Chapter 291 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 2

Chapter 291

In Sekwang Metropolitan City, Kim Soleum (the protagonist) explains the nature of 'Director Ho's Project' and the reality of cognitive erasure to Agent Haegeum. Haegeum decides not to report the existence of the Metropolitan City to her superiors to prevent further cognitive erasure risks, but offers herself as a contact for when Kim Soleum explores the city. She treats Agent Choi and Agent Bronze with maternal sternness before addressing Kim Soleum's humanity, concluding that having reason, communication, and compassion makes him human. She notes that Kim Soleum's missing hand is being sustained by Dokkaebi flame. After Haegeum leaves, Section Chief Lee Jaheon arrives at the Fox Counseling Room to deliver a 'reward'—an item from the 'Cosmic shopping mall' intended to help Kim Soleum regain a human body. The item is a 'Sunshine Edit Shop's Succession Egg Mood Lamp.' The manual reveals it is a mystical product that grows a life form inside an egg-shaped lamp using blood and hair from a specific life form. Kim Soleum visits Kwak Jekang at the Daydream research office to obtain samples of his former human self's blood and hair from Team D's records. Despite Kwak Jekang's scientific obsession, he provides the samples. Kim Soleum, accompanied by Lee Jaheon and an observing Kwak Jekang, performs the ritual in darkness. He uses the blood and hair of 'Kim Soleum' to feed the lamp. The lamp's light reveals a rapidly growing silhouette of nerves and organs. Upon completion, the lamp spits out a life-sized human body that matches Kim Soleum's former height. However, while the body is Kim Soleum's, it possesses the head of a reptilian alien rather than a human face, leaving the transformation seemingly flawed.
