Chapter 93

As the morning sun began to rise.
When I arrived home, I was a complete mess—having just climbed out of the water.
“Good heavens, Young Master! What on earth happened to you? Were you swimming somewhere?”
Seung-hun immediately began removing my coat as he spoke.
“I was catching the Water Ghost. I fell into the pond and just got out.”
“The Water Ghost? Ah. A water spirit.”
Seung-hun nodded in understanding.
“Quickly now, remove your clothes and wash up. I’ll start the laundry right away.”
“Yes, yes.”
I immediately undressed in my room.
Meanwhile, Seung-hun stood with his hands clasped together, waiting quietly.
“If you’re returning home now, does that mean you won’t be going to work today?”
“That’s right. They told me to rest for a day before returning.”
“Understood. Will you eat and then sleep?”
“Hmm. Just prepare something simple and bring it to the Workshop.”
“The Workshop?”
“Yes. I have something I need to do.”
I answered briefly before heading straight to the shower.
Seung-hun watched my retreating figure and shrugged his shoulders.
In one sense, he felt a quiet pride seeing how I’d transformed from the hesitant person of a few months ago into someone more proactive.

A moment later.
After showering, Tae-woo changed into casual loungewear and headed straight to the Workshop.
First—his primary concern was how to deal with the Water Ghost.
Of course, since he wouldn’t be fighting the Water Ghost every time, it was impractical to craft a weapon specifically for her alone.
He already had the smart glasses, a watch-shaped Ghost Microphone.
Add to that the LP player, the Ghost Tracking Blade, the Blood Water Sword, and the USP GBB pistol Ye-rim had given him.
There was simply too much equipment to carry into the field.
When he was already thinking about reducing his gear, he couldn’t afford to add more.
“Can I modify the USP so it fires effectively underwater?”
If it were a real firearm, it might have retained considerable stopping power even in water.
Of course, water’s resistance was quite substantial, so real bullets wouldn’t travel far through it either.
But at the very least, it could cover a wider range than swinging a blade.
“Might as well give it a try.”
He dried his hands once, then began working while chewing on the sandwich Baek-hun had prepared for him.
The first task was installing a tracking module into the USP pistol.
The Ghost Tracking Blade and Blood Water Sword were synchronized with the smart glasses, so their status was clear whether equipped or unequipped, and their exact location was displayed whenever they were separated from his body.
He intended to install that same module in the USP so he could track its position like his other equipment.
The module was compact enough to attach securely inside the USP’s hammer.
The work finished quickly.
“Perfect.”
He pushed the wheeled chair aside and moved to the other desk, then put on the smart glasses that had been resting there.
When he powered it on, the familiar boot screen appeared.

[System Booting]

[System Initializing]
[Recording Activated]
[Ghost Sensor Operational]
[Ghost Radar Operational]
[Ghost Microphone Synchronized]

Beep beep—

[Equipment Synchronization in Progress]
[Equipment Synchronization Complete]
[Primary Weapon – Guichaldo (Not Equipped)]
[Secondary Weapon – Blood Water Sword (Not Equipped)]
[Secondary Weapon – USP FULL SIZE (Not Equipped)]
[Flashlight – Battery Remaining 100%]

The USP pistol appeared in the boot UI’s equipment list.
As Tae-woo approached and picked up the pistol, I watched the status change from (Not Equipped) to (Equipped).
“That works.”
Beyond this, I thought it would be nice to add a few more game-like elements.
If I applied the aiming reticle from FPS games directly to the smart glasses, I could achieve instant target acquisition the moment I raised the pistol.
I decided to implement that system and adjusted my posture.
The first thing I needed to do for precise aiming was to enhance the pistol’s performance.
There was no point in aiming if the rounds couldn’t travel straight and true according to my aim.
This pistol, which had an airsoft gun as its basic structure, had undergone modifications in the Technical Department—all its components had been replaced with steel parts.
At this level, it should be able to withstand higher gas pressure.
However, winter reduced gas efficiency and the pistol’s performance, so this disadvantage needed to be addressed.
“Since the energy that fires the rounds is gas pressure itself—I’ll use higher-pressure gas and eliminate internal play to improve grouping….”
I muttered to myself as I focused on the work.

While conducting internal modifications, I also installed special components on the USP pistol’s front and rear sights.
When the front sight, rear sight, and shooter’s eye aligned in a straight line, it was called “proper sight alignment.”
Therefore, to shoot accurately, one had to go through the process of raising the pistol and aligning it with the shooter’s eye.
But to skip that step, I configured the smart glasses to display a yellow dot marking where the pistol’s sights pointed.
This way, even without raising the pistol and achieving proper sight alignment, I could see exactly where the muzzle was aimed through the smart glasses.
“Okay.”
With the work complete, I raised the pistol while holding the smart glasses.
The point where the muzzle aimed appeared as a yellow dot.
The aiming point appeared without needing to use my eyes to align the front and rear sights.
As I rotated the muzzle, the yellow dot in the smart glasses moved to match the pistol’s aim point.
I immediately moved to the Training Field with the pistol.
After setting up a target, I aligned it with the yellow dot visible in the smart glasses and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The round flew straight to the yellow dot and knocked down the target.
It was as precise as a laser pointer mounted on the pistol.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

