Chapter 196 – Episode 196

Has the intimidation skill been activated?

The man who looked like he could beat a bear to death just by looking at his face immediately cringed and cautiously opened his mouth.

“That… That can’t be possible, right? Recently, children who claim that they are women, even though everyone can see that they are men, have been frequently appearing in the news… “I am sorry.”

“I hope it was a misunderstanding. Rather, can I meet the boss?”

“Hmm. “Just a moment.”

The man thought about it alone for a few times, then quickly walked towards the employee lounge.

[The lovely maids are currently changing their clothes! Please be considerate of the lovely gentlemen so that the lovely maids can work hard.]

Even after seeing the sign, the man knocked on the door like nothing happened.

Knock, knock.

“President. Hey, I heard someone came to visit the boss with some business. What should I do? “It’s an inquiry related to a new maid.”

“New maid?! If that’s the case, you’re always welcome!”

I was slightly surprised to hear a woman’s voice, which was clearly heard even though it was quite far away. She seems to be a very energetic boss.

But why does it feel like I’ve heard it before somewhere?

As I tilted my head, the door to the employee lounge opened, and a woman came rushing out.

While wearing a maid uniform and a rabbit ear headband.

… Was that person the owner of this café?

“Welcome, master! No, haha… Sorry. Oh my, oh my. “This completely stuck to my mouth.”

The woman who was cutely smacking her lips looks at me with an apology. His face said he didn’t know a man would come to talk about a new maid.

Surely?

“Uh… By any chance, does she do the maid herself…? … ?”

I was at a loss for words due to the same misunderstanding I experienced a while ago.

At this point, are the people working at this workplace strange? Or am I just terribly prejudiced?

I shook off my confusion and shook my head.

“No. “No.”

“Ah! You would say so, right? I’m sorry, I’m really sorry. “I see a lot of strange people these days.”

“It looks like strange people are coming?”

“Well, the batting average is a bit higher than other stores, right?”

Well, isn’t it natural since the maid café itself is a minor place? I’m a little worried when Yoon Su-ah gets a job here.

The woman spoke confidently, as if she had read my mind.

“To prepare for such a situation, Song Woong Song is always protecting us reliably.”

At least one face would be reliable.

If there are people who run at you even after seeing that face and stick, there are only two types. Either he believes in something, or he’s just a crazy person.

“I feel reassured.”

“It’s reassuring.”

A moment of silence followed.

I try to get to the point to shake off the awkwardness, but the rabbit reaches out before me.

“Let’s start by introducing ourselves, shall we? I am Lee Woo-joo, Lee Woo-joo. “I am the president of May World and also work as a maid.”

“My name is Kim Hyeon-woo.”

We roughly shook hands.

And as I try to get to the point, Lee Woo-joo keeps interrupting the flow. Looking at your own hands that were holding each other.

“Contrary to what you look like, you seem to have quite a bit of experience with women?”

“Yes?”

“Oh, excuse me. Should I call it a bit of an occupational disease? As I do this work, I naturally get a rough idea of ​​how the person feels just by looking at their facial expressions…”

Lee Woo-joo looked at me with a puzzled expression.

It’s literally a facial expression that is difficult for ordinary people to imitate, and is something you only see in cartoons. That woman, the use of her facial muscles is amazing.

“If you look at Hyunwoo’s face… It’s not a type of physiognomy that a woman would cling to very much. “I feel like you’re treating me too comfortably, bam.”

After listening to Lee Woo-joo’s words, I also felt it to some extent.

Lee Woo-joo is not an ordinary woman. Even though she is quite a unique woman, I wasn’t too embarrassed by her. Just, as if it was quite natural, she was only seen as a woman.

“You don’t go to any entertainment establishment often, do you?”

“No. “I guess I learned it naturally because I worked part-time at a convenience store for almost two years and dealt with a variety of customers.”

“Wow, if that’s the case, you must be pretty good at your job.”

My eyebrows trembled. She is somehow holding back from frowning for no reason.
In this case, I want to get to the point quickly and come to a conclusion. Because they keep secretly bringing up irrelevant stories.

It seemed like he would be annoyed by this, but he never showed it.

