“Hyun-woo, excuse me for a second. You are talking to your boss.”

Lee Ji-ah asked me for forgiveness and hurriedly left the store.

Woodang!

The president and Park Ji-young ran to the table like ponies.

“Kim Hyun-woo! Hey man! What is it man!”

“brother! Just Lee Ji-ah, right? right?”

Beeping like a baby bird looking at its mother, the two nodded their heads.

“Hey! I just looked at it and it looks like we’re not getting along very well… … .”

“It’s not like that.”

“We heard it all, but what?”

eating.

Park Ji-young smiled caringly as if she knew everything.

“If it’s my brother, then it must be something like that.”

Park Ji-young’s unreasonable use of heart was ignored. Because that’s not what’s important.

“Brother, I have something to tell you.”

“yes? Is it important?”

“Yeah, something… … .”

Because I’m working with Lee Ji-ah now.

Café Bastard is not available. you should tell me in advance It seems that Lee Ji-ah also left her seat because of that.

“Tell me about that later, and let’s talk about it.”

“… … .”

He seemed unwilling to listen. The two kept asking me things about Lee Ji-ah.

“How do I know that?”

Each time I replied that I didn’t know. It’s only been a day since I’ve seen it, but how do I know what game you’re playing?

Then the president and Park Ji-young got angry and asked.

“no! What if you don’t know that?”

“Isn’t your brother doing too much?”

“… … ?”

As they were about to gather around and chat, the door swung open. Ji-ah Lee walked in with a shopping bag over her shoulder.

“Hehe, are you here? Lee Ji-ah Hunter.”

The boss greeted him by sullenly rubbing his hands. Lee Ji-ah strode over and grabbed my wrist.

“I’ll take Hyun-woo.”

Lee Ji-ah notified the president.

“Det… ? I beg your pardon?”

The boss asked with a puzzled face.

The woman I thought was a crazy bitch was actually an S-class hunter, and the S-class hunter was actually acquainted with a part-timer in her shop, and now it would be embarrassing to take a part-timer with her.

“What… … ?”

The boss looked at me. His eyes were looking for an explanation. shrugged his shoulders.

“So, you said that before.”

“Wow, what do you mean?”

“I got to work with that Jia. I think I should quit the cafe.”

“Where do you say that to me that day, bastard!”

The boss groaned and shouted.

That was correct. Even the boss would be angry if he suddenly told me to quit on the same day.

“Hyun-woo, it’s okay. Leave this to me.”

“No, it’s my job… … .”

“You said it. Hyunwoo, you just need to stay by my side.”

Jia smiled brightly and stepped forward. She held out her shopping bag to the boss.

“What is this?”

The boss answered bluntly. It meant that Lee Ji-ah, who was taking away valuable manpower, was no longer a guest.

“Open it once.”

The boss, who looked at him with suspicion, received a shopping bag.

“Ugh!”

The boss’s eyes popped out as if they were about to fall out.

“It’s consolation money. As a token of my gratitude, I put a little sincerity in it.”

what? What are you so surprised about?

Out of curiosity, I also stole the contents.

“… … .”

There were piles of money piled up.

Did you mean you went out to get money?

The president felt the gaze and hid the shopping bag behind him. He gave me an awkward smile.

“what are you doing? were you still Hurry up, follow Lee Ji-ah Hunter-sama.”

“Hyung, the cafe… … .”

“Don’t worry, let’s go! go!”

The boss hurriedly urged him, fearing that he might ask for it back.

Acceptance fell.

Lee Ji-ah turned around as if there was nothing to see. She grabbed my wrist and pulled me.

“Come on, Hyunwoo.”

“yes? Nep!”

Lee Ji-ah came out and called somewhere.

“hello.”

– Lee Ji-ah! Why the hell aren’t you answering the phone?! Do you know what’s going on outside!? Where are you now!?

“I will leave that guild.”

-… what?

“I am leaving the guild. I will send you the penalty immediately.”

– What does that mean? Do you know who it is that is barely blocking the internet public opinion that is about to explode now?

The man on the phone put a threat. Lee Ji-ah snorted. She was no longer obsessed with public opinion.

“I don’t need that anymore. I found a better way.”

-Lee Ji-ah!!

“It was the guild leader who forced the Abyss into the raid. Do it yourself.”

drop!

Lee Ji-ah said only what she had to say and hung up the phone. She put the phone to her ear again.

Hey, I’m busy, I’m busy.

“The president of the association?”

Are you the president of the association this time?

-… … Miss Jia? where are you now

“It’s not that important. President of the association. I’ve been looking for it personally. I was the only one in the Abyss raid that had the rank downgraded.”

