Chapter 466 – Lucius and Evangeline Go to Earth (1)
A bell rang at the convenience store door. She said that a guest was coming. The clerk came out with a sigh while tidying up the counter. She peeked her head out of the checkout counter and looked at who had come. He begged it wasn’t just the construction workers in the building next door. It was because they came with a lot of cement and dirt on their toes.
“Welcome.”
The clerk opened his eyes wide and looked at the two people entering the convenience store. Because he was a foreigner. She is a blonde, red-eyed young man and a woman with long black hair and purple eyes sparkling like jewels.
At first glance, two exotic-looking people opened the door of the convenience store and came in. The clerk’s eyes were drawn to the school uniform the woman was wearing. It was because it was a uniform from a girls’ high school that was a little far from here. Is she like an exchange student? Her clerk wanted to talk to her at least.
“Oh, um…”
But before the clerk could talk to Evangeline, Lucius stopped in front of the counter and spoke to the clerk.
“Where is the boss?”
“Yes?”
“Where is the boss?”
The Korean words that came out of Lucius’ mouth made him feel bewildered for a while, and the clerk, who shrank from his bloody expression his, took up his phone in surprise. And he said
“Oh that… Are you an acquaintance of the boss?”
“Uh. Walk quickly and call.”
Lucius waved his hand as if it was too much trouble to explain the details of the relationship. The clerk’s hand his became more urgent. Meanwhile, Evangeline was leisurely looking around her shop with her arms crossed. There were many new items in the convenience store that I hadn’t seen in a long time. Evangeline saw one of her frozen treats her and she ran to Lucius with a big smile.
“Brother, brother, look at this. Did something like this come out today? I never thought of this when I was in the hospital.”
What she was holding was one of those ready-to-eat foods that warmed up on its own without the need for heat. Lucius looked around at it and smiled.
“It was there when I was in the army, but what?”
“Wow, oppa’s military life was so comfortable.”
“This fucking bitch.”
Lucius trembled as he remembered his nightmare military life. The clerk was a little confused as he listened to the brother and sister’s conversation. Are these people Korean? Korean was too fluent, gestures were extremely Korean, and conversations were indigenous. During the beep, Evangeline held out some ready-to-eat food and ice cream in front of her clerk.
“Brother, this is a new flavor. I want to eat this, and I want to eat this too.”
“Buy everything. Buy all do we have no money what is missing You should try eating it at this time. Can’t you call the boss?”
Lucius took out his wallet and asked the clerk again. The clerk looked at the cell phone that only beeped while taking a series of barcodes. Then he nodded her head and said.
“Yes. He must be busy right now.”
“Isn’t it shift time soon? You should come now.”
“Yes?”
“Then, when will the boss come here? I know the boss does it in the afternoon.”
“Ah yes. I have a shift at 3 o’clock, so you’ll have to wait for about an hour. I sent you a KakaoTalk message, so you will be in touch.”
“I know. Then, please calculate this for now.”
Said the clerk.
“So, do you live in Korea?”
The clerk’s eyes were on Evangeline, but she was only looking at the ice cream. Lucius also did not answer the employee’s question. The clerk prepared an envelope while scratching the back of his head with a puzzled face.
“Yes. It is 16,400 won.”
Lucius handed over 20,000 won and said.
“Take your change.”
The clerk accepted the 20,000 won and nodded. 3,600 won. It was money that could be used to buy discarded lunch boxes. For some reason, the clerk laughed in a good mood.
Asked Lucius as he left the store door.
“Did I look like someone who just spent some money?”
“Sick.”
Evangeline shook her head and cast a pitiful glance at her. Lucius held out the tteokbokki, ignoring Evangeline’s contempt her.
“Go and make some tteokbokki.”
“Can I just turn this whole?”
“It is written there. Unwrap and pour sauce. 3 minutes and 30 seconds.”
“Okay.”
Let Evangeline go back into her shop. Lucius unwrapped the sundae. After reading the product description, I needed water. As Evangeline turns on her microwave and returns. Lucius held out a 1,000 won bill and said.
“Hey, go get some water. It needs water.”
Evangeline snorted at her and snapped her fingers. Water droplets floated in the air. Lucius was amazed at the cloud-like shape and tapped it with her finger.
“Why are you sticking your finger in the drinking water?”
“I will use it when boiling. They say it needs water to explode the heat.”
“Okay?”
Lucius poured the water that had floated into the air into an empty container and then put the heating agent in it. Seeing the water boil in an instant, Evangeline clapped her hands and said,
“Five! Boiling! It boils!”
Lucius giggled at Evangeline’s reaction to her. Place the soondae on top of the boiling container and cover. Kim was blooming.
Ice cream, tteokbokki, and sundae. And ice cream. The two asked for ice cream one by one. The place was a parasol in front of a convenience store. Evangeline frequently checked over her window to see if the tteokbokki was cooking well. Lucius said.
“I have an hour left, what should I do?”
“Let’s go to the karaoke. I wanted to go to karaoke.”
“Once I finish eating, I can go back for an hour. Then only the boss bastard will be alone.”
