200 – [3] It’s strange. (Start editing)
#200
* * *
When I opened my eyes, it was Saturday.
Of course, just a little while ago, I was just rolling around at home and resting well.
Somehow, everything changed.
It was truly a tragic event, worthy of cursing the God of Time.
It’s painful, but what can you do?
Still, it was human destiny to live.
I stood up with my creaking body.
Then, I raised the black curtains that covered the window.
“Ah…… Seed… ….”
Shooaaa─
Then, the best specialty in Puerto Rico.
It was raining like crazy.
The sight of the glass hitting the window violently made me open the window.
As I headed to the veranda where the rain was pouring down, I felt a strong wind blowing.

The situation is such that even normal passage is difficult.
Even as a hunter, it was very difficult to endure and go out in this weather.
“Save people!!!”
“Keeek!!!”
“Water Control—Puhak!”
I could see that several courageous cadets were rolling around on the street right now.
This happened because the weight did not change even though the physical and magical abilities were excellent.
“Should I call Su-ah?”
If I went on like this, I would end up in the same situation as them.
I picked up my phone because I needed to postpone it.
– “$!$@%#$%$#@%#%#@$”
“Yes? Yes… ….”
And it didn’t take long before I started sighing.
It was none other than Su-ah’s sister asking her to eat out.
It doesn’t have to be today.
The schedule is already set, so other days will be difficult.
So make sure to come out today.
For your information, I told him not to worry because he would take me to the front of the house.
“I am dead.”
Now all that’s left is to enjoy a meal in the rain in style.
I couldn’t die alone, so I thought about taking a thousand birds with me.
Of course, it was such a big nuisance that it was abandoned.
Honestly, I never should have taken a thousand birds, considering they would be so damned.
– “No! Why do you look so good today! “I, Cheonma-ri, will pour a big glass of wine for Su-ah!”
– “Now~ Let’s drink it~ Let’s go~ I’ll give you another drink! No, I’ll pour you two larger glasses of Cheonma Bombju!”
– “Hey Jeomsoy! Bring some more snacks! What? You ran out of everything? “Do you want to be the owner?!”
– “Horororolok, gosh—”
– “What? Let’s go home soon?! Huh! “When I was a teenager, you dragged me around and shot me here and there, but now that I’m at the academy, I feel like I’m dead!”
– “In the 3rd round, we go to a pub, in the 4th round, we go to a ramen restaurant, in the 5th round, we go to a bar again, in the 6th round, we rent an entire club, and in the 7th round, we go to a karaoke bar!!!”
The future looks good.
The word eating out seemed to shout go-to-hell to me.
Finally, I left the room with a decision.
Even if she didn’t ask Cheonma-ri to accompany her, she had to at least tell her where she was going.
So I headed to the room of a thousand birds…… In fact, other than the clothes lying around, there was no trace of anyone.
Just when I was wondering where I was going, I heard a strange sound coming from a blind spot in the living room that I couldn’t see from the second floor.
I went down to the living room to find the epicenter.
Then, I saw a thousand birds waving their hands in the air while wearing a VR device.
“Ihihi! Die! Die!”
Bungzbungz.
I am the eldest daughter.
She turns 20 this year.
It seemed as if vacation had begun and it was as if they were happy.
I didn’t think there was any need for her to worry if I left her alone.
She still needed to say that she was coming and going.
She immediately sat down in her place and touched the shoulder of a thousand people who were repeatedly standing up.
“?! Who are you?! Surely he’s not a communist assassin who came to nationalize my small and precious assets?!”
“It’s me, you idiot.”
Anyway, I told him roughly.
Cheonma-ri waved her hand as if it was no big deal.
“Wait a minute, I think I’ll be hungry in the evening. “I’d like to bring some delicious food or takeout for my wife to eat while I’m on my way.”
“Are you hitting this? Roll it?”
Actually, what was being said was not that big of a deal.

