The Nature of Possession

10 – EP2. If the team leader is obsessed, he works a lot of overtime-1

***

The company started moving at the usual time.

Around 10:00 am, people started going to work one by one, and their clothes were free, reflecting the relaxed atmosphere of the company.

Perhaps because of the approaching summer energy, the steps of people going to work were light and their clothes were light.

Company landscape as usual. However, the employees gathered in twos and threes started talking about the big issue that arose in the morning.

‘Mr. Inho is strange.’

It was a story that Kang In-ho, who is the clean-worker of the department and does all the dirty work, is strange.

Kang In-ho, who was always smiling, was staring at the ceiling with his back bent as far as he could, with a disheveled appearance, perhaps exhausted from long overtime work.

“I’ve been working a lot lately.”

Someone said while drinking freshly brewed coffee at a cafe near the company.

“That’s right. Mina-nim made In-ho work overtime in order to post a proposal.”

“Ugh, I don’t know why you’re doing that. To be honest, it’s something In-ho doesn’t have to do, right?”

“Did In-ho get caught by Mina-sama…”

“Huh? I thought it was because Mina was interested in Inho.”

“I thought so too at first. It’s not that I’m interested in it, it’s bullying. If it were me, I’d have already resigned.”

“Looks like you have dark circles under Inho’s eyes. It’s salty. It’s salty. Tsk tsk.”

He could hear whispers about him here and there, but Inho was motionless, like a robot toy whose batteries had run out.

He was just counting the patterns on the ceiling with his eyes wide open.

No, to be precise, I was looking at a message floating in the air.

[Information on dimension shift-2]

[Possession of an unconscious target who has died or cannot be revived in that dimension.]

[Dimension shift count: 3]

‘The original owner of the body was dead. It’s a very sad life to die while working overtime.’

Was it because they were from the same company? He felt sorry for the original owner.

‘The number of dimensions shifted three times. The dimension stabbed with a knife. The dimension at which the drug was injected. And now here.’

Organizing his thoughts, In-ho got up, and people’s attention was drawn to him when he moved after being motionless for an hour.

He took a towel from the drawer and went to the bathroom.

***

Men’s room. Inho splashed water and washed his face roughly.

I cleaned my teeth with toothpaste on my toothbrush, and for some reason, I shaved my overgrown beard with the razor that was in my seat.

After tidying up, Inho looked in the mirror.

‘Is it the last conscience to possess a handsome face? pigeon year.”

This time, In-ho smiled bitterly as he looked at the man with a rather decent face.

He seriously thought about whether it was wrong to bring him back to the dimension where he originally lived in order to be treated like this.

‘Today is Friday. I don’t know anything about company work. Let’s buy time by leaving early because I’m sick.’

After the dimension shift, Inho despaired, but that didn’t mean he let go.

It was because he had to adapt to this place again after he had moved to another dimension.

Getting personal information was easier than in the previous dimension.

First of all, it was because the cell phone was opened by fingerprint recognition, and personal information could be viewed on the company intranet that was logged in.

Wiping his face with a towel, he returned to his seat.

Normally, colleagues would come up to him and say hello, but was it because of his hard face? There was no one approaching.

“I… I’m going to leave early today.”

Inho turned off the computer and asked the clerk next to him.

An employee tilted her head at the seat with the name tag ‘Yuna Kim’.

“You should tell Mina… but Mr. Inho, there is a scrum this morning. You will have to attend that. Are you feeling very unwell?”

“That… When does Scrum start? How long does it take?”

“Yes? Ah… I do it at the usual time. 11:00. It takes about 30 minutes. Mr. Inho, your complexion doesn’t look very good today.”

“thank you for telling me.”

The time now is 10:45.

The early leave report should be sent to ‘Mina’. Looking at the organization chart, the team leader. Probably the team leader where I belong.

Thinking it was an ambiguous timing to fall in, he decided to attend the morning scrum.

At 10:55, I saw the staff around me getting up, and In-ho also got up and followed them.

‘I don’t know what kind of company it is, but it’s a female company.’

He thought as he saw that everyone except himself was a woman.

Upon entering the conference room, they sat down and waited for someone.

“You’re a little late today.”

one employee said.

“Looks like the leaders’ meeting is taking a long time. Oh, there you are.”

An employee near the door looked through the glass door and said.

Soon the door opened, and a slender woman entered.

As a typical office lady, her short black hair left an impression.

Inho met her eyes. And I realized

‘This dimension… is that woman.’