Apart from my house, I searched everywhere and this was the only maid café. If this doesn’t work, there is no maid café where Yoon Su-ah can get a job. It would be more realistic to ask Oh Hanam to make a new one.

So, I have to endure it. In a way, I am in Eul’s position.

But, I’ve seen things like this too. I can’t just treat you like a fool.

“It’s not that I can’t do it. But there is one maid who does her job better than me, and even better than her.”

He flinched, and Lee Woo-joo’s eyebrows rose slightly.

I don’t know how it works, but the rabbit ears headband on my head also twitches.

“You speak very well. Haha. If there was a maid like that, I would like to somehow bring her to our store. A good maid will directly lead to sales for the store.”

“So the boss also works as a maid?”

“What. If you really have to ask, right? It’s not that I completely hate working at a maid café. But that doesn’t mean I like it so much that I want to do it every day. But now, if I don’t work hard, the store will go out of business within two months?”

“You can’t even last 3 months?”

“The money it takes to maintain a maid café is more than you can imagine. Even with the crazy labor costs, you have to choose a girl with a pretty appearance and a heart that can captivate people’s hearts. If it were as easy as it sounds, you would have just set up an entertainment agency, right? No. To begin with, there must have already been 100 maid cafés in Korea, right? “This is a country where once something is successful, everything follows in an instant.”

I nodded.

“Even though I knew that, I still decided to open a maid café. Boss, it seems you are more greedy than you think? You’re trying to hit the jackpot. “By taking on the challenge of doing something that people are reluctant to do.”

“Haha. You can’t open a store like this if you don’t have ambition. I would have just opened a PC room and a chicken restaurant to save time and time. Even with that, you might be able to make a lot of money. In Korea, only building owners who purchase the building without debt can open a store for their own convenience.”

“Okay. Then the boss will have to hire this person even more. “I will make the boss’s wish come true.”

“Yes?”

Lee Woo-joo, who was puzzled for a moment, touched his forehead and burst into laughter.

“Wow, wait a minute. I stopped you. Are you subtly inciting a conversation just now? Are you trying to appeal in this way?”

“Would you believe me if I said I was aiming for it?”

“No, just believe and sleep. It just happened like this. “The story continued so smoothly that I didn’t even notice.”

As she shrugs, the locker room door opens again and about 5 women, including the maids I saw before, rush out.

“Wojoo, it’s time for our store to open. What should I do?”

“Huh? Ah, open. Open. “I have to do business.”

Lee Woo-ju, who had waved his hand to the kids, looked at my chest and opened his mouth.

“Let’s smoke a cigarette and talk?”

“… Yes?”

“That thing on your chest is a cigarette pack. “I’m a smoker too, so let’s talk while having a smoke in the smoking area later.”

“Ah yes. Let’s do that.”

I was a little embarrassed. This person was a smoker.

Well, if you look around even among women, the proportion of smokers is quite significant.

[Do not throw away butts anywhere. If you catch sight of it, it will kill you. Boom!]

… When we went to the smoking area with the cruel words written on it, Lee Woo-ju reached down under her skirt and took out a cigarette. She was like, wow, she thought for a moment that he was putting his hand in her panties.

「Chik!」

“Whoa… !”

Lee Woo-joo, who casually took a drag on a cigarette stronger than mine, exhaled a long puff of smoke and spoke.

“Did you see it earlier? There are 5 people on weekdays, 6 people including me. There’s Song Song-woong. Loan interest and management fees for loans taken out to rent a store. If you consider all the separate costs… “We can’t afford to hire just anyone.”

“…”

“Still, can you introduce it with confidence? No, I wasn’t coming in the first place. It’s already a bit like that since he came instead. There are circumstances like this and that.”

Lee Woo-joo said, shaking off the cigarette ashes with a crackle.

“This job is so fucking difficult. It’s already embarrassing to always smile brightly. If you are kind-hearted, you will suffer in various ways, but if you are strong-hearted, customers will not visit you often, so it is a bit disappointing.”

The moment you think, wouldn’t an entertainment establishment be much better than that?

Lee Woo-ju added as if he had read my mind.

