Episode 88
“son?”
Her eyes wide open when she sees me.
A mother wearing an apron with the name of the restaurant and greasy rubber gloves.
our mom.
The surprised face soon turned to bewilderment.
“Tae-Tae-kyung, how are you here?”
At that time, when he smiled at his embarrassed mother, a high-pitched voice pierced his ears.
“Is that Mr. Kim’s son?”
A middle-aged woman scrutinizes me with wary eyes.
You don’t even have to ask who you are or what you do. Because I already know the identity of this woman.
“Hello, my name is Jin Tae-kyung.”
“uh? Hmmm. okay.”
Seeing me bowing down to my waist politely, the boss coughed for nothing and asked.
“But why did you come here all of a sudden?”
replied with a smile.
“Does the son need a reason to come to see his mother?”
”reason?”
The boss’s eyes narrowed.
“Maybe it’s because I’m a young person, so my thoughts are short. How would I, the boss, feel if he came to me suddenly like this?”
“hmm. You must feel bad.”
“okay!”
“It’s lunch time, so the store is bustling, and the kitchen and the hall are busy.”
“… … yes.”
“But suddenly, the employee’s son came without a word? It can make you feel bad for your boss. I fully understand.”
“Okay, I know.”
what is this child The current boss must be thinking that way.
Leaving behind the boss’s confused reaction, I tugged at my mother’s arm.
“In that sense, we are going to leave. Mom, let’s change our clothes and go out.”
“what?”
“Oh, son?”
two confused people.
I asked with a natural expression.
“why?”
“Why, why!”
“Are there any problems?”
“Is a child of labor playing with an adult? Did you forget everything I just said?”
“Ah, you said you’d be offended if I came to you when you were busy?”
“okay! Forgot about it after you said that it might make you feel bad from my point of view? Are you kidding people right now?!”
“Oh, I’m kidding.”
“Then what?”
“What I said earlier is sincere. From the boss’s point of view, that may be enough. however… … I smiled broadly and continued.
“My mom, I’m not an employee there anymore.”
“what?”
“Don’t you understand? I’m going to hit you. From this moment.”
A heavy silence fell. Her mother stared blankly at me, and the boss, whose face turned dark red, shouted.
“Whoever wants!”
“As we like.”
“I know I’ll let you go like this!”
“What if I don’t let you go?”
“this person!”
three three! Buy, buy!”
It was just the limit there. The boss’s patience.
“Hey, this dog!”
The hand raised with a double desire did not achieve its purpose.
snap.
One person who snatched the president’s wrist at once widened his eyes.
Mom chewed and spit out a bloody force that would sting even a first-class master.
“Who’s trying to touch my baby’s body.”
Oh my God, I heard it once when I was in the hall, but it’s the first time I’ve ever seen my mother swear. He doesn’t even gossip about other people in front of his children… … .
“And what bastard? Your son is a dog. You piggy woman!”
“That was real from a while ago! hey!”
I stopped the boss from running towards my mother.
I have a physique that stands out wherever I go. It was enough just to stand still between the two middle-aged women.
“Uh huh. Calm down, calm down.”
“Get out of the way, don’t you get out of the way? I think you guys will be all right!”
“Yes, do you think you will live a full life with your back open?”
“Oooh!”
The president, whose eyes were turned upside down, started waving his arms at random with a scream. Of course, it was an attack that did not pose any threat to me.
‘It’s embarrassing to even call it an attack.’
When I think of the enemies I faced in Gate and Moorim, it is no different than the flapping of wings of a fly. Musculoskeletal, muscle veins, and toughness have risen tremendously, and now, even if a decent adult male hits, it tickles.
“Please stop it. You look very tired right now.”
As expected, the president’s madness ended quickly.
It was because the age of entering the 50s and the body that reached altitude and obesity had its limits.
“Huh, Heo Eok, does a guy called Hunter persecute civilians?”
I never thought I would make a comment like this I admired the brain structure of the president.
“Am I? that one?”
