Chapter 112 – Chapter 112

At first, I was going to visit the bookstore.
Today is the day that the ‘Nobel Bookstore’, a large bookstore that contains my memories, is not open. I wonder if there were days off at the bookstore, but I thought it might be because these days, 5 days a week have become natural.
Above all, it is because the number of people who visit bookstores and buy books directly offline like before has decreased overwhelmingly.

“Anyway, it was resolved really quietly.”

What happened at Home Minus.
To be honest, it was a topic that anyone could see, but when I search anywhere on social media, let alone goggles, nothing related to it comes up.
Looking at this, I could see how strong Valentia’s power was. At the same time, I thought that the media in this country could be controlled somehow.
No matter how much SNS has developed greatly.

[Mobilize gangsters to swallow small and medium-sized marts… 3 business owners commit suicide]
[A group of thugs who stole money by targeting only children who came to the mart, the amount of damage alone was 20 million won.]

If you search for mart and gangsters, only articles about things that happened almost 10 years ago come up, but there was no word about us anywhere.

“Oong, tongue. There are a lot of kids over there.”
“We are going over there today too.”

[Strawberry Stationary]

In the neighborhood where I lived, they didn’t open the door after they stopped going to school on Saturdays, but maybe it’s because there are some kids around here.
The stationery store was open on Saturday as well, and there were more children than expected.

“Ugyaaaaagh!”

Miho, who moved a little closer and carefully inspected the stationery and the children, was started with a scream that made even a chimpanzee cry.

“Tongue, tongue…”
“Why?”

I picked Noah up and held him tightly in my arms.
Then, Miho expressed his intention by using his whole body.

“Hey, look over there. There is an arcade machine that is smaller than the one I saw at the arcade and bigger than the game machine Miho uses!”
“Ah, that’s right.”

It’s a real memory.

A small game console placed in front of a stationery store that can only be played while squatting. Also, a lottery game where you can roll a soccer ball with your feet and draw it, and finally, a dangerous coin gambling that you learn from childhood through scissors, rocks, and paper.

‘In the past, there were people who were actually at home with that game console.’

Kids with home consoles like Glass Slug and Elephant Brothers always used to play free games at home with friends.
However, it was a pity that there were no sweets in the house.

“Oooooh! Mi-Miho wants to try it too.”
“You can’t do it. You can exchange it for coins. My dad will give me bills later, so I asked the stationery owner to exchange them for coins.”
“Mi, Miho… Even if you get stuck there, you won’t be beaten, right?”

Get beaten up
Not sure.
Because I also got beaten several times when I played fighting games in the arcade. My older brothers, who had a bad temper, even threw chairs at me.
Even if it wasn’t that, I had to be careful because there were things like going out through the back door of the arcade.

“If someone tries to hit you…”
“If there is?”
“Dad will beat that child instead.”
“Ohh…”

Miho took turns looking at me and the children who were sitting far away and screaming loudly, then spat out a small word.

“Child Abuse.”
“… What are you talking about, look at me.”

This youngster is already using the Gabulgi.

“Still, I knew someone would protect Miho! I’ll try my best, Miho! We promised to walk forward!”
“Jang Ha…”
“So, give me money.”
“…”

I obediently took out a thousand won bill from my wallet and put it in Miho’s hand. And she walked past her children into the stationery with her.

“Hey, did you just see the kids?”
“Hair color is awesome, damn it.”
“I am a foreigner.”

Where else are you talking about?
Wow, I really feel the generation gap. In between, the kids look at us and gossip, but I can’t understand a third of them.

“Mistress, pay for the week! Fuck Rome!”
“Yeah, it’s all over! Are you weak? Are you pissed off? Do you get hacked? Are you shaking?”
“You bastard! Oh, what a fuck!”

Noah flinches at the voice he hears outside and digs deeper into my arms.
But, to be honest, I was also a little appalled.
The kids outside, no matter how you look at it, are now elementary school kids. What are you swearing at so badly? I think I’m going to kill a real person.
And I don’t know what you’re talking about either.

