Chapter 1406 – [Crazy Heroine Trouble Calling the Storm!!!]

She said that she wasn’t even on vacation yet, or to be precise, she would have passed vacation by the time Ana came, but she said Ana was coming.

Does that mean she feels jealous or threatened by the Heavenly Demon? Hagisa Dio would have tried to kill Jotaro with just a stand of the same type, even if Jotaro wasn’t hostile.

I’m glad they’re not completely hostile to each other. If that was the case, of course I would have taken Ana’s side. Because no matter how many friends you know,

I can’t help it even if I don’t admit it. Even if I compare my wife and my friend in a normal way, few people would choose my friend, but Ana is a precious person to me to the extent that Zion or Eden are right next to her. It’s the wife of the first episode, but if you forget it, it’ll be a big deal.

“It’s something I often think about, but I know you from the second playthrough, so I get a little jealous.”

“Is a rich man with 1,000 islands of rice jealous of a poor man with 1 island?”

“That’s different from this”

Anyway, we still have some time until Ana arrives. In the meantime, I contacted Ji-hee separately to look at the store and decided to meet at the store together.

After getting a driver’s license and buying a pretty decent car with the help of Shion, Ji-hee drives to the store.

“Oh, Mister. You came first. Did you wait long?”

“No, I just came too”

It’s not a word of mouth, it’s real. No matter how much it is, it doesn’t seem like it’s manners to come right on time, so I came about 15 minutes early, and Ji-hee came roughly the same. I just came a little earlier.

Anyway, it was a month over there and I hadn’t met in three months, so it was nice to meet you, so we talked about this and that.

“How was your vacation? I heard Aunt Zion went somewhere else.”

“I went back to Cheonma’s hometown. I had a lot of fun doing various things there.”

“If it’s the Heavenly Horse, then… Murim?”

“Yeah, I went and looked around and that’s it.”

“Wow, that must have been fun”

“Everything about Moorim is good, but it’s hard to live without power. Why is Korea a good place to live if you have a lot of money, and Moorim is a good place to live if you have power?”

If you have enough strength, even the government army cannot ignore the Moorim people. Of course, because the other side is dominated by the Demonic Cult, the security is pretty good, so there may be some limitations, but they don’t ignore the Murim people at all.

Even if he is restrained to a certain extent, if he is strong, he will take care of him.

Of course, you can get caught up in that much, but that’s the case. If you are weak, you will be taken away, and if you are strong, you will be involved in an accident and suffer, so it might be best to go in the middle.

“I want to go there once. China is in a situation right now, so it’s like going on a trip.”

“That’s why I went to Moorim, but Jihee, wouldn’t it be a bit difficult if I went. First of all, the bathroom there wasn’t very hygienic.”

“Hey”

Haha, I can understand it when I see you react like that.”

We decided to go into the store first. The interior has been remodeled and the exterior hasn’t changed much other than being cleaned.

However, the inside has changed considerably. The structure is also slightly different, and on the other hand, it has been remodeled with an efficient and sophisticated feel to the extent that it feels like Shion has put his hand into it. On the one hand, it feels like a laboratory somewhere.

“Wow, it’s changed like this. It’s amazing. The size of the store must be the same.”

“What did they say? They say that a great architect can use a limited space as efficiently as possible. You seem to have done well as that is your major.”

As for the downside, I would say that regular customers might feel a little bit reluctant because it is too tidy.

However, on the contrary, considering the advantages, a more spacious and pleasant atmosphere has been added. It feels like a sophisticated restaurant in an ordinary restaurant. Maybe the customer base will be a little different, so I’ll have to think about that too.

“It’s been a while. Maybe it’s because of the remodeling, I feel like something has changed.”

“It can’t be helped. Oh, I had a long vacation this time, but Jihee, what did you do during your vacation?”

“It wasn’t anything special. Like a food tour in Seoul.”

“Hey, a story that Eden would like. Where did you go?

Today, I’m here to organize and clean the store, so I don’t plan on opening a separate business. So, as long as you clean up the shop today, you are free. After cleaning up, I thought I would cook something and eat it together, but the ingredients are……. What are they? Why is there

When I looked at the store’s freezer, it was full of vegetables and meat. I wonder why this is there, but I wonder if it was filled in by Zion.

There are ingredients, so you can cook and eat. Once we finish our work, we decide on the menu.

“Jihee, do you have anything you want to eat?”

“Um, I feel like I’m craving pasta today.”

“Pasta is good. Shall we make a little bit of everything?”

I took out the ingredients for the pasta dry noodles and sauce.

In fact, I could have made each one by hand, but that would take a long time. I’m going to eat right away, but it’s not good to take too long.

