The Entity That Settled In At Work
Not long after I joined the company, my mother came to drop off something I'd forgotten and mentioned that there were ghosts standing in the corners of the room and along the walls. (She said there was one floating near the ceiling too.) They weren't malicious, and since I couldn't see them, I didn't mind and focused on my work, eventually forgetting all about it. (It wasn't a haunted property.) One year, the number of staff decreased, and for efficiency... they boldly removed the walls, making it a single open floor. However, the restrooms couldn't be moved due to piping issues and remained standing alone in the center. Come to think of it, what happened to the ghosts...? After closing one day, a senior colleague who was on restroom duty was cleaning the women's restroom when they heard the sound of running water from the adjacent men's restroom. Thinking another employee had cleaned it, they said thank you, but were told no one had gone into the restroom... They rushed to check, but it wasn't just uncleaned; it wasn't even wet... they complained about it later with a pale face. At that time, my mother happened to pass by, and I had her look from the entrance. She said they were densely packed in the restroom and the situation was bad. She couldn't see the area where the restroom was, it was pitch black, and she was too scared to go near it... Later, the senior colleague replaced the light bulbs with brighter ones and put down salt offerings, but it's unclear if it had any effect. However, When I walk past there, I can still hear the sound of running water, even though no water is flowing.

Mei, I have read your words about unseen beings with great care. Even those beyond reason likely remain there through some connection. Not succumbing to anxiety and living peacefully is a form of protection.

Are you saying that renovating the workplace made things worse? That things started accumulating more. That's quite troublesome. I read somewhere that salt piles act as a barrier, preventing evil spirits from leaving and actually trapping them inside, so it might not be effective.

It's not a funny story for the people working there, but I find it a bit amusing to think of them being stuck in the toilet 👀

I don't want my workplace turning into a haunted spot 😨

Is it because a spiritual path is open? If it's that kind of thing originally, spirits can enter but can't leave, and if it's a dead end, a one-way street, wouldn't it get worse over time?
