My Girlfriend Is a Shaman - Chapter 47



47 – Knowing your future spouse #4

It is time to sleep.

Da-jeong, the informant, did not return to her parents’ house even though it was late at night.

Da-jeong, who brought us a blanket, said she would sleep with us at her brother’s house.

“I’m going to sleep over at my brother’s house too. I told my parents I’m going to sleep over at my friend’s house tonight.”

“Really? Did you even lie to your parents?”

“This is my brother’s house. Even though Jinwoo and I knew each other on the Internet, I secretly brought people I met for the first time to my brother’s house. If anything happens, I will be responsible.”

“I see.”

Dajeong secretly brought us to her brother’s house without telling our parents. We were a little anxious because they brought us, strangers, to my brother’s house. There were also valuable items inside the house. Da-jeong seemed to be thinking of going to sleep over at his brother’s house to take responsibility.

Is it because we are the same age and speak respectfully to each other?

The atmosphere was awkward.

I suggested it to Da-jeong first.

“We’re the same age, so let’s just talk comfortably, right?”

“Uh… Is that so?”

“I’ll start talking first. Did you say Da-jeong? Where does she go to school?”

“Soyeon High School… Not Soyeon High School.”

“I must have been very surprised when I saw your brother injured. How is your brother in the hospital right now?”

“I had surgery, but I’m unconscious… I think I was so shocked when I stabbed myself with a knife. The doctor doesn’t know when I’ll wake up.”

Even though she let go of her words, Da-jeong’s complexion was still dark. From the moment he first met Da-jeong, she had a gloomy expression on her face. From the moment she left her words, Da-jeong started talking about her brother.

“What happens to my brother now…? He may never wake up. Or he may wake up and attempt suicide again. What if I use a different knife instead of a sword this time?”

“Aren’t you just thinking too bad things? I heard you’re the type of person who would never commit suicide.”

“But you did it. If you did it once, you can do it twice, right? This is all because of strange necromancy. If I had stopped you from seeing your future spouse, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.”

“Not all the people who committed suicide in this town practiced necromancy, right? Did the others also have knives in their mouths before committing suicide?”

“It’s not like that, but…”

“Look. People who didn’t practice necromancy also died. It’s not necessarily your fault.”

“…….”

I tried to comfort her, but Da-jeong’s expression did not calm down. Before she knew it, Da-jeong had begun to cry, and tears were flowing down her cheeks. Sarah, who was next to her, took a tissue and handed it to Da-jeong.

“Ugh….”

“Let’s sleep for now.”

“…Ugh.”

The conversation with Da-jeong has ended.

We lay down on a blanket in the living room. It was time to sleep, but I couldn’t let down my guard. This was the house where the accident occurred. We kept our suitcases close by so we could pull out our weapons at any time. I turned on the EMF meter and unfolded the folding tonfa and set it aside.

“Dajeong, let’s sleep together in the living room. Something dangerous could happen. If you want to go to the bathroom, wake up Sarah and go with her.”

“…Okay.”

Dajeong also lay down with us in the living room without saying anything. Perhaps because it was the house where the accident occurred, there was such a gloomy atmosphere in the house that it was difficult to sleep alone. The three of us lay down in the living room and closed our eyes together.

The two people except me soon fell asleep. I could hear Sarah and Da-jeong breathing quietly next to me. But as time passed, I couldn’t fall asleep easily. It was because we had a mentally unstable Da-jeong next to us. I couldn’t sleep because I didn’t know what Dajeong would do if I fell asleep too.

In the end, I woke up alone during the night.

When I checked the time, it was already 2 am. As soon as I woke up, I turned on the internet on my cell phone. I searched for articles about suicidal thoughts that have occurred in Soyeon-dong since ancient times.

‘There have been quite a few accidents here.’

After doing a search, I was able to find several articles about suicide accidents that occurred in Soyeon-dong. I scanned the articles and looked for commonalities among the victims. If these were accidents caused by ghosts, they would have something in common.

I thought about Gaek-gwi, the girl who tried to harm Joo-hyuk in elementary school. At that time, the only thing the girl Gaegwi was targeting was children of the same age. The same was true for the severed head ghost that was liberated from the Shinju Complex. The severed head ghost tried to harm Ahyoung’s family first, against which he had a grudge.

I identified something that could be said to be common in the articles.

[A 27-year-old man was found to have committed suicide by jumping from an apartment in Soyeon-dong, Guro-gu. Her bereaved sister, Ms. A, witnessed the suicide scene….]

[Another suicide accident. Why Soyeon-dong? Miss B, the bereaved family member who found the smiling body….]

Most of those who suffered accidents were young men.

These were also men who had younger sisters. The same thing happened to the accident that happened at this house. Because it was Da-jeong’s older brother who had an accident in the bathroom.

