Living in a Garage With an Alien Car

“Kyung-Kyung!”

“Nyaaong~”

He said he was hungry and licked my face, so I had to give dental gum to the chewing gum and pray for fault.

“okay. okay. I’ll share what I caught today, I’m chewing on this.”

“Do you feed them separately instead of food?”

“Yeah, it’s comfortable as long as you give them food, but these guys are also omnivorous, so they like it when we give them meat and food. However, the problem is that you see the same stools as people.”

“Ugh..!”

“hahahaha, that’s why I’m struggling with defecation, so I’m thinking about getting used to high-quality feed now.”

“Well, how long will these guys live? It’s nice not to be stressed about eating. Now, thanks to you today, Hoon has set his face properly as a man. While Hyeji prepares the food, can we have a cool beer?”

“hahahahaha, good.”

#

The night on the island, where darkness fell softly, was quiet.

A sip of beer while looking at the sea illuminated by the stars and moonlight through the window makes you feel exotic, as if this place is a foreign resort.

Jang Beom-kyun was also sitting in his seat, and went in and out of the kitchen in the back to support Hye-ji.

After a not-so-short period of time, the two of them come out with a hearty table.

“Wow~~”

Today’s sea cucumber and anchovy sashimi, and even steamed sea bream caught this morning…

I came out dressed up nicely.

Above all, octopus tangtangi with octopus and raw meat, and mulhoe with sea cucumber, abalone, and seaweed were the best.

“Was it hard to take care of these?”

“Ha ha, no. Things like this are hard here.”

Jang Bum-gyun added that his father’s fishing boat operation has improved his basic cooking skills.

“You did a really good job today. Eat a lot and look at the event plan later. Where is the problem…”

“Yes, yes. Did you learn anything other than stealing?”

“My friend, would you like to have a drink?”

“It’s good.”

“I’d like a beer too. I thought it would be difficult to get feedback from my sober mind..”

“hahahahaha, then, Jesu-ssi, I will pour the drink for you.”

“thank you.”

The second drinking party with strangers after the trip.

What is the reason why it is more comfortable and deeper than the acquaintances I have met so far?

Odo-dok, oh-do-dok.

The chewy texture of sea cucumber, raw fish that goes well with octopus, the cool and refreshing feeling of water fish, and the fishy but savory flavor of anchovy sashimi make people happy.

Shin Hye-ji laughs as the alcohol continues to pour in front of the generous banquet-like side dishes.

“Well, maybe you won’t be able to eat if you drink that much water, right?”

“Anyway, since this beer is carbonated, comparing it to water is a bit…”

Did you receive entertainment as a documentary?

He grinned and shook his head as he glared at Jang Beom-gyun.

“If you eat like that during the day and see you eat like this again…”

“Shin Hyeji. I know you get sick if you stay away from alcohol even with such good food.”

“ha ha ha.”

“Kyong-k-k-k-k-k-k-k-k!”

Cloudy, who was eating dental gum and food on the floor, jumped up and started barking at the door.

“Why?”

Unlike usual, he barked sharply, so I jumped up from my seat and headed for the door.

Kkandoli and Kkansouni

The chewing gum also arrives at the door ahead of me, perhaps curious about the unfamiliar visitor (?).

Jumping, like a butterfly, a cloud climbing on the window sill.

Soon after, he looked outside and lowered his stiffly erect tail.

‘uh! Lowering the tail means lowering one’s guard.’

The same goes for Doongdungi who barked like that.

Doongdoongi, who had been pacing in front of the door before me, also quietly sits down.

Crunchy.

I followed the sound of scratching at the closed glass windows by the entrance porch.

“!”

That was the squirrel.

Putting your front paws together and scratching at the window glass means you want to come inside…

‘Ah… It must have been the squirrel hat that followed from earlier.’

“Oh my, it’s a squirrel hat.”

Shin Hye-ji, who followed, looked curiously at him and shouted.