‘Wouldn’t my daughters be like that later?’

Glance.

‘At least Noah will be fine.’

However, Miho is not at ease.
If it were him, he would definitely be the same as those kids as soon as he came home from school, threw his bag and played games alone.

‘Let’s do some early education before entering the second semester.’

As I muttered to myself, Miho was holding a 1,000-won note in the stationery over there… I approach my grandmother who is watching TV.

“Wrinkles are wrinkled… Huh!”

Hurry up!

I immediately ran over and covered Miho’s mouth. Where else did this come from?

“Kyaaaaagh! Tonnu, why is that?”

It’s because we use the word wrinklely human.

“You should call me Grandma. And when I was dizzy, I usually just skipped it. But still, be respectful to those who are this old, respectful.”
“Ugh, but this isn’t Miho’s grandma.”
“Anyway, Grandma is Grandma. Okay?”
“Okay. Granny, Miho Play games outside over there. Can you do it with this?”

At Miho’s question, the grandmother gave a small smile, and then she opened the lid of the candy box, took out 10 100 won bills from it, and exchanged them for Miho.

“It’s 200 won per game.”
“Lee Baek-eon?”
“You have to put in two of them, so you can have a fight. A lot of kids ask, but 100 won is not enough.”
“Ohhh, okay! It sucks.”

Miho, who had so many coins that it was difficult to handle with one palm, soon ran to the arcade machine holding them with both hands.
The guy who was scared of getting beaten up a little while ago runs away casually when he says he can play games.

「Charleur.」

He even puts the coin on the game machine casually and looks at the kids.
An empty seat appeared just in time, and the kid who had just been cursing and playing games tapped Miho on the shoulder and said,

“Hey, no hey, do it. Okay?”

Fuck, oh my god
What kind of elementary school students use English?

“Really? Can you do Miho too?”
“What. He knows how to speak Korean. I’m a foreigner, but I speak Korean well. But I can’t speak. Well, you can do that because you are a foreigner. Do you know how to play this game? “
“No, I don’t know. But Miho, you have this.”

At the same time, he holds out the coin placed on the arcade machine.
The kids who saw it laughed, and soon took out two coins and put them in the arcade machine.

“Click, click, click!”
“Teolling!”

[Get ready for the next battle.]

“Then the game has begun. And if you put money in, the snacks come out here.”
“Ohh, steamy!”

Contrary to what I was afraid of, Miho got along better with the kids than I thought. Perhaps the experience of going to Seo Mi-hye’s house to play and meeting Min-soo and Yoon-soo seemed to be helpful.

“Wow, sweets!”

Miho salivated for a while at the junk food protruding from under the arcade machine, and then gave it to the kids around her little by little.

“Shall we eat this together?”

When I saw that, I was a little surprised.
Even if a child who can be said to be the best in the world in terms of food cravings is junk food, he would give it to others.

“Thank you. But my mother said you shouldn’t carelessly accept anything given to you by someone you don’t know.”
“Yes, my mother too. And don’t eat too much junk food. It’s not good for the body. Still, I didn’t refuse the present, so I’ll enjoy it.”

[Kids these days are really smart.]

So… When I was young, I couldn’t remember much even if I picked up words like that.
I didn’t even know English at first.
Let’s say you know English at best, game cheats?

“Originally, I said that bribes are important to buy Injjaeng comfortably.”

… I really should ban you tube.

The already nasty elf was turning into an even more nasty kid. By the way, seeing the kids swearing earlier, I wonder if he’s angry at Miho too.

“Sister, let’s watch the game for a bit, shall we?”
“Yes, Dad. Noah is fine. I’m happy just being with my dad like this.”

Even if I was worried about Miho, I couldn’t bear to let Noah see the stationery.
I had no choice but to watch from behind.

Yeah fuck
An adult like me is watching behind me, so I can’t help but swear in an arrogant way.

