Chapter 249 - [Bonus ] Hollowed Cries (3)



Miyoo was staring at Yisub who stared back at her. She was seated on Minyoon\'s lap while the rest of the family were wondering what to do with Yisub. The boy refused to go because he had something he wanted to do.

They were all in the living room, discussing the next course of action.

"Yisub," Jina began. "What is your last wish?"

"Eli," he murmured. "Eli\'s...boyfriend."

"What about her?" she asked.

"Bad."

"Her boyfriend is bad?" Jina frowned. "What did he do?"

Yisub was a little slow to respond but otherwise coherent. His new state as a ghost was unsettling him but Jina was starting to calm him down and get him accustomed to his life. He was agitated because it was snack time but he could not eat anything directly.

"At...Lance\'s party. With another girl. I saw him."

Jina was perplexed. "Didn\'t you tell your sister?" she asked him.

"I did. She didn\'t listen."

Jina turned to the others and interpreted his wish. Junho sighed at the boy.

"But that still doesn\'t explain how he died," he pointed out. "Who killed him? The boyfriend? Or the sister?"

"The parents were home that time," Hobin replied. "If she had killed Yisub, they\'d have seen."

"Not Eli," Yisub replied. "Eli didn\'t kill."

"Who did?" Jina asked. "Who killed you?"

"Shadow," Yisub muttered. "Laptop. Shadow came. Made me cut my throat."

"He\'s saying a shadow came out of his laptop and killed him," Jina frowned. 

"Is it a ghost?" Hobin asked. "Or a demon?"

"Demon?" Magrod pondered. "Well, did he sign any contract with any demon?"

Yisub shook his head. "No sign," he stated. "I don\'t sign."

"He said that he didn\'t," Jina replied. ""That\'s weird. Then why will a demon kill him? And if a demon killed him after a contract was fulfilled, then he\'d have gone to Hell, right?"

"Yep," Magrod said. "His ass would have been swooped to Hell alright. But I don\'t think he signed a contract."

"What if someone else signed the contract?" Hobin pointed out. Everyone turned to look at him.

"All this time, we\'ve been assuming only the contract maker goes to Hell," he reasoned. "But what about the content of the contract? It is possible for the contract maker to demand to kill someone else, right? Then the demon will simply kill them and fulfill the contract. Once the time period has elapsed, the contract maker will go to Hell. That\'s possible, right?"

He turned to Magrod who nodded. "Possible," Magrod said. "Definitely possible. As I said. The contract allows everything except changing a human\'s will."

"We\'ll have to find the contract maker then," Junho said. "Once that\'s done, we\'ll be able to send off Yisub\'s spirit."

Jina felt bad for the boy who was trying to protect his sister. Who could have done this to him? The sister\'s boyfriend?

"Where is her boyfriend?" she asked him.

"Dalton," Yisub revealed. "Yeon Myungsoo."

"Yeon Myungsoo…" Jina trailed off

"Yeon Myungsoo?" Yoonmin frowned. "That guy?"

"You know him?" Hobin asked.

"I do! He was one of the pests who was trying to date Soobin when she was single. I had to chase him away from her!"

"I heard he\'s dating some girl from a public school," Soobin said. "But he keeps on flirting with other girls."

"How the hell did he make a contract?" Minyoon wondered.

"How is a contract signed?" Baekha asked curiously. "My parents had to do some kind of spell. I don\'t know the details but the shaman did it. How?"

"It\'s not so simple," Magrod replied. "There\'s an object used to create the spell. In your brother\'s case, it was the hyacinths. Using that, the spell was cast and he was summoned. It doesn\'t always have to be something close to the demon\'s human counterpart. Could be anything. Once the spell is cast, anyone can sign the contract."

"We\'ll keep an eye on Eli for now," Jina promised Yisub. "But you have to understand that if she wants that guy, there\'s nothing you can do."

Yisub looked sad at those words. He wanted to protect his sister from that bad boy but she was not going to listen to him at all. A soft hand patted his cheek.

"Yiyi, don\'t cry," Miyoo mumbled. 

"Are we babysitting another ghost?" Yoonmin asked. 

