Wish-Fulfilling Jewel, Heard of It?
Tak.
Caught the tilting Go Jaeyeong.
Behind the girl limp in my arms the trash pile stacked like a mountain caught the eye like background.
‘Damn.’
Curses reflexively popped out.
Because seemed the nightmare that suddenly raided reproduced.
‘Why of all the trash incinerator.’
That day in my nightmare dawn of midwinter pouring heavy rain mixed with sleet.
The moment frantically searching the landfill and finding this woman’s corpse.
That scene preserved like a photo and came as nightmare.
-Damn.
In that winter’s heavy rain stinging the skin shaaa.
The woman cooled cold like ice.
-You why lying here in such appearance.
-Who stuffed you in the trash pile.
-Say. What bastard did this?
The dead woman had no words.
Always so.
Rarely a way of chattering.
-Why did so?
-What those guys aiming was me, why stubbornly shut mouth to the end?
-If caught as hostage should have behaved obediently. Should have endured until I come to take you.
When discovered the faint smile formed at the woman’s mouth corner anger surged unbearably.
Usually not even smiling well.
-You not my woman. Then why dying as my woman.
-Should have said not. Not my woman, don’t know the likes of me.
-If not that rather should have sold me. I’m your irreconcilable enemy?
Probably dragged right after holding a bloody battle pointing knives at each other.
-If you opened the mouth the person abandoned here not you but me.
The woman looking up at the sky without even closing eyes.
The empty pupils not containing my appearance displeasing.
-Saying revenge. Saying want to revenge. Saying only revenge left for you now.
-This the revenge you said?
Rainwater flowed down the woman’s cheek like tears.
Tears flowed down the tip of my chin like rainwater.
Inevitable.
-Damn.
The hand closing the dead woman’s eyes trembled.
Cold like an ice sheet.
Couldn’t believe.
Didn’t want to believe.
-If this your revenge······ seems succeeded.
Thus this woman became my lifelong nightmare.
“Oppa? Why gritting teeth?”
At Yerin’s call suddenly spirit returned.
Realized holding Go Jaeyeong roughly.
“A bad fate with no thought of reconnecting.”
Couldn’t even throw the unconscious girl on the trash site floor.
Yet not turning away, nor properly embracing.
I merely exhaled a sigh.
“One vicious nightmare enough.”
Have to end dying because of me with one time too.
Wouldn’t that better for me too, for Go Jaeyeong too?
Yerin blankly looked at such me.
[Piyak piyak!]
The vermilion bird sitting on Yerin’s shoulder somehow grown house-sized state.
The vermilion bird spreading wings wide cried noisily.
[Piyak piyak! Kieeek!]
Yerin’s expression gradually sinks heavily.
Accordingly Yerin’s eyes gradually close.
Yerin held out a hand as if possessed.
“Fortune fee.”
“No thought.”
“Quickly.”
“No thought of connecting, so no thought of looking into either.”
“Then receive as I please?”
Yerin almost closing eyes held me.
Precisely wrapped my face and pulled toward herself.
Peck.
A sudden raid suffered.
I eyes became round, conversely Yerin’s eyes completely closed.
The meaning peeking at heavenly secrets unable to bear.
“Said from the beginning. Noble person. Said precious guest.”
King Yama said.
I received heavenly punishment and human fortune unfortunate.
Among fates deeply entangled with such me no one not bad fate.
This woman also one of them.
“Said terrifying but a person who will help oppa tremendously tremendously. No way such person bad fate.”
I shook the head.
Our end dirty, and ultimately remained as wounds to each other.
To her I was enemy, to me she was nightmare.
“Oppa knows this unnie’s birth date?”
Yes.
The day discovered her in the trash pile.
Also the day I passed away.
So the day absolutely can’t forget.
All her birthday.
“Recite. I will look into.”
The vermilion bird cried kieeek once more.
Not piyaking cutely as usual.
This pretender absolutely doesn’t cry screaming so when Yerin in sound mind.
“If bad fate as oppa said will help cleanly cut.”
Dozing Yerin smiled brightly.
“I’m misfortune prevention shaman. That’s my specialty. Trust me?”