“I know.”
I heard the microwave completion sound. Even through her thick glass windows of her, Evangeline could hear it clearly. Let’s beckon into the air. The cooked tteokbokki fell in front of the two of them. Evangeline stirred the sauce-soaked tteokbokki with wooden chopsticks and took another bite of ice cream.
“Do you like it?”
“Who doesn’t like sweet pumpkin ice cream?”
“I do not know.”
Evangeline giggled at Lucius’ words and tossed a tteokbokki. Then, as her body trembled, she gasped for breath. Lucius giggled as she nodded her head and closed her eyes, as if it was this taste after all. Just in time, they also opened the sundae that was ready. Lucius picked up a sundae, dipped it in the tteokbokki sauce, and popped it into his mouth her.
“Oh, fuck. This is it Do you have any soju?”
“Brother, you don’t have a resident registration card.”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I said I was a foreigner?”
“Shall we go and try it?”
“Done. Do I have to eat that much?”
Lucius said that and took another bite of the tteokbokki. I felt that the world has improved a lot. Or did the world remain the same, but he became better for himself?
Lucius looked at Evangeline in silence. She was mindlessly eating tteokbokki. Originally, I was going to sit down at this convenience store and talk a lot. Here, she wanted to show her condescension to her, saying, Do you know how hard she worked to pay the hospital bills? I wanted to tell you how delicious Baekban House in the alley around here is. I wanted to tell you how bad the truths I encountered around here were and what I was thinking there.
“Is it delicious?”
“Yes.”
However, when I saw her younger brother enjoying the tteokbokki like a spoiled child, I immediately thought of such a story. Lucius just kept silent. With a blank expression on his face, he stared at the street lamp at the crossroads. He always used to climb this hill after work.
The boss who came to shift used to come down this road. The boss always trudged down the street with an expression as if he was going to die because he did not want to work. I saw a familiar silhouette at the end of the hill. A protruding belly and a hunched back like a pregnant woman. And I saw both fists clenched as if they were about to beat a person.
“Uh, huh?”
“Why is that, brother?”
Was the boss Lucius got up from his seat in embarrassment. The boss was walking into the convenience store, gritting his teeth, with an angry look on his face. He didn’t feel Lucius’ gaze staring at him. He said, opening the door so violently that the bell rang out with a grotesque note.
“This bastard, what is that lunchbox for you? What are you eating your lunch box for? Isn’t it time to work? What did I tell you not to eat after lunch? Have you finished cleaning the shelves?”
“Ah, that… Logistics came in at lunchtime…”
“Then you must starve. Uh? When I was there, there was no boss who made me work like this and made me eat, so there was no such thing as a lunch break. If you gave me a lunch break, would I have finished the work in advance then, huh? How can we eat quietly and out of sight of the guests? If you eat at the counter without appetite, who will come? Uh?”
“No, that…”
“Are you trashing that? Didn’t I tell you to pay to eat when I eat scraps? Did you film that?”
“Ah yes…”
“I will check later. If you didn’t pay for it, I’d pay for it today, so I know that. And, where are the guests? Someone came to see me.”
A dark voice came from behind the president’s back.
“Fuck me.”
The boss was started and turned his head away. Lucius grabbed the boss by the collar and dragged him into the warehouse. The employee jumped to his knees in amazement, and the boss threw his arms around and shouted.
“Fuck! You! What are you! Hey you kid! What are you! Hey! Call the police! Call the police!”
“Ah, that, that… !”
Before the clerk could call the police, Evangeline spread her hands. When the clerk made eye contact with Evangeline, she rolled her eyes and passed out. The boss became contemplative and screamed.
“Aaaaagh! I die! This sheep is killing me!”
Lucius threw the boss on the floor without a word. The president, who was sprawled on the floor, rolled and screamed.
“Gosh! Aigoo! You, what are you…!”
And before the boss could get back up and fight back, Lucius trampled on the president’s knee. His legs were twisted at bizarre angles, and the president’s face went white. He couldn’t even scream and spread his hands with his mouth wide open. Lucius did the same with the other foot, crushing his leg.
“Quaaaaagh! Wow! Aaaaagh!”
The boss started going crazy. Lucius grabbed the president’s arm and began to bend it into a boomerang shape. The fallen boss went mad, shaking his limbs like an octopus. When viewed from above, it was shaped like the character 卍.
Lucius grabbed his limbs again, locked them in place, and shouted a heel.
“Aww…! Sigh… !”
The boss rolled his eyes and shuddered at him. The president’s limbs were now shattered and stuck together, unable to fully move. He just transformed into an octopus-like being with four pieces of flesh attached to his limbs. Lucius stood up from his seat with a refreshing expression and said.
“It’s not worth killing. Little brother erase the memory Delete the CCTV too.”
“OK.”
****
The convenience store bell rang. It meant that guests were leaving. I heard the conversation between Doran Doran and the brother and sister.
“Shall we go to karaoke?”
“Yes. Let’s go to coin karaoke. I forgot all the songs.”
“Okay. Okay.”