Shin Hye-ji’s loud voice must have felt uneasy, and the squirrel hat quickly disappeared into the darkness.

“Wow, look at that tail… it’s so big.”

As Jang Bum-gyun said, the length of the tail seemed to exceed twice the length of the body.

“There won’t be much food on the island…”

‘I think I’m right. I came here because I was hungry.’

I heard that pigeons, magpies, wild boars, elk, etc. were designated as harmful animals because the top layer of the ecosystem was gradually disappearing, threatening people’s lives and causing damage.

Even the squirrel hat was not free.

Still… it wouldn’t hurt to feed them.

“Beom-Gyun-ah, stay for a while.. Wait, I’ll go out and come back.”

I hope Doongdoongi and Cloud will come along too..

“Squirrels can be surprised. I’ll just feed them outside and come back… I think you guys should stay inside.”

“Keong-kwon..”

“Nyaaang~”

The guys also seem to be a little disappointed.

I grabbed a handful of nuts that I ate as a snack and went out.

#

I sat outside, on the terrace, and waited for a few minutes, but he never showed up.

‘I’m sure he’ll be anxious.’

I sprinkled a handful of nuts on the floor and tried to go inside, but the guy peeked out from the darkness.

“Yes.. Illuwa. We have almonds, which you like, and walnuts, too.”

He must have understood my words.. he jumped up and stood at the front desk.

‘Hiya, the instantaneous speed is really fast.’

He’s still full of vigilance… hesitating in front of nuts.

I picked up the almond again and held it forward as if to eat it.

It jumps up at a brisk pace, snatches the almonds in its hand, and turns around to start gnawing them.

When Mrs. Beom-gyun and Mrs. Beom-gyun and the chewing gum sent an ok sign, they let out a silent clamor.

The guy who ate an almond in an instant also ate a walnut, cashew nuts, peanuts, and a few pine nuts on the spot.

It used to be rare to see squirrels, but these days, squirrels are common.

What will this guy eat for a living on this island?

…. While thinking about this and that.. The guy who stops eating and disappears into the darkness.

eat more

I still have half left…

Throwing regret into the darkness where he disappeared, I tried to go inside…

“It wasn’t just one!”

Whether he was a friend or a cub, he showed up with a small guy.

however..

“Oops… how did you end up like this?”

His neck and surroundings were covered with bloodstains and wounds, and the other leg seemed to be abnormal.

Still, the other guy is busy eating the remaining nuts.

Mrs. and Mrs. Beom-gyun, who were watching inside, came out with nuts and scattered them on the floor.

“Tsuzutsuk, it looks like you were attacked by a hawk or a kestrel.”

“I think I should take him to the hospital. People get hurt when they get hurt, but how sick are those guys who can’t speak?”

“They seem to know that Mr. Hooni is a good person. I see you don’t run away like this.”

“I need to get some of their cages from the car.”

I didn’t have a cage to keep them right now, so I had to ask Cathy.

When I opened Musong’s door, it was Cathy who had already transformed into a large cage, as if she had read my mind.

“Thank you, Cathy.”

＜no＞

With a happy heart, I entered the coffee shop with a cage to keep them in.

Beom-gyun and his wife are surprised to see the cage.

“Where did you get such a big cage…”

‘Hmm.. What do you mean?’

I can’t find an excuse and I hesitate to answer…

“Looks like a doggy cage.. Can’t we put the chewing gum to sleep in a coffee shop today? Close the door and put a blanket over your lap and you will sleep well.”

I’m so grateful…

“There is a futon inside the roof as well. Thank you for caring though. By the way, did these guys forget all this?”

The terrace deck is full of chestnut shells they forgot.

“They must have been very hungry.. What do they have to eat on the island?”

“You’re a jerk.”

“Looks like he’s not a baby…”

＜The big one is the male and the smaller one is the female＞

“They’re a couple, these guys.”

“Then, this is Kkansuni.”

