chapter 12
12 – Maid Noodle House (2)
In conclusion, things went well.
‘I have to kill my personality too. What would Chaewon think?’
I sighed and left the police station.
The police officer who had been pushing me until just now bowed and bowed.
Don’t be new to life history.
This police officer would think so. He shuddered for the power of the higher, but how embarrassed he must have been to meet a bigger entity than the rope he was holding.
I didn’t mean to blame him, but I was pathetic.
If I hadn’t had anything, I would have touched the cold prison bars rather than the pleasant air.
“Goodbye!”
‘What kind of thug am I?’
Still, I’m glad things went well.
Didn’t you even think of a presidential hostage situation? It was a joke idea, but I had the ability to make it a reality.
“Do you want to go home right away? I will take you there.”
Eugene spoke politely and asked the doctor.
Faint handprints remained on Eugene’s face.
I stared intently at the mark.
Eugene said if he noticed the meaning of my gaze.
“This is nothing.”
“… why.”
But it wasn’t the answer I intended.
I was genuinely curious.
“Why didn’t you dodge?”
Judging by the energy she felt, she was at least a B-class hunter.
It must have seemed so slow that it was boring to wait for the goppiri to blow.
But she didn’t dodge and was hit quietly.
“Because it’s strange for an ordinary noodle restaurant part-time worker to avoid that attack.”
“… Is that the answer?”
“I didn’t exactly want things to escalate. That’s because there’s no damage at all. So, there was no need for Mr. Sung Hoon to step out. That’s inefficient. Please don’t step forward if something similar happens in the future.”
Eugene said to me with a blunt expression.
I said, shaking my head.
“Why?”
“Yes?”
“Why are you doing this?”

Know. That her whole purpose is one.
That was exactly what got me into the government.
But even taking that into consideration, there was a lot of oddity in her behavior.
If it bothered me openly, I’d rather not worry about it.
Starting with the maid outfit, aren’t you doing things for the sake of the shop with all your heart? Compared to her status, a mere noodle shop is insignificant.
“That doesn’t change my mind. It’s like the first time. Because I have no intention of belonging anywhere.”
Numerous incidents await in the future.
It wasn’t around me. Roulette gate repeated several times, unbearable boss monsters.
If I belonged to the government, everything was something I had to solve.
I didn’t intend to live this life like that. My decision doesn’t change even if I get slapped on the cheek.
“Stop it now.”
“Part-time job is the only condition that Mr. Seong-Hoon allowed us to do.”
“It cannot be called a condition. It is of no help to them.”
Yujin stopped walking and just looked at me.
“Give me room.”
“… … .”
“I won’t ask for too much. It’s okay if you keep rejecting it in the future. However, please let me leave a footprint that I tried my best.”
Was it an illusion, or was it a mirage created by her appearance?
I could see the earnestness in Eugene’s expressionless expression.
‘It wouldn’t be the right thing to refuse even this.’
she got help
I wasn’t the type to live in debt.
“… There are no days off in our store. If you want to find a war label, just tell me.”
“Yeah.”
Yujin lowered her head moderately and smiled quietly.
She rang the smart key in her right hand. A light came on from a vehicle in the near distance.
“Would you like to go with me?”
“I see.”
I said one thing before getting into her car.
“I will pay you back for this. Aside from being told to join the government, I’ll do anything you want. small.”
It was a minimal courtesy for her favor.
Eugene blinked for a moment, probably not expecting me to say such a thing.
And pick, he said with a smile.
“It’s an S-class Hunter’s wish. It’s precious to pay for alleviating some inconvenience.”
“… It means that I will help to the extent of my ability.”
“Then can I use it right now?”
“now?”
Eugene nodded.
‘What are you asking for? Are there any troublesome gates?’
When I was in doubt, she handed me her cell phone.
“Did I say it was expensive? that number. If anything, I want to get something valuable.”
“under… Is that the answer?”
I laughed because it was absurd.
The S-class Hunter 1-time license was not light.
She must have known exactly the value… number.
‘It’s quite right.’
She was a pretty interesting woman.
To the point where I wondered why I hadn’t met them in my previous life.
I took her phone and wrote down the number.
“If you intend to do me a favor, you just succeeded.”
Eugene smiled softly.
**
– Beep beep beep.
“Your brother is here.”
I opened the front door wide.
“You’re okay, are you hurt?”
As soon as the door opened, Chaewon ran to me like a puppy.
Then he looked at me with a worried expression on his face.
“Because I’m not hurt. Were you very worried?”
I don’t know how I knew it, but Chaewon kept calling me.
I remembered the reassurance that I would talk to you at home.
‘I’m probably very surprised.’
When I went to the store, it was half-wrapped, and it must have been more so since the whereabouts of the only blood relative were unknown.
“Hey, don’t worry! It’s because I feel like I got caught up in a fight with my weak brother.”
I looked at Chaewon’s crying face.
He said that, but looking at the paper towels piled up on the table, he probably shed a lot of tears.
‘I can’t be honest.’
Chaewon is timid in front of others, but she tried not to show her weak side in front of me.
Maybe he doesn’t want to see me worried.

Knowing how Chaewon felt, I didn’t want to say anything.
“Did you eat?”
sniff
Chaewon said while wiping her eyes.
“I didn’t eat. My brother had something like that, how can I eat alone?”
I expected.
No matter how much I like to eat.
If I was at the police station, would the food have gone into my mouth?
A good brother can’t…
“By the way, what did you put in your mouth?”
I looked at Chaewon with an absurd face.
There was something like rice glue on his lips.
Chaewon looked at the mirror with a puzzled look and quickly took it off.
“No, it just ate a spoonful. I hope my brother won’t come.”
It was the red seasoning, probably because I ate bibimbap.
