Chapter 24 – Episode 24. Strange Woman. (2) – (Modified)

“At this point, we have all the data we need for recruiting. Thanks for your work. Maengho player.”

“How are the results?”

“Even if it’s against a machine, it’s pretty good. The average exit speed is 152 km/h and the top speed is 196 km/h. The major league average is 88 mph (140.8 km/h), so that’s huge.”

Was I that much? I feel a slight lift in my shoulders.

“And the angle of the ball, most of the right hits are between 20° and 35°, which is in line with the current trend.”

Is that good? In fact, I only knew how to train, but I didn’t know about such a difficult story. While I was making a puzzled expression, Cheon So-young kindly explained to me.

“To cross the center of Jamsil, if the exit velocity is 165 km, the launch angle should be between 20° and 27°. However, the batting speed of the fierce tiger player is measured at 152 km, but it is measured at almost 170 km when only correct hits are counted. In other words, it can be said that he is a home run hitter suitable for Jamsil.”

“Ah. Okay.”

Actually, I’m not sure what you mean.

“Whoops. I mean, he’s a good hitter.”

She seemed to notice that I wasn’t listening either. It was a bit embarrassing, but the important thing in baseball wasn’t the head.

“There are many other data, but can you explain them?”

“No. All right.”

If I listen more, will my ignorance be revealed?

“With this much data, I think the AT Thunders could pick Ji Maeng-ho as their first pick. Thank you for your help.”

Right. She belonged to this girl AT. She didn’t want to go there, as long as she could. Of course, I didn’t put much importance on the winning team, but I still had to go to a team with some winning potential to receive the bonus.

However, since I wanted to play in Seoul, it was better to stay in Seoul than to be sold to a local club. In other words, should I say that I’m not in a position to cover cold rice with hot rice?

“Is there any possibility of nomination elsewhere? AT has the lowest order, right?”

I floated a little though.

“Ugh. It will probably be difficult. This year is a bountiful year for pitchers. I saw Ji Maeng-ho’s interview. He said he’s been a fan of AT since he was young. That’s a good thing.”

Fuck. Don’t do that interview. Still, would it be better than going to the provinces? From what this woman was saying, she seemed highly unlikely to ever pick me out of the Grizzlies or the Shinra Triggers.

“That’s fortunate.”

“Like. Well, now my business with the AT Thunders is over. Now let’s talk about agents. Oh, of course, what we met today must be kept strictly confidential. Did you know that if this fact is known, the club will be forfeited from the draft and the player will be suspended from the draft for 3 years?”

Was there such a provision? I didn’t know. Why are you telling me that now? If I had known that fact, I would not have followed you here.

“Isn’t it too late to tell you?”

“Oh, you didn’t know. However, all other clubs are aware of it, so it doesn’t matter much if Maeng-Ho doesn’t speak directly in the interview.”

“Okay? I thought it was dangerous again.”

“If anyone asks, just say it’s because of the agent contract, so there’s no need to worry too much.”

Phew, luckily it didn’t seem like such a big deal.

“Then let’s talk about agents in earnest.”

When she pressed the button, anyone could tell that I studied hard! An impressionable man entered the room.

“Hello? I am Jung Min-ho, agent of SY Agency.”

“Agent Minho Jung is a competent agent who obtained a lawyer’s license in the United States and connected major league players with various players.”

Jung Min-ho? I don’t know the name, but if you’re an agent at SY agency, you’re sure to have the ability, right? All the players who recently went to the major leagues belonged to the SY agency. The only problem is that these people might try to trap me with a fraudulent contract.

‘Uh, since Rossby isn’t here, I can’t make a decision on my own.’

“First of all, in the KBA League, except for the nomination amount, it is our agency’s basic contractual agreement that we help and receive a 5% fee for every salary negotiation or FA application, and when entering the major leagues, We are adjusting separately.”

‘Is 5% a lot? If you receive 100 million won, 5 million won? It may seem cheap. First of all, I won’t touch the down payment you receive when you nominate. I need an agent to get to the majors later….’

“If you are worried too much, you don’t have to decide right now. Maengho doesn’t have any intention of going to the major leagues right now, right?”

“Yes….”

“Then it’s okay to take the contract and seek advice from people around you.”

Chun So-yeong’s words seemed to have a mysterious power that made people believe. For some reason, I felt like I wanted to sign a contract right now.

‘No no. At least I have to talk to Rosby. Where did this human go at this important time?’

Even after that, lawyers Soyoung Chun and Minho Jung explained the agent contract.

“Then can I take it slow?”

“Sure. It’s a matter of life, but you can think carefully before making a decision.”

Should I ask Wonho? Wonho was a top-notch prospect who was contemplating entering the majors and drafting, and he was also well aware of the agent.

‘Okay, let’s ask Wonho.’

“Then I will wake up first today.”

“Yes. Chief Jung, please take me.”

“All right. Follow me. Maengho player.”

Wasn’t that woman giving a ride? She suddenly felt bad. All the more because the lawyer was grinning miserably.

*

While waiting for Wonho at a cafe near the school, a familiar face reappeared.

‘Mr. Rossby, where have you been?’

‘Fuck. Who is that strange woman?’

‘Yes? She’s just the head of the Thunders operations team, but she’s also running an agency. She’s a little weird, right? Is she originally going to have that kind of concurrent position?’

‘No, you stupid bastard. You’re not asking that now!’

‘Then what is it?’

‘She feels like I’m going to disappear when I get close to her. Besides, she’s haunted by that woman, her strange ghost! With tears of blood flowing from her eyes!’

“Yes? Ghost?!”

Fuck this! I thought she was pretty, but she was a woman possessed by demons!

