Chapter 289 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 2

Chapter 289

The group of students and agents navigates through a school hallway covered in pulsing flesh and victims. Agent Bronze leads them toward the first floor, where they reach a wooden sliding door leading to a school library. Kim Soleum identifies a specific bookshelf that serves as a secret passage to the Hanbit Library, but the mechanism fails to activate because the required book is missing due to the 'In the Dark Shadow' phenomenon. Kim Soleum suggests hiding the talisman behind the bookshelf in a hidden space. Section Chief Lee Jaheon moves the shelf, revealing a metallic rectangular space. Although the agents cannot see the fire hydrant hidden within, Kim Soleum can. Kim Soleum cleans the interior of the fire hydrant and places the consecrated glass lantern inside. As the ritual begins, an ominous, tearing voice echoes, and a blue light from a torn talisman seeps in from above. Park Hongrim encourages Kim Soleum to complete the ritual. Braun, the host, provides a cryptic hint, suggesting Kim Soleum has missed something. Kim Soleum realizes that since he is wearing a Sekwang Technical High School uniform, completing the ritual will cause him to be hidden within the library as part of the school's collection. However, Lee Gyeol intervenes, identifying Kim Soleum as an outsider wearing a borrowed uniform. Lee Gyeol grabs the lantern, and the Sekwang uniform vanishes, revealing Kim Soleum's true school uniform. The fire hydrant and the ritual space become invisible to Kim Soleum. A massive burst of blue flames consumes the nightmare. When the light fades, the group finds themselves in a peaceful, sunlit hallway in May. The victims and students are all sleeping soundly on mattresses and blankets in a tranquil nap time. The agents are seen napping near the auditorium. On the auditorium door, a broken glass lantern and a torn talisman remain as remnants of the battle. The 'In the Dark Shadow' ghost story concludes with a 'Happy Ending 01' score, credited to Agent Honghwa and the Cheongryong Team.
