Chapter 85 – [Raccoon Man Beginning]
It wasn’t that hot outside. Compared to the morning, the wind was blowing, and it was much cooler because it was near a lake. Rather, in some ways the weather was better than indoors.
I don’t know if we came out at the right time or if it was like that, but I regretted that it would have been better if we had come out earlier.
After getting off the monorail, we looked around to see what we should take first.
Perhaps because it was an outdoor facility, there were many rides that could not be made indoors. There were mainly large, thrilling and fun attractions such as Gyro Drop, Gyro Swing, and Atlantis.
“Which one should I ride first? I think it would be fun to ride either.”
“Isn’t that the first thing you need to get on once you get here?”
Shion pointed to a corner over there and said. There was a facility that looked like a house made of sweets.
I know what it is because I rode it when I was young. I really enjoyed riding it back then.
“A fantasy dream?!”
“Don’t you like it?”
“No, it’s been a while since I’ve been thinking about the old days. It’s nice. It’s just nice to look at.”
We entered through a doorway that looked like a house made of cookies and went down into the basement.
Fantasy Dream is a dark ride-type attraction such as Sinbad’s Adventure or Jungle Exploration Boat. However, if there is a difference, the first two are focused on the feeling of adventure, while the fantasy dream is focused on the theme of innocence.
As you can see from the entrance facilities, the house made of sweets is dominated by animatronics, such as sweets with animal or human faces that seem to come out of fairy tales.
“My wife and I need to know that she is like a child.”
“………”
“Billion?! Billion?! It hurts!? It hurts?! Don’t hit it with a gravitational field on it! It really hurts!”
My station field boasts zero defense power only for Shion. It is because Zion boasts of absolute trust in me.
But if you put a gravitational field on it and hit it, it hurts no matter how much I do. Ugh, the stomach…
“People aren’t as good as you think”
“It seems just right”
After the rotation had gone around a couple of times, it was our turn. I went inside and sat in the middle seat. Anyway, it’s fast and it’s not a facility like that, so it doesn’t matter where you ride.
When the attraction started passing through the clown’s mouth, they entered the fantasy dream set in earnest. It was quite a sight to see as it gave the feeling of passing through a tunnel with circular lights in a dark passage.
Inside, various animatronics greet us. It’s normal for lollipops to have faces on them, and there were places like Santa’s toy factory, and there were forests and dragons.
“It’s a house made of sweets… I wanted to see something like that in the past.”
“Isn’t there one witch who can do that?”
“Who? Ah, Gilhyun’s friend? Okay, we’re not that close, so I don’t want to ask you that favor.”
“Don’t you think differently over there. Get along with your relatives.”
“I’ll do it if you’re close with your cousin.”
“………”
“Ah, ah, ah?! It hurts?!”
Again, he was beaten by the hand of Shion, who was surrounded by a gravitational field. No, I was right! Oh, was that a catchy word?
It was not a fast facility, so it took about 10 minutes to go around. The moment I came back and was about to go to the exit. Shion was staring at the decorative fake gold coins on the floor below.
“Why?”
“In the past, I thought it was gold chocolate and wanted to take one.”
“Well, considering the attractions here, it was more likely that they were gold coins and chocolates rather than real gold coins. You must have had a time when you were full of childhood.”
“I am always heartfelt”
“Not like that in bed.”
We took the escalator at the exit and went upstairs again. Now is the time to get on the thrilling rides in earnest.
I was thinking about what to wear. I’ll probably have to leave before it’s too late because I have a restaurant reservation. If you think about it, it seems that it is ambiguous to ride all of them, and you can ride two or three at best.
Then you should make a good choice.
“Except the gyro drop for now”
“Why did you subtract that?”
“……Are you saying that after hitting me with a gravitational field? I’m sick of feeling the thrill of gravity, so let’s try something else. At least gyro swing is better.”
“Then how about that one?”
Shion pointed to that end with her chin. There was something similar to the rails of a roller coaster, and people on the body moving at a faster speed than other rides were screaming.
Atlantis! When I was in middle school, I rode that with my kids and I almost cried! No, where is the ride that accelerates from the beginning and steps on the maximum speed!
“That’s fun. But it’s going to take a while. Is that okay?”
“It doesn’t matter. Wouldn’t it be fun to ride something like that at least once?”
“It may take some time, but it’s better than that. I’ll guarantee you fun.”
We walked to the end of the Atlantis waiting line. It’s a popular facility that stretches not only in front of the attraction, but also in front of other attractions.
“But isn’t it a bit noisy over there?”
“What? That?”
Hey, I saw people gathering in a corner even though it wasn’t even an attraction. It’s not like waiting in line for something, it’s like they’re gathering in a circle and looking around.
Normally, the parade here is indoors, so there’s nothing to see outside like that, but what is it?
“Looking at it earlier, it must have been the broadcasting station. I saw him going with a camera.”
“What, how did you know? I didn’t see it?”
“I couldn’t see it because I put it in my bag.”
I’m not omnipotent, so I don’t have the ability to see through, so I can’t do it if I ask you to figure out what’s hidden without using your senses. On the other hand, Shion can grasp any electronic device.
