Chapter 23 – Episode 23. Strange Woman. (One)
“Wow, look at the foreign car. It’s okay.”
“Aren’t you paying attention?”
“Oh, I’m sorry, sister.”
“Isn’t the car that the ferocious tiger is riding in better?”
“As expected, domestic cars are the best. And the best among them is Hyejin noona.”
“Then can you drive it faster?”
“Then it will start.”
As she tried to indulge in the pleasures of outdoor sex while gazing at such a large playground from the school roof, her pockets vibrated.
“What? Wait a minute sister A phone call came.”
It was Wonho. What is this baby?
– “Hey, where are you? Who is looking for you now?”
“Restroom. Who?”
– “Write. That’s how I miss training all the time and goof around and get fucked.”
Did you miss that much? Well, Hyejin noona who comes to school sometimes, and Hyuna, my 5-minute standby. Training was inevitable in order to enjoy a sex life with two people at school.
“Because it really hurts. So, who are you?”
-“I don’t know, but wearing sunglasses, a bit of a career woman feeling? He looks a bit young. According to my intuition, it must be an agent. Most of those atmospheres were agents.”
Are you finally here? Certainly I did well in the Golden Lion.
“Okay, thank you. I’ll hang up and go down hang up.”
– “Yes, pleasant.”
When I hung up her phone, Hyejin noona’s expression, who was listening to her, was grumpy.
“What? Are you going to finish it like this?”
“Hey, sister. It’s a matter of life. Now.”
“Still….”
“Uh huh. The boss is standing at a crossroads in his life right now, and you are the wife!”
“Ahaha, Maeng Tiger, are you crazy?”
… I was a little scared to see Hyejin noona, who was laughing and then suddenly straightening up.
“Anyway, did you hear the call? That’s all for today.”
“A. Yes, your sister should understand. Then in the evening?”
“I will report the situation and contact you.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
“By the way, where did you get the key to your rooftop? It’s always locked here.”
“I made it all before.”
Also, Hyejin’s older sister.
“Then let’s go down first.”
“Okay, my sister will wait here for a while.”
I left Hyejin noona behind and came down from the roof. It was a bit unfortunate, but there were many opportunities to have sex, but the opportunity for an agent to visit was rare.
‘Heh. You’re an agent for that bastard. It’s a sign that the world will end.’
‘Does Mr. Rossby know an agent? Was she there before she died?’
‘None,’
‘But how do I know?’
‘Because this body knows nothing.’
‘Come to think of it, it’s also strange to have a conversation in Korean.’
‘Byeongsin, it’s been almost a year since we’ve been together, is it strange that you’re here now?’
‘……. Ghosts are a bit scary. There’s no time to wonder.’
‘Khehehe, this cowardly bastard. It seems the wall has gone to the cock.’
‘Uh? Are you admitting that it’s big?’
‘Okay. You weren’t at the level of this body….’
While talking to Rosby and walking to the place Wonho said, Rosby suddenly disappeared. It was my first time experiencing this, so I panicked and called out to Rossby in a loud voice.
“Mr. Rossby!”
‘Shut up. It won’t disappear, so keep quiet.’
What’s going on? I’m a little anxious, but…. After that, Rossby disappeared again. I was relieved to see that she had disappeared for a while, not completely, but I was still anxious and called for Rossby again.
“Mr. Rossby?”
But Rossby didn’t answer and the woman she hadn’t seen addressed her. She was a woman who seemed to be about 165 cm. She was wearing sunglasses, so I couldn’t see her face very well, but I knew right away that she was a beauty just with her pointed nose and kissable lips.
Besides, she looked good in her suit, and she was a woman whose body that appeared under the suit and was missing when she fell out was a woman who aroused curiosity.
“Who… ?”
“Hello. Ji Maeng-ho. This is Cheon So-young from SY Agency.”
The woman handed me a business card. It was immediately evident that her hands were quite soft as she passed and that she was not an athlete.
“What if it’s a SY agency?”
If you are a SY agency, you have heard of it. It was the agency that signed promising players four or five years ago and sent most of them to the major leagues.
“Yes. It is the same agency that has sent a lot to the majors and has a lot of all-star players.”
