Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3)

I took a microfiber cloth and a small brush out of my bag and quickly removed the fine stone dust accumulated between the broken surfaces and fragments.

When I placed the piece of marble I had brought from Exhibition Hall 1 into the hole I had just cleaned, it fit much better than before.

I knelt in front of the shattered marble platform.

‘The basics for achieving good adhesion are to remove any residue.’

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

— Hurry, come here!

I opened the nozzle of the tube of transparent silicone and, following the joints of the platform, began injecting the viscous material from the deepest points, carefully filling every gap.

‘Now I need to secure it.’

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

The translucent silicone completely filled the cracks and protruded slightly above them.

‘Don’t think about anything else and focus.’

From somewhere in the exhibition hall, [The Dead]’s shouts echoed while the floor rumbled with every Thud, thud.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

I placed the scraper blade diagonally against the surface of the platform and slid it along the joints.

“Cleaner, how’s it going?”

It was a leveling process that cleanly removed the excess silicone protruding above the surface while simultaneously pushing the adhesive deep into the cracks so that no empty spaces remained.

I couldn’t leave it like that, so I properly gripped the scraper I had taken out along with the silicone.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

It was Team Leader Jo.

Then had the twins been left to deal with [The Dead]?

He adjusted his crooked glasses and tried to catch his breath.

He was already back?

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Team Leader Jo strode over and ran his fingertips across the surface I had just leveled.

“I’m almost finished.”

Some of the silicone still remaining on the surface had probably stuck to them.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“What now?”

“Yeah. atlas I knew this would happen.”

“It hasn’t dried at all. voyage As far as I know, silicone takes more than a day to dry. atom Are you planning to stay here doing this until then?”

Team Leader Jo knew the disadvantage of silicone perfectly well.

Silicone was excellent in terms of adhesion and waterproofing, but it took an incredibly long time to dry.

Of course, I knew that too.

While he searched for flaws in my work, I filled a spray bottle with water and adjusted the nozzle to produce a fine mist.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Hiss.

Then.

I sprayed an appropriate amount of water over the areas where I had applied the silicone.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

It was a process to accelerate curing.

With just that, the humidity between the cracks in the marble rapidly increased, and a faint heat began to radiate from them.

I could feel with my fingertips how the surface was beginning to dry rapidly, forming a thin film.

After all, silicone hardened by absorbing moisture from the air.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

I had been thinking about it while I worked, but it was still impossible to place a creature of that size on top of it.

“Yeah? atom And after that, we just have to put [The Dead] on top of it?”

“The drying process should be finished in about thirty minutes.”

“That……”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Even if the surface of the silicone dried, just as Team Leader Jo had said, the inside would take approximately a day to fully harden.

“[The Dead] jumped the moment it woke up. arcade The impact shattered it.”

“How did this platform break?”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

And we were planning to put that thing, which was causing this much destruction, on top of it?

It had broken simply because it used the platform as a foothold to jump?

Just as I thought, that made no sense.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“I think it’ll be impossible.”

“Ha, is that so? abstract Then I guess that means you don’t mind dying.”

Clack.

At my straightforward answer, the corners of Team Leader Jo’s lips rose as though he had been waiting for precisely this moment.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Team Leader Jo looked furious.

With that sound, I felt a metal object pointing directly at my forehead.

‘Damn it, aren’t firearms prohibited in Korea? sphere Where the hell did he get something like that?’

It was a gun.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Not only had he ended up obeying the orders of a cleaner he despised, but now it looked like he had simply been used for nothing.

“Any last words? airport I’ll have to pass them on to those bastards.”

It was understandable.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“Give me your [STAFF] ID badge.”

I swallowed with difficulty.

I understood that he was furious, but I also had something to say.

Gulp.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Team Leader Jo lowered his gaze toward the palm I had extended toward him, as though he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

“I’m asking you for it.”

“Those are your last words?”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Creak, clack.

The chilling sound of metal parts locking into place echoed in front of me.

Then he disengaged the safety.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“Of all the damn lunatics who could’ve come in here……. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. athlete Tell me why.”