Roughly speaking, Shion is quick at figuring out electronic devices, and I am quick at figuring out creatures. It’s hard to figure out where Zion is if there’s no CCTV nearby, but I, on the contrary, can’t figure out how many cell phones are around. Biological detection and electronic detection are different systems.
While I was watching a filming, I noticed someone from the other side running towards me.
“Hey, hey!!”
“……?”
I already noticed who was calling, but I deliberately ignored it. That’s enough to understand, but the opponent was quite persistent.
“Hey! Wait a minute! A foreigner over there!”
“…….Who are you?”
Shion ignored it, but reluctantly answered the words that were clearly looking for him.
Slowly, my hand clenched into a fist. It would be better to kick out manipulative men, but people who work in broadcasting are persistent, whether they are good or bad.
The middle-aged man wearing glasses caught his breath while wiping off the dripping sweat, and as if he had finally calmed down, he began to speak in earnest.
“Ah! You speak Korean well! You’re even better! I’m Jin Yong-seok, who is in charge of the PD of ‘We Live Together.’
“It’s done”
Zion firmly refused. However, the opponent did not care about such a refusal and flirted again.
“Why don’t you appear on the show instead? If you’re as pretty as a young lady, you’ll become very famous just by appearing on TV once. Oh, by any chance you belong to a model, so you shouldn’t appear in the media recklessly?”
“No, I just hate me”
“Our program is not very famous, but it is a program that has its own recognition. Wouldn’t you like to become famous?
“I”
Shion looked at him coldly and said.
It was so blunt and cold that even other people, not me, could understand her cold gaze. And behind it was a quiet anger.
“I clearly said no. This is my final warning.”
“…….All right”
Only then did the person who introduced himself as PD Jin Yong-seok stopped fussing around and finally went back to the original filming location.
I’m glad I got off the horse. Occasionally, among those types of people, there are often people who do not communicate even with words. Thinking about it, it was easier than I thought.
“You ruined the atmosphere. I’m glad you gave up so easily.”
“It’s better than before. At least you didn’t come to do something strange, did you?”
“That guy or the person in the broadcasting industry. From there to there.”
We waited for our turn while chatting again. It seemed like it would take another hour to ride, but since I was talking to Shion, there was no time to get bored.
However, PD Jin Yong-seok did not give up.
“…..Uh?”
Surrounded by crowds of people began to come this way. The camera was filming two men, but their faces seemed to have been seen somewhere.
No matter how much I was not interested in celebrities, I remembered the people I saw in the military. Those two were a two-member male singer group. Both are force users.
For Force users, the Gaia Force automatically supports their physical abilities, so the moment they wake up, they slowly change their appearance and body.
The original version of Baekri-do was decent, but now that he has awakened as a force user, he often exchanges phone numbers with female customers, so it must be more so for people who were originally good-looking.
With better physical condition than the average person and a good-looking face, it is only natural that he is popular. If you practice more, you can cover your singing ability, so I remember him as a celebrity who was quite popular regardless of gender.
…….It’s nothing else, but one of the seniors in the same dormitory played those kids’ songs every morning.
Huh? Wait a minute, come to think of it, the name of their group is…
“Was it ‘We live together’? I remember that program as an entertainment program that shows the daily lives of celebrities from the same group living together in the same dorm.”
“Somehow there were a lot of people.”
Considering that people are flocking to film the broadcast, it is better to come secretly without spreading rumors, so it is understandable that they came out of nowhere, but our timing was bad.
Putting aside anything else, the fact that the camera is facing this way is even more so.
“Wow! That sounds like fun! Atlantis! Changhyeok, have you ever ridden on that?”
“I can’t ride scary ones! Ride something else, something else!”
“If you come to an amusement park, you should ride something like that at least once. That’s fun! Let’s ride together!”
Among celebrities, a two-member male group that can be considered one of the best in terms of looks has come this way. And they found us
To be precise, I saw Zion.
“Uh, wow…”
“Hey, what are you looking at?”
Shion deliberately ignored them while taking out her cell phone. It’s a good deal, but the problem is that their attention is directed to this side.
They came to us Then, after talking to Shion, the camera that was filming them started shooting at us in earnest.
“Hello! Oh, hello? Are you a foreigner?”
“…….”
Shion deliberately ignored it. But they don’t seem to want to go easy.
I spoke to Shion, who was ignoring him, to somehow attract attention. Seeing them deliberately ignoring them, they didn’t know that they didn’t want to talk about it, or on the contrary, they were ignoring it.
Slightly, more strength goes into the fisted hand.
“Where are you from? Oh, I’m Lee Jin-hyeok. This is Yoon Chang-hyeok. Both of them are Hyeok-ja Dol-rim, so it’s easy to memorize them, right?”
“………”
“This time, we came over to shoot… Oh, we’re a two-member group called ‘Utopia'”
“What did you say now?”
Shion, who had been ignoring and only looking at his phone, lifted his gaze.
They succeeded in getting Zion’s attention. But that’s never a good direction.
I don’t know why the group was named Utopia, but it was bad luck for them. There are many other names, so why bother with that?
“Did you say utopia now?”
Utopia.
It was the name of her cousin, whom Shion loves and hates.
