Chapter 39: Anonymous59

-Choi Yiseo: How many exams do you have left?

As the exam period was slowly coming to an end.

Voices were lively both in the Bamboo Forest and within the University, suggesting that the exams were over for the most part.

-Kim Woojin: 1.

Me, Kim Woojin.

I still needed more time before my exams were done. The lecture that was supposed to be on Thursday was postponed to Friday because the professor had some urgent matters.

Because of that, I, an engineering student, had to go to University today to take an exam.

-Choi Yiseo: Were planning to drink with our department mates tonight, do you want to come?

-Kim Woojin: ? Youre asking me?

-Choi Yiseo: Of course, who else?

Huh.

It seems like she was a bit confused since we have been hanging out together lately.

-Kim Woojin: Why would I come?

Sorry, but I am fundamentally not the type of person who enjoys socializing with others.

Recently, Ive been hanging out with people because of this and that, but now is the time to return to my usual self.

-Choi Yiseo: Arent you coming?

-Kim Woojin: I dont have any close friends there.

-Choi Yiseo: You have me.

From her tone, I could feel Choi Yiseos wish for me to come along.

Sigh, why would she bother with me when she has so many more friends.

To her, I am one of many friends, but to me, she is my only friend.

In other words, if Choi Yiseo goes out to play with someone, Ill just end up being alone.

Seo Yerin?

Shes busier than Choi Yiseo.

Shed probably be too busy being dragged here and there, having fun without even a moment to greet me.

-Kim Woojin: Have fun.

-Choi Yiseo: Youre really not coming?

-Kim Woojin: Yep.

-Choi Yiseo: Dont answer like that.

Choi Yiseo disliked the responses in slang since the last time. Anyway, since it was glossed over, she probably wouldnt pursue it.

Now that the library would be empty, I thought of changing my surroundings and going to study there for today.

Since my grades in other subjects arent that great.

One positive aspect of the exams being lengthy was that they motivated me.

After the previous exams were ruined, I felt driven to work harder on the upcoming ones, leading me to study more.

As I entered the quiet library, I passed other students who, like me, were preparing for the final exam and found themselves a spot.

The library was not just a serene place to study but also one where it felt reassuring to know others were struggling with exams too.

Hmm.

I opened the book with the intention to study but ended up placing my phone on top of it. I considered listening to music while studying, but my fingers were already heading for the Bamboo Forest.

There are still a few hours left until the exam.

-Anonymous27: Midterm Celebration Omakase. (Photo)

-Anonymous13: Where is this?

-Anonymous27: Its at Hansin Intersection. The atmosphere is great, and they do a fantastic job too.

-Anonymous13: Thanks, thanks.

-Anonymous153: Well done to those who have finished their midterms! To those who still have exams, fighting!

-Anonymous69: I want to have sex!

-Anonymous90: You are being so straightforward today! I want to have sex too!

-Anonymous11: Damn, they are back dirtying the place again, fuckers.

-Anonymous44: A ghost story from Osaka. This actually happened a few years ago.

-Anonymous11: Everyone! Hi! Today Popo is doing a 24-hour broadcast to celebrate the end of midterms! Please come and visit us!

-Anonymous300: Checking in for todays Popo broadcast with Geon-gong!

-Anonymous301: Having a company dinner with Geon-gong on the broadcast.

-Anonymous59: SFB.

-Anonymous17: Seong Food and Beverages.

-Anonymous69: Sexy?

-Anonymous268: Sinsul Holding?

-Anonymous59: So fucking bored.

-Anonymous243: This quarters new lineup, I Reincarnated and Now I am a table, In another World, I am considered a Supreme Being?!, Me, the Strongest? No way!* Turns out I am!, My Girlfriend, Younger sister, older sister, cousin, relative. The Girl next door turns out to be a battle

-Anonymous11: What the hell is that, you freaking otaku. Seriously, we need to take out the sex maniac and this guy.

The Bamboo Forest was peaceful in itself, but posts with discrimination or strong political biases were deleted.

There were also several inquiries.

-Anonymous11: Yeah, admin. Can you not kick out the sex freak and otaku, the damn streamers too? They are dirtying the Bamboo Forest.

-Anonymous303: I suggest that people like Popo, who are the pride of Gahyeon University, should have a special ranking. If they write a post, it should appear at the top of the board. The reason is.

Well, I have been ignoring these trivial inquiries that come in every day.

Hmm?

There was a suggestion at the top which I inadvertently missed reading.

-Anonymous59: Hehe.

-Anonymous59: Hehe.

-Anonymous59: Hehe.

Whats this?

Spam posts received from just one person.

Anonymous59 was someone who occasionally posted things out of boredom. They could almost be considered a personification of boredom.

There were always kids like this, but this time, the inquiry felt off.

An uneasy feeling, but the important thing was that I couldnt check when the inquiry was sent.

Ha, seriously.

Since it wasnt officially done by a professional institute or university, but rather a graduate, the Bamboo Forest had its inconveniences.

People said that was also the charm of Gahyeon Universitys Bamboo Forest, but honestly, from an administrators point of view, it was frustrating.

Lets look at the list of posts by Anonymous59.

Just as I was about to check the list.

Woong!

The phone vibrated, but this time it wasnt the Bamboo Forest, but a message.

-Yu Arin: Youre not coming today?

-Yu Arin:

Yu Arin sent this emoji of a cat glaring fiercely. It seems like shes heard from Choi Yiseo.

Did the two get closer recently?