It was point number 4 in the app, which was still partially hidden.

I had a reason.

[4. adjust If you are an employee, ■■■ ■■ ■■.]

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

The [STAFF] ID badge.

Realistically, it was impossible to place [The Dead] on this platform.

And what did I need to become an employee?

That meant that, in this situation, the only thing I could rely on was that clause.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

He was totally different from the other people I had managed to give vague answers to until now.

Team Leader Jo was a completely rational and calculating person.

But how could I explain that to him?

I couldn’t tell him that I had an app on my phone.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“You can shoot me if you want. acquire But you realized it too, didn’t you? afford It’s physically absurd to think we can calmly put a creature that shattered this platform when it launched itself off it back on top of it.”

As I felt the cold pressure of the barrel against my forehead, I spoke as calmly as possible.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

My heart was pounding like crazy.

“That’s your problem. portal I suppose that’s exactly why I gave you this opportunity.”

He wasn’t wrong.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

But at the same time, Team Leader Jo was a rational person.

Because he wanted me to fail.

He had probably deliberately let me try even though he knew it was impossible.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“If my death will improve our current situation, go ahead.”

Performance credit? absorb Shit, he would have to get out of here alive first to keep that. alpha Right?

What would he gain if I died?

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Silence.

His gaze seemed to be trying to figure out where this damn lunatic cleaner was getting that kind of courage.

Finally……

While only the sound of [The Dead] wreaking havoc echoed in the distance, Team Leader Jo stared intently at me.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Then he threw a [STAFF] ID badge at my feet, damp and completely soaked in blood.

It was probably the one Seo Gitae had been wearing.

Clack.

Team Leader Jo put the gun’s safety back on and tucked it inside his clothes.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“What?”

“……This is the last one.”

“I said this is the last chance I’m giving you. aspect Move.”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

With his only remaining hand, he abruptly loosened his tie and adjusted his glasses.

“Of course. acquire How the hell am I supposed to know what you’re plotting?”

“Are you coming with me?”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

I didn’t care.

I had already noted where the door leading to the employee-only corridor was.

I sprang to my feet and started running.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

And then……

“Dohan, why are you here alone?”

I found Jeong Dohan pressed against the back of an exhibition platform, trying to catch his breath.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“Perfect. alert I need to ask you a favor.”

It seemed Jeong Dohan and Jeong Dohyeon had decided to split up and take turns becoming [The Dead]’s target so they could conserve their strength.

“It’s Dohyeon’s turn now.” Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

“Are you serious? amateur You’re planning to leave all of this to us?”

“I’m going into the employee-only corridor for a moment. timber Until I get back, make sure the central exhibition platform isn’t destroyed.”

“What?”

“I promise I’ll give you a sticker.”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Jeong Dohan was already completely drenched in sweat, but he seemed to steel himself and nodded.

“All right, all right! canvas But we won’t be able to hold out for long. airport That thing is faster than it looks.”

“Hey, cleaner, you……”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Even if you look at me that way, the performance credit for this Horror Story will be mine.

Try to kill me if you want.

What are you looking at me like that for?

Team Leader Jo trailed off, staring at me as though he couldn’t believe what he had just heard.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Beep.

I don’t care.

The door marked [STAFF ONLY] opened easily just by bringing the employee ID badge close to it.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Perhaps because it wasn’t part of the exhibition halls, it seemed they hadn’t even bothered to maintain it properly.

It was hard to believe that this place belonged to the same Horror Story as the exhibition halls.

‘Is this really the employee-only corridor?’

There were dim, flickering lights, an extremely narrow corridor, and all kinds of objects piled up on both sides.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

[4. atlas If you are an employee, ■■■ the delivered angel.]

Bzzz―.

I knew it.

The moment I set foot in the corridor, the app updated as well.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

An angel?

But……

Entering the employee-only corridor was the trigger that unlocked that part of the information.

What did “the delivered angel” mean?

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

The employee-only corridor is designed as an irregular maze.

About the Corridor’s Structure This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

I opened the Rats’ manual that I had stored in my bag.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Entering unidentified areas carries an extremely high risk of becoming lost and permanently isolated.