“Can’t you see I’m hurt? My fingernails are broken and bleeding!”
“That’s right, the lady hit me and got hurt alone. She was just standing here before, so why is she shaking her body alone?”
“anyway!”
This is enough for a damn good harvest. Looking around, the kitchen staff as well as the customers in the hall were watching the president’s stand-up comedy with tired faces.
“If you don’t understand something, call the police. It’s perfect because there are 50 witnesses here.”
“Why don’t you call me? I’m bleeding because I was hurt because of Hunter, so I have to go to the police station, write a report, file a complaint, and hire a lawyer. You’ll be busy tomorrow.”
I was going to tease him a bit more, but the more we talk, the more time is wasted.
I clicked my tongue.
“What kind of mayor is the president? Don’t make the people around you tired, and write your Simbo well. Then I’m leaving.”
That was when I was about to turn around. The corner of the president’s mouth, which had a resentful face, twisted.
“You said you live in Bucheon?”
“By the way.”
“Where is the guild in Bucheon?”
“Do you know if I tell you?”
“My son knows. Our Minsu also hunts in Bucheon.”
“Oh yeah?”
“I heard that hunters know each other after crossing a bridge or two? I don’t know how long I can endure if rumors go bad on the floor.”
“I’m known for being sincere and good at it, so I’m going to hold out for a long time. That’s Okay?”
“Do you know Minsu Kim? My son must be famous in Bucheon.”
Kim Min Soo? know. Over the past 7 years, there will be more than 30 people who have passed by. I replied nonchalantly.
“Do you know Sung Jin-ho? He’s the most famous in our gosiwon.”
“Foot, gosiwon? Maybe it’s because he’s an F-rank hunter, he’s good enough to know his level. Are the wages that bad?”
“Thank you so much for your concern, but… … It’s pretty cool.
I earned 4 billion yesterday.”
“how much?”
“Four billion.”
I didn’t want to brag about my money in a childish way, but you’re touching the nose hair of a sleeping lion.
However, there was one thing I forgot. People always make decisions based on their common sense.
“Four billion? Does an F-rank Hunter earn that much?”
“Of course it is false. A hunter I know says that if you’re in F rank, you have to work really hard to earn about 100 million won. And didn’t you just hear? It’s not your annual salary, it’s that you said you made 4 billion in one day yesterday. It’s not a lottery, does that make sense?”
“Ah, I thought it was real again.”
Not only the customers in the hall, but also the kitchen staff, who had been secretly cheering me on, changed their eyes to trembling eyes.
Well, even if I think about it, it’s a ridiculous story.
“Is it true, son?”
The boss snorted at the mother’s wide-eyed question.
“It must be quite true. Our Minsu can’t earn that much either.”
“I’ve been wondering since before, what is the rank of the famous Minsu? Grade A?”
“It’s a D-class Hunter.”
“Why are you embarrassed that it is so high?”
“No, what… … I’m honestly embarrassed.”
Speaking so confidently, Monkey. D.
I thought it would be about Minsu.
‘Where is the famous Hunter in Bucheon?’
“I have to be a D-class hunter like my son to go somewhere and be treated well. F-rankers are shy, so can they talk?”
“I wasn’t too ashamed.
You spoke well.”
“I will be ignored, though. Among hunters, the rank is a gangster.”
“Ah, yes. The rating is a gangster.”
“A single call from me is enough for Minsu… … “
“Yes, yes.”
As I rummaged through my pockets while answering casually, the boss raised his eyebrows.
“This is what an adult is saying. Do you want to be scolded by our Minsu?”
“I have something to look for. Oh, here it is.”
“What is this?”
“If you are curious, see for yourself.”
There are so many point cards and discount coupons in my wallet that finding them is a chore.
After checking the thin silver card I handed over, the president opened his mouth.
“……A C-class hunter?”
“Personally, I think Hunters are gangsters, but what do you think, boss?”
“No, that is nonsense. I’ve heard that it’s definitely F grade… … “
“It was F grade. Now. It’s class. Information updates are very slow.”
