Chapter 225 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 2

Chapter 225

Kim Soleum (Roe Deer) regains his ability to think after using a bell provided by Agent Haegeum. He discovers a strange emotional detachment, realizing his fear response is significantly dulled, which he speculates might be a side effect of his new body or the bell's properties. By shaking the bell, he determines that his sanity and clear thought require a stimulus roughly every four hours. He secures the bell between his horns for easy, discreet use. During a period of reflection, Soleum recalls his past acquaintances and realizes that Jang Heowoon may have recognized him at the theme park. He develops a chilling theory: Jang Heowoon might have used a Wish Ticket to become human, which would prevent him from using a ticket to return to the company. Soleum decides his new goals are to uncover the truth of his origin and to meet Jang Heowoon again. Kwak Jekang, a researcher, visits Soleum to discuss the results of the 'Man in the Screen' incident. Kwak explains that Daydream Inc. collects 'darkness' through external methods and internal 'excavation.' He reveals that the company's basement contains the 'Cheerful Research Institute,' a massive ghost story where office layouts repeat endlessly. Kwak suggests that Soleum's purpose is to serve as a specialized agent for deep excavation. To gain more freedom and access, Soleum decides to cooperate with the company under the guise of wanting to experiment with new control methods, specifically negotiating for a salary. A few days later, Soleum is stationed at the annex front desk in a transport cage, performing security duties. While analyzing his smoke-like body, he discovers a tattoo on himself: '恩主' (Benefactor).
