Even If I Fall Into a Ghost Story, I Still Have to Go to Work Episode 365

I looked into the drawer again with trembling eyes.

However, the items inside hadn’t changed.

Labor contract.

What was there was definitely the contract I had signed.

After drinking the Wish Potion, at the moment when I realized the truth and collapsed as my identity crumbled, Director Cheong appeared and offered me a lifeline for survival.

Or a deadly noose.

-It’s a contract. You just need to sign it. I promise very humane treatment.

I ended up signing it.

I signed it to survive, and worked as 130666 in the Security Team….

But why is it here, inside the abandoned resort management office in my inner world?

…Wait.

‘Could this be the binding force itself of the contract that restrains me?’

Could it be taking shape and settling in the depths of my inner self, in this drawer? In this drawer that has the symbolic meaning of collecting ‘resort employment contracts’!

If so.

If so…!

I grasped the labor contract with trembling hands.

I can feel its texture as if it were real.

And.

Riiiiiiip.

I tear it apart.

The center splits magnificently and the labor contract paper that had bound me tears in half.

I raised my eyes at the deep pleasure and sense of liberation rising within me, then lowered them again….

I see the labor contract.

An intact, untorn paper is held in my hand.

“….”

I tore it again.

Riiiiiiip.

I blink my eyes.

I see the labor contract.

I tore it again.

Riiiiiiip.

I blink my eyes.

I see the labor contract.

I tore it again.

Riiiiiiip.

I blink my eyes.

I see the labor contract….

‘Stop!’

I stopped my hands while panting.

It seems I can’t damage this labor contract just by tearing it.

Right, it couldn’t be that easy….

Good Friend

Where where are you hiding?

My body froze.

…From beyond the corridor, I detected signs of presence from far away.

A contaminated Daydream character is coming this way….

“….”

This time I didn’t touch the door.

No, without making any sound at all, I crawled behind the management office desk and crouched down.

Thud.

Please.

Thud.

Pass by.

Thud.

The sound gets very close.

Thud.

And.

Thud….

….

…It’s moving away.

‘Hah.’

Drenched in cold sweat, still unable to move, I strained my hearing to listen to the sound moving away.

I can feel the vibration of that thing, which didn’t notice me, going to the other side of the corridor….

‘Have I become… somewhat freer?’

It seems that Mascot is having more difficulty tracking than when it was in the old Daydream office.

‘Is it because I escaped once?’

Of course, if this time dragged on, there was a high probability that another Good Friend hunting method would emerge.

So let me pull myself together.

Quickly, quickly!

‘What should I do?’

I gritted my teeth while looking at the labor contract still in my hand.

If tearing it doesn’t work….

Right.

‘…What about modifying the content?’

A pen!

I reached out and silently rummaged through the desk, quickly finding and picking up a pen.

It’s a fountain pen.

Hurriedly, I dipped the ink and drew it across the contract.

‘I modified the Resort employment contract like this too.’

To make it safer, so that humans could work with as few problems as possible. So perhaps my employment contract could also be modified in a similar way…

“….”

The ink on the paper disappears.

As if it had never existed, the traces of the fountain pen flowed down from the employment contract and fell to the floor.

Drip.

It doesn’t work.

As if I don’t have the qualification to modify this.

‘Ah.’

Right. I was able to modify the details of the Resort employment contract to some extent because I was the principal, the employer.

Moreover, I can’t arbitrarily modify a contract that’s already been signed.

Without mutual agreement with Director Cheong, no, even then I don’t know if it could be modified.

One thing is certain.

I don’t have the authority.

[It’s a dead end, Friend.]

[Will you look for another path?]

Right.

At a dead end, I had to set out to find a new path.

A method where I have authority.

An action that can influence this contract.

…There is one.

“….”

I,

grabbed the employment contract.

And ‘read it out’.

With Wiki.
