‘False One’ Detection Radar

When the 1st period is free morning walks, when classes ended early evening walks pretending and passed in front of daycares or kindergartens.

Especially in the morning encounters with children were frequent.

“Wow, a dog!”

“Cute!”

Of course when passing these kinds of places didn’t put Arong down and held in arms.

There are also children afraid of dogs, and children who try to torment.

And.

“Can I touch the dog?”

“Yeah, no. Please get permission from parents and come.”

If you have a dog allergy it’s a big problem. That I can’t treat.

Anyway thanks to the children chattering, could easily hide the ‘Treat, yes’ skill command.

Due to children’s characteristics moving well, there are also many times ‘Sloppy Treatment’ aim fails.

However this kind of walk also ended in one week.

“Sorry, Arong. With me for a while have to only do night walks.”

Whine.

Before knowing June.

Final exams approached right in front. Assignment bombs even fell, busy days without a moment to open eyes continued.

“Still you don’t do part-time! I have to do part-time to live? But can’t even give this much consideration?”

“Hey, then what about the one who did all the assigned while even doing part-time? And consideration is not an obligation. Why forcing?”

“You really too much. Still I did my best···.”

“Do you think we’re all free? If looking at your circumstances, my circumstances all there is no end?”

“Come come, doing this the assignment doesn’t complete itself. First junior, swore to God did your best right?”

“···Yes?”

Occasionally also mediated troubles between team members.

Also studied hard at the library and home.

“Hot. ···Treat, yes.”

While also treating if a [Contagious Disease Patient] coincidentally enters the treatable distance.

Then one day.

Ding.

-[Hello, Plague Doctor-nim. Final exams soon so busy right?]

While doing an assignment and briefly stretching, a DM came from Lee Mun-yeong after a long time.

-[Because there’s a happy news to inform.]

Happy news?

Blankly looking, soon the next message arrived.

-[This morning, Jang Deok-il player became a dad. Both wife and child are safe, especially the child is extremely healthy.]

Oh.

I quickly sent a reply.

[Please convey congratulations to Jang player!]

-[Yes. And Jang Deok-il player said this is all thanks to the Plague Doctor-nim, wants to give a gift.]

Trying to give Red Phantom goods again?

That won’t do.

Still a lot remaining from what received last time.

[Please convey will only receive the heart.]

-[Yes. And··· Jang Deok-il player said there’s also one request.]

[What request?]

-[Said hoped the Plague Doctor-nim hugs the child once. Wanting to let the child meet the life benefactor^^]

“Life benefactor···.”

Without realizing muttered out loud.

Previously when parting with Jang Deok-il, the words he said came to mind.

「The ‘Plague Doctor’-nim is no different from a benefactor who saved our family.」

Newly various emotions arose.

Also embarrassing, also seems proud.

Just used the skill obtained by awakening somehow receiving a large amount···.

Anyway in the current state if hugging that child, the premonition that tears of emotion will burst somehow.

And come to think of it then while achieving the achievement ‘Guardian of the Sprout of Hope’, beneficiary target immunity +3 appeared.

Who among Jang Deok-il’s wife and child did that go to?

By any chance if I see can I know?

I briefly hesitated then sent a DM to Lee Mun-yeong.

[When vacationㅎ]

-[Yes^^]

When meeting definitely have to buy a baby gift.

***

A few days passed.

“······.”

I sat blankly, listening to the excited students’ voices echoing in the lecture room.

Finally the 1st semester last exam ended.

“Hey, Kang Bong-sik.”

Park Jae-yoon and close juniors came to my seat.

“Have to go drink one glass commemorating the end of the semester?”

“Jae-yoon oppa says he’ll buy chicken. Senior will also go together right?”

“Really you buying?”

“Father gave the card. Heh.”

“Then not you but your father buying.”

Park Jae-yoon let out a laugh.

“Going right?”

I nodded and stood up.

“Call.”

