After listening to Hongryeon’s words, I was certain.

The flower the boy was holding in his hand was actually a box cutter. It wasn’t that there was a trick to change it, but the object itself had changed. I could only say that it was truly a mysterious power.

“Why did the sword become a flower?”

Yuki, who was making a fuss behind him, also looked surprised. But there was no way to explain to Yuki what had just happened. I also didn’t know how the power of Hongryeon worked. I just knew that a miracle would occur by consuming Sarah and I’s karma.

“That’s ridiculous.”

“Of course. That’s ridiculous.”

“Do you know what the assistant did?”

“You think it’s just magic.”

“Ah… Magic? Trick?”

“It was Bodhisattva’s trick.”

“Oh.”

Yuki was able to convince himself that it was magic.

I was glad she was an innocent girl.

Now the weapon is gone from the boy’s hand.

I was able to approach the boy with ease.

“Ugh! Do not come! Don’t come!”

The boy pressed the flower to his neck, but it didn’t hurt him. He was such an immature kid that he threatened with his own life. Judging by the fact that he only tried to slightly cut his throat earlier, it seemed like he didn’t really have any intention of stabbing himself.

“Fuck!”

The boy turned his back and ran away.

I also ran and chased after the boy.

A boy tried to escape by climbing over the school fence. Of course, he had no choice but to be caught by me before he could hang on to the fence. At first glance, he seemed to be a middle school student, but it was impossible for him to beat me by running.

“Ugh.”

“How old are you?”

“W, I’m sixteen.”

“Then it wouldn’t be a good idea.”

At 16 years old, I would be in my third year of middle school.

Since he cannot be called a juvenile, he will be punished according to the juvenile law.

The staff heard Yuki’s screams and came running to us.

The staff saw the boy and immediately reported it to the police.

I asked the boy some questions before the police came.

“You stole the props from the filming set, right?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you steal it?”

“You stole it as a souvenir for coming here?”

“Ha… .”

The culprit who stole the movie props was, of course, a boy. Judging from the fact that he stole props without being caught by the staff, he was a pretty shrewd guy.

“Then let’s ask one more question. Was it you who cried like an animal on set?”

“No. That’s not me.”

“If not you, then who?”

“Anyway, I’m not. If you make strange noises, you’ll get caught, so why do you do that?”

Before Sarah and I arrived, a strange phenomenon occurred on the filming set where you could hear the howling of an animal. But they said it wasn’t the boy who did it.

‘That’s true.’

Certainly, if the boy who had been hiding had made strange crying noises, the police would have caught him before we even arrived. All other strange phenomena were the work of boys, but the animal’s cries were still a mystery.

After some time, the boy was caught by the police.

Dawn came and Hongryeon’s time of possession came to an end.

“Fairy. Before you go, can you tell me more about the prophecy? I’m curious whether the case has been resolved.”

“I’ll tell you a prophecy. I see Jinwoo and Sarah going to school tomorrow morning.”

“That’s natural. Because tomorrow is a weekday.”

“That’s all I can see right now thanks to my foresight. I don’t see anything else. I also can’t specifically predict what will happen in two days.”

“Are you saying the scope of the prophecy is about one day?”

“That’s right.”

There was nothing dangerous in Hongryeon’s prophecy either.

Even if Hongryeon was a divine spirit, it seemed like she couldn’t see it until the distant future. Hongryeon’s specific prophecy was limited to telling of events that would occur within 24 hours from now.

“Jinwoo. I’ll go.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Don’t forget your promise to offer something delicious as an offering next time you come. I would like omakase, please.”

“You mean offering omakase.”

Hongryeon said goodbye and returned to heaven.

After the reception, Sarah’s spirit returned to her body. While taking pictures with me, he suddenly lost contact and has only just returned.

“Sera.”

“Yes.”

“Shall we take a picture again? I couldn’t take a picture with you earlier.”

“Of course I have to take a picture.”

As expected, Sarah wanted to take a commemorative photo again. Now that the boy who caused the ghost disturbance was caught, he could now roam around the filming set with peace of mind.

“Do you want to take a picture now?”

“Take a picture again later. All the cameras have been removed so it doesn’t feel like a filming set. I’m taking a two-shot of a childhood friend who looks sweeter than when I took a picture with a fairy.”

“Two shots of childhood friends who look friendly. Okay.”

Sarah and I took a taxi back to Hyehwadang.

I visited the filming set for a few days after that, but nothing strange happened.

The actors and staff were grateful to us because they thought the case had been solved. It wasn’t really an exorcism, but they caught Yuki’s sasaeng fan who was causing a commotion.

