These Mouse Bastards

Parking lot.

I handed one sheet of paper to Jang Deok-il.

[Plague Doctor free use ticket x5]

Hastily written on a sketchbook and made. Below also drew a small crow drawing.

“Uh···. This, really giving?”

Nod nod.

Made the daughter into a [Follower].

Don’t know well what this is, but anyway sorry.

Jang Deok-il whether knowing my insides or not, received smiling brightly.

“Thank you. And this, said will only receive the heart but still too thankful so prepared. If not to liking you can sell or throw away.”

A paper bag containing one box.

Didn’t look like Red Phantom goods.

Bow.

Because materialistic received gratefully.

“Then we’ll be going now. Please rest.”

“Yes. Really thank you for the two people coming today.”

Exchanged greetings and got in Lee Mun-yeong’s car.

Jang Deok-il like last time deeply bowed his head throughout until the car we rode went far.

“‘Plague Doctor’-nim, do you have separate plans during vacation?”

When leaving the parking lot Lee Mun-yeong asked.

“No. Trying to play while studying English.”

“Envious.”

Lee Mun-yeong’s expression and voice contained sincerity.

“In 2 years I’ll be envying Secretary Lee.”

Seeing Sister, knew that getting employed at a large good company is really not an easy matter.

Chatting this and that before knowing the place where my car was parked.

“Please enter carefully, ‘Plague Doctor’-nim.”

“Yes. Thank you today.”

Exchanged greetings and got in my car. Only then confirmed the gift received from Jang Deok-il.

A luxury bag anyone would know came out.

“Wow···.”

This also have to hide tightly in the closet.

No, rather if carrying around proudly will think it’s a fake?

***

“Came early? Thought went to drink alcohol.”

Mother who was watching TV in the living room asked.

“Briefly did a drive and came.”

“What’s that?”

“Bought by used transaction. Sister still hasn’t come in?”

Sister’s room door was widely open. Arong who was occupying Sister’s bed and rolling slowly came down.

“Went to drink alcohol with friends commemorating employment, would come in early?”

Naturally a sigh came out.

No matter how much that stalker entered the prison, still, what time is it now.

Early this year.

The stalker following Sister swung a weapon at me and was booked for special assault. After it was revealed there are similar previous convictions, sentenced to actual imprisonment and currently incarcerated.

“Sister Mom and Dad will take care, so Bong-sik you don’t worry and sleep.”

“Yees.”

The next day dawn.

I changed clothes and came out.

Bark!

Arong who was in the living room approached wagging his tail gladly.

“Yeah, let’s go for a walk.”

Arong’s walk is at least twice a day.

These days the weather is extremely hot, so going out as much as possible at times when the sun hasn’t risen.

“Before that also brush the fur prettily, and wash face~.”

When finally choosing clothes with cooling function.

“Where going···.”

Sister came out with eyes half closed. The face that turned pale white was swollen.

“Wow, ugly Kang Hyun-seo.”

“Want to die? Ah, seems like the stomach will flip···.”

“How much did you drink.”

“Before going out prick the hand a bit and go···.”

Tsk tsk.

I clicked my tongue and raised my body.

[System]

-Equipped a needle.

-Can use skill ‘Bloodletting’.

Now inducing blood to gather on the left thumb became quite familiar.

Tightly wrapped the thumb with thread, and deeply pricked below the nail with a disinfected needle.

“Ah! Seems a bit more painful than last time?”

“Yeah. Because emotion is in it so.”

“This shit.”

Pitch-black blood rose roundly, and I quickly pulled the upper body back.

Burp.

“Ah, cool.”

“Kang Hyun-seo really.”

[System]

-‘Bloodletting’ proficiency +1

-Experience +0.4%

“Sister you know being born as a sister is fortunate. If not would have immediately smashed the back.”

“What man?”

Suddenly the sentence of the achievement ‘We only draw really bad ones’ came to mind.

This by any chance not that folk remedy works, but by system action really something bad comes out together? So the effect appears immediately.