Thinking that they might have become friends after drinking last week and sleeping over at my place, I replied.

-Kim Woojin: Yes.

-Yu Arin: Why? Its boring without you.

-Kim Woojin: Since when were we that close?

-Yu Arin: We slept together, remember?

-Kim Woojin: Dont use misleading words.

-Yu Arin: If you dont come, Ill spread the rumor to the guys that we had a foursome.

-Kim Woojin: Im not coming. The problem is for Choi Yiseo and Seo Yerin, not me. Thats a lifetime achievement.

-Yu Arin:

The conversation ended with the use of a surprised cat emoji. I wanted to check the online community again, but I only had an hour left until the exam.

Ah, shit.

I turned the phone off and focused on studying.


It wouldnt be an exaggeration to say that I aced the final exam.

At least, thats a relief.

While I felt a bit disappointed about the other exams, I was pleased with how cleanly I did with this one.

Should I order chicken and beer at home?

And what if I play games too?

Kyaah!

That is sex!

Humming on the way home, I spot this handsome man coming out of the convenience store in front of the University from afar.

Jeong Chan-woo!

When I wave at him with a smile, Jeong Chan-woo also spots me and approaches with a slight smile.

After the incident that last time, we got closer. It was awkward when Yu Arin stayed in my home, but thanks to Choi Yiseo, we were able to clear up the misunderstanding.

Woojin? You had an exam today?

Jeong Chan-woo greeted me with a smile and asked kindly. I couldnt understand why someone like him liked Yu Arin.

Yes, its the last one.

You must be exhausted.

As our paths collide, we spoke about this and that on the way back.

Huh.

Jeong Chan-woo leapt, looking at his phone, sighing, and writing something.

Considering its Friday evening, I thought he might be getting a message from a girl.

Bamboo Forest?

Displayed on Jeong Chan-woos screen was the Bamboo Forest. When asked about it, since I ended up glimpsing it unintentionally, Jeong Chan-woo answered awkwardly.

I work in the construction engineering department.

Ah?!

If its the construction engineering department, isnt Anonymous300 from there? I heard that last year, a senior managing the Bamboo Forest got so annoyed that he lumped all the construction engineering students into 300 numbers.

If we dont do this, we get an earful from the seniors. They all know what numbers we are.

So, they arent exactly anonymous.

What number are you?

To my question, Jeong Chan-woo bitterly smiled and answered.

321.

Anonymous321, huh?

It seems Ive never really noticed number 321, since the 300s are usually swarming.

They even forced us to watch the Popo broadcast today. Ah, I hate that so much.

I dont like the name Popo at all. Sounds like something an old man would come up with.

Thats a taboo word in our department.

I thought he was a good one, but Jeong Chan-woo frowned while looking at the Bamboo Forest.

Then he showed me something.

Woojin isnt this about Seo Yerin?

Hmm?

What was displayed on the screen was a bit odd.

-Anonymous83: Why do pretty girls flirt with guys when they arent even ready to date?

It was a post that has been seen many times. It was a simple way to relieve stress.

-Anonymous46: ? Is there such a person?

-Anonymous83: Yes, and I really hate it.

-Anonymous46: Which department?

-Anonymous83: ELL.

-Anonymous46: What are you saying?

-Anonymous93: Ah, that person!

-Anonymous167: Lol, I guess I wasnt the only one who thought of this.

-Anonymous83: Moreover, the one they are dating is this social misfit who cannot even talk properly with other people.

-Anonymous46: Birds of a feather flock together.

-Anonymous11: Damn, is it another attack on the English department? Cut it out, bitches.

-Anonymous83: Who even said it was about the English department? Youre overreacting, lol.

-Anonymous167: But did that guy have a girlfriend?

-Anonymous93: Isnt it known? It was a mess then, biting, and sucking each other off.

We have our own issues, but you people seem to be having a hard time.

Jeong Chan-woo turned off the Bamboo Forest app with a bitter taste, but for me, it was an issue I couldnt just overlook.

It was about Seo Yerin.

And the role of the boyfriend being cursed as a misfit was

Me.

It was clearly an intentional post.

That fellow, Anonymous83, must have created such public opinion intentionally with his friends.

Thanks to the accumulated comments, it naturally drew attention, causing many others to see it.

Even if they dont know who I am right now, since Seo Yerin is so famous, everyone will find out that its her.

Besides, Anonymous46 is the bastard who targeted me the last time.

I had no idea such a mess would happen when my phone was off during the exam.

As I hurriedly turned on the phone and checked the Bamboo Forest, there were many piled-up inquiries, but the post by Anonymous83 was still getting fuel added to the fire.

-Anonymous67: Is English literature being struck again?

-Anonymous288: The English department is full of snipers.

-Anonymous83: Did I mention their names? There are so many bastards who have nothing better to do on Friday night than to shoot comments in the Bamboo Forest.

-Anonymous69: Sex

-Anonymous90: Sex God! Did you do well in your exams?!

Meanwhile, Seo Yerin was typing sex in response to the post targeting her.

If this was a resistance, it was her own form of it.

Ahh.

Just when I was about to delete the post.

-Anonymous59: Friends Tripe.

A question came in, perfectly timed. I frowned, wondering what this was about.

The next message was shocking.

-Anonymous59: Its our meeting place, Woojin.

Anonymous59 addressed me by name.

And then.

The message which followed came right on time.

-Yu Arin: (emoji)

It was an emoji of a cat licking its lips, eyeing its prey.