I was thinking about what to make, but I decided to do the fastest thing first. In Korea, it is known as a dish that looks like something, but in Italy, the home of pasta, it is just aglio olio, like rice with soy sauce egg.

Garlic, of course, is Korean. I’m thinking of adding a little cocktail shrimp to it to make it feel like Gambas.

If an Italian saw it, this would not be aglio olio!!! It was something to shout about, but what can I do? There is no exact answer to cooking in the first place.

“Oh, it’s because they’re doing pasta. Ana said she’s coming to play this time.”

“Do you know?”

“Do you keep in touch often?”

“Yes, I’m older than me inside, but I’m living with my older sister and younger sister. I was the older sister when we first met…”

“But Jihee, I’m glad you understand me well”

“I think it’s because I’m used to something unusual when I’m next to you.”

“Wait a minute, is it my fault?!”

Jihee knew a lot about our family situation. To be precise, I was told.

I had no choice but to tell her because I had seen Anagativ before and had awakened her previous life, and Ji-hee was there. Now that I think about it, I think the relationship with Jihee must have been quite long.

Have you seen it since elementary school? Seeing the kid I saw back then was so big, I felt a different kind of emotion from Eden.

“Now, starting with aglio olio. I thought it would be better to eat several kinds, so I deliberately reduced the amount.”

“They say that once you eat all the pasta, it’s one serving.”

“Our Eden would have eaten the whole wok with pasta, so it would fit for one person”

“I’m so envious that I don’t gain weight even though I eat like that.”

“Jihee, you seem to care about your weight too. Well, if you’re a woman in your prime, you’re bound to be like that.”

I also ate aglio olio in the spare time while making other sauces. Well emulsified grease. And you can feel the salty and garlic flavor, and chewing the shrimp on top of that makes the flavors go well together.

It’s nothing special, but it’s good. I didn’t add peperoncino because I put a lot of garlic, but I think I did well.

“Mmm!!! It’s delicious. It’s much more delicious than what I ate on my previous trip to Italy.”

“No matter how much I invested half my life in cooking, if I can’t do this much, I’ll have to hit it.”

“I’ve tried it a few times at home, but it didn’t taste like it.”

“It’s a dish that shows the basics as much as there’s nothing special. It’s important to emulsify.”

“It’s really nice to be able to learn a lot about cooking by being next to you”

I’m thinking about it because I’m studying…… No, if I bring up this word, I’m going to hear the old days.

It has been several years since Jihee worked at our store. In her senior year of high school, Ji-hee ruined her college entrance exam, and even though she could have gotten good grades and entered any university in Seoul, Ji-hee had no thoughts of going to college yet.

People can get a job and make a living without having to go to university. If college was an absolute thing, it would have been overflowing with quotas no matter where you were.

“Are you thinking about college?”

“Um, well… To be honest, I studied too much in the past, so I don’t have any thoughts of wanting to study more.”

Oh, mines!!! Madic!!! Maddie Lee Profit!!!

He is a child who has been subjected to almost mental abuse while only studying for ten years.

But back then it was different. If I was forced to do it then, I can control it myself now. You can quit at any time, so the situation was completely different from then.

“Eden said that when he grows up, he will go to cooking or food regardless of college.

“Are you Eden?”

“Jihee, if you have something you like, you better go to college to learn more about it. College tuition is……”

“That shouldn’t be a problem. I have some savings.”

It’s not that I pay less, and the officetel I live in is also a good environment for saving because I get a cheaper monthly rent compared to things with Zion’s help.

Besides, Jihee doesn’t look like she has a lot of money to spend… No, isn’t this a bit problematic?

No matter how much you live, if you are in your 20s, regardless of gender, there are many things you want to have and do, so no matter how much money you have, it will be insufficient. I’m rather worried.

On the other hand, I wonder if my motivation to do something similar to burnout syndrome has decreased as a reaction to spending most of my student days, no, almost all of them studying.

I want to make something as a hobby. First of all, it’s different from me taking care of them instead of my parents, so I have to take care of them that much.

“Hmm, I’m interested in cooking too.”

“Looking at learning to cook, it looks like that. Are you thinking of learning in earnest?”

“Shall we?”

“Then I’ll help you too. I can do that for theory and knowledge.”

He teaches Ji-hee how to cook, but that is only from the perspective of a restaurant owner. Even if they gave you some know-how, they didn’t tell you the theory or history because it was deep. To be honest, I don’t need it to do business.

But if you learn seriously, I will teach you. Like Eden, if I wanted to become a chef in the future, it was a welcome for me.

I just want to eat a lot of good things. Kitchen work is difficult for men, but what about women? It’s normal to lift heavy cooking utensils, and it’s not uncommon to get burned by standing in front of a fire.

