I Became the Hidden Mastermind - Chapter 44



044 – Corridor Strategy # 4

044 – Corridor Strategy # 4

This “Princess Magic Wand” Was Yang Joo-hee’s item.

And these toys usually have magic spells or something like that.

“Yang Joo-hee! It’s an order! Order! “Recite the spell!”

Our fate lies in Yang Joo-hee’s magic wand.

I had no choice but to press Yang Joo-hee in many ways.

Shock-.

Yang Joo-hee seemed very nervous, unlike someone who usually showed boldness and bravery.

What on earth is going to happen?

When I was thinking that, Yang Joo-hee passed the lighter to me.

“Ah sh*t! I don’t know either! You… If you guys laugh or make fun of me, I’ll kill you! Really!”

Truly bone-.

Yang Joo-hee held the magic wand with both hands in an awkward manner.

And he shouted while swinging the baton from side to side.

“… Uhmmm, ummm, bo… Fairy of jewels! To the light! Roo… Lushine Ruby Power!”

It was a very strange order.

Iljin Yang Joo-hee, who dominated 「1-D」, Is showing cute cuteness like a child at a school performance.

In a way, her appearance was as shocking as the ghost of her severed head or the ghost of an angry shaman.

“Wow!”

I was briefly impressed.

Scratch Scratch-.

Jeong Seok-eun must have been unable to bear the awkward and embarrassing scene, so he turned his head and scratched his head with his hand.

What happens now?

Twinkling-.

Yang Joo-hee’s ruby-colored magic wand began to emit light.

It was a colorful rainbow.

In this pitch-black darkness, the light source seemed like some sort of barrier or shield.

“Are you done? Is it done? “I did it!”

Yang Joo-hee is very happy.

Jeongseok soon asked.

“Can you move with that light on?”

“I don’t know! “Why not give it a try?”

Swipe-.

Yang Joo-hee moved her feet.

But at that moment, isn’t the light flickering violently?

“No. I feel like the lights will go out when I move. This is an old toy. I bought it a long time ago. I was around seven years old. “It’s almost broken!”

What a pity!

Because I didn’t know how long the shield would last, I took a deep breath and prepared for my next move without any time to waste.

Now I run… All you have to do is remove the amulet attached to the statue!

I finished the simulation in my head!

“Guys, I’m coming! Standard! I’ll give you the talisman! Like I said, as soon as you wake up, write down everything you remember in a notebook! Got it!”

“Okay. “I definitely do that.”

“Go! Me! Really! Goes! I’m going! Don’t catch it! Ahhh! Goes! Really going! Let’s go!”

How great it would be if there were a magic spell that would inspire courage in people.

After shouting a few times as if to brainwash myself, I was finally able to take my feet off.

Pabababat-! Splash-splash-!

I jumped wildly on water that was submerged up to my ankles.

I was able to remove the amulet from the statue accurately and concisely by running at an extremely fast speed, even in my opinion.

“That’s enough!”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

The problem was that the head ghost was stimulated by my movements. Probably because I stepped on a hair that was submerged in water!

The head ghost broke like glass, its cracked eyes flashed brightly, the corners of its mouth raised to the limit, and it lunged at me.

“Ugh! “f*ck!”

Should I call it a flashlight?

The scene of Jeong So-jin dying from the ghost in her head flashed before my eyes.

He died in a very horrible, disgusting and painful death, with his limbs entangled and hair getting into the pores of his body, including his eyes, nose and mouth!

I didn’t want that to happen!

“Wooooo!”

I ran toward Yang Joo-hee, screaming in a way that even I thought was unsightly.

I felt like her hair was wrapped around my arms and legs, but I somehow bit my teeth and moved forward! It was progress again!

“Hey! This… “Take this!”

I stretched my hand forward and held out the amulet.

Then Jeongseok, who was waiting inside the shield, came towards me and handed me the amulet. At that moment, I felt a little strength leaving my body.

Should I say I was a little relieved?

“Take this, take this, take this, take this.”

Of course, I wasn’t able to completely shake off this ghost in my head.

I gritted my teeth and desperately advanced forward, and was finally able to step through the rainbow-colored cluster of lights created by Yang Joo-hee’s magic wand.