“If there’s one thing that maid cafés are better than places like businesses, it’s that they don’t make you feel extremely sick like those places.”

That statement is also true.

Because the women of Hwamong are no longer able to survive on ordinary wages. However, the women of Hwamong were not mentally ill.

Isn’t that why it’s the best entertainment place?

“Even though you said this, the look in your eyes is still full of confidence?”

I nodded as I carefully pushed the smoked butt into the cigarette butt collection box.

While Lee Woo-joo was excited and talking about various things, all I could do was quietly exhale cigarette smoke.

But, that alone was enough.

I have learned through various experiences that listening clearly to what others are saying is both an ability and a negotiation tool.

It is not too late to counterattack later.

“At this point, I’m so curious about this place that I can’t stand it.”

“I brought photos and videos, so let’s take a look. You will bring the application form yourself later. “I also applied for a health certificate today.”

“Hmm. Great. Please show me.”

When I proudly showed Yoon Su-ah’s photo, Lee Woo-joo’s eyes opened wide.

“Omg. What. This person.”

“What is it?”

Ah. That’s right.

Did you say that this woman is good at understanding people?

“It’s natural to be pretty. Eye… “The eyes are so pure and clear that it’s impossible to believe, and they even have a soft look that goes well with them.”

I know it well.

“Such a kind and warm face resonates well with customers. Oh my god. More than anything… What is it really, this bag of happiness…? …”

A bag of happiness?

Even if I wondered what he was saying, I understood it right away. Ah, the happiness bag, that is.

“Is this possible? I don’t think there are any clothes that fit my size. No, this is almost… Even if you try to hide it, you can’t? Could it be… No.”

Lee Woo-ju continued to make a fuss about her.

“No, just looking at the photo makes the atmosphere crazy. Wow, this person… Isn’t this really a joke? “If men see it, they’ll go crazy.”

“Is it that great?”

“If I had to use a strange analogy. If you watch animation, there are completely young and innocent mother characters that appear. It feels like I’m seeing that in real life.”

“…”

I was speechless.

Are there any bastards who like that?

“Ordinary people won’t understand. However, these mother characters are actually surprisingly popular. Of course, this person is not my mother. That’s how it feels, the feeling. Not long ago, there was a broadcast by an overseas virtual YouTuber that originally had about 50,000 viewers, but had 150,000 viewers just because a mother appeared.”

And. It’s an area I really don’t understand.

Shouldn’t all of those children be imprisoned as sexual abnormalities?

“Looking at that look in your eyes, it seems like you don’t understand. Aside from that, this person seems so nice. Should I say that I feel like I want to be punished even if I’m being scammed outright? Do people like this believe in Tao? If they had done the same thing, they would have hit the jackpot. “Is he honestly confident that he won’t fall for it?”

I shook my head without hesitation.

Once again, I was really glad that Yoon Su-ah was not that kind of woman.

“I also watch videos and videos.”

Lee Woo-ju, who was so excited that he was checking the video, covered his mouth with one hand and spoke in a trembling voice.

“Hey, I like this person. I think I have a crush on this person. “I just want to hire you as my maid.”

“…”

For a moment, I wondered if I could leave Yoon Su-ah in the hands of someone like this.

Isn’t it dangerous in another way? Aren’t they suddenly kidnapping me?

“Recruitment, this is absolutely hiring! Hiring without even looking!”

On the one hand, I was relieved because I thought I would probably get hired. Nevertheless, it has not been confirmed yet.

I spoke while looking at Lee Woo-joo, who was very excited and running wild.

“Thank you for looking at me favorably. Su-ah is a bit weak. Is that still okay?”

“Oh, it’s okay to a certain extent. I know that kids these days are weak. Well, it’s not to the point where I can’t even walk.”

Look at this.

No one would have thought that there would be someone as weak as Yoon Su-ah.

Nevertheless, there was a person named Yun Su-ah in this world. Clearly.

“What if I’m so weak that I can’t walk for even an hour?”

With my question, Lee Woo-joo’s expression hardened. She spoke in a very cold voice.

“Shouldn’t a person like that work? Of course, I have no intention of hiring them either. Regardless of whether you are good at your job or not, is there anything that would make someone a murderer?”