Have to give a reward to me who suffered for several days.

“Then today can see Bong-sik senior getting drunk?”

“This guy even if drunk nothing special. Just smiles more and the greeting nature becomes brighter degree?”

“That degree is a gentleman. How many people change strangely when drunk. I really hate seeing people who when drunk put on airs and pretend strong.”

“Right.”

“But where going?”

“Just if there’s a place with seats have to enter. You didn’t bring the car today either?”

“Yeah.”

After coming out of the building, lightly loosened the stiff body here and there.

[Contagious Disease Patient (20)]

[Contagious Disease Patient (15)]

The texts pushed from consciousness for a while one by one came into view.

“Bong-sik senior what will you do during vacation?”

Junior Yu Han-na gently held my clothes and asked. Both eyes were full of curiosity.

“Also doing volunteer work, and trying to attend an academy.”

“Not doing part-time?”

“Yeah.”

Not that treatment prayer requests come in often, but the thought that finding [Contagious Disease Patient] and treating and leveling up in that time is better than doing part-time.

Also not that short of money.

I’m the ‘Plague Doctor’ who became the benefactor of a family and earned over 100 million.

“Regrettable. Wanted to do part-time together with senior.”

“What part-time?”

Yu Han-na grinned.

“Escape room cafe. Briefly did last year, the boss there said how about working together with a friend this vacation.”

“Isn’t escape room cafe work easy? Previously my friend also liked saying honey part-time. Is a seat out?”

Park Jae-yoon asked while moving steps together.

“There is a bit.”

Yu Han-na made a meaningful expression.

“Because there’s that kind of rumor, many kids who can’t endure a few days and quit. This time newly decorated all rooms with horror themes so might be more severe?”

“Ghosts come out?”

“I never heard or saw strange sounds once. And the boss said if bringing a handsome or pretty friend, will give more hourly wage.”

Park Jae-yoon swept his front hair and smiled greasily.

“Then have to take me, Han-na.”

“···Ugh.”

“What, this reaction?”

“Park Jae-yoon, be thankful not hit by the junior.”

Midway other same years or juniors also joined, we noisily tore chicken and drank alcohol at a nearby chicken restaurant. And also went to the escape room cafe Yu Han-na did part-time.

“This is right but why doesn’t the lock open?”

“Bong-sik senior, seems like 6 not 9···.”

Crack.

“······.”

“···Kang Bong-sik damaged the store property!”

Returning was around past 1 in the dawn.

Deliberately drank less than the capacity, so the mind was fairly fine.

“Arong~.”

Bark! Bark!

“Shh.”

Sat in the living room and hugged Arong.

“Cute Arong~.”

Rub rub.

“Ahyu, look at the drunkard’s behavior.”

Sister sighed as soon as coming out of the room. Then crouched in front of me.

“Hey.”

“Cute Arong~.”

“I got employed. Contact came that passed today.”

“Arong, doesn’t it seem like some auditory hallucination is heard?”

Sister pulled my ear.

“This bastard not even a congratulation greeting.”

“Aya ya. ···Waited not sleeping to boast that?”

“I originally sleep at this time?”

I stared at Sister.

“Because sleeping late every day the skin is that shape···. Aya ya.”

“Anyway, think of one thing you want. When receiving the first salary I’ll buy.”

Sister entered the room without even hearing the answer. I rubbed against Arong again.

“Cute Arong~.”

Whether continuously bothering emitting a thick alcohol smell, in the end Arong whose patience reached the limit twitched his muzzle.

···Growl.

“Sorry.”

The next day.

After a long time slept in late as much as wanted and got up. And played with Arong for a long time, then washed and prepared to go out.

“Arong, the sunlight is hot so the walk have to do in the evening.”

Groan.

The place going today is the academy. The place Jang Hye-rim previously recommended saying the TOEIC special lecture is okay.

I didn’t drive the car, and leisurely walked.

“Treat, yes.”

