“You don’t need to doubt it,” <Unemployed College Graduate> said, “it’s definitely an evil spirit!”

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his face pale, “Because this morning, I met a fortune teller who told me that I was being haunted by evil spirits and would suffer a bloody disaster.

“They said that the evil spirit was a hanged ghost who wants me to be his substitute so he can be reincarnated in the Underworld.

“I can’t stand this place for even a second longer. I’m going back to the city soon.”

However, thinking of the protagonists in various movies and TV dramas who were haunted by ghosts, he shuddered and looked as if he had lost his parents. “That’s right, since I’m haunted, I probably won’t escape even if I go back to the city. He will definitely take my life! That’s how it’s portrayed in those movies.

“Host, please help me! Should I leave or stay?”

“Let me calculate it for you.”

An Rugu frowned slightly, calculated with her fingers, and after a long while, opened her eyes, a look of realization flashing across them. “…Have you packed your luggage?”

“Yeah.”

This person she was destined to meet immediately nodded, walked to the side, picked up the blue suitcase, and said somewhat dejectedly, “Sigh, it seems that I can’t complete the task that Grandpa asked me to do.”

After thinking for a moment, An Rugu said, “How about this, you leave the orchard first.”

Upon hearing An Rugu’s instructions, this destined person seemed to have found strength and immediately complied, “Okay, I’ll go now.”

He gathered his belongings and, dragging his suitcase, hurried towards the orchard gate.

Not long after, he left the orchard, walked onto the cement road, and after walking quite a distance, arrived at the bus stop at the entrance of the village.

This was the only bus stop in their village, serving as the transportation hub for all the villagers.

He stood under the bus stop sign, afraid of bumping into that ghost, and dared not hang up the phone.

Although it was unlikely that An Rugu would actually track down the ghost via the internet, being connected via video call still provided a lot of reassurance.

He waited for a long time, and as the bus got closer and closer, a look of joy appeared on his face.

He then grabbed the handle and walked towards the bus, preparing to board.

However, at that moment, An Rugu’s voice came through the phone speaker. “Don’t get in the bus, go back the way you came.”

The destined person: “???”

Viewers in the live stream: “???”

Why go back when running away was clearly the best option?

<Unemployed College Graduate> was utterly bewildered. “… Go back to let the ghost attack me?”

A hypothesis quickly formed in his mind. “The rule of horror movies is that many ghosts will suddenly appear after they find that the protagonist is trying to escape, so you want me to use reverse psychology and go back to observe the situation?”

An Rugu: “…”

“You’ll understand when you get back. Some things you have to see with your own eyes before you’ll believe them.”

<Unemployed College Graduate> was completely baffled, so he had no choice but to carry his belongings and return the way he came.

Just as he reached the orchard gate, a rustling sound reached his ears.

‘Swish, swish, swish.’

‘Plok, plok, plok’.

He looked up and saw the largest jujube tree in the distance trembling incessantly, like an epileptic patient.

After being battered by a fierce storm, the jujube tree seemed unable to withstand the force, and countless large jujubes fell to the ground.

“Hmm?” <Unemployed College Graduate> raised his right hand. It was very cold, but there was no wind.

Why was that jujube tree shaking so violently?

Suddenly, something came to his mind. His grandfather had warned him that there were thieves in the orchard who often stole jujubes, so he had to keep a close eye on it.

The jujube thief was here!

He gritted his teeth, ran quickly through the gate, threw his suitcase aside, and ran towards the jujube tree in the distance.

As soon as he ran to the side, he heard two men talking. “Hey, when the two of us made our moves, our swords combined, that bastard was immediately scared away.”

“His grandson is so easy to fool.”

<Unemployed College Graduate>: “?”

One of the voices sounded very familiar, as if he has heard it somewhere before.

He walked around a lush jujube tree, looked back, and his pupils shrank inch by inch, unable to believe what he was seeing.

A fortune teller in a robe was standing under a jujube tree, dragging a burlap bag, bending down and picking up jujubes from the ground.

Although there was no one on the jujube tree, it seemed as if someone was stepping on the trunk and jumping around. With each jump, the tree shook.

Countless round, crisp, and sweet jujubes rolled down and fell into the dust, where the middle-aged man picked them up and put them into his white, burlap bag.

<Unemployed College> Graduate: “??????”

Viewers in the live stream: “???”

[I suspect this is the fortune teller that the destined person encountered before.]

[Remove the word ‘suspect’, it’s definitely true. He just said that the destined person is particularly easy to fool. I suspect he wants to get rid of him so he can easily steal the jujube.]

[A clever tactic to lure the tiger away from the mountain! Brilliant!]

……..

Hearing footsteps, the fortune teller looked towards the destined person and involuntarily tightened his grip on the edge of the burlap bag, a hint of surprise on his face: “…You— how did you get back?”

<Unemployed College Graduate> finally realized he’d been scammed and stomped his foot in anger. “Damn it! You told me there was a ghost that wanted me to be his substitute, but it turns out you just wanted to trick me into going  away so you could steal my jujubes! I’ve never seen such a scammer!”

He couldn’t stand being cheated like that, so he rubbed his hands together and walked towards the fortune teller, clearly ready to teach him a lesson.

The fortune teller, who was much thinner than him, took two steps back and chuckled nervously, “A gentleman uses words, not fists. Let’s talk this out.”

“Isn’t that just giving you the opportunity to continue lying to me?”

The destined person continued walking towards the fortune teller, looking on with predatory eyes.

However, at this moment, the ghost in the jujube tree grabbed a handful of jujubes and threw them at the head of the destined person, as if the jujube on the tree was raining down.

The person who was hit on the head by the object felt extremely humiliated, even though it didn’t hurt. They couldn’t help but exclaim, “Who the hell hit me from above?”

He remembered that there was no one there. Could he be hiding in a blind spot?

Upon closer inspection, however, there was still no one there.