“······Yes.”
Yerin who received Go Jaeyeong’s birth date largely admired.
“Uwaa! Wish-fulfilling jewel!”
Suddenly what wish-fulfilling jewel?
“Extremely rare four pillars that come out once in hundreds of years or not! Precious four pillars as much as oppa came out!”
What? Go Jaeyeong?
“Incarnation of wise mother good wife! Specimen of pushover fate! Auspiciousness of wealth and honor and five blessings long life itself!”
No way?
Yerin clicked the tongue.
“Somehow. Even before entering oppa’s house already seemed precious guest enough to fill with holy energy.”
Nonsense!
“Yerin, look well once more.”
What wish-fulfilling jewel in this woman’s fate.
“Honestly not close to heavenly punishment fate?”
A woman who lost parents young, sat on the street overnight and discovered covered in blood in the market back alley.
Lived shouting blood-tied revenge and held bloody battles with knife fights for life.
Died an unnatural death at young age wearing the false charge of my woman and abandoned in the landfill.
‘Go Jaeyeong also all fates entangled only bad fates of betrayal or trying to snatch. Even treated me as enemy.’
Such woman born with extremely rare four pillars.
Telling me to believe that?
“Know why wish-fulfilling jewel wish-fulfilling jewel?”
Yerin smiled.
“Wish-fulfilling jewel because fate changes depending on whose mouth held.”
Somehow words sounding meaningful.
“If dragon holds becomes a peerless treasure opening the gate of heaven, if dog holds becomes a toy bead rolling in the doghouse and stuffed in the trash can.”
Yerin glanced at Go Jaeyeong collapsed unconscious.
“Heard the words woman’s fate follows man’s fate? This unnie extremely a four pillars of sharing joy and sorrow following man’s fate.”
······Uh?
No man for Go Jaeyeong.
Heard only one man in her life me, ultimately couldn’t connect properly with me.
Because of vicious misunderstanding.
“This unnie has no innate own fate. Life decided according to the man’s fate fate connected.”
Wait.
Wait a minute!
‘Surely······.’
Asked just in case.
“If this woman lost parents early and wandered the back alley holding bloody battles, died an unnatural death at young age without even marrying without a connected man······.”
“Unlucky sound! Such can’t exist for this unnie, and shouldn’t exist.”
True though······.
I know watching by the side.
She lived so and went.
As unfortunate as me, lonely, desperately struggling······.
“Unless the man who held this unnie received heavenly punishment and extremely unfortunate fate.”
“······.”
I tightly closed the mouth.
Yerin said cutting.
“Wish-fulfilling jewel where ordinary precious thing? If dragon holds wields heaven and earth harmony, if person obtains grants wishes.”
“······.”
“Even if knot hole eyes attached all know wish-fulfilling jewel precious. Will treasure as family treasure and serve preciously generation after generation?”
“······.”
“Obviously covetable eyes turning at a glance, no way leaving quietly? If man can’t control limbs and charge.”
“······.”
Yerin snorted.
“To such unnie what? No man to connect? This face, this beauty, this financial power, this skill? Sound making sense?”
“······.”
“Knife fighting in the back alley? To such extremely rare four pillars? Sound even appropriate?”
“······.”
“How thrusting heavenly punishment fate to such treasure? Is there matter dropping wish-fulfilling jewel in the dung pit?”
“······.”
“Saying wish-fulfilling jewel even making imugi into dragon and ascending?”
“······.”
Speechless.
First time in my life words to answer so exhausted.
“Yellow dragon wish-fulfilling jewel! Look, whoever sees set with oppa?”
Still closing eyes Yerin smiled brightly.
“So I said from the beginning. This unnie fate with oppa very deep. Noble person who helps oppa tremendously tremendously!”
Yerin collapsed swish as is.
“How? Even this bad fate?”
“Yerin!”
Held the powerlessly collapsing Yerin with one arm.
Holding the two unconscious women no choice but to exhale a troubled sigh.
“So why of all the trash incinerator······.”
Can’t throw even one in this dirty mud.
* * *
Flicked fingers.
Tak!
‘Hey, guardian deity! Cleanup all finished?’
