Chapter 342 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

Chapter 342

Inside the Dream Incubation Room, the sergeant moves with unexpected precision, inspecting the lab. Kim Soleum questions the sergeant about the nature of the facility. The sergeant reveals that Daydream Inc. sometimes 'discards' Darknesses—ghost stories that have been so thoroughly mapped and explored that they lose their supernatural mystery and become mere 'dangerous realities.' This process allows the company to extract 'Dream Essence' until the story is 'wringed dry.' Kim Soleum realizes this lab is likely a discarded Darkness that the company used to extract pharmaceutical technology. The sergeant identifies a card key belonging to a deceased researcher named 'Yoo Kwe' and asks if Kim Soleum knows of the 'Cheerful Research Institute.' Kim Soleum recognizes the name from previous investigations into toy-themed ghost stories. The sergeant explains that the Cheerful Research Institute is a known entity within the company and that the company's very first registered Darkness also carried that tag. The sergeant notes that while he remembers everything about the company, he has chosen to forget many of the darker memories. Kim Soleum encourages him to seek good memories in the future, to which the sergeant responds with a slight brightening of his expression. The chapter ends with the sergeant warning Kim not to spread this information to avoid a visit from the Security Team.
