Possessed an Academy Security Guard

53 – 053. Rank Match (1)

I obtained a leave of absence with Chaeryeong Min’s consideration, not consideration, and as soon as I was discharged, I headed to the Green House dormitory to meet Kang Ha-neul.

As soon as he officially returned to school, Kang Ha-neul entered the dormitory. She had that happen and she can’t keep living in a studio all by herself. Originally, the dormitory application period had already passed, but the fact of the raid was taken into account, and she was able to enter the dormitory, albeit belatedly.

So I headed to the 3rd female dormitory in a corner of the Green House site.

Whether it’s a creation or a reality, when it comes to women’s dormitories, most of them are restricted to men. In fact, the Green House female dormitory also strictly prohibits men from entering, except for some business purposes.

Yes.

Except for some tasks, that is.

“This is Ahn Su-ho, a member of the Special Countermeasures Division of the Guard, whom I contacted in the morning.”

I presented my membership card to the general and security guards guarding the front of the dormitory. Because it was in front of the women’s dormitory, the security guard was also a woman.

The female security guard carefully examined my face alternately with the member’s ID card, and asked with curious eyes.

“…… You said it was because of the first-year Kang Ha-neul’s hearing, right?”

“Yes. You’re right.”

The female security guard who scanned me up and down paused for a moment, then she gestured for me to come in with a reluctant look on her face.

Once again, the women’s dormitory was a sanctuary for males. However, in the case of academy-related work like me, it was possible to enter only during the daytime when most of the students went outside.

Anyway, this is all about special books and business cards.

“Kang Ha-neul’s room is room 403. As you know without telling me, never go anywhere other than that room. In particular, there are public baths and exercise facilities in the common space on the back of the first floor-“

“I know. I just finish my business quickly and leave.”

“Please.”

After being sent off by the security guards, I headed straight to Kang Ha Neul’s room.

– Smart.

I knocked on the door, but there was no answer from inside.

I’m sure you contacted me in advance to visit at this time, but where did you go? I wanted to, but judging from the bustle coming from inside, it was clear that she was in the room.

– Smart.

“Kang Ha-neul student?”

Knock again. And calling.

However, there was no reply from Kang Ha-neul this time either. As she listened closely to the door, she could hear a vague voice…….

‘This can’t be… ….’

Feeling a strange sense of déjà vu, I gently turned the doorknob, but it was locked.

But these locks didn’t bother me in any way. The special measures and membership card serve as the master key for the facilities in the greenhouse. Unless it is a place where some security level has been established, quite a few doors can be opened with one member card.

– Beep!

As soon as I applied my membership card, the lock unlocked, and I immediately opened the door quietly.

Now then.

“Yes, everyone! Don’t forget to subscribe, like, and turn on notifications! Oh! Thank you Harvard Yellowy for your 10,000 won support! Nyaang! Nyaaang!”

Kang Ha-neul, who was wearing a cat ear headset, was pretending to be cute in front of the monitor with a dainty voice. A dizzying broadcast screen and a strangely familiar AOS game appeared on the monitor.

“Yes! I have a schedule, so I’m thinking of indulging myself in the next hour or so. Yes? Explain who the man who broke down the door last time was……. Manager. Ben that person please. As I said in the announcement, if I mention a man in my room, it’s Ben! No, what do you keep trying to explain? Now, hurry up and say it’s the last minute……. Yes? Man behind? No, don’t bring that up! Yes? Now? Who’s behind you now…….”

Kang Ha-neul turned his head and met my eyes.

“Ah.”

The next moment, Kang Ha-neul moved quickly. After quickly turning off the camera and microphone, I canceled the game matching and scrolled down the screen related to the broadcast.

The time it took for that series of actions was about 0.7 Seconds.

As I was admiring that a superman is indeed a superman, Kang Ha-neul, blushing like a green apple, shouted at me.

“Go, go, go, go, what if you suddenly come in!! You should have knocked before you came in!!”

“I knocked twice and called my name. That’s why you didn’t answer.”

“Then you could just call me at the door! Why did you come in on your own! No, it was obviously locked in the first place, but how did you open it and come in?!”

“That… ….”

As if to show off, I brought my membership card to the door. Then there was a beep and the lock activated.

“Wow crazy… ….”

Kang Ha-neul stood up from his seat with a surprised expression at the majesty of the master key.

“What is that? Academy Master Key? Is there such a thing? Oh my God, I covet it so much, can you give me one too?”

“You can get it if you graduate and join the guard.”

“Oh, that’s a bit… ….”

Kang Ha-neul sighed as if he really hated it. It was a joke from the beginning, and there was no sense of belonging to the guard, but it felt strange to see them hate it that much.

“There is no such thing as too serious, isn’t it? The guards aren’t such a bad place either.”

“How are your working hours?”

“…… 9 Am to 6 pm.”

“Overtime work?”

“Sometimes night patrol or duty… ….”

“How is your salary?”

“The special benefits and starting salary were probably around 4,000 after tax. Various expenses and incentives are separate.”

“What are welfare benefits?”

“Uh, first of all, free use of all facilities inside the academy and provision of various equipment… …. No, but why are you asking this?”