Anyway treating Sister is the third time.

Contagious disease once, pricking the hand twice.

If filled total 7 times like this, Sister will also be registered as a regular patient like Jin Se-hyeok. Then whenever at home the crow icon will always sparkle.

“Now won’t prick.”

“Why.”

“Just. Anyway I’m going for a walk with Arong.”

“When coming hangover relief.”

“Yeah.”

Holding Arong and riding the elevator down, discovered [Contagious Disease Patient (30)] on the 1st floor.

“Treat, yes.”

Seeing no movement at all seems sleeping, so threw ‘Plague Treatment’ before leaving the common entrance.

Since Sunday the daycare is also off, no need to save ‘Sloppy Treatment’ times.

[System]

-‘Plague Treatment’ hit.

-‘Plague Treatment’ proficiency +0.3

-Experience +1.01%

[MP 180/210]

“Oh, hit.”

Lick.

Arong who was held in arms suddenly licked my chin.

“As expected animals feel this power.”

The tigers also were like that. Used ‘Plague Treatment’ skill on another [Contagious Disease Patient] child nearby, and immediately recognized me and chased.

“Knowing by smell? Or another sense?”

After returning from the walk, excluding Sister sprawled sleeping did a big clean with the parents and ate. And leisurely spent time then prepared to go out.

“You going somewhere again···.”

Sister who slept all day came out of the room. This time with a swollen face with vitality.

“Bong-sik said going to part-time.”

“What part-time?”

“Said escape room cafe right?”

I nodded to Mother.

“Yes.”

“Escape room? Where is the place? What’s the name?”

“What will you do knowing. A junior asked for help so going only today.”

“Woman? It’s a woman.”

Sister grinned.

I recalled the fact that said the cafe name to Mother, and warned Sister.

“Not that kind of thing so don’t come.”

“Who said going?”

“I’ll be back.”

“Yeah, go carefully.”

A short while later.

Arrived at the escape room cafe.

Previously came after drinking so didn’t know well, whether because basement a stuffy yet humid smell was a lot.

Yu Han-na welcomed me with a widely smiling face.

“Welcome, senior.”

“Hi. Is the boss not here?”

In the hall there were many waiting guests.

“Yes. Instead, the manager is beside.”

Greeted the manager politely.

“Hello. I’m one-day part-timer Kang Bong-sik. Please take good care.”

“Yes, hello. Handsome as heard from Han-na. Above all the skin, wow. Do you go to dermatology?”

I smiled slyly.

“No. Heaven gave.”

“Hmm, bright personality so good.”

The manager roughly informed the work I have to do.

Guest reception and hall organization at the counter, and cleaning.

Said Yu Han-na and the manager will organize the theme rooms. Anyway I don’t know what the original hint or prop state is.

“Still asking just in case. Bong-sik, are you gutsy?”

“Yes, strong side.”

Until now seeing a ghost, only the spirit photo of the cat Nabi filmed somehow a while ago.

Even then only a bit creepy, not scary.

Also no closing eyes or covering ears while watching horror movies, except when saw ‘○ point’.

The manager smiled with a relieved face.

“Fortunate. Then later when organizing the room okay to ask for help briefly?”

“Yes. Please call anytime.”

Inside the counter the reception manual and ment were all organized, so the work was not difficult.

Since also came as a guest last time.

In the hall music was played loudly to cover the theme room’s BGM and screams.

[Contagious Disease Patient (20)]

“Treat, yes.”

Thanks to that could treat guests easily.

Ding ring.

“Yes, counter.”

Yu Han-na received the interphone ringing while monitoring CCTV, and when guests exit reset the theme room taking turns with the manager.

Whether all themes are horror, the guests who succeeded in escaping had almost similar expressions.

“Wow···. Really extremely scary.”

“Scary.”

“But earlier really that sound, you didn’t make?”

“Said no?”

“Then what on earth was that flapping sound? I clearly saw? The lower part of the broom shaking.”