“Okay… That’s it!”

What happened next was quite encouraging and surprising.

The hair that had been wrapped around me shuddered and retreated from the light, like cockroaches that had been spotted by a person!

The head ghost could no longer approach me, so it clicked its teeth in its mouth and then floated up into the air.

And disappeared into the high darkness.

“… Did you go? Did you go to the first floor?”

I sat down, feeling all strength drain from my body.

Even my panties got wet because of the water on the floor, but it wasn’t my part-time job.

Actually, I might be a little tired.

It might be better to get it wet with this water.

“Ha Young-won. It was really hard. I saw it again. “I didn’t know you were such a courageous person.”

Jeongseok praised my hard work.

I was able to sum up all the hard work I had just done with just a few words, but I didn’t feel bad.

Sch-.

Jeongseok held out the amulet to me and said.

“Eternal. “Can I go without you escaping?”

“… ….”

I thought about it for just a moment.

Three people had one ticket to escape from this hellish nightmare.

Inevitably, the two must remain.

“I…” I do not need. “I need to find more of her sister.”

Yang Joo-hee seemed to think for a while before giving up ownership of the escape ticket.

I had no choice but to worry about many things, but honestly, it was because I didn’t want to stay in this place any longer.

I was scared of where the head ghost went….

Should I just leave?

While thinking about that, I shook my head.

“Standard. You go out “Honestly, out of all of us, you have the best memory.”

“Then…” Should I keep it first and use it later? “You can play the role of bait for a ghost like you did just now and then run away as if making an emergency escape.”

Jeongseok’s opinion seemed quite plausible.

But we did not yet know the mechanism of ‘escape’.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to just escape at least once.

“No. First of all, go out when you have free time. Get out now! Right now! “Before I change my mind!”

I closed my eyes tightly.

I had decided to send Jeongseok.

“Go! Get out of here! “Don’t come back again!”

“Okay. Things that happened now. I will never forget! Never!”

Jeongseok held the amulet in her hand tighter.

I lit his amulet and something amazing happened.

Hwareuk-!

At the same time as the amulet caught fire, Jeongseok’s body also caught fire.

Jeongseok’s body seemed to be burning like the amulet he was holding in his hand, and then quickly disappeared.

The only ones left are me and Yang Joo-hee.

With only the two of them left in the place where the three had been, everything fell into a chaotic silence.

“Are you done? Hey Joohee. What do you think? “This guy, Jeongseok, escaped, right?”

“I don’t know.”

Sch-.

The light went out on Yang Joo-hee’s toy magic wand.

The holding time of the magic wand can be considered to be approximately 2 minutes.

“Hey. “I think the magic wand is broken.”

“So what do we do now?”

I looked around and asked Yang Joo-hee.

Yang Joo-hee was also looking around.

“Now that the head ghost is gone, let’s take a closer look around. “I might have something useful.”

Okay.

It was a good idea.

Yang Joo-hee always searched around like this.

“Yang Joo-hee, look at this! Reduce!”

We were able to get our hands on a rope around the statue.

It was a line that seemed to be about 2 meters long.

“If I have this, I can escape from this basement!”

I chose to go back the way we came with Yang Joo-hee and go back up to the broadcasting room.

It was to obtain the second amulet.

「Escape Talisman – Burning this talisman allows you to escape. One person per amulet. There is one clearly attached to the front of the statue. There is one new statue on each floor.”

According to the records, there was one new statue on each floor.

Since the statue was just on the first basement floor, there must be a statue on the first floor above ground as well.

There will definitely be an escape talisman attached to the statue on the first floor. They said that either me or Yang Joo-hee could escape.

“Hey. Youngwon Ha. Lift me up “I’ll go up with a rope and pull you up.”

In no time, we arrived at the hole in the broadcast room.

2 Meters.

I thought I had to go backwards compared to when I jumped down, so I was in a fairly high position.

“Hey. Lie down here.”

Yang Joo-hee pointed to the floor and instructed me.

I fell down feeling like “OTL” And Yang Joo-hee took off her shoes and wet socks and stepped on my back.

“Ah, Mr. It can’t be reached! Hey! Lying down won’t do! “Lift me up!”