I swiftly moved the yellow dot across the target, testing my aim on different marks.
As long as my hands didn’t shake, I could hit every shot.
“That’s enough for now.”
I brought the pistol back up with me.
Then I began modifying the magazine.
I was working to ensure that my smart glasses could instantly display how many rounds were loaded in the magazine and how many I’d fired.
Of all the projects I’d undertaken so far, this one consumed the most time.
For several days, the cycle continued—I’d work, then clock in for my shift, clock out, and return to the workbench.
Every time a round entered or left the magazine, I had to have it display in real-time on my smart glasses, and I needed to add components to ensure there were no operational bugs. It was labor-intensive work.
But after a week of grueling effort, I finally completed it, and I tested the modifications with a sense of satisfaction.

Bang— bang— bang— bang—

As I fired at the spots marked by yellow dots, the round count displayed clearly in the lower left corner of my smart glasses UI.

USP FULL SIZE
19/23

The 23 rounds I’d hastily loaded were displayed accurately, and after firing 4 of them, I could intuitively confirm that 19 remained.
“It’s complete. Phew—”
I sank into a chair in the Training Field and exhaled a long, weary breath.

The next day.
Tae-woo arrived at work as usual, but the unusually chaotic atmosphere made him tilt his head in confusion.
As he stepped out of the elevator and made his way toward Team 4’s desks, people huddled together speaking in hushed, serious tones—unlike any other day—and no one acknowledged his greeting.
Among them were Ji-seok and Ye-rim.
When Tae-woo approached awkwardly and greeted them, both nodded with grave expressions.
“What happened?”
Tae-woo asked, glancing around the office.
The fact that every member of the Training Team had risen from their desks to discuss something suggested a serious incident had occurred.
“Someone from Team 1 (Probation) died.”
“What?!”
At Ji-seok’s final words, Tae-woo’s eyes widened in shock.
“Shh. Shh. The mood’s bad.”
He gestured for Tae-woo to be quiet, then motioned for him to follow.
Ye-rim followed behind him as well, returning immediately to Team 4’s desks.
“What’s going on? Someone died?”
Tae-woo whispered, glancing at his other teammates.
Ye-rim answered him.
“Last night, Moon So-ryeong and two Team 1 employees went out to a field. One of them died, and Moon So-ryeong was seriously injured.”
Knowing Moon So-ryeong’s abilities, Tae-woo found this shocking.
“Isn’t Moon So-ryeong nearly on par with Cha Manager?”
“That’s how it should be.”
“But how could a team member die and the manager get hurt like that?”
“Check request number 89688. That must be the field.”
“Ah, yes.”
Tae-woo immediately sat down and pulled up the request documents from the web storage.

[No.89668 – Exorcism Request: Happy Motel, Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province]

I scrolled through the content quickly, skimming the details.
About a year ago, deaths began occurring inside a building called Happy Motel in Bundang, Seongnam.
It started when a woman staying with a man slashed his throat with a razor blade, then escalated when a drunk guest checking in got into a scuffle with the counter staff—ending not only with the staff member’s death, but also a suicide incident.
As these incidents kept happening, the motel owner requested that Sangsu Bosal investigate what curse had befallen the place. Sangsu Bosal, a subcontractor for Guihon Trading, visited the motel and discovered the spirit of a very powerful murderer.
It turned out that Happy Motel’s former name was Sangsang Motel, and it was where Kim Baek-hun, a serial killer who had murdered twenty people, had stayed.
After committing his final murder, he had remained at the motel, but when the police arrived and he found no escape, he took his own life there.
Afterward, Sangsang Motel continued operating, but the owner suddenly jumped from the motel’s rooftop, causing business to cease. The current owner acquired Sangsang Motel and renamed it Happy Motel.
“He acquired it three years ago, changed the signage, and completely remodeled the facilities. I thought there wouldn’t be any problems after that, but starting a year ago, these incidents began occurring. According to Sangsu Bosal’s investigation, that serial killer’s ghost has been roaming the motel.”
Ji-seok provided the additional explanation beside me.
“If he acquired it three years ago and deaths started occurring a year ago, why was it quiet for those two years in between?”
I asked.
Then Ye-rim delivered the final response.
“That’s just the ghost’s mood.”
“Ah.”
I nodded at Ye-rim’s words.
Just then, Cha Jun-ho hurried out of the elevator.
The employees who had been gathered in small groups whispering all greeted him.
“Yeah, yeah.”
Cha Jun-ho gave a casual wave to the greeting employees and quickly approached Team 4’s area.
Ji-seok, Ye-rim, and I stood up from our seats to greet him.
“Hey. You all heard about Moon Manager, right?”
“Yes, we did.”
“Orders just came down from upstairs. We’re heading out to Happy Motel tonight.”
At those words, we all looked at each other.