Time passed again.
Evening came, and she dressed appropriately and waited for Sister Su-ah in front of her house.
“When will it come…” … “Oh, is that it?”
A car stopped in front of the house.
A truck without any special features showed whose taste was reflected.
The window went down.
Then Suna, wearing a light shirt, appeared.
“Get on quickly!”
I boarded right away.
The door closed and the window went up.
“Hey, isn’t it raining a lot?”
“Uh, yes…” ….”
“First, wipe yourself with a towel here.”
The car started moving again.
I thought I was heading downtown, but ironically, I didn’t head that way.
Borderline between downtown and outskirts.
I took a large tour of an area that was vague but where many ordinary people lived.
“…… ? “Where are you going, sister?”
“Restaurant.”
There were actually good restaurants in the city.
Rather, this area was famous for not having any good restaurants.
However, Su-ah continued to move through her neon.
At one point, she stopped the car on one side of the road.
She pulled the doorknob to see if he had arrived, but he held her hand and told her not to do so.
Instead, he pointed to a small apartment located between disorderly buildings visible from the window.
This is a building that clearly shows its age, and its metal decorations and angled windows stand out.
Also, the window, which was made of transparent glass, gave off a slightly cloudy light, which made it impossible to see the inside from the outside.
However, the windows of some of the houses on some floors were broken, so it seemed possible to see inside.
When I looked at the place, pieces of broken glass slowly illuminated the inside.
“Ah.”
It was a miserable interior.
It seemed to reflect the chaos and turbulence of the city center.
On the other hand, it seemed to show a world where the hope and despair of the residents coexist.
The scratches and graffiti you see everywhere are by-products.
But that doesn’t mean it was a bad house.
Because other houses around were dying due to commercialization and indifference.
The metal wall, which had traces of time, was cracking and dying, with some of the material missing.
Because there was not enough space between buildings, the scenery itself was extremely desolate.
In the meantime, something like a blue line was drawn between the alleys.
The border with neighbors gave me an idea at once of what kind of place this place was.
“This is where I live.”
“Are you here?!”
It was the worst.
I never imagined that Su-ah would live in a place like this.
Why do people with all the money in the world live in places like this?
I looked at her with her pale face.
“Because the price of the house is so expensive. “There was nowhere else to live but here.”
“Oh my…….”
The cadets managed to get a house at a low price, but it seems that faculty members like Su-ah were unable to do so.
I was speechless at the shocking reality.
“Still, it’s a place where you can live and earn a decent salary. “You don’t have to worry too much.”
“… ….”
I couldn’t even say anything.
I looked up at the apartment in a daze, feeling like I was suffocating.
Sister Su-ah turned off the engine of her car, got out, and took out her umbrella from the backseat.
She wrote one for herself and handed the other to me.
“I think I’ll be drinking anyway. “Let’s leave the car here.”
“Yes… ….”
I walked through the rain, which was heavier than before.
However, just because she walked away, her gaze did not disappear anywhere.
I couldn’t take my eyes off the apartment where the scars of the city were carved until I was completely out of sight.
Sister Su-a began to explain the surrounding buildings, whether or not she was aware of her mixed emotions.
“The building you see over there is Moditex Office Supplies. “It looks like a place that just sells general office supplies, but it also sells magic-related office supplies and various scrolls.”
“The potato chip sign you see over there is for a place called Neo Snack. It’s a fast food restaurant that is widespread in the United States…… “Maybe it wasn’t my taste, but it didn’t taste that good.”
“Steambake Cafe. Everything is delicious except the coffee. “It’s perfect to go there and drink coffee when you fall asleep after work.”
“Do you see the robot soliciting customers? There’s a restaurant called Lobosushi, and although it looks like a franchise, it’s quite delicious. However, the restaurant I’m headed to now is a different restaurant than that one. “Let’s go there together next time.”
It had only been three or four months since I came here, but it seemed like I had already become a native.
It was like an adaptability I had gained after much struggle, so I held back even though the words flowed out.
Because Su-ah seemed to be enjoying the moment.
She looked happy, probably because she went out with her younger brother.
I didn’t want to break the good mood.
I just responded and continued to follow him.
How long did it take to walk like that?
Soo-ah stopped in front of a store.
– Flame Bada (Korean food restaurant)
A Korean restaurant discovered a thousand miles away.
However, the exterior was unique for a Korean restaurant.
“It looks like a Chinese restaurant from the outside.”
It feels like something out of a martial arts world.
Even though we tried to cover it up with modern materials, there was a strangely unique Chinese sensibility that leaked out.
It was strange, but I brushed it off, thinking it could be something.
There is a possibility that the interior design people made a mistake and it ended up like this.
“…… What?”
As I entered with Su-ah, I felt a Chineseness that I had no intention of hiding.
Judging by the two-story structure and the material of the railings, it seemed like the perfect shape for drunken warriors to destroy.
“The view over there is nice. “Sian, let’s go and sit over there.”
Is this correct?
When I saw the missing screw, I felt anxious that it wouldn’t taste good.
“Don’t just stand there blankly. “Sit down first.”
“Yes? “Oh, yes.”
After I sat down, I checked the menu.
And at that point, the anxiety deepened even more.

– Anago (sea eel) rice bowl
– Hitsumabushi
– Eel intestine stew
– Fried eel bones

– Seafood (Kaisen) Rice Bowl
What is it?
Isn’t this a Korean food restaurant?
Why does it seem like there are only so many Japanese dishes?
Even among Japanese dishes, it felt like ‘eel dish’ was the most popular dish.
There was no consistency.
The only restaurant that was so inconsistent was the one I went to with a thousand people thinking it was a good restaurant, but ended up getting screwed.
Because of this, I suspected that it might be a similar case this time.
Although there were quite a few customers, it was an area worthy of suspicion.
“Sian, so what do you want to eat?”
A Korean restaurant without Korean food.
What on earth did Su-ah intend to bring me to a place like this?
