you have nothing to do, Senior Joo-hee asked me to go to the teaching assistant and ask for the lecture room key.”

It’s because they’re filming in the lecture room. I put my phone in my pocket and got up quietly, stretching.

“Where’s the lecture room key?”

“She said that you’d know where it is.”

“The head of the department is very organized.”

“He, head?”

There is such a thing.

As I was about to take a step to go quickly, I had a thought that something was wrong as I watched Choi Yi-seo seeing me off.

“Hey, I have nothing to do here anyway.”

“…….”

Choi Yi-seo closed her mouth at my words. She seemed a little sorry because she realized that I had nothing to do more than she thought.

“Yes, you take good care of the actors. You buy them drinks and bread…….”

“Isn’t that called a bread shuttle?”

“…….”

Choi Yi-seo turned her head away, unable to deny it. I sighed and stretched my sore neck.

“Well, it’s my job, so it’s natural to suffer, but it’s still a bit boring.”

At first, I watched them act together, but later I just waited on the bench.

I guess you could say it’s like being in charge of the kids’ luggage.

“I’ll play with you later, so go.”

“What are you going to do to play with me?”

You’re kidding me.

Choi Yi-seo didn’t respond, as if she was embarrassed after saying it.

“I’ll be back, so think about what you’re going to play.”

I smiled and said that so that I wouldn’t feel sorry for her, and then headed to the teaching assistant’s office.

It seemed like the teaching assistant was busier than I thought, since she hadn’t left yet.

“Huh.”

The teaching assistant’s office was locked.

The key was hanging on the doorknob.

The lecture room number wasn’t written on it, so I had to check where it was.

I think it’s probably one of the English 1, 2, or 3 lecture rooms.

“It’s creepy.”

I didn’t know because I rarely stayed at school at night, but the hallway that I usually walked down without thinking looked quite sinister.

It’s like a long-haired ghost might come running from over there.

‘If a ghost appears, I’ll first try to restrain it with a hook, pretend to strike, and then do a wasabi roll….’

I thought about how to deal with ghosts and checked the lecture rooms one by one.

1 and 2 were both duds.

In the end, all that’s left is 3.

It was the farthest lecture room, so I walked down the hallway slowly.

‘No. I think it would be better to fight a little more cautiously than with a hook. First, I’ll pretend to run away, and if they chase me, I’ll do a backspin elbow….’

The key fit perfectly into the doorknob of English 3 lecture room.

I tried to open the door, but.

Clank, clank.

“Huh?”

Isn’t the door locked the other way?

That means it was originally open.

“***! **!”

“What the…….”A strange sound suddenly came from the crack in the door. I wondered if I had heard it correctly, but when I put my ear to the door, the bizarre sound continued to echo.

“What is that?”

Oh, should I run away?

Should I bring Yu-arin or senior Joo-hee? Or maybe even Hyun-ho?

I thought I should bring someone who was good at fighting, but then…

“But wouldn’t it be great if I actually caught a ghost?”

I stealthily took out my phone and started recording a video. I’m going to debut as a ghost hunter YouTuber with this.

I’m going to get ten million views right away.

Thinking confidently that I could even be interviewed abroad since I’m in the English department, I turned the key again, and the lock opened.

Creak!

I opened the door and went inside.

A dark classroom.

The light from my cell phone brightly illuminated the interior.

On the auditorium side.

“Haah! A little harder!”

Two people, their pants off, were rubbing their bodies together.

“Ah…”

Ironically, both of them were people I knew. They were a third-year boy student and a second-year girl student, both English majors.

Click.

I turned on the light without realizing it.

“Whoa!”

“What the hell!”

The classroom was brightly lit.

The two looked at me and started to get dressed in a panic, and I opened my mouth in shock and exclaimed.

“Holy sh*t.”

“Y-you bastard! Put your phone away!”

“Turn off the lights!”

“Oh, right.”

I immediately turned off the lights and lowered my phone. I had somehow managed to get a close-up shot, but I honestly thought it would make my phone dirty, so I deleted it on the spot.