-that… … .

“It’s an excuse. I will request a request for disclosure of on-site camera information at that time, so please send it. Please reschedule the hearing.”

-Didn’t you say you didn’t want to go to your hearing?

“I was… … .”

Lee Ji-ah, who swallowed the horse, glanced at my face.

“It doesn’t really matter now.”

A weary sigh came over the receiver.

-… … Suddenly the person changed. Is it really Miss Jia?

“How many people know the number of the president of the association?”

– I see. Let’s try to reschedule the hearing.

drop!

Contact was lost. Lee Ji-ah held the smartphone in her hand and shook her body.

“Are you okay?”

I asked anxiously.

Depression again? even though i’m nearby

As I approached Lee Ji-ah with such worries, Lee Ji-ah suddenly stretched out with a relieved face.

“Shut up!!”

She couldn’t hold back her excitement and smiled brightly.

“Hyun-woo, Hyun-woo! Did you just see it?”

“yes… ?”

“I’m doing business with the cafe owner, saying everything I want to say to the guild head and the president of the association! Did you see it!”

“Look, I saw it.”

what? Is that something you’d love to do?

It was nothing special to claim and fulfill his rights.

However, it was not the case with Lee Ji-ah.

She really jumped with joy.

Just by saying everything I have to say proudly.

There was a little dew on the corners of her eyes. It was because of joy and excitement.

“Are you that good?”

“sure! It’s all thanks to Hyunwoo!”

“What did I do?”

didn’t really do anything.

It was all done by Lee Ji-ah alone, beating the drum and playing the janggu.

Nevertheless, Lee Ji-ah was truly grateful to me.

It’s frustrating.

Lee Ji-ah said while turning the car key with her index finger.

“Shall we have a test drive now?”

* * *

A luxury foreign car drove on the road.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, I still couldn’t tell if this was a dream or a birthday.

Oh My God.

Driving a foreign car like this is something to live for for a long time.

Seriously, I’m going to drive a cheap car because of what the domestic top rankers lack.

If it’s natural, it’s natural, but Lee Ji-ah’s next words were a little surprising.

‘First of all, I’m giving this for business support, so you can think of it as yours and use it for personal purposes. Don’t worry, the fuel and repair costs are all covered.’

We will be together for the rest of our lives, sir… !

“Oh right. Jia, where are we going now?”

I was going according to the navigation guide that Lee Ji-ah took, but I couldn’t hear why I was going.

Lee Ji-ah, who was sitting in the passenger seat and looking at her smartphone, answered a bit late.

“This is a place to live in the future.”

“ah.”

By the way, did I mention that you will also support me with accommodation?

As the money I receive is the money I receive, I wondered if I even needed accommodation.

“It’s okay if I get a separate room——”

“No.”

Lee Ji-ah was taken aback and stopped talking.

The first time I heard her sword-like tone, my heart shrank.

S-class is also S-class.

I shouldn’t be mistaken for acting like a purebred.

There is also a relationship between the boss and his subordinates.

I guess it’s because I need it for work.

“… … By the way, what have you been watching?”

I was driving, so I rolled my eyes and glanced at Lee Ji-ah’s smartphone.

Lee Ji-ah showed her smartphone.

“This one? My malicious comments on internet articles. Since I’m back, all the comments are different. Look at what is more swearing than usual.”

I couldn’t read the malicious comments because I was driving. But the words like cubs,, and prostitutes came to my eyes.

“Huh? Would it be okay to see something like that?”

asked anxiously.

I don’t know what the yangban, who even thought of committing suicide because of the malicious comments, was looking at the malicious comments.

Is the obsession over again?

Lee Ji-ah smiled mischievously. The dimples on both cheeks were deeply dug.

“yes. it’s okay. It’s okay to see.”

“… ?”

“When I was alone, even if I looked at my scars a little, I couldn’t sleep and even tears came out of my anger… … .”

Lee Ji-ah met my eyes in the rearview mirror.

“Since Hyeonu is by my side, I don’t mind even receiving more malicious comments than before. I was so excited to see it.”

“… … It sounds a bit odd.”

“is it?”

Lee Ji-ah’s trust was felt. Feeling a bit unfamiliar, I scratched the tip of my nose.

“… … I am upset that the malicious comments are getting worse than before. What makes it so much fun to torment others?”

It was real. Primary criticism was predominant. The public opinion on the Internet has already turned to Lee Ji-ah’s anti-fans.

Read at readwn.com

Most of the best comments on the article were swearing at her.

“It must have been very difficult in the past. But now it doesn’t matter at all. I can get over it now.”