[Of course! Seeing me as what!]
The underworld messenger rose swish like smoke.
A triumphant expression.
[If everyone sleeps soundly and wakes won’t even think of dreams?]
‘Can’t trust. Shut up and vision share.’
[Vision share!]
Person nearby to ask for help······ what, why this?
[How? This level excellent as cleanup?]
‘······.’
Full of people collapsed and sleeping here and there.
In the backyard too, in the flower bed too, on the stairs too, in the hallway too.
In the classroom students lying prone as a group immersed in deep sleep.
[Put to sleep soundly!]
‘Who said put to sleep so soundly?’
Aigo, two!
‘Does this situation look normal to you now?’
[······.]
‘Whoever sees seems school ghost story itself.’
[······.]
‘Wake. Count three. One, two.’
[Understood, said understood!]
The underworld messenger ran hurriedly.
Not long after the whole school murmured noisily.
* * *
“What?”
The teacher who slept soundly lying in the hallway suddenly came to senses and sat up.
“What?”
The next class teacher the same.
“What?”
The teacher scratching the disheveled head waking on the stairs looked around.
“Why me here like this?”
“Seems dreamed some profound dream.”
“Why memory not coming?”
In the classroom students shouted like screams.
“What? Why me here like this?”
“You too? Me too!”
“Seems dreamed some tremendous dream.”
“Memory not coming······.”
“Me too!”
Kids looked around.
“Class time not ended yet, where teacher went?”
“Somehow feeling-like feeling went saying going to the bathroom?”
“Uh? I also know that! Seems vaguely dreamed such!”
“Sooooooorm!”
Rattle, tak!
The homeroom teacher entered opening the classroom door.
“These guys, why so noisy during class time? Not coming to senses?”
“Teacher!”
Bang!
The homeroom teacher struck the teacher’s desk with the attendance book.
“Even if spring okay dozing during class time?”
Students made strange expressions looking at each other.
“What? This scene just now, somehow too familiar?”
“Me too! Somehow seems experienced earlier!”
“Not even possessed by ghost······.”
“Seems heard these words too! In the dream!”
“Me too, me too!”
As kids murmured the homeroom teacher struck the teacher’s desk consecutively bang bang with the attendance book.
“Until when talk? Not looking at textbook?”
The more so students’ complexions paled white.
“The same! Words heard earlier!”
“How this on earth?”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The homeroom teacher struck the teacher’s desk with the attendance book.
“All movement prohibited! Who continuously talk during class time? Want to receive group reprimand?”
Students screamed falling into panic.
“World, I seem heard these words too!”
“Teacher, surely not saying solve the practice problems on the next page?”
“Uaaak! I also remember those words! Us all buying housing lottery together······.”
Students simultaneously shouted pyaek.
“Seems ghost came and went!”
“Us sleeping as a group simultaneously from the start a matter that doesn’t make sense!”
“Clearly ghost’s act! Certain!”
Crying and wailing burst simultaneously.
“Mom aa, scary!”
“How go to school now, eohuheung!”
“Don’t cry. Even me becoming scary, euaang!”
This class, that class, lower grades, upper grades without distinction began crying.
The ones who became panic facing this situation the homeroom teachers the same.
“Kids, kids, stop! Who cries during class time?”
“Euaaang!”
“No ghost! Where ghost in the world······.”
The homeroom teacher stopped words midway and closed the mouth.
Because no other method to explain the appearance of teachers collapsed in a pile in the hallway and stairs except ghost.
The homeroom teacher ignored the cold sweat flowing down the spine and tried to pretend calm.
“Today class end! Let’s go home!”
Even though regular class time not ended yet finished class at discretion.
Because no other way visible to clean up this situation.
U-gwang private school’s 7 great ghost stories!
U-gwang private school sleep ghost putting students and teachers to sleep as a group!
Infinite loop classroom where the same words, the same dream, the same scene repeat!
Why did the golden dragon coil in the trash incinerator!
Become the first owner of the dragon dream?
Group prayer! Kim Jung-bae’s diamond ring, or housing lottery, that the problem!
The moment preserved as school ghost story.