“You said it wasn’t such a bad place? I’ll listen to it and think about it if I really like it.”

Of course it was a joke. Because of her risk, there was no way she would want to join the guard no matter how good the conditions were, as well as all other superhuman-related jobs as well as hunters.

“By the way, is the broadcast okay?”

“Now, no worries. There’s no way it’ll be okay. A man suddenly broke into a female streamer’s broadcast. hahahaha, really Explain again for a while, explain, it will burn for a while…….”

“How many viewers do you want?”

“Maybe when I saw you a little while ago… …. There must have been about 300 people?”

Unexpectedly, the number was quite high. I don’t know the physiology of the internet broadcasting side, but if a streamer who started broadcasting a little over 15 days ago has 300 viewers, it would not be a small number by any means. Even after broadcasting for several years, there are many cases where the number of viewers does not exceed double digits.

“What kind of broadcast was it that viewers gathered so well?”

“?? It’s just a normal game show, right? Did you know I could do a strange broadcast?”

Isn’t it strange to pretend to be cute while making cat meows in front of the monitor? He suddenly had such a question, but he kept it aside without letting it out of his mouth.

“Well, if the content is simply a game, it would not be differentiated, but I have such a prominent differentiation factor, right?”

Kang Ha-neul spread his arms as if showing off his appearance with a lively expression. The fabric of the baggy box tee that was on top of him was pulled, and the outline of his large breasts rose unexpectedly.

“I heard that this cute-looking girl is acting friendly like a close female junior, scorning all sorts of fawning, and broadcasting their favorite game, how can you not watch it? It’s not even a face one tool, it’s good at games!! Besides, the reaction is also Hyeja!! Accept all the strange drips that other streamers hate!! I can’t stand this!!”

Her river sky smiled sinisterly as she raised her thumb. It was different from the pretentious appearance shown during the broadcast a while ago.

“Wouldn’t it be a big deal if those words were being sent out by chance?”

“I made sure it was turned off, so it’s okay! And even if it’s broadcasted, you can go out with the concept of a vicious streamer who exploits broken-headed viewers. Then, if it doesn’t work out, you can dig a new avatar!”

I got goosebumps at that confident statement.

Kang Ha-neul understood the physiology of the internet broadcasting industry very well. Her will to siphon off her money with all her power using her own avatar ability was clearly felt.

‘…… How did Kang Ha-neul, who was united with that pride, become like this?’

Although this may also be a trick of the Demon of Pleasure, it was a change whose intention could not be guessed. It’s not enough that you committed all kinds of drifts in the original work, are you thinking of doing lintel drifts now?

“But what are you here for today? You said you had something urgent, didn’t you?”

Her words reminded me of her visit today.

“Yes. Kang Ha-neul has something to say to her students.”

“Is it incident-related?”

I nodded her head at that question. Soon, the nervousness that came to her for no reason made her hands break into cold sweat. I take a deep breath and try to calm her rapidly beating heart.

I was thinking of telling Kang Ha-neul about Min Chaeryeong here today.

Who Chaeryeong Min is, what kind of person she is, how suspicious and dangerous she is, and even the fact that Chaeryeong Min is also involved in multiple ability research and is aiming for Kang Ha-neul like Na Joo-yong.

I agonized over and over whether or not to tell about that series of facts, but in the end, I decided to speak.

According to the Extra Quest message, I intend to maintain a close relationship with Kang Ha-neul from now on. In this situation where Min Chae-ryeong is targeting her, shouldn’t her river sky at least know who her own threat is?

“Has there been any progress in the investigation regarding the case?”

“Not at all yet. The whereabouts of the culprit and the background are still unknown.”

“Yes?”

Then why did you come? To Kang Ha-neul, who had such a face, I took out a small note from her arms and showed it.

“That’s-“

“Shh.”

At my gesture, the river sky shut her mouth. I held close to Kang Ha-neul so that the note was not visible from her surroundings, and then gently opened the folded note in half.

“It’s okay.”

Soon after reading the preface of her note, she swallowed her breath softly.

[ We will be wary of eavesdropping and will deliver what we want to say in writing. After reading this note, burn it with your ability. ]

Kang Ha-neul raised his eyes. Like what the hell does this mean? To her, I pointed to the following contents of her note.

[ I’m going to say it without hesitation. ]

[ My immediate superior, Team Leader Min Chaeryeong, is a person involved in multiple ability research, just like Director Na Ju-yong, and is probably targeting you for a similar reason as director Na Ju-yong. ]

[ There may be a camera or wiretapping device hidden in this dorm room. Therefore, please check the following contents by yourself in a place where there is no such monitoring equipment. Also, if the conversation is suddenly cut off, it may seem strange, so from now on, please respond appropriately according to my words. ]

“…… We haven’t made any progress in the investigation, but you shouldn’t worry about them attacking again. The security of the Green House is thorough. So you can rest assured, I came today to tell you that. In order to see each other’s faces to see if they’re doing well.”

At my words, Kang Ha-neul looked at me with tense eyes. She licked her lips with her tongue, as if her nervousness had dried her lips, and slowly folded her note and put it in her pocket.