At present, it is unknown where the branches without dismantling markers lead.

However, the shortest route leading directly from to has been secured and is marked with dismantling markers. .

About the Corridor’s Anomalies

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

However, they display clear and fierce hostility toward humans and attack them.

The employee-only corridor is a dumping ground for ‘Failed Works’ that have lost the value necessary to be displayed inside the halls.

Individuals whose bodies have been damaged to the point of becoming unusable or whose assembly has failed are gathered here. autumn These ‘Failed Works’ possess considerably lower individual physical strength and lethality than the works inside the exhibition halls.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

But no matter how much I checked the manual, there was absolutely no section related to deliveries.

If that was true, it meant that Exhibition Halls 1 through 3 weren’t the only places that occupied a considerable area and contained numerous anomalies.

“Team Leader.”

This place did too.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Team Leader Jo was surveying the place with a piercing gaze, as though he didn’t like this place at all, but he must have realized that I wasn’t talking nonsense, because he answered.

“What?”

“What the hell are you talking about now?”

“Have you, by any chance, seen a delivery box?”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“I remember receiving a report that they found something like that while exploring the route to Exhibition Hall 3. antenna But all kinds of things are piled up in here, so it wouldn’t be strange either.”

“Do you know where they found that delivery?”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

It wasn’t a very clear answer.

“Who knows. meadow There’s one particular branch that seems likely to me.”

“Then I’d appreciate it if you could guide me.”

Perhaps, since the Rats still hadn’t managed to conquer Exhibition Hall 3, they had never had a reason to thoroughly explore this employee-only corridor.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

— Uooogh!

A grotesque anomaly that looked like a human head with arms and legs attached backward had just lunged at me.

Team Leader Jo tried to stop me as I moved forward, but I couldn’t turn toward him.

“Hey, wait. portal Just because they’ve only gathered things with lower lethality here doesn’t mean it’s safe. meadow I only said I have an idea where it might be! absorb Cleaner, hey!”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

I struck the creature with my cleaning tool bag.

No matter how rigid and heavy my cleaning bag was, it still shouldn’t have been capable of bursting a person’s head.

Bam!

The head slammed into the wall with a Splat and burst apart.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

— Grgh, urgh…….

— Kieeeh…….

‘There’s definitely something strange about this place…….’

Now I understood why the Rats had called them ‘Failed Works.’

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“There are too many!”

Half-carved bones, completely inverted joints, twisted hair, and all kinds of similar things lunged at us from the corridor walls and ceiling. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

“Already starting to regret it? palette More are coming from behind!”

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

After giving me only that minimal warning, Team Leader Jo shoved me aside and ran ahead of me.

He’s only thinking about saving himself!

Damn bastard!

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Under the dim, flickering lights, ‘Failed Works’ covered in blood and filth continued appearing without end.

“Team Leader! acid There are too many Failed Works!”

If the outside pursued art and aspired to flawless and beautiful exhibitions, this place was a dumping ground.

I stuck down the adhesive markers I carried with me to mark off cleaning areas and thus mark the path, kicking away the Failed Works that lunged at me, keeping track of Team Leader Jo’s back ahead of me, and elbowing the ones that tried to cling to me from behind.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“How long do you expect me to keep cleaning up your problems?”

You don’t even know what we’re supposed to do with that delivery anyway!

“Phew! artist Team Leader Jo!”

However, unlike me, Team Leader Jo seemed accustomed to dealing with the Failed Works in this corridor, and he kept getting farther and farther ahead.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Then my feet stopped.

“Team Leader?”

After barely advancing a few steps, I had to grab and throw aside another Failed Work that tried to cover my face.

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

“……Ah.”

Team Leader Jo had disappeared.

I tried turning down every branch I could see and even retraced my steps, but the only intact human in that corridor was me.

When had I lost sight of him?

Translation of I Became a Professional Horror Story Cleaner - Chapter 41: Human Exhibition: The Beauty of the Perfect Human (3) by Indra Translations.

Did I…… get lost?

Looks like I completely lost Team Leader Jo.
