Got Dropped into a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

Chapter 115

Let’s pause for a moment.@@@@

Here, we take a brief detour into Baek Saheon’s turbulent history of encountering his psychopathic roommate.

The same psycho who mocked him for losing his left eye.

The dopamine junkie who led others into dangerous darkness, using people as bait.

The lunatic pretending to be a serial killer, chopping away with an axe.

"And now he’s a cult leader too??"

At this point, Baek Saheon felt that the absurdity of it all was almost beyond comprehension. But strangely enough, if it all turned out to be Kim Soleum’s doing, it somehow made sense—a creeping sense of anomie was beginning to take hold.

Fine. Let’s say all of that is forgivable.

But how on earth did he run into that bastard here of all places?!

“I even took vacation leave for this!”

He hadn’t just left his company housing—he had fled Seoul altogether! Yet, here he was. Baek Saheon shook his head violently, half-hoping this was just a nightmare, but no. It was painfully real.

Kim Soleum stood in the middle of Car 3, flanked by two elite team seniors and leading a group of dozens. His arms were raised, spewing cultish nonsense as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

“There’s no need to worry. We’ll all get through this test safely.”

His tone was calm, unhurried, as if he were offering advice to a friend over coffee.

“But in such a terrifying and dreadful situation, I thought it was worth taking a chance to share this. ...If someone knows the answer, it’s only right to share it, don’t you think?”

Kim Soleum’s expression grew serious as he made eye contact with those around him.

“I just ask that you put aside your initial resistance for a moment. We’re not fools. There’s a reason why dozens of us have come together to tell you the same thing.”

Baek Saheon glanced around the car.

The passengers, teetering on the brink of madness after repeatedly dying and restarting on this cursed train.

The desperate souls clinging to the hope that there might actually be a way to escape this nightmare.

And Kim Soleum, offering them the very words they wanted to hear, with absolute conviction.

“This is a test. And there is a way to pass it.”

A voice broke the silence.

“So... are you saying you know how to get out of here?”

“Yes,” Kim Soleum replied.