“…… Check your regards Did you intrude during the broadcast just for that reason?”

“I didn’t expect you to be broadcasting openly from the dormitory.”

“What do you think? It’s a single room, and the soundproofing is good. It’s a national academy, so one facility is good.”

Kang Ha-neul trembled with an awkward expression. At the same time, it seemed that he was looking for a surveillance camera that might be hidden from time to time with his gaze going left and right.

“Anyway, I’m glad you’re doing well.”

“…… Actually, I’m not doing very well.”

Kang Ha-neul shrugged lightly and sat down on the chair.

“I was about to drop out, but belatedly started my academy life, so there were a lot of things that took me. I missed classes for almost two weeks, so it’s hard to keep up with my progress. In particular, the ranking match that started this week……. I didn’t learn any martial arts and brash, but they told me to fight with other students without any hesitation, and I feel like dying.”

Ranking match. At that word, I opened my eyes wide as if to recall a fact I had forgotten.

‘Has it already been that time?’

The ranking match was a main story element where various events took place in the original game as well. Even the river sky right in front of my eyes wasn’t the reason for the blackening was losing to midwinter in the ranking match.

Kang Ha-neul of the original work climbed the ranks far and wide during the ranking match and rose to the rank where he could challenge Midwinter, who was number 1 at the time, but that is the story of the original story.

The current Kang Ha-neul, whose personality and strength have changed 180 degrees from the original, will not show such a move.

‘Except for Kang Ha-neul, there doesn’t seem to be any students who have made major changes yet, so the results of the ranking match are probably going according to the original story.’

The ranking match probably started this Monday. If so, the ranking match between mid-winter and Ryu Tae-hyun in the original work would have already taken place.

‘It was one of the events I wanted to see, but I missed it because I was hospitalized.’

The 1st semester ranking match is held only for students in the same year. The first match of the freshman year ranking match was between midwinter, the provisional number 1 at the time, and Ryu Tae-hyun, the provisional number 2.

In addition to being the first game, the symbolism of the fight between 1st and 2nd place. Unsurprisingly, the couple’s sparring attracted a large number of spectators. Mid-gyeol tried to avenge her defeat in several unofficial matchups with Ryu Tae-hyeon on the spot, but she was defeated in front of numerous audiences.

In the original work, from the defeat in the official match, Midwinter’s obsession with Ryu Tae-hyeon intensifies and the relationship between the two begins to develop in earnest.

I don’t think the results have changed, but I’ll try contacting Ryu Tae-hyeon soon, just in case.

I thought so, and when I suddenly raised my head, Kang Ha-neul was deeply buried in a chair with a somewhat uneasy expression.

“What’s going on?”

“Because of the ranking match. Ranking is fine. The problem is that I have to fight elites handpicked from all over the country for an entire semester. I want to give up all of them, but I have to play at least 10 games.”

“When is your first match?”

“Today. 14:00 Today.”

14 O’clock. It was exactly two hours later.

‘What the f*ck.’

In other words, Kang Ha-neul said that she was broadcasting on the Internet even though her first match before the rankings was two hours later.

“…… Do I need to prepare anything else?”

“I have something to prepare. I have no intention of winning anyway. There would be nothing to do before the game, so I tried to relax and play the game.”

It didn’t seem like an empty word to say that I wasn’t interested in rankings at all. Well, he was the one who wanted to drop out of the academy in the first place, so there was nothing strange about it.

“Anyway. I’m thinking of starting the broadcast again, but what will Suho do now? You don’t intend to stay here, do you? Are you done with your business now?”

Kang Ha-neul said implicitly, pointing to the pocket she had put her notes in. Yes, as you said, the purpose of coming here has been achieved.

There was nothing scheduled after that. Originally, I planned to go home right away, but…….

‘I thought the ranking match was at 14:00.’

I thought it wouldn’t be bad to watch Kang Ha-neul’s ranking match as there was still time. With that thought in mind, while watching the broadcast here, let’s say that we will go to the stadium together.

“…… Yes? Are you serious?”

She said that with an expression asking what bullsh*t Kang Ha-neul was talking about.

“That, no matter how hard-nosed I am, it’s a bit much, a lot embarrassing to show Suho that I’m fawning in a broadcast tone, right? I’m here to watch the ranking match. It doesn’t matter. Please respect my privacy here and leave. As for the invasion of privacy, it’s enough that you’ve already opened the door twice and intruded during the broadcast, right?”

At those words, I licked my lips in regret. There was a desire to see how Kang Ha-neul broadcasts, but it seems that it is not possible to watch her broadcast from the side.

‘No. You can just go to the Kang Ha-neul broadcasting channel and watch it.’

I don’t know the nickname, but it should not be difficult to find because it looks so unique. There are about two hours left before the rankings, so if you search the Internet in the meantime, you will probably find it quickly.

“…… All right. Then see you in two hours.”

With those words left, I left Kang Ha-neul’s room. At the same time, I began to search the Internet broadcasting platforms of this world one by one with my smartphone.

[Noble Sky] I’m dead!!! -297 Viewers

It was exactly 20 minutes after I found Kang Ha-neul’s broadcast account.