“Hey, isn’t this fake? The color is completely different from our civilian license!”
“That license is brass, isn’t it?”
“I wrote that before. Low-level hunters are brass, and mid-level hunters are silver. I guess you didn’t know this.”
Breathless laughter erupted from everywhere.
The atmosphere changed in an instant. Her mom put her arms around me with a proud smile, and the boss started making excuses for her with a reddened face.
“Does Hunter rank matter? There is only a difference between grade c and degree, but there it is.”
This is what I mean, fart. I can’t help but laugh at the ridiculous outbursts.
“I don’t think that’s what a person who used to ignore people with a Hunter rating would say.”
“Are people only important in rank? It doesn’t matter where the company is. They pay more for the assistant manager of a large company than the manager of a small business. Am I wrong?”
“I don’t know… … First of all, the guests here don’t seem to agree?”
I pointed to the guests who filled the hall. Dozens of office workers at small and medium-sized businesses were glaring at the president, not hiding their displeasure on their faces.
“What is that lady?”
“Ah, my appetite is dropping.”
“The food hasn’t even come out yet, so should we just go?”
“Okay, let’s go. go.”
“Everyone move. There’s a good place in front of me. Even if I can’t be an assistant manager at a large company, I’m a manager at a small business, so I’ll give it a shot.”
drooling.
At the words of the middle-aged man, five or six subordinates followed. Such scenes were taking place all over the hall.
“Guest, that’s not it. customer!”
“No, what is it? See if I come back here.”
“I ordered now, but if I go like this…?”
“Looking at the kitchen, it would take an hour, what? It’s done, and we’re leaving.”
Despite the persuasion of the hall staff, people slipped out like the ebb tide. After a minute or so, there were less than 10 customers left in the hall.
‘Oh, I can already hear the sound of the store going bankrupt.’
The boss was already shaking with anger and embarrassment.
“You, you guys… …
“So which guild is your son from?”
“Our Minsu is a very successful hunter in the Sangdong Guild! about you
“yes? Where?”
“Sangdong Guild! They give you a house and a car there.”
“Ah, the Sangdong Guild. Could you wait a moment?”
Is there such a strange coincidence? I sighed and took out my phone and made a call.
Dou-du, du-dak.
-Uh, why?
“What’s the matter, did we keep in touch when we had to work?”
-… … I sent the promised 4 billion.
“Ah, I checked that. well received.”
Everyone heard the conversation going on through speaker mode.
4 billion. When it turns out that what she said earlier is true, her eyes pop out like one. I ignored the pouring stares and brought out the business.
“Are you sure your name is Kim Min-soo?”
– Minsu Kim? It’s the first name I’ve heard.
“The Sangdong Guild team leader doesn’t even know that? A member of your guild. A high-class hunter.”
– … … It’s a D-class hunter, but how do I know? Are you calling about this?
yes hang up
It was a godsend that he received Lim Chang-soo’s business card for fear of stealing money.
Pop, hang up the phone, and the boss asks in a stammering voice.
“Who, who?”
“Didn’t you hear? This is the team leader of the Sangdong Guild. To put it simply, Mr. Minsu’s boss at work.”
“… … Team Leader? superior?”
“Ah, to add one more thing, Minsu is also a future employer who needs to be seen well. This friend’s father is the head of the Sangdong Guild.”
A face as white as a sheet of paper. There is no reason or need to mix up words anymore.
I turned my head towards my mother.
“Go now.”
“Is that so? son.”
My mother, Mrs. Kim Jung-hee, smiled broadly and tossed her work clothes into the sink. Oh, of course I didn’t forget to say a word to her boss.
“If you are a parent, live uprightly like a parent.
it’s this lady Where did you dare to talk about her other’s precious child?”
one last room.
Instead of answering, the boss lowered his head and we walked out of the store with light steps.
“Son, have you eaten? I have cheonggukjang and kimchi pancakes at home.”
“Hey, it’s a feast.”
What a nice day.