Our Eden would have been burned a few times if it wasn’t for the natural affinity. Of course, if you had burn marks, you would have been treated even if you bought medicine from a dimensional civilization.

“Shall we go to the same university later when Eden goes to college?”

“Are you going to be a late college student?”

“By the time Eden goes to college, I’ll be in my 20s, but I’m not too late, right?”

“You must be the same age as a returning student.”

While talking, the sauce is finished, so I make one. Mushroom Cream Pasta made with button mushrooms and oyster mushrooms in a ready-made cream sauce.

It is made by stir-frying mushrooms once to give them a rich taste and then mixing them with cream, so it will be delicious even without meat. I gave it to Ji-hee and I tried it myself, and the unique chewiness of mushrooms is alive and delicious.

“Is this tomato sauce next?”

“There are variations, but I like to make meat sauce with meat in tomato sauce.”

“Do you put cheese on it?”

“Cheese Oven Spaghetti? Would you like some?”

“……I have to walk home when I go home. I have to exercise to burn calories or I’ll gain weight.”

Afterwards, the finished meat sauce is poured over the noodles, topped with mozzarella cheese and heated in the oven. Sizzling cheese, delicious-looking tomato sauce, and even minced meat. It’s an irresistible combination.

After mixing the cheese, sauce, and noodles well, and slurping a bite, you can feel the savory taste of the tomato sauce and cheese that melts the greasy taste of the meat well.

I set the noodles to al dente and heated them in the oven so they became fully cooked, but this wasn’t bad in its own way. It’s nice to be relaxed.

Around the time we finished eating, a text message came from Shion.

– How is the store?

-Are you okay? Why, what’s going on?

– It’s nothing else, but the store has been remodeled, so I’m going to go there. Eden will also go with me after school.

-Somehow, the freezer at the store was full of ingredients. Eden would eat this.

I wondered why there were so many ingredients in a store that had just been remodeled, but it seems that Shion had intended to come with Eden from the beginning.

Hagisa Shion cares about architecture as much as I care about cooking, but it’s strange if you don’t come to see the remodeled store. Since Eden is coming, I need to prepare the ingredients first.

“What’s going on, mister?”

“Zion and Eden are coming. Jihee, what do you want to do? Do you want to go in first?”

“Oh, then I’ll have to cook. I’ll help you too.”

“It’s not like I’m doing business today, so I don’t need to stay here to help.”

“Ah, how can I just go in alone? And I have to see Eden’s face. I also heard about Moorim.”

I felt like I could ease my hands because Ji-hee was helping me. Therefore, we spent time preparing the ingredients separately before Zion and Eden came.

It feels like he has returned to his normal daily life. Hagisa It’s normal because there’s no major incident happening and it’s quiet.

However, an incident occurs as if this was the night before the storm. It’s not that kind of case that it’s going to be a scandal, but……. It’s that kind of case that I want to do.

Booooong!!

Your phone vibrates to let you know you have a text message. Wondering if Shion sent another text message, she washed her hands while she was preparing ingredients and checked them.

“Oh wait, there’s another text message”

“Are you a lady?”

“You have to see it… Uh”

“Why is that?”

The opponent was an unexpected person. I’ve been in touch regularly, but it’s the first time I’ve been in touch from the other side like this.

If someone does, it’s Jihee’s father. That he has been in touch

– This is Jihee’s father. Could I possibly meet Jihee in the near future?

Even if I told them about Ji-hee’s current situation, they had gone through such things and didn’t have a good perception of their parents, so they kept their distance, but they suddenly contacted me.

I wonder what’s going on… But before that, I think I should check to see how much Ji-hee’s wound has healed.

“Jihee. Your father wants to see you, but what about…”

“I do not like it”

“Uh, yes”

Ji-hee, who had been working with a joke and a laugh until just a moment ago, expressed her intention to refuse with a straight face.

If you look at the immediate answer, there is no room for stock. Judging from my feelings, Ji-hee still felt intense repulsion towards her parents. If you force it, it becomes a problem.

“Okay, then your father and uncle will meet separately.”

“I don’t even need to see you. Just say no.”

“Still, seeing that you contacted me like this, it looks like something is going on, so I want to hear the circumstances.”

“I don’t even need to be that person.”

It was a very hard and distant word for a man to say to his own father. I can roughly guess how Jihee thinks of her parents.

Years of time have healed some of the wounds, but the feelings still linger. How long will it take for that feeling to dilute… I think 10 years from now won’t be enough.

But that is unavoidable. They did what they deserved

One said he was for the child and abused him mentally, while the other said he was for the child and was engrossed in his work and was indifferent to the child.

And the price of that action was contempt and ignorance from the child… So it’s bleak.

I wonder if the day will come when Ji-hee and Ji-hee’s parents can reconcile.