‘Almost all men have younger sisters. If this is the work of a ghost… Did you bear any grudges against your brother when he was alive?’

It was when I was lying down and organizing my thoughts.

A rustling sound was heard nearby.

“…….”

I saw that Da-jeong, who was lying nearby, had woken up. Da-jeong turned on her cell phone while lying face down. Light flowed from the liquid crystal display.

Dajeong wasn’t specifically trying to go to the bathroom.

I just lay down on the spot and quietly played with my phone. At first, I thought Dajeong was trying to kill time with her phone because she couldn’t sleep like me. But I looked around and changed my mind.

The EMF meter I turned on before lying down silently turned on.

Five lights blinked at once. This happened from the moment Dajeong suddenly opened her eyes.

I immediately grabbed the tonfa I had laid out in advance and got up.

“Dajeong, what are you doing?”

“Yes.”

“What are you doing?”

“Yes.”

I couldn’t hear a proper answer. I approached Da-jeong, who was lying face down on the blanket. Only then did I know what Dajeong was doing on her phone.

A notepad was displayed on the phone screen.

I saw ominous words written on the notepad.

[My brother tried to commit suicide. If my brother wants to die, I will follow him. My brother tried to commit suicide. If my brother wants to die, I will follow him. My brother tried to commit suicide. If my brother wants to die, I will follow him. My brother tried to commit suicide. If my brother wants to die, I will follow him. My brother tried to commit suicide. If my brother wants to die, I will follow him.]

It was a will. A note suggesting suicide was being written in real time before my eyes. The moment I saw that, I got goosebumps all over my body.

“Hey!”

That was when I shouted. Da-jeong, who was lying down, put down her phone and stood up.

Dajeong, whose face had been expressionless so far, smiled at the corners of her mouth.

I had the same face as my older brother who attempted suicide.

“What… What’s going on…?”

Sera opened her eyes after hearing my shout. There was no time to explain. Dajeong, who was standing in the living room, started running. The sound of pounding footsteps echoed loudly. In the blink of an eye, Da-jeong opened the living room window and tried to jump outside.

“Catch him!”

I hurriedly ran over and grabbed Dajeong’s legs as she hung herself on the window frame. Se-ra also seemed to quickly grasp the situation and grabbed Da-jeong as soon as she got up. Dajeong, who was about to fall headfirst, was caught by us and was clinging to the window frame, thrashing around violently.

“Hee hee hee. Hee hee hee hee.”

Me and Sarah pulled Da-jeong. As we applied our strength at the same time, Da-jeong’s body came into the house. Se-ra held Da-jeong tightly and prevented her from moving.

“Keep holding on!”

“Yes…!”

EMF meter was still responding. A ghost appeared somewhere in this house. I left Da-jeong in the care of Sarah and looked around the house. The mirror hanging on the wall in the living room particularly caught my eye.

There were three of us.

However, the number of people reflected in the mirror was one more.

An unknown woman was with us in the mirror.

She was a woman dressed in blood-red clothes.

A woman in red with an eerie smile was holding Da-jeong in the mirror. She grabbed Da-jeong’s body and tried to drag her towards the window.

I looked alternately near the window and at the mirror reflecting the window. The only person next to Da-jeong near the window was Sarah. There was a woman clearly smiling in the mirror.

When that woman did something in the mirror, the same thing happened in real life. There really wasn’t a woman by our side. If so, the woman’s appearance would have been visible from earlier. That woman looked like she could hurt someone in the mirror.

‘I see.’

I knew how that woman could hurt people.

She had to put the mirror away.

I threw the tonfa at the mirror hanging on the wall. The tonfa flew in a parabola and hit the mirror. The mirror pieces fell to the floor with a loud noise.

It was the moment the mirror broke. Dajeong’s body, which had been shaking near the window, went limp. There was no more struggling. I spread out the blanket and covered the mirror fragments scattered on the floor.

The woman in red has disappeared.

With that, nothing dangerous happened for the time being.

Sarah, who was holding on to Da-jeong, let out a sigh of relief.

“Jinwoo, so what was in the house? What was on the mirror?”

“There was a woman dressed in red in the mirror. The woman dragged Da-jeong toward the window, and the same thing actually happened. It was an evil spirit harming people in the mirror.”

“Then it would be a good idea to cover the other mirrors in this house as well.”

We turned on the lights and covered all the mirrors in the bathroom and other rooms with blankets or cloth. The exorcism is not over yet. Even if I broke the mirror, I couldn’t say that was the woman’s body. I had to find an object that contained the woman’s soul.

“Did you see her face properly?”

“Yes. She was quite a young woman.”

I looked straight into the woman’s face.

She was a young female ghost who appeared to be in her 20s.

A clear clue has emerged.
