Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9)
“Since this is a horror story, all kinds of strange things happen, but Boss, that anomalous phenomenon you found…… it really wasn’t a person, right?”
“Couldn’t it have been the ‘white dog’?”
“It was a white shadow about this tall. august It was a little too tall to be a shoe. adopt That’s why I thought it was an anomalous phenomenon.”
At Myeong Haebin’s questioning, I searched through my memories and held one hand at about the height of my thigh.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Myeong Haebin nodded, saying that was probably what it had been.
“Yes. audit It’s pretty famous in our company. beacon Sometimes, while we’re working, a white dog appears, and they say that if you trust it, you end up paying the price.”
“White dog?”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Was that so?
We had believed it was an anomalous phenomenon and marked it as one, causing the water-level gauge to rise.
Still, what she said fit what had happened quite well.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“When this fills up completely…… you said we don’t know what happens, right?”
The park in front of us didn’t seem to have changed any further.
“If we knew, we would’ve gotten out of here already!”
“We’ll have to be even more careful from now on.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Then something else must have changed. beacon Like when it reached ‘High.’ Most likely, it’s the anomalous phenomena.”
The overgrown vegetation and thick fog were still there.
It was only a guess.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Uh, um…… I’m not the only one thinking this, right?”
We passed through the exercise area, and as we approached the pond, Myeong Haebin spoke.
Though, generally speaking, guesses were made to be wrong.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“You scared me. meadow What is it?”
Myeong Haebin’s sudden voice made Park Hyeonho, who was completely on edge, flinch.
“Not a single anomalous phenomenon has appeared! timber Ugh, I’ve got a bad feeling about this. auction What’s going on?”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
[Responsible Environmental Guardians Campaign]
(By the time you regret the trash you threw away yesterday, it’ll already be too late)
(Let’s keep our park clean)
The anomalous phenomena that had constantly tripped us up and harassed us had completely disappeared.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
As though everything had gone back to the beginning.
Even the temporary booth that had previously been wrecked had returned to normal.
And then……
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
The perfectly still pond gleamed as it reflected the intense moonlight.
“Wow.”
Not a single piece of trash remained around it. arcade Even the thick fog had vanished, leaving the view so clear that it almost felt as though our eyesight had suddenly improved.
A small sound of admiration escaped Park Hyeonho’s lips as he pushed aside a leafy branch.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
The water was so crystal clear that we could see the bottom perfectly.
“……Yeah. audit It was shallower than I thought.”
“The water is incredibly clean.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It looked like a perfectly clean, exceptionally well-maintained pond.
“Then maybe this water is safe to drink……”
There were no trash fish. ability There wasn’t even a single fallen leaf or branch.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“O-of course…… right?”
I grabbed Park Hyeonho before that dangerous hope could lead him to do something stupid.
“Of course not.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“I agree with Boss. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com wizard Come on, come on. advance Don’t look so disappointed and let’s go.”
“It’s better not to do anything dangerous unless we have to.”
Park Hyeonho moistened his dry, cracked lips before awkwardly backing away from the pond.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Now that we had nearly completed another lap, the anomalous phenomena of Chodam Park seemed to have completely vanished.
Park Hyeonho kept looking back, apparently unable to completely give up on the idea, but we dragged him along with us as we crossed the stepping stones over the pond.
“The shop is still closed, and really, not a single anomalous phenomenon appeared?”
“Yes! aspect I checked several times.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It was the first time.