The names of the guys were decided with Beom-kyun’s sense.

“hahahahaha, Kkandoli takes great care of Kkansuni. Even just bringing an injured child to me.”

These guys didn’t run away as if they were full, and they were climbing up on my shoulders before I knew it.

“Jwacheongsol or Woocheongsol?”

“ha ha ha.”

Not to be outdone by this, Cloud also came up, and Doongdoongi is looking at it from below with envious eyes.

I said as I hugged Doongdoongi and went inside.

“I have to go in and run second.”

“It’s good.”

“Now give me the plan, too.”

“Maybe?”

[Great collaboration with jazz and craft beer! Homemade Jazz Festival!]

On the first page, Shin Hye-ji shows a plan with the log line and title of the festival written on the face of a famous jazz singer and a beer glass full of bubbles that gives a refreshing feeling.

“oh! It’s good. Jazz and craft beer.”

Apparently, it was a festival where you could watch a jazz performance while eating craft beer made with barley, a local specialty of Unsan.

Above all, the collaboration between local specialties and classy music seemed to give a novel feeling.

I went through about 30 or so pages of the PPT-type planning document and looked at it carefully.

As a public official in charge of cultural events, I have seen many proposals over the years, but such neat proposals are rare.

The number of safety guards at the event venue, location of beer ports, layout of operating booths and flea market booths, and response to traffic conditions.

What to do when it rains, the state and condition of the waiting room of the performers, and most importantly, what to do when there are more participants than expected, the layout of craft beer participating companies, operating hours and promotion methods, and detailed budgets.

‘It’s quite a thing. I don’t think I’ve done it once or twice!’

“Are you okay? If this plan is followed, I think it will become a representative festival that promotes the region with a very neat event.”

“yes..”

Shin Hye-ji nodded her head with a short answer.

“Look. It’s not your fault, the problem is with the person in charge of the festival. The plan is perfect. Don’t beat yourself up.”

“hmm···.”

Shin Hye-ji immediately brings out another copy of the plan in front of me.

“??”

“I’m really frustrated because the client told me to give orders to other companies.”

“is it so?”

Unable to hide her absurdity, she began to turn over the plan that Shin Hye-ji had given her.

The plans of other companies, from the first page, were unrefined and entangled in formalities.

I covered the proposal that was nothing more than a piece of paper that was not worth looking at.

I asked Shin Hye-ji in a situation where I was so full of words.

“How many teams are in the bidding competition?”

“There are a total of 3 teams including our fresh project, but I think the person in charge is planning to hand it over to the blue project.”

“The blue planning budget is bigger. What kind of craft beer festival costs 200 million won. Fresh projects are worth less than 100 million including jazz singers..”

“The unit price is low, so I don’t trust it any more.”

“Nonsense. I don’t think that’s what a public official who needs to save on taxes should do.”

My head was pounding with deja vu.

How much trouble I had to go through because of my boss who was asking for hospitality and giving me back money.

So I hit it though.

Obviously, delaying decisions like this, taking time, and unspoken pressure is probably not in the same vein.

I think I understand Shin Hye-ji’s troubles.

“When is the next meeting?”

“Three days later.”

“If you don’t mind, introduce me as an employee and meet with me.”

#

the next morning.

I went out on the first boat and stopped at the veterinary hospital in Unsan City to show Kandori and Kkansuni.

When I raised the cage, which was larger than expected, the doctor stared at me in surprise and opened his mouth.

“Are you a member of the Animal Rescue Society?”

“Oh, no. I met them by chance while on a trip to the Ugunsan Islands.

“Ah, these guys are very wary of people.

Pay attention to them, not me.

“This is Kkandol, and this is Kkansuni..”

“Yes, yes. Oh, it looks like Kansuni fell while being attacked by a hawk. Let’s see, let’s see.”

“Should I take an X-ray? You seem to be uncomfortable with your legs.”

Fortunately, the leg was not fractured.