On the way if a daycare or kindergarten is visible, also briefly threw the ‘Plague Treatment’ skill.

A short while later.

Arrived at the academy matching the reserved consultation time.

“Hello. Reserved TOEIC special lecture consultation on the internet.”

“Yes, what is the name?”

“Kang···.”

[False One]

“······?”

I who was about to answer the desk staff, suddenly turned my head at the bright red text sweeping the vision.

Far away corridor end.

A familiar face wearing [False One] was visible.

Junior Lee Jeong-ju who previously tried to drag Park Jae-yoon into a cult religion.

While taking one lecture together with Lee Jeong-ju there is a fact naturally known.

That is, the system once caught [False One] the text is visible even if only entering a radius of over 100 meters.

When first detecting have to enter within over 20 meters.

For reference, people who briefly became [False One] with a lie swearing God’s name are excluded.

“The name?”

The desk staff asked again.

“Ah···.”

Want to avoid encountering cultists as much as possible.

And beside Lee Jeong-ju Kim So-yeon was also together. Still no [False One], but isn’t a believer where that doesn’t appear actually a scarier person?

“Kang Bong-sik, please cancel the consultation reservation. Seems like have to ponder a bit more.”

“Yes···.”

The thought that if those two are seeking proselytizing victims at this academy, stopping that is right does arise.

But I didn’t come here to stop the spread of cult religion, but to study.

If the one thought as a proselytizing victim, knowing is an ordinary believer like Kim So-yeon where [False One] doesn’t appear?

Only I become a fool who flew the expensive academy fee and time with unnecessary meddling.

“Difficult, difficult.”

Can just ignore and live like at school but···.

Sparkle.

“······?”

Sighing and coming out of the academy, suddenly the ‘regular patient finding’ function activated.

This means there is regular patient Jin Se-hyeok within a radius of 500 meters.

“······.”

I didn’t bother executing the function.

I’m not a stalker either.

Have to protect our regular patient’s privacy.

[System]

-‘False One’ has been detected around ‘regular patient (1)’.

“······?”

Paused.

What’s this.

‘False One’ detection?

I looked around and muttered small.

“Execute regular patient finding.”

A complicated map with Seoul geography detailed appeared.

That end.

Beside the small crow icon representing Jin Se-hyeok one bright red dot was sparkling.

The location is the middle of the road.

I looked at that and called Jin Se-hyeok.

-[Yeah, Bong-sik. What’s the occasion, even calling first?]

“Just curious if doing well. Where is hyung?”

-[Now going to the dorm. You Bong-sik?]

“Me Jongno.”

-[Huh? I’m also Jongno? Shall we meet? I’m off until tomorrow so free.]

“Is there no one beside?”

-[There’s the manager hyung.]

Jin Se-hyeok’s manager was not [False One].

Wasn’t but···.

If fell into a cult religion in a few days?

At that time the crow icon moved then.

[System]

-‘Regular patient (1)’ left the detection distance.

Both the map and crow icon disappeared.

Seems went out of the detection distance by car.

“Yes. Let’s meet and eat or something.”

An completely unknown person being proselytized and an acquaintance, that too my regular patient being proselytized is different.

“If okay with the manager too. At a place as close as possible.”

By the way the regular patient doing the role of [False One] detection radar.

Seems not that the finding function is there meaning to intensively care because a patient who gets sick often.

A short while later.

Met Jin Se-hyeok and his manager at a not far Chinese restaurant.

“Bong-sik, hi.”

“Hello.”

Above Jin Se-hyeok’s manager’s head there was no [False One].

But.

[System]

-‘False One’ has been detected around ‘regular patient (1)’.

Why does this appear again?

I looked around, and discovered two [False One] walking opposite the restaurant.

Faces covered with sunglasses and masks, but strangely could know who right away.

The cult leader, and actor Choi Hyun-su’s former manager.

The wanted guy and his helper.