"Well, he is mildly autistic," Hobin stated. "He needs somewhere to stay and can be safe."

Hearing that Junho and the twins looked at each other. They might love money but they were not heartless enough to let an autistic person stay out in the streets even if they were a ghost.

"Ugh! My heart is too soft!" Junho growled. "He can stay."

As if sensing the old man\'s generosity, Yisub stood up and bowed in respect.

"I...I will not...give you any worries!" he said in an awkward but sincere way. "Mr. Hwang!"

"He\'s paying you respect," Jina told her grandfather. "Even bowed to you."

"Ehh...okay."

Junho was a little touched by the ghost\'s polite gesture and smiled at him. Even Magrod was impressed by the boy.

"Seems like some humans know politeness after all!" he claimed. "Boy, call me Lord Magrod."

"L-Lord Magrod."

"Stop teaching him weird stuff!" Baekha snapped at Magrod. 

"Yeah, you\'re Maggie!" Soobin snickered. 

"Maggie!" Miyoo exclaimed. 

"Huh? Who the hell are you calling Maggie? MAGROD!"

Yisub watched in confusion as the weird family began to argue for no reason but he sensed that they were all very close. Jina kept on glancing at her twin brothers, wanting to talk to them.

"Minyoon and Yoonmin," she called them. "I need to talk to you two."

The twins shrugged and followed her to the balcony. Once outside, she turned to them. Her serious expression startled them.

"I want you two to promise me one thing," she said.

"What is it, sis?" Minyoon asked. "Did we do something?"

"I got a driver\'s license now!" Yoonmin claimed. "I\'m not driving illegally anymore!"

"No, not that…"

She took a deep breath and said, "When I saw Yisub\'s...dead body today, I was scared. I know you two would never think of harming yourselves but whenever I see a young person die like that, I panic and imagine the two of you in that state. It\'s silly, I know. But the fears won\'t go away. Just promise me that you won\'t think of doing something like that!"

"Huh?"

The twins stared at her in dismay.

"I wanna die on a large bed, surrounded by at least thirty grandkids!" Minyoon exclaimed. "I have a plan of having ten kids with my future wife! And I\'ll make music all my life to earn a lot of money. I have no intention to harm myself. I\'ll make a castle for my wife where we\'ll live in peace and have babies. Lot\'s of them! All daughters!"

"What a silly dream," Yoonmin yawned. "I\'ll be earning at least ten billion a month so that I can take my wife and travel all over the world with her. I\'ll have exactly eleven kids, enough to make a Football team and make them play Football for different countries. That way, they\'ll bring me money. As for Soobin, I\'ll make a hospital for her so that she can treat patients there. If I see any of her admirers, I\'ll make sure they pay double the charge! My future is too packed. No time to think of killing myself."

They tried to lighten up the mood but in reality, they were reassuring their sister that they would not do anything which would hurt their loved ones. Especially not their sister.

Jina burst into tears and pulled them both into a large hug.

"Ow!" the twins yelled when their heads bumped together in the hug but Jina\'s sobs made them sigh.

"Sis, you can be a crybaby at times," Yoonmin said.

"Yeah, it ruins my tough image!" Minyoon complained. "We\'re Hwang\'s. We don\'t cry!"

"We make others cry."

"Shut it!" Jina laughed in between her tears. "I just want to hug my baby brothers."

"We\'re not babies!" They protested but hugged their sister. 

"Make sure to call mom and dad today!" She ordered them. "And tell them that you guys love them!"

"Who wants to love that money loving geezer?" Minyoon joked. "He only complains that we don\'t make as much money as him!"

"And he keeps on bugging me for financial reports to make sure that I can take care of Soobin when we get married after ten years," Yoonmin scowled. "Annoying!"

Jina laughed and hugged them tighter.

"I love you guys so much," she sniffed. 

"I love myself too," Minyoon nodded.

"I love my profit reports more," Yoonmin said. 

Their attempts at jokes earned them a well deserved boxing of ears by their sister.

"Ow ow ow ow!" the twins yelled. "We love you too! We swear!"