“But there is no title on the business card?”
“Well…. It’s a position similar to that of an investor.”
“You look younger?”
“What does an investor’s age have to do with it? Money is important.”
“Ah….”
“I am not a cheater.”
And the woman immediately pulled out another of her business cards.
“And I’m also the head of operations for the AT Thunders.”
“AT Thunders?”
“Yes. If you meet as a Thunders employee, it’s tempering. Today, I came to meet you from SY’s point of view.”
“Ah….”
So it was more like a scam. Do clubs usually allow concurrent positions? Besides, can a woman this young be an investor in that big agency? It smelled of fraud.
“First of all, it’s a bit difficult here, so I know of a place, shall we go there? Oh, of course I got permission from the director.”
I thought about turning it down, but the legal nerd dragged on a bit. There… , She was Cheon So-young, so the woman who introduced herself was pretty.
‘What if I cheat? I think it’s much more profitable if you get scammed and eat it.’
“Like.”
“Then let’s get in the car.”
Following her words, as we walked to the parking lot, there was a nice-looking foreign car, and she opened the car door by pressing the key.
“Wow, does it open up?”
“Let’s get on.”
I’m not sure what kind of car it was because I’m not interested in cars, but it sure seemed like a lot of money. Or maybe you bought a car with a loan to cheat.
When I got into the car, the ride comfort was incomparable to other cars.
“Then we will depart.”
“Where are you going?”
“This is a training ground operated by our agency.”

‘I haven’t grown much in the meantime. After all, it’s been less than a month.’
As Soyoung waited for the signal, she checked Maengho’s abilities with her own eyes. Although he was confirmed in the Golden Lion Flag, this was the first time to accurately measure Ji Maeng-ho’s abilities, as there were a lot of players at that time, and he had to check from a distance.
-Ji Maeng-ho: 18 years old/Utu Uta/6` 2“/205 lbs(188cm/93kg)
Contact (hit accuracy): vs L 30/80, vs R 25/80
Power: vs L 60/80, vs R 55/80

Speed(Main) : 80/80
Arm Strength(Shoulder) : 75/80

Position: SS(30/40) 2B(25/80) 3B(25/35) 1B(20/30)
Overall Rating: 35/80
‘I’m still lacking in contact and initiative, but since I’m at the league average level, this is enough.’
The average score of the KBA league, confirmed by Soyoung, was 30 to 35, and if it wasn’t used in the majors right away, this was enough. Rather, he had higher abilities, so he was fortunate enough not to advance to the majors.
‘One peculiarity is that the short stop (SS, shortstop) has better abilities than the second (second baseman), but the second has higher potential. Should I say I’m glad I found my aptitude even now?’
This player definitely works. Soyeong’s thoughts of choosing the Maengho grew stronger.
Of course, not all players reach their full potential. However, Ji Maeng-ho was a competitive player in the KBA even now, and conquering the majors was not a dream if he reached his full potential.
Soyoung knew that too. As soon as he became an adult, he confirmed through the agency he founded with pocket money that his abilities worked and that not everyone became a presidential candidate just because he had high potential. I also earn some pocket money.
Many baseball players would be surprised to know that the current best agency in Korea, SY Agency, was established for that reason, but fortunately, the intention of establishment has not yet been revealed.
‘Hmm. If an AT wants to build a dynasty, it’d be nice if it was big enough to bomb the league moderately, so it would be nice to be in the AT for the rest of my life, but that’s going to be tough, right? If it’s an all-time talent like this.’
He had nothing to lose by advancing to the majors if he signed an agent contract.
‘Okay, I have this one unconditionally.’
“Aren’t you looking at me too much?”
“Oh, sorry. It’s snowing all the time. I must have worked hard.”
“Well, that’s right.”
‘Heh. Do you think this woman is interested in me? At a time like this, if she evaluates whether Mr. Rosby will earn well, she’s good, but where did she disappear to?’
It may be because of the confidence he gained from living a happy life with two women, Hyejin and Hyuna, but Maengho mistook those eyes for interest in men. In addition, the eyes peeking out from the side of the sunglasses were exactly the style of a fierce tiger.