“… … .”

okay.

Where have I met someone who needs even this kind of ability?

That’s why an S-class hunter needs me.

It might be much better than the mediocre hunter life.

I felt a slight uplift.

I feel like my life is about to change in the future.

– You have arrived at your destination. Exit navigation.

“It has arrived! Please stop here for a second!”

Lee Ji-ah took off her seat belt and got off. I also checked the side brakes and got off.

“Five.”

Unbeknownst to me, an exclamation came out. Large mansions were sparsely located.

Isn’t this a rich neighborhood?

“Didn’t you say you were going to the dorm?”

“yes.”

“Do you have accommodation in Itaewon?”

“sure.”

Wow.

Do you have accommodation in Itaewon?

How the hell do you have so much money that you invest so much in one employee?

I was purely amazed.

“This is my lodging.”

Lee Ji-ah took me to the biggest house around. I felt strange.

“… … Jia.”

“yes?”

“Is this really your accommodation?”

“yes.”

I saw the house nameplate hanging on the wall.

[Lee Ji-ah]

Are you going to put your name on the dormitory?

I pointed my finger at the nameplate.

“Is there Jia’s nameplate here?”

“yes.”

“Isn’t this Jia’s house?”

“yes that’s right.”

Words keep saying nonsense.

Hmmm.

“So, Jia-san, did you say that you would introduce me to the dormitory?”

“yes.”

“So, I moved to my house now.”

“yes.”

“By the way, isn’t this Jia’s house?”

“It’s our house.”

Whoops-! Whoops-!

I had the illusion of a crow crowing in my head.

I summed it up by messing around with my hair.

“So, how can Jia’s house become my dormitory!?”

Lee Ji-ah tilted her head and looked at me.

“Yeah, it’s because the dorm where Hyun-woo will live is our house.”

“… ?”

“… … ?”

Read at readwn.com

My head couldn’t keep up. Lee Ji-ah looked at me as if she was saying something.

she asked

“What is the scope of Hyeonu-san’s abilities?”

“I haven’t experimented with it in earnest, but if I try to use it consciously, it’s about the size of a Bastard Cafe store.”

“Is that right? From the first meeting, I thought that the scope wouldn’t be that wide if I saw that the ability wasn’t applied to me right away.”

Lee Ji-ah looked at each one one by one.

“I only meet during the daytime at work, so even if it doesn’t matter, is it at night?”

“yes… ?”

“After work. Even if it’s just next door, it’s outside the scope of my ability, but what about me after Hyeon-woo goes to a faraway dorm?”

“yes… ?”

“Every night and every weekend, we have to go back to the days without Mr. Hyeonu.”

“yes… ?”

Lee Ji-ah smiled round and round.

The eyes were not smiling at all.

Eyes as deep as an abyss stared into mine.

It’s like he’s trying to observe something inside of me.

“You’ve already done so much, but you want to spend half a day without Hyeonu?”

The conversation I had with Lee Ji-ah just flashed past.

‘So, did Jia originally intend to commit suicide?’

‘When I was alone, even if I looked at my scars, I couldn’t sleep and even tears came out of my anger… … .’

‘… … I’m upset that the malicious comments are getting worse than before.’

‘This one? My malicious comments on internet articles. Since I’m back, all the comments are different. Look at what is more swearing than usual.’

right.

Unlike usual, Lee Ji-ah also hit the guild that would become her shield. He had a confrontation with the president of the association.

Even though he knew clearly how it would attack him in the media.

Why did Lee Ji-ah, who was afraid and obsessed with malicious comments, put such an unreasonable number?

for what reason?

there is only one

it was me

If I’m by your side, Lee Ji-ah can live without depression and obsession.

It was as if I had submerged my head in ice water.

Her and I had different standards of work.

Naturally, I thought of separating work and private life.

But Lee Ji-ah was different.

She bought my life.

Finally, the crazy paycheck made sense.

‘My salary is about this, and I’ll support you with lodging and a car. It’s probably impossible to take a leave of absence, but the job will be comfortable–‘

That said, retirement is impossible.

Clues were everywhere.

I just couldn’t find it.

The spine became cold.

“G, Jia, once again about our contract… … .”

Suddenly, Lee Ji-ah jumped into my arms. She whispered softly in my ear.

“… … Don’t even think about running away now.”

It’s a sweet act that can make anyone mistaken for a lover. However, a completely different momentum from that atmosphere was felt in her words.

“I am an S-class hunter.”

Lee Ji-ah, who smiled brightly, said intimidatingly.

The eyes were still not smiling at all.