“Said you saw wrong?”

“Excuse me, is there some device on the broom too?”

I guided as heard from the manager.

“No. Our store props all do not move without notice.”

Among guests there were also people who said too scary can’t do, and gave up midway crying and came out.

Is it that scary?

When no guests in the hall asked Yu Han-na.

“Previously you Han-na said. There’s a ghost rumor here. Real?”

“Ah, that? That···. Welcome!”

“Welcome.”

Greeted following Yu Han-na and turned my head.

Sister entered smiling brightly with friends.

“Bong-sik, hi~.”

“Hello, younger brother!”

I frowned.

“Said not coming.”

“Loosen the expression? To guests. And Yoon-jeong said let’s come? Wants to see you.”

“Hey, when did I···! Reserved theme 4!”

Yu Han-na who was looking at me and Sister’s party with a surprised face raised the corners of her mouth.

“Yes, I’ll confirm the name.”

I recited the guidance and matters to be careful before theme room entry in a dry voice.

“First please put all belongings in this cabinet. And···.”

“But Bong-sik, is this very scary?”

Lee Yoon-jeong asked.

I passed the question to Yu Han-na.

“Is this very scary?”

“···Yes, the scariest theme in our store.”

“Said so. Even if giving up midway saying scary no refund.”

“Understood. Thank you.”

“Hey, bathroom a bit before entering.”

“Yeah.”

Sister and Sister’s friends entered the bathroom in a rush.

Yu Han-na pulled my clothes.

“Who are they, senior? Close unnies?”

“Sister and Sister’s friends.”

“Wow, all pretty. Who is the sister? By any chance the one wearing a dress?”

“Yeah. That ugliest person.”

Ding ring.

“Yes, counter. ···Yes? Yes. Senior, will you go to room 6 briefly? The manager said help a bit.”

“Yeah.”

When came last time entered the close 1 so didn’t know well, going to 6 at the innermost the store being considerably wide was felt.

Since one theme has another 4, 5 rooms···.

[Natural Enemy Relationship Activated]

Huh?

Kyaaak!

Between the chilly BGM the guests’ piercing screams were heard. And bright red [Mouse] moving distractedly here and there.

Aigo, sorry.

There are many bars around and basement 1st floor, seems like there are some mice.

Only apologizing in my heart headed to theme room 6. A little earlier guests came out so the manager alone organizing, but the door was closed.

Kyaak! Kyak!

Inside the manager’s scream was heard, so hastily opened the door.

Two bright red [Mouse] whooshed past beside me and ran the corridor.

Soon the manager also came out with a crying face.

“Saw the mice, Bong-sik?!”

“Yes, there···.”

Bang!

At that time guests jumped out from theme room 5.

“No, shit! What mice here like this···! Hwaak!”

Bright red [Mouse] 3 came out first more than the startled guests inside.

The opposite direction where I am, the side where the hall is.

“Kyaak!”

Yu Han-na’s scream was heard.

Following also the screams of Sister’s friends who seemed just come out of the bathroom.

“······.”

A mess.

When came last time quiet, completely didn’t expect this kind of matter would arise.

“What’s this···.”

Even the manager who was organizing the horror theme room full of terrifying props alone, whether mice considerably scary sobbed.

“Until now never this kind of thing once···.”

“I’ll somehow chase.”

I quickly moved toward the hall.

The bright red [Mouse] became even more confused, then entered the bathroom whose door was open at least.

Squeak, squeak!

I also followed and entered and closed the bathroom door. Fortunately no person inside.

“These mouse bastards.”

Holding the cleaning bucket, herded the [Mouse] to the corner.

At that moment.

Squeak!

···Collapse.

Caused a seizure as a group, then the [Mouse] powerlessly fainted.

“······.”

Knew well that [Mouse] are afraid of me, but to the point of fainting.

Hmm.

I absolutely must not go to places selling hamsters.

Also have to avoid places with rodents at the zoo.
