Producer Who Gets Eaten After 100 Days

Persuasion (3)

Around the time Do Ji-hyuk was heading to Jinseo-won’s house.

Arin’s house.

“I ate well.”

“me too. It seems like it’s been a long time since I’ve had a good meal.”

“hehehe… . Glad it was delicious!”

Lim Arin, who invited Seol Joo-hee and Hong Yu-ra to serve dinner by hand, secretly brought out wine and had a simple drinking party.

“Well… . It smells good.”

“Well, that’s fine.”

“There are a lot of them, so take it easy… !”

Hong Yu-ra and Seol Joo-hee, who were under stress from the recently increased schedule and various other things, naturally fell into alcohol… .

“… Whoo… . I’m very tired today… .”

“Are you drunk already? Is Seol Joo-hee getting too drunk?”

“Tell me, cover your thighs. It was so red, I thought it was your hair.”

Suddenly, both of them were so drunk that their eyes opened slightly.

Actually, they weren’t the only ones to get drunk with a bottle of wine or two… .

Whatever the case, I got drunk quickly today.

“Uh… . Guys… !”

At that time, Arin Lim, alone with a normal face, spoke to the two of them.

“me… , I have something to say!”

“What to say?”

“… What?”

Arin Lim put down her glass as if she had made up her mind to do something, and looked at Hong Yu-ra and Seol Joo-hee in turn and talked.

“actually… . Jihyuk met a while ago.”

“Who are you meeting?”

“… really?”

Seol Joo-hee, who quickly becomes violent, and Hong Yu-ra, who shows a suspicious reaction.

Arin Lim told the story of how she met Do Ji-hyuk with a determined face.

He said he did not think badly of them even after being harmed.

He forgave himself and even comforted him.

A-rin Lim, who insists strongly with her bright eyes, was as blind as someone who has fallen into a pseudo-religion, and Seol Joo-hee and Hong Yu-ra were startled by the strange appearance of her.

“I don’t think Jihyuk would ever do that… ! That video was rigged!”

“… Are you crazy?”

“Arin… .”

“Really! If you meet Jihyuk too… !”

“Be in moderation, Lim Arin. Why are we meeting that scumbag?”

“Please Juhee… . you are being deceived… !”

“You are the one being deceived! What the hell did you hear from that bastard?”

Seol Joo-hee clearly thought that Do Ji-hyuk had said something to Lim A-rin.

Otherwise, she couldn’t have suddenly appeared like this.

“I can’t. You, don’t ever date that bastard.”

“… uh?”

“This is all because I’m thinking of you! What the hell did you do to do this?!”

“Jihyuk didn’t do anything… !”

“I didn’t do anything, what are you doing here? uh!?”

As the atmosphere between the two became increasingly harsh, Hong Yu-ra, who was silently observing the situation, hurriedly began to dry the two of them.

“Guys! Calm down for a second!”

In fact, Hong Yu-ra was skeptical in her heart.

It is a situation in which the video itself was questioned due to the contradictory circumstances and the behavior of Gok-il.

It wouldn’t be strange to doubt that Do Ji-hyuk is really trash.

However… .

Just to the point of being suspicious.

Hong Yu-ra believed ‘firmly’ that Do Ji-hyuk’s actions in the video were real.

Just like the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

When spring passes, summer comes,

After summer comes fall,

When the cold winter comes after autumn, like dry leaves falling.

It was taken for granted as ‘truth’.

“Both of you, stop talking about Do Ji-hyuk now!”

So Hong Yu-ra cut off the topic to prevent the two of them from fighting.

“I definitely said it. Don’t ever see that bastard.”

“Even if I regret later, I don’t know… !”

Seol Joo-hee and Lim A-rin added one last word to each other and barely stopped the fight.

“Do you think?”

I parked my car in the narrow alleyway and followed Jinseowon, looking up at the small villa where she stopped.

The walls of the villa, built with red bricks, were stained here and there… .

At first glance, it looked very old.

‘It looks like a pretty old building.’

Jinseowon’s house is the lowest floor among them.

It was a semi-basement room with no lights on the stairs going down.

“Excuse me.”

As I entered the house through the front door that didn’t even have a common door lock, I glanced around the house while Jinseowon turned on the light, and was slightly surprised at the miserable appearance of the house.

‘… I used to live here with my grandmother… ?’

The building itself was pretty good.

One bedroom in one small living room with bathroom.

It wasn’t very spacious, but it wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t live.

the problem is… .

It was not maintained at all, and no matter how you looked at it, it did not look like a house where people lived.

“… … .”

So let’s take a moment to look around the house while getting serious alone.

Sitting opposite Jin Seo-won with a small table in the living room, I started talking about recruitment in earnest.

“First of all, thank you so much for taking the time.”

“… yes.”

“Have you ever heard my story from your boss?”

She shook her head and answered instead.

I handed the business card I had prepared beforehand and calmly explained the explanation.

“I am the producer of the team Seoul City Hall, which is affiliated with the city of Seoul. It’s not a regular guild, it’s a team belonging to a real government agency. here… , see here, there is also an article about our team.”

Seowon Jin glanced down at the internet article on the phone, and I continued the conversation.

“I would like to have Seowon as our team’s main dealer. I have no doubt that Seowon-ssi’s abilities will surely create good synergy with our team.”

It started out as a compliment to her.

The next step is to appeal to the team.