Of course, So-young’s interest in her wasn’t that kind of interest.
So-young is the daughter of a chaebol family. Because of her ambition to rise to higher ground, she was a woman who had never been in a relationship and she had never loved a man. She didn’t even have a man that caught her eye.
“Okay, we have arrived.”
“Here is… ?”
“A training ground run by the SY agency? Well, something like that.”
As a training ground for off-season players belonging to SY agency, the facility was full of state-of-the-art facilities. My eyes widened because it was the first time that Maengho had seen a training ground with such state-of-the-art equipment.
‘I wish I could show you what I see, but I can’t help it. I have no choice but to show the data to the dog-eyed scouting team.’
“My lady, are you here? I have everything ready.”
“There are customers today, so call me the team leader.”
“Oh, sorry. Manager.”
“The facilities here are nice.”
Meng-ho tried to talk to So-young somehow, but the answer came from the other side.
“Athletes belonging to our agency train here in the off-season. The pitching machine also uses the best pitching machine used in the major leagues, and the speed is up to 180 km/h and the rotation speed can be adjusted. So….”
“I am Ji Maeng Ho Seon from Hanche High School. He is a promising prospect that I have my eye on.”
“Ah. Okay. The manager is watching…. Then, well, I’ll be a great player without even looking at it. Fierce player. Nice to meet you To explain further, it is a place where you can use the Hit Trax system to analyze exit velocity, distance, and more. It is better than most club facilities.”
“Yes.”
Maeng-ho gave a short answer to the man who suddenly came in.
‘What, this bastard, suddenly interrupted.’
The man who seemed to be an employee continued to boast about the training ground, whether he knew the heart of the fierce tiger or not. Maeng-ho was busy peeking at So-yeong’s hip line as she walked ahead.
‘Your hands were soft, but do you exercise regularly? The line is alive Of course, it’s nothing compared to Hyejin noona or Hyuna, who were athletes. But I think that would be enough to tighten it?’
As I was looking at So-young with those dark eyes, So-young, who had been walking in front of me, suddenly turned around and started talking to me.
“Are you interested in the major leagues, Maengho?”
“Ah! Major League!”
Maeng-ho was embarrassed and his voice crackled, but no one burst into laughter. For both So-young and the man who seemed to be an employee, Maeng-ho was a valuable guest.
“I am interested in the major leagues. But first of all, there is the military issue, and I decided that it would be better to conquer Korea and move on.”
Maeng-ho told the truth about his ideal type, So-yeong’s question.
“It’s good. It’s a trend in the major leagues these days to not debut young players right away. Only when the body is complete, between 22 and 24, do top prospects debut. And since service time is calculated while participating, the age at which full-time business trips are possible will be slower.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Maeng-ho might not have known it, but it was almost impossible to debut at the age of 20 unless you were a super-special talent who actually chewed up the major leagues.
And since it is a major league that operates according to the logic of money, even if you make your debut right away, it was not easy to travel full-time because the club adjusts service time to spend more players even for one year.
“In that case, it would be better to solve military problems in Korea and earn money before advancing to the major leagues. If he stays in Korea, it must mean he’s a player who doesn’t do much even if he doesn’t advance to the majors, right? Then it would be much better to have a professional life in Korea in the first place.”
“Am I confident?”
So-Young responded to Maeng-Ho’s words with a soft smile, as if seeing the confidence that filled Maeng-Ho’s face.
“I saw the potential. I mean, starting with the KBA is an excellent choice. That’s why I’m trying to sign an agent contract with Maengho. Fierce tiger players can go to the major leagues. Then, after the facility tour, shall we share our story?”
“Good. Are you sharing the story with Team Leader Cheon?”
‘Because I don’t like talking to dull boys.’
“Sure. I am an investor in this agency, but I am also the head of operations for the Thunders.”
Without knowing Maengho’s insidious speed, Soyoung answered Maengho.
“Chun is not just an investor. In effect, he could be considered the owner of SY Agency.”
“Sounds useless….”
“Sorry. Manager. I have been talking too much.”
‘Yeah, kid. You should speak less.’
Maeng-ho smiled inwardly as he saw the man listening to his face, and moved on again.