Aside from the vegetation and the fog, the place seemed even cleaner and safer than when we had first entered.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
‘Can we get out?’
The first time there hadn’t been a single anomalous phenomenon in this park.
During the first lap, there hadn’t been any fork in the path, and from the second lap onward, the temporary booth had never stopped causing us trouble.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Could we finally leave through the West Gate?
The exit is located at the West Gate.
Although we hadn’t actually solved anything, the mere possibility of no longer wandering through the damned fog of that park was enough to raise my hopes.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Myeong Haebin, who had to be just as exhausted as I was, jumped for joy.
“Finally! atlas Really?!”
“Haebin, this time we’re going through the West Gate.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“What happens if we leave through the West Gate?”
Slowly, as though a camera were adjusting its focus, something behind Park Hyeonho began to come into view.
[East Gate of Chodam Park]
“We can go home……”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“What’s wrong?”
Those six syllables I had seen over and over again until I was sick of them.
Letters carved into the uneven surface of a rock and traced over with paint.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I shoved him aside and approached the rock, running my fingertips over it.
It was the same stone marker.
No matter how many times I looked at it again.
Park Hyeonho followed my rigid gaze, turned around, and his words stopped.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
When had we come back?
No.
Something inside me collapsed. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
“No. agent No, this can’t be.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
How far had we walked since passing the shop?
We hadn’t even seen the fork.
“Did we walk past it without noticing because of the fog? zenith No, maybe it was before the shop.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I didn’t know whether they were hallucinations caused by exhaustion and dehydration, or whether I had simply gone insane.
“We went the wrong way and came back to the beginning. meadow Haebin, it was my fault. acoustic I made a mistake.”
“Boss, no. acquire Boss, look at me.”
I felt like I was losing my mind.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I’m telling you, it was the worst.
The worst.
I could only think of one thing.
This situation was the worst.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Myeong Haebin grabbed both my shoulders tightly and forced me to turn around.
“Boss! portal Look at me!”
I wanted to scream.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“It wasn’t your fault, Boss. alpha None of us saw the fork.”
I couldn’t catch my breath.
“……Huh?”
On my knees, looking up at Myeong Haebin, I panted as though I had just sprinted at full speed.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Yeah. amateur To be honest, I didn’t even have h-hopes.”
Apparently, I had momentarily panicked.
“It must be another trick of this park. adopt You said it yourself, Boss. adopt Something else must have changed.”

Park Hyeonho took a candy from the bag hanging from his wrist and, instead, put it directly into my mouth.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I took my hand off the rock engraved with the park’s name and bit down on the soft candy with my molars.
It wasn’t that stale sweetness steeped in exhaustion that had lingered in my mouth for so long.
‘Can we really not get out unless we use the method the shop owner told us about?’
The sweet flavor, mixed with the aroma of butter and coffee, cleared my dulled mind a little.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
But what if that step forward led us straight to the edge of a cliff?
“Yes! aluminum For starters, the anomalous phenomena are gone now, right? arctic Let’s think of it as us having taken at least one step forward!”
“Thanks. acquire Let’s get moving again.”
We returned.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Walking endlessly.
And returned again.
Our clothes clinging completely to our bodies from sweat and humidity.
Our lips cracking more and more.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Plop.
In that peaceful, pleasant park, where all the anomalous phenomena had disappeared, we were drying out until we died.
And the only oasis a human being on the verge of extreme dehydration could find in that park was……
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“……but……”
On the stepping stones of the pond, now covered in ankle-deep water, Park Hyeonho collapsed.
“Hyeonho.”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I couldn’t hear him clearly, so I had to lean closer. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
“There’s water everywhere. anxiety It makes no sense that we can’t drink even a single sip.”
He was muttering something.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“It’s dangerous.”
“Use me as a guinea pig. aluminum Maybe nothing will happen this time. silence Look at this. apple It’s completely clean.”
My voice was hoarse, as though even my vocal cords had dried out.
Park Hyeonho looked at me with unfocused eyes.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It looked painfully refreshing.
Every time he moved it, small ripples spread across the surface.
Park Hyeonho’s hand sank into the pond.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
A temptation that posed no risk to me.
My head lowered for a moment before I raised it again.
It was a temptation.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Thank you. acid Really. galaxy I sincerely appreciate it.”
Without caring that his black hair floated and swayed like seaweed, his Adam’s apple bobbed up and down again and again as he swallowed the water.
As though he could no longer endure it, Park Hyeonho plunged his head into the water.
Bzzz―.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
The rules section had been updated.

The vibration of the phone in my pocket almost seemed like a hallucination.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It was obvious.
‘…….’
No change occurs without a cause.
The fourth rule.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Then what did I have to do to keep moving forward?
The duck came onto land because the pond had changed.
What change had to occur?
The shop closed because we had bought its products.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I had already heard it.