“Lift it up?”

A situation where you have to do anything to escape.

I grabbed Yang Joo-hee as if I was hugging her and lifted her up with all my strength.

“Hey! What are you doing! “Try to use your strength!”

“Neuuup!”

Is it because I hugged a girl in this situation?

The feeling was strange. It smelled good and was soft.

A little… No, it’s quite embarrassing, isn’t it?

Of course, the dependable Yang Joo-hee moved around as if nothing was wrong when I hugged her.

“Hang in there! “I’m going to climb on your shoulders!”

Yang Joo-hee stepped on my shoulder. I held onto Yang Joo-hee’s legs as she stumbled.

Chuck!

Yang Joo-hee used her shoulder as a stepping stone and grabbed the hole in her broadcasting room with her excellent motor skills.

“It’s done!”

“Are you done? It’s okay?”

I inadvertently raised my head.

Then Yang Joo-hee, who was wearing her school uniform skirt, stepped on my face with the sole of her foot.

“Ugh!”

“… Hey! Where are you looking! If you look up, you’ll die!”

“Hey! “I didn’t see anything!”

“Hmph!”

Yang Joo-hee struggled up to the first floor.

Yang Joo-hee, who disappeared over the hole, said.

“Hey! “Then I’ll lower the rope for you now!”

“Oh!”

I waited for the rope.

…

……

……

“Hey! “They said they would lower the rope for me!”

But even after five minutes, the rope had no intention of coming down.

What happened?

“Hey! Yang Joo-hee! Is it Joohee? Joohee, where are you? What are you doing? “Raise me quickly!”

For some reason, I felt nervous to the point where my spine was numb, and I desperately wanted to escape from this underground room as soon as possible.

However, no response was heard from Yang Joo-hee, who had gone up.

Just when I felt like I was going crazy in many ways, a rope came down from above.

“Oh!”

I grabbed the rope and climbed up with all my might.

Because it was my first time climbing up a rope, I felt like my arms were chafing and my thighs were hurting, but whatever!

If only I could survive!

But… The moment it all went up, I couldn’t help but freak out.

Yang Joo-hee, who I thought was waiting for me, couldn’t see where she had gone, and her white face, which I had never expected, was reflected in the lighter.

“You… “You are Yoo Da-hee!”

“Eternal.”

“You, you, you f*cking b*tch! Yang Joo-hee! “Where did Yang Joo-hee go?”

I looked around in horror.

A lot of red puddles around Yoo Da-hee.

P.

It was a pool of blood!

And the hair that had been dyed and bleached repeatedly, with a damaged texture, was strewn on the floor.

“Wow. Uweeek-!”

I couldn’t hold back the vomiting and vomited everything I could into the underground hole.

As I was rolling around on the floor, I saw a “Louis Vuitton school bag” And a blood-soaked “Princess Magic Wand” Lying in front of me.

This means only one thing.

“He died….”

Yang Joo-hee died.

Without even a moment to scream.

And this trace… It was very similar to the traces where Kim Geon-ho was found dead in front of the lock of the multi-purpose room.

Trace of the third ghost.

Yoo Da-hee.

Yang Joo-hee disappeared.

“This…” “You b*tch!”

I was so frustrated, angry, and scared that foam came out at the mouth.

But Yoo Da-hee frowned and slapped me on the cheek.

“Evil!”

“Eternal. Calm down. This. “I didn’t do it.”

“You didn’t do it?”

“Yes.”

If Yoo Da-hee didn’t do it, who did it?

I… Even though I had doubts in many ways, I wanted to believe in Yoo Da-hee.

The human mind is such that in extreme situations, it becomes dependent on something, wants to depend on it, and wants to believe in it.

But… Like Yoo Da-hee said, I had to calm down.

“Yoo Da-hee. What the hell are you? “What are you?”

“Shhh… !”

Yoo Da-hee’s hand covered my mouth.

It was a soft and warm hand.

“If you talk too loudly, she will come back to the broadcasting room. You guys. You found the amulet in the basement, right? If you get the amulet from the underground, the head ghost will start moving. The woman noticed that too. “You have to be careful.”

That woman?