“Recently, through an interview with Mayor Lee Sang-heum, the mayor of Seoul, I received full support. Thanks to this, we have achieved a system equivalent to that of a third-level team… .”

Then we talked about income.

“Even though it is a team that has just started, we will unconditionally match the minimum salary. Other team members signed contracts like that, and once the results start to come out, I plan to renew the contract with a higher salary than the industry standard. It’s not my money, so I don’t need to save it.”

After such a lengthy explanation, I slid the contract I had brought with her.

“This is our team contract. I also told the cafe owner, so you can check it out together and think about it.”

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won, still with her mouth shut, glances at the contract placed on the table.

I pondered for a moment, waiting for her answer.

‘Don’t you like it?’

I told her to think about it slowly, but it’s actually very tight.

If you do not register your team members by 6 o’clock the day after tomorrow, Team Seoul City Hall will disappear due to lack of team members.

I couldn’t force her to sign, so I had no choice but to wait for her heart to move.

‘Please accept… .’

How long has it been since Jin Seo-won stared at the contract?

Finally she lifted her head slightly and opened her mouth softly… .

“… I’m sorry. I don’t think I can.”

The answer I didn’t want to hear the most came back.

“… If it’s not rude, could you tell me why?”

Without giving up, I asked her why.

Then, Jin Seo-won looked at me and came up with a story unexpectedly.

“… Grandma hates it.”

“Grandma… Are you talking?”

It turns out that Jin Seo-won’s parents were quite a promising hunter couple.

However, both of them died in an accident at the gate, and it is said that Grandma had a negative perception of Hunter because of that… .

‘… yes?’

As I looked back at her situation, I felt a strange sense of incongruity once again.

Seo-won Jin refused to recruit because her grandmother told her not to do it.

If I hadn’t suggested it, I would have naturally led a life far from being a Hunter.

But how did you achieve S-Rank and become a Heavenly Demon?

‘… What will happen in the future?’

Feeling so uncomfortable, she thoughtfully shook her head for a moment, but this time she opened her mouth to convince her with another word.

“!”

An old memory flashed back to me.

It was filled with dust, old memories that I didn’t even know existed.

“… Seowon Mr. This is a different question, but how long have you known the boss?”

“… Sister?”

“Yes. The boss takes great care of Seowon, but at first I thought you two were sisters.”

Jin Seo-won, who was looking at me, replied that he and the president had been close since childhood… .

I was finally able to notice the cause of her transformation into a heavenly demon.

The woman president of a cafe who cared for Jin Seo-won like her own sister, is caught up in the second incident in the original novel and dies.

‘It was a really pitiful setting.’

The basis was in the original novel.

Unlike the first, in the second case, several gates are opened simultaneously across the country.

Among them, the largest gate is opened in Seoul, and smaller gates are opened in some cities… .

One of those cities was Chuncheon, Gangwon-do.

Even in the original novel, this story is a very brief description of the second incident.

If I couldn’t remember this and luckily took Jinseowon straight to Seoul… .

The female boss who was left alone must have died in an accident,

Jinseowon had a very high probability of becoming a heavenly demon as in the original novel.

‘I took ten years.’

With a sigh of relief in my heart, I let go of my heart, remembering the most important goal, resolving my mind, and making eye contact with Jinseowon.

“Seo Won. So how about this?”

“… ?”

“You only register your name on our team.”

“… What is my name?”

“That’s right.”

I told the truth about why I wanted to recruit Jin Seo-won.

The fact that there was a shortage of team members as Jung Soo-in left, and the team was in danger of disappearing in a few days.

It wasn’t something I had to say, but I had no choice but to show my sincerity.

“You only need to register your name, and you do not need to actually work as a hunter. Of course, you can visit the office at least once, but… . Maybe that’s all.”

Of course, I didn’t mean to simply ask her to borrow her name.

“1 million. If you lend me your name, I will give you 100 million as a reward.”

“… yes?”

The moment the money story came out, Jin Seo-won’s eyes, which had been indifferent, began to shake for the first time.

“I intend to give this purely at my own expense. Forward… . You only need to borrow the name for one month. If you change your mind in the middle, you can continue the activity as it is. Of course, we will also write separate contracts for each other.”

I had no intention of turning Jinseowon into a heavenly demon, nor did I intend to miss it as a hunter.

Therefore, the method that came out was to hold onto the relationship with her with money, which is the surest and most powerful means.

“Of course, there will also be a salary according to the annual salary… . Oh, I think you should only get paid less at the cafe. The IRS might tackle it. I will explain this to the cafe owner as well.”

“… uh… .”

Jin Seo-won rolls her eyes here and there as if embarrassed by the sudden suggestion.

After staring at her for a moment, I slowly turned my head and looked around the house.

Jinseowon has lived in poverty all this time.

This house proved him, and the furniture that shows the feeling of use was the clear proof.

No matter how in the future she becomes a bloodless and tearless angel, now she is simply a child of a poor family with a pitiful situation.

“It may be rude to say, but… . Grandma didn’t tell you to miss the chance, did you?”

Seduced by the temptation of money, Jin Seo-won involuntarily swallowed his saliva and looked at me softly… .

“… Uh, I’ll talk to you.”

I brought up the answer that I should talk to the lady boss of the cafe.

*

next day.

After getting enough room and board at a nearby hotel, I stopped by the cafe in Jinseowon once more and talked with the lady boss who was nothing but a guardian.

and.

“Let’s start with the contract right now.”

Fortunately, I got a positive response.