‘This is real.’
As I looked at Chaewon with mischievous eyes, she stammered and hurriedly changed the subject.
“Brother, by the way, did you know that our noodle shop is uploaded on YouTube?”
“Youtube?”
I rewinded the memories from before.
A YouTuber who came with a tripod in his right hand.
Aiming at the store’s rice cake table, I readily allowed the filming, but trouble arose.
The fighting scenes must have been filmed.
I asked Chaewon with a worried face.
“How are you?”
“I can’t see. How do you see the fit of your brother?”
Chaewon shook her head.
‘Looks like I was hit.’
I got her cell phone.
In the recorded video, everything from the students touching Yujin to the scene of me kicking back was shown.
‘It finally came up.’
I watched the video with a devastated expression.
Restaurants do not go far if there is controversy. If there are any bad rumors going around… … .
‘Then it’s over.’
Even a small mistake is a stone’s throw away.
If rumors circulate that he hit a customer, even a minor, it will be difficult to continue the business.
I pressed the video while thinking of an alternative.
[There is an assault case at a restaurant, which is a hot topic. A restaurant owner who saw a minor molesting him couldn’t stand it… … .]
– hahahaha the owner of One Punch Man Noodle House
-Part-timers are pretty hahahahaha I can understand the students’ feelings a little hahahahaha
-Are you able to live a daily life? Understanding is a crazy person hahahaha But if I was that part-time student, I would understand.
-Everyone, this is our neighborhood hahahaha The noodles are delicious, the boss is gentle. There must have been a reason for everything.
– It’s in the video. Even though the kids touch it first. But aren’t part-timers on the level of idols?
“… uh?”
I doubted my eyes. Isn’t that surprisingly bad?
“Maybe this… … .”
The shaking pupil stared at the video.
The news article was clearly in my favor.
People’s reactions weren’t bad either.
That means… ?
“A rice cake?”
**
Early in the morning, I trembled with part-timers at a noodle restaurant.
“What is that… ? I’m scared!”
Saerom looked outside with confused eyes.
Phosphoric acid. The word couldn’t fit better.
People were clamoring in lines.
“I’m here to pay, boss! Open the door!”
I didn’t tremble like this even when I caught the biggest monster on earth.
‘I’m sure it’s because of that video yesterday.’
The ripple effect brought by news and SNS was beyond imagination.
The line was so long that I couldn’t see the end.
However, even if you go to the tiger’s den, you will live as long as you wake up.
“everyone… Listen carefully.”
“Yeah.”
“This is war. War. And if we win this war, the days ahead will be sunny.”
‘If the opportunity comes, I’ll grab it.’
It was my conviction.
As a person goes through life, several opportunities come.
A lot depends on whether you catch it or not.
“I’m going to live or die. If only this one goes well, I will definitely reward you.”
Saerom’s eyes went round at the part called case.
“Let’s try hard.”
I opened the shop
A guest came in.
I boiled the noodles nonstop, and Eugene and Saerom devoted themselves to boiling the noodles as much as they did.
… I probably took more than 300 pictures even if I couldn’t.
There were a lot of people who were curious because it was definitely an unfamiliar concept.
And.
“Fighting boss!”
There were not a few people who supported them.
Everyone threw a word while calculating.
Just like a frog being beaten to death by an insignificant pebble, the man’s heart seemed to melt at that insignificant word of goodwill.
“Doksan-dong Pacquiao Fighting!”
however… I heard words that were gradually out of focus.
“I’m a fan!”
“When will my UFC debut… … .”
“He said he came out of bread after living for five years… … ”
“brother! We look forward to the day you return to the organization!”
‘Oh, no, you crazy people.’
But the corners of my mouth had ascended to heaven. I knew that their jokes were pleasant stories out of goodwill.
In any case, customers flocked endlessly.
The moment came when the ingredients ran out.
It was one o’clock in the afternoon.
“sorry. I’m really sorry. I didn’t know that there would be such a large crowd of guests today and I didn’t prepare enough ingredients.”
“Aww, it’s okay. I only waited for 4 hours, but what?”
“… sorry.”
“hahahaha. joke, joke. You can come again next time. Do you have to give it to me then?”
I bowed my head deeply listening to the guests’ regretful voices.
“of course. I will prepare properly next time.”
“It’s like some sort of anti-terrorist operation… .”
“Yes?”
“No, the boss is cool.”
The guest left with a smile on his face. I looked at the backs of the guests with apologetic eyes.
‘It’s one o’clock in the afternoon. It’s the best record.’
It seems that this record will not be broken for a while.
The first-class formula for this job, part-timers who didn’t hurt even if they put it in their eyes were clearing the table.
I clapped once to draw attention.
“You worked hard today.”
“Oh, no. It’s nice that it’s over sooner than usual.”
As expected, he seemed to want to get off work as soon as possible.
“And the maid outfit.”
It was still irritating. I feel like I should talk about this.
A maid at a noodle house.
It couldn’t have been a terrible hybrid. It was an issue that had to be addressed.
“Ah, maid clothes are a bit like that, right?”
They cheered as if Saerom had worked well. It must have been difficult for her, who is a normal person, to wear a maid uniform in her mind.
100% agree I knew it couldn’t go on like this.
“Isn’t that too long?”
“… ?”
“If possible, shed some of her breasts and shortened her skirt a little… ”
I was already a slave to capitalism.
“hahahaha. It’s a joke, a joke.”
Could I possibly make such a request?
Not even trash. I wasn’t that bad boss. Even though he may be blinded by money, he does not exploit precious part-timers.
I said it was a joke and reassured Saerom, then looked at Eugene.
Eugene quietly nodded.
Really, it couldn’t have been an outstanding part-time job student.
