Chapter 401 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 3

Chapter 401

Kim Soleum prepares for a ritual to invite the Otherworld talk show host using a Silver Serpent Coin and a white cotton glove. He notices his tattoos have vanished, leading him to wonder if his connections to previous worlds will also disappear upon his return home. Exploring Director Ho Yuwon's abandoned office, he discovers a sticky note labeled 'Return Key Card' attached to a chip. He realizes the chip is actually a specialized storage device for a ring box; plugging the chip into the box's groove activates it, granting him a management key card. Later, during dinner with Baek Saheon and Jin Nasol, Baek Saheon reveals he has no intention of reporting the branch's state to headquarters to avoid interference. He mentions that worker contracts are on a 30-day cycle and could potentially be terminated within two days if they obtain system authorization, which is currently difficult due to the chaotic state of the branch management. Baek Saheon also points out a discrepancy: Jin Nasol claims to have been at the branch for two weeks, but records show she arrived six months ago, suggesting she is hiding something. Seeking a less dangerous assignment, Kim Soleum requests patrol duties. He is provided with Security Team attire, which allows him access to most areas except the Manager's office. While patrolling the staff area (Sector B-5), he is pursued by a figure dressed in the same Security Team uniform. The figure maintains the exact same distance and pace regardless of Kim Soleum's speed. After hiding in a storage room, Kim Soleum hears strange groans and looks through a small window into Storage B-9. Inside, he sees several people in orange jumpsuits—the survivors of the incident who are scheduled for disposal the following day.