「Tadadadak, tadak!」

“Five…”

I admired Miho’s hand movements in his.
Still, wouldn’t it be useless to buy an arcade and even a game console to play games? The hand movements that press levers and buttons are truly an art.

[You lose]
[Perfect]

“Bitch, heeing…”

Curiously, despite playing so hard, why did two out of three matches end in perfect defeat?
Even the winner muttered as if he was embarrassed about something.
One thing’s for sure, Miho was so weak that it seemed like he wouldn’t be able to curse at the other person.

“Hey, come in another kid. He’s fucking weak.”
“Miho, you still have more money!”
“… You’re so weak it’s no fun And there are kids waiting behind you. If you don’t win, you have to wait for your next turn. That’s the town rule here.”
“Ugh!”

Miho, who got up from her seat with an empty wind, took her own coins and said, “It’s precious.”

“That game is not fun at all.”
“…”

I, who had been watching him, and the kids gathered around the arcade machine silently shut their mouths as they saw Miho.
Perhaps the thoughts in your head are the same.

‘It’s childish, bitch.’

Meanwhile, the game is over.
I took Miho with me for a while and went back into the stationery. This time, I wanted to buy Noah something he wanted.

“Noah, do you have anything you want?”
“No, Noah is me, that…”

Looking for something, I saw Noah pointing, and I saw an avatar sticker for children called Sticker Princess Dress Up.
Well, you can attach it somewhere to change clothes, and that’s it…
Even when I was a kid, it was a toy that was popular with girls.

‘If a guy bought something like that, he’d spread the word right away at school and get teased.’

It’s like that even today

“Grandma, I’ll buy everything here.”
“No, then other kids won’t be able to buy it. Buy half, half.”
“Oh, then I’ll live only half of it.”

I didn’t think of that.
Seeing this, I was still a very selfish person.

“Oh, and this and this, please.”

As I pointed to a set of soccer balls, basketballs, and baseballs, the grandmother, the owner of the stationery store, looked at Miho and Noah for a moment, then shook her head.

“No, it’s for boys. Girls can get hurt playing with it.”

I was surprised to hear that he was hurt.

“Then what about the girls?”
“This and this. And if you want to play baseball, a lot of people usually buy it.”

I looked it up because I wanted something, and it was a children’s baseball set made of a large bouncy ball and a sponge. When I compared the Tang Tang Ball with a soccer ball for children, I thought that the Tang Tang Ball was definitely better at first.

‘Even the soccer balls used by children are quite hard.’

I think that if something like this hits the wrong stomach or face, it will be a big problem.

“Then give me this.”
“Yeah, girls should play around a bit when they’re young, too.”
“I’m going to do that anyway.”
“They are so cute.”
“Haha, thank you. I think so. Can I have a card?”

At my question, the grandmother held out her palm her.

“Cash.”

This is an old stationery store.
Fortunately, it was possible to calculate it with just one 50,000 won bill.

“Now then, let’s go to the playground of the nearby elementary school… What is it, boy nope noah Where have you gone?”
“Your sister? My sister is over there.”

A little while ago, the boy who had been looking at junk food next to me had disappeared. When I asked, I heard Kim Mi-ho and the excited children outside.

“Hey! Stop here! It’s already 16 times! Even if you subtract it now, it’s a 16-fold gain. That means 16 100-won medals will come out.”
“Nope! Miho is the strongest steamer! I’ll try the next one too!”
“You fool, that’s greed!”
“I can’t even stay! Miho’s choice is to hand over her fist her!”

[Bo, lost.]

“Ugyaaaaagh!”

Even if it was the last 100 won just now, Miho looked at her empty palm her for a moment and then very casually walked up to me and said.

“Dad, Miho Don Juttee.”

Are you the father only at this time?

“… Now, let’s go to the playground and do some exercise?”
“Come on, I’ll pay you back. Borrow it or give it to me. Next time you can definitely pick it up.”