‘Yes ghost! The ghost of some white man was following her! Tears of blood were flowing from her eyes, and her body was wrapped in chains.’

Goosebumps all over her body. Somehow, I thought something was strange. Ghosts in the 21st century! It gave me goosebumps and I felt like my teeth were chattering.

‘What’s strange is that I think I’ve seen that ghost somewhere. The face is familiar.’

‘Okay? Then what? If there’s a familiar face for Mr. Rossby, it’s a person from 100 years ago. Is there any reason for such a ghost to come all the way here and follow her?’

‘This dog is a big cub! Monkey, because you are a monkey, did your real intelligence become a monkey? How do I know that!’

‘Ah, if you don’t know, you don’t know, why are you angry!’

‘Anyway, don’t get close to her. She says I’m weird when she’s with you.’

‘Wait a minute, is this getting weird? What exactly does that mean?’

‘Once I lost my senses, I felt like I was going back to nothingness. Of course, when the distance between her and the woman increases, the senses return.’

‘So you’re saying Mr. Rossby won’t disappear?’

‘Right. I don’t go away so easily This body won’t disappear until you become the best second baseman in the majors.’

Aww. You mean that? Is it honey then?

‘Honey?’

‘Yes. As for feeling that Mr. Rossby is disappearing…. You mean I can fully enjoy her? Without Mr. Rossby’s interference?’

Sometimes when we were having sex, thinking that Rosby was watching us somewhere made me feel weird. That’s why I didn’t let Rosby talk during sex as much as possible. But no Rossby?

‘이 개새끼가! To get rid of me now!’

‘Hey. Doesn’t she feel Mr. Rosby when he sleeps with her?’

‘Fucking!’

Chun So-yeong even more, she wanted to eat that woman. A woman only for me that Rossby didn’t know. What does it taste like?

‘Ha, yes. She told me to have fun with her.’

‘Yes? I thought you’d get angry, but you’re not?’

‘Looking at her, she doesn’t seem to be interested in men at all, but she tells her to try her best.’

‘In the end, it’s a baseless joke. Mr. Rossby was, after all, a man of that level. I’m sorry she, but when she got in the car together, she fucking looked me over? It’s a pity. Kehehehehe.’

‘Yes, work hard. You baby monkey.’

The swearing Rosby spewed today was delicious. The AT Thunders said they were the operations team leader, right? I thought that AT would not be bad if this was the case.

Baseball can be played anywhere, but you can only find such a girl at AT Thunders. Even though AT is a club that doesn’t suit me, I’ve never seen such a unique woman before!

‘Rather than that, what did we talk about when we met?’

‘Oh, I just measured the data and talked a little about the contract, and that’s it. Oh right. Mr. Rossby, do you know the agent contract?’

‘This sucks. Do you think there was an agent system in the major leagues when I was alive? I’ve heard of football guys using proxies like that.’

‘So you’re saying you don’t know?’

‘Didn’t you say you didn’t know? Take out the contract.’

After all, talking to Rossby was the answer. When I pulled out the contract I had received, Rosby began reading it meticulously.

But I mean, it’s amazing. How could Rossby talk to me and even read?

‘No problem. It’s a good condition.’

‘Okay? That’s fortunate. It’s not a scam.’

Still, I can’t confirm from Rosby’s words, so I’ll have to ask Wonho. Just in time for Wonho to come.

“Oh, Maengho. Were you waiting?”

“I called, but you have to wait.”

Wonho appeared in front of me like an unexpected person. Why did he come here?

“Hyunah, what are you doing?”

Seeing the two of them in plain clothes, I think I can roughly guess what the situation is. Wonho must have called Hyuna, right? I don’t even know that Hyuna is already a slave to my cock.

“I heard from Wonho. He said he might sign an agent? Then I’ll make sure I’m okay, the next superstar of volleyball.”

“Hyun-a has an agent, so it will be helpful. More than that, your relationship has gotten better. That’s right, don’t be so tight between friendshaha.”

“…….”

Not knowing that Hyuna’s face was blushing, Wonho was smiling kindly. It was the first time the three of us had seen each other like this since we ate Hyuna, so it felt weird.

“Then, shall we look at the contract?”

When I put the contract on the table, Wonho and Hyuna began to read the contract carefully.

“Oh, SY? It’s also famous in the industry for being good. I’m envious here too Did I sign an agent contract too early? Most of SY’s players went abroad or signed free agents. Maybe you saw your potential? After all, I knew that Maengho would do well.”

“Thank you. So what do you think?”

“I think it’s okay for me to read it, but I’ll ask a lawyer who knows this well.”

Do you know any lawyers? Well, this kid was a gold spoon.

“Hyunah, how did you see it?”

“As expected, baseball is treated well. Better than the terms of my agent contract? Shall I change it too?”

Hyuna was looking at me with envy. And Wonho called somewhere.

“Uncle, I am a ghost. I was wondering if you could look at the contract.”

He said he knew a lawyer, was he an uncle?

“Yes. I’ll take a picture and send it to you. …… Oh, there doesn’t seem to be a toxin clause? Yes. Thank you No, not mine, but a friend’s. Yes. I am with my friends now. Oh, do you have something important to say?”

Wonho looked at us.

“Go and come. I just need to talk to Hyuna.”

“Then, I’ll go for a while. You two are talking.”

Wonho said that and walked outside for a while. When Wonho went outside, I looked at Hyuna. As I was staring at Hyuna, her face turned red as she imagined what she was thinking.

“Date?”

“… Yes.”

Do you still like Wonho after being fucked like that? Or am I meeting Wonho because I don’t want to admit that I’ve become a slave to my cock?

Come to think of it, I was going to do it with Hyejin noona today, but I couldn’t do it, right? Then how about Hyuna today?