“No, no matter how horny you are, what are you doing here?”

Click.

There was no answer, so I turned on the lights again.

“I got it! I’m sorry, so turn off the lights!”

Click.

Perhaps the teaching assistant had left the door open and only locked the key because he was annoyed.

It seemed that this couple had happened to see that the classroom was open and wanted to have a more stimulating time than usual.

“D-don’t pretend you didn’t see it! Got it?”

“Why don’t you go somewhere else to talk!”

Click.

“I got it, so don’t go snooping around like a pervert.”

“Don’t turn on the lights!”

“Why do you keep turning on the lights every time I talk?!”

Both of their faces turned bright red, and they avoided my gaze. They were probably going to tear their blankets apart when they got home.

“Go away, I think I need to air this place out.”

At my words, the couple ran away like a shot.

I headed towards the window with the classroom lights on. I thought I should open the window and air it out as soon as possible because of the lingering smell inside.

As I opened the window, the wind rushed in and the curtains fluttered.

And then.

Click.

The classroom lights went out.

“Hmm?”

My body involuntarily cringed. I looked towards the entrance, wondering what was going on.

A long-haired woman standing in front of the door.

It was dark and I couldn’t see her well, but the woman’s figure gave me goosebumps, and I took a step back without realizing it.

‘A ghost?!’

No, why didn’t she come out when the two of them were having s*x, but why is she doing this to me?

Thud.

She started to approach me, one step at a time.

“Don’t come.”

Thud.

“I said don’t come!”

Thud!

“Really! I warned you! If you come, something bad will happen!”

Thud!

“If you’re a virgin ghost, you should go and tease the couple who were having s*x earlier, why are you doing this to me?!”

Thud!

“Y-you shouldn’t cross the boundary between the living and the dead!”

Thud!

“No, in the novel, if you say this, you’ll be appeased, why doesn’t it work here?!”

Thud!

“I-if I die, I’ll be a ghost too! Can you handle the difference in weight?! How are you going to deal with the aftermath…!”

“Pfft!”

The ghost burst out laughing.

No, I could tell who it was the moment I heard her voice.

“…Come here.”

The moment I realized who it was, she snapped her fingers and called me over.

“No.”

Seo Ye-rin tried to run away while laughing, but I was faster. I quickly ran over and grabbed Seo Ye-rin.

“Oh! Seo Ye-rin!”

I couldn’t do anything after I caught her, so I just yelled at her, but she just giggled.

“Ouch! You shouldn’t cross the boundary between the living and the dead!”

“You’re really behind.””That was amazing. It was refreshing to be threatened that you’d become a ghost and haunt me if I died.”

“Can you handle me right now?”

“hehehehe! Why aren’t you here? I came to find you because it’s my break time.”

“Ha, you can’t even imagine what I’ve been through.”

At my words, Seo Ye-rin asks, jumping up.

“Oh, right! What was that about the couple earlier?”

“……”

I explained briefly what had happened here without mentioning any names.

Actually, the reason I didn’t mention any names was because I didn’t know their names, but…

“You were doing it here, just now?!”

Flustered, Seo Ye-rin walks over to the platform where the man and woman had been sucking and licking each other earlier.

“Yes, they were shaking their hips really hard, and I just walked in…!”

I was getting excited and explaining it all while demonstrating the positions, when suddenly Seo Ye-rin looked at me slyly.

“Why are you tempting me?”

“……Me?”

“Oh, you just explained it all in such detail. Don’t you want to do it with me here?”

“No, I don’t.”

“Kim Woo-jin, you’re quite the player, aren’t you?”

“No, I’m not. I just told you to watch less porn, so your thought process is all messed up.”

Thud.

Seo Ye-rin approaches me without saying anything.

She’s definitely walking softly, but for some reason her footsteps sound loud.

“Don’t come any closer.”

Thud.

“I said, don’t come any closer!”

Thud.

“Seriously! I’m warning you! If you come any closer, something bad will happen!”