I already knew the answer.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Are you trash?”
The instant Myeong Haebin asked that……
Throw trash into the perfect pond.
“What?”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Beneath the surface came the sound of bones, flesh, and everything inside being crushed, while the pond, crystal clear until then, turned red with blood.
Crack.
Park Hyeonho’s body, his head still submerged in the water, began to thrash.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“B-Boss. silence What is that?”
The long green silhouette that had bitten Park Hyeonho’s head was obscured by splashes, blood, and ripples, making it impossible to see clearly.
His half-submerged lips bubbled as he tried to say something, but something beneath the water dragged his entire body away.
“Ugh, hel……! portal Puh!”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Along with an enormous explosion of water, the monster’s jaws burst above the surface, bit down on Park Hyeonho’s limbs, and began shaking him violently.
“Puh, help me……! august Aaaagh!”
In an instant, Park Hyeonho’s body was dragged to the center of the pond and hurled upward. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
Splash―!
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It looked like a gigantic axolotl soaked in radiation.
Its four legs, made of fishing lines, plastic bottles, and bags tangled together, were all different sizes and lengths.
Splash.
Its teeth were even worse they looked like thick aluminum cans brutally cut apart and embedded in several rows.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
But my body had already thrown itself into the water.
The monster caught Park Hyeonho and violently dragged him back beneath the pond.
Every alarm in my mind went off.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Hyeonho! auction Park Hyeonho!”
The pond was deeper than it looked, and the water came up to my shoulders.
Blub, glub……
Without hesitating, I pushed through the water toward the place where he and the monster had disappeared.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
But everything fell silent.
I expected to find a horrific scene, pieces of flesh and fragments of bone floating everywhere.
Instead of an answer, the bubbles rising to the surface abruptly stopped.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
As though neither Park Hyeonho nor the monster had ever existed.
No matter how much I shouted.
“Hyeonho! arrow Can you hear me?!”
Even when I desperately splashed my way to the place where his last bubbles had appeared, I couldn’t find him.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
But both my hands were already scooping up as much pond water as they could hold.
I stared at the absurdly crystal-clear surface.
“Boss, no!”
Myeong Haebin must have realized what I was about to do.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I had done the same thing as Park Hyeonho.
The water, so cold that it made my head ache, ran down my throat.
Gulp.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Why?! action Why the hell?!”
But the pond remained completely still.
I had drunk its water.
I had entered the pond.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Puh, Boss, get out. sphere Come over here.”
I slammed my fist against the surface, and all I accomplished was sending up a huge splash of water.
In the end, Myeong Haebin had to enter the pond as well, grab me by the arm, and practically drag me back onto dry land by force.

Even then, the monster didn’t appear again.
My body was so exhausted that I couldn’t even stay on my feet.
“Cough, cough……”
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
No fishing: instead of a worm, a human face was hooked onto the fishing hook.
There was a warning sign in front of me.
I practically had to crawl on all fours across the ground.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Because it meant something resembling a fish lived in the water.
Why was fishing prohibited?
No littering: a figure appeared to be scattering trash.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Because it was food for the fish living there.
The thoughts that had been circling around without fitting together finally fell into place.
Why did the no-littering symbol specifically show trash being scattered?
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“That monster ate all the trash in the pond.”
“Haha.”
A dry laugh escaped me like an uncontrollable cough.
Had I really failed to notice anything?
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“I did something stupid……”
That was impossible.
I knew.
I knew the ‘trash’ the shop owner had spoken of was a person.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
Only afterward did I try to justify my passivity by doing something that stupid.
I knew something lived inside that pond.
And even so, out of pure selfishness, I waited until Park Hyeonho touched the pond.
I knew Park Hyeonho could be that trash.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
“Are you okay?”
I didn’t want to let Park Hyeonho die.
“I said myself that I wouldn’t be human if I abandoned him after promising we’d go eat together. matrix I knew. atom I knew, you fucking idiot……”
That was why I had kept going around and around that loop, pretending not to know anything while desperately searching for another way out.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It was abandonment too.
That’s what they call conflicting feelings.
It was also a way of pushing him into doing it.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
I was the worst trash of all. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
I wanted to vomit up all the water I had just drunk.
Waiting until Park Hyeonho could no longer endure his thirst and entered the pond of his own free will.
Guilt churned my stomach as though it were turning it inside out.
Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 30: West Gate of Chodam Park (9) by Indra Translations.
It hurt as though someone had grabbed my heart and was squeezing it tightly.
My vision began to darken.
I couldn’t breathe properly.