* * *

On the set of , there was a young man who was killing time by fiddling with his cell phone.

He was a staff member named Lee Hyung-sik.

Although he was part of the special effects team, there was no one specifically asking him to do the work, and Hyungsik did not do the work himself.

This was because Hyungsik was the youngest son of the CEO of a film production company.

It was literally a parachute.

‘I need to see Yuki quickly and get off work.’

Hyungsik planned to kill some time today and then get off work. The only reason he went to work on set was to admire the body and face of the idol Yuki. Although I majored in computer graphics in college, I had no intention of working seriously with the skills I had learned.

‘Why does my father keep asking me to work? ‘I want to go to a salon and have sex with a woman.’

His father, the CEO of a film production company, put Hyeong-sik, who was idle after graduating from college, to work. However, Hyeongsik had much more fun hanging out with women than building his career. If you were born as the son of a film company CEO, you could meet as many women as you wanted.

Hyungsik has also met models and singers with good bodies.

But I have never met a popular idol yet. So I became even more obsessed with Yuki.

‘Anyway, it’s nice to meet Yuki.’

Hyungsik is 29 years old this year.

Although it was clearly a crime to touch 17-year-old Yuki, it was probably a good thing for Hyungsik. Hyeongsik was a young man who lived based on the movements of his lower body, not his brain.

Yuki came to Seongwoon High School again today.

Hyungsik made various excuses and flirted with Yuki whenever he got the chance.

Then night came and all filming ended.

The staff began to clean up after themselves.

Everyone was working, but Hyungsik proudly went to the school parking lot to leave work.

That was when I took the car keys out of my pocket.

Hyeongsik looked around and realized that there were other people in the parking lot besides him.

“Hmm?”

A man was standing in front of a foreign car.

The only foreign car in the parking lot was driven by Hyungsik.

━━Click

Hyungsik used the smart key to remotely start the car. At that moment, the car’s headlights turned on and brightly illuminated the man standing in front of him.

The man had sticky blood on his face and clothes. Hyungsik was slightly startled the moment he saw the man, but quickly calmed down. On the set of a zombie movie, it was common to see actors covered in fake blood.

Besides, Hyungsik had seen that man before.

“I think I saw your face earlier… .”

“… … .”

“Ah! Are you learning a small role?”

Hyungsik immediately realized who the man was. He was one of the minor actors who came to the filming set today to play a zombie.

“That’s my car, so don’t mess around and get out of the way. Are you going to take responsibility if I get fake blood on it? I’m already so annoyed.”

Hyungsik frowned and swore at the man. Even when the car owner showed up, the man had no intention of leaving the foreign car.

“I told you to go!”

That was when Hyungsik shouted in frustration.

A man who was standing suddenly walked towards Hyeongsik. It wasn’t like he was walking smoothly, it was a stumbling movement.

“Krrr.”

The man was walking, cracking his joints loudly, like a zombie. Although it was a rough work environment on set, I couldn’t help but be amazed when I saw the man’s movements.

‘Are you acting better than when you filmed earlier? ‘You really look like a zombie.’

I felt like a zombie. It was unusual for it to be drooling from its mouth and making animal-like noises.

“Look! If you want to show off your acting skills, don’t give a shit to me and go to Director Hong! Even if I tried to act here, no one would… .”

While speaking, Hyungsik slowly noticed something strange. The man who moved like a zombie didn’t look like he was acting, he really looked like he was crazy.

The moment Hyungsik made eye contact with the man, goosebumps appeared all over his body.

“Heo Eok.”

The man’s eyes were all white.

That man was walking with his eyes rolled back.

Hyungsik took a step back and then turned around and tried to run away.

At that very moment, the man ran like crazy towards Hyeongsik, whose back was turned.

“Krrr.”

The man threw his whole body and attacked Hyeongsik.

Then, he bit the nape of Hyeongsik’s neck with his yellow teeth.

━━Kwadeuk

Blood splattered in the school parking lot.

Now it was real blood, not fake blood made from starch syrup.

“Ahhhh.”

In the darkness, the breath was cut off as if the neck had been bitten.

The man on top chewed Hyeongsik as if he were eating a piece of meat.

After killing Hyeongsik, the man collapsed like a doll whose strings had been cut.

A while later, Hyangsik’s body and the collapsed man were discovered by staff working on set.

The man killing Hyesik was captured on CCTV installed in the school parking lot.

This was definitely a murder case.

Police were immediately dispatched to Nebula High School, but they were unable to arrest the man.

This was because the man who killed Hyeongsik was already a corpse.
