Chapter 90 – [Raccoon Man Beginning]

Wow, the fucking line. The past life of a good fortune passed by. If it wasn’t for the body it was in its prime, it would have been really damaged.

I am a transcendental person, but the essence is the soul. And in order for there to be no aging, we must rise to a higher level where there is no distinction between the body and the soul.

The reason there is aging is because it has a body. Anything with a form is bound to decline over time, and I was the same.

Anyhow, Baek-ri was surprised to see me at work on the second day after the gopiri gang of four had gone mad.

“No, why is your face cut in half?!”

“You should marry a woman who has the right sex drive.”

“…….Every time I hear that, I can’t match. My sister-in-law is like that.”

“What’s wrong with my wife!”

“Looks like an elementary school student!”

“No! Yesterday I was a normal adult!”

“Ah… I said that you could change your sister-in-law’s appearance. I can’t imagine what she would look like as an adult.”

“Very pretty”

“I’m envious of that. Does your sister-in-law have any relatives like you?”

“Once you have an older sister, your appearance won’t be much different. Shion only has one cousin.”

Shion said she herself had never seen her parents’ faces, so she couldn’t have a family. At least, the person who reflected her face was her cousin, Utopia Go.

“Then is there anyone I can introduce you to other pretty girls?”

“Hmm…First of all, two of my co-workers are female. One is a friend’s daughter, so it’s hard to introduce them to them, and one gets along with them, but… I’m sure you’ll hate it fiercely.”

“Why? Once you’re pretty, you can put up with being a bit angular. No matter how much you say that dating isn’t about looking at your appearance, you can’t ignore pretty things.”

“Your personality is like Ruri’s personality. Oh, I’ll correct it. It’s just Ruri’s personality.”

“Oh, I’m not buying it. Twy! Twy!”

Baek-ri frowned at her with a poop-chewed expression on her face. Hagisa, it’s natural for normal siblings to react like that.

What kind of asshole brother fucks his sister and her sister fucks her real brother? No sane person would think that way.

“That’s okay… Come to think of it, a broadcaster came to the store yesterday.”

“Broadcaster? What is it, want to appear on TV again?”

The number of customers increased after appearing on VJ Special Forces last time, but that became a thing of the past after a huge dimensional earthquake occurred in Myeong-dong. Customers who are still regulars come often, but compared to when they were on the air, it’s not very good.

Business would be good if I got on the air one more time here… But honestly, considering the hardships, I think it’s good as it is right now.

“No, that’s not it, it’s something else. The police came when the high school students had an accident the day before yesterday.”

“Oh, but why?”

“At that time, one female police officer came to do an interview with a witness because she couldn’t subdue any of them properly.”

“Did you?”

When the police were called by the gopiri 4-member gang, there were two male and female police officers from the district division. Among them, the male police officer was not very big, but he was good at overthrowing high school students.

Compared to that, I couldn’t subdue the policewoman one by one, so she asked me to handcuff her instead. I was honestly dumbfounded.

“Because of that, there’s a lot of talk right now. Even though it’s like this, are you going to increase the number of police officers?

“They’re not crazy. If you want to increase the number of policemen, the crime rate will go down even if you only patrol, so what are you doing by increasing the number of female policemen who can’t control one high school student properly?”

Those who drive misogyny are assholes. We don’t hate women, we hate cops who can’t do their job properly.

If the female police officer was a former national martial artist and had been defeated by Hankyu, I wouldn’t have said much. But what? I heard the sound of the side of the gimbap bursting and sat down.

“I did respond first. Since the person involved is my brother, he is currently resting because of assault treatment, so I’m resting today, so come tomorrow.”

“Nice job. If I say something in front of reporters, it just inflates it hundreds of times. It’s better for me to cover myself with shit.”

“Hyung? Are you okay?”

“It is said that there is no end to human malice, but I am proud that at least what I saw has come to an end. Do you think a trashy who only plays the media will budge?”

“Then what are you going to do if you end up having a hard time? I don’t know anything else, but it’s a big deal if our chicken restaurant doesn’t work…”

“Don’t worry. If it’s necessary, just destroy them all.”

“Ah! Is there a way to prevent manipulation of the media?”

“No, it’s just that they really break it down.”

Media Manipulation (Physical).

It has been said since ancient times that the fist is close and the law is far. George is a corrupt journalist, so he can wear a raccoon mask and work.

If you kill the person who writes, you won’t be able to write, so it’s press manipulation. Anyway yes

“I hope it goes well. When I go out to play this time, feel free to go”

“Huh? Where are you going to play?”

“The other day, because of Raccoon Man #2, Ruri has been uncomfortable these days. So we decided to go out together this holiday.”

“Well, no matter how dangerous Ji-opa is, he puts himself in his neck, so he must be worried.”

“He whined about asking for a suit too.”

“I wasn’t worried about that.”

They are really good siblings.

“I’m going to take him out because I have this job and I don’t think studying too much is bad. I don’t have a car, so I can’t go far, so I’m going to use public transportation.”

“What, lend me a car?”

“……? Did you buy the Starex I rode on last summer vacation?”

“You know what I ride.”

“You’re lending it?!”

Achapi, something like a car is for riding, not for leaving. In the first place, the car wasn’t that important to me, but Xion bought it for me, and I drive it in style. If it was the same as before, I would have bought a car that was good for the price and rode it.

The level of borrowing to go play is within the permissible range.

“…I can’t guarantee my skills because I’m different after I got my driver’s license. Thank you, but I’ll refuse. If you get into an accident, you’re not alone.”

“Hey, I just avoid pretty much any car. If I sneak in, I’d be surprised and give it up, right? They say expensive cars are so easy to drive?”

“How much does it cost to get a single bumper scratched?!”

“I’ll have to send it to the headquarters for repairs, so how many millions will it just break?”

While we were talking, Seo-ae went to work. It’s time for her to get down to business.

*        *    *

Even today, there were not many customers except for the regulars, as if the influence of the previous Myeongdong Dimensional Jin incident remained.

But there were uninvited guests.

As the sun was slowly going down, a reporter who said he had decided to come back yesterday came to our fried chicken restaurant.

“Was the person who said he was coming was a woman?”

“There were several other people besides him, but he was the one who stuck with me.”

“Okay?”

The unexpected reporter was a woman.

I don’t differentiate between male and female. Occasionally, a macho mind pops out like ‘Men are powerful!’ I see the individual rather than the gender.

When two men and women fight, it is natural that the man usually wins. Because their physical abilities are different. But what if the female side is a martial artist? Even if there is a difference in physical ability, the technique is inferior, so it will usually be the female side who wins.

That’s why I don’t see the difference between men and women. Just see people

However, the female reporter who came to see me felt a bit repulsed. Usually people who feel this way are narrow-minded and self-centered.

Of course, I can’t be completely sure of my senses, but my ability, which has also been awakened as a ‘sense’, boasts a 99% hit rate.

I can’t deny that 1% when the 1% gacha explodes in one free draw, but…

“Hello? I told you yesterday, but are you the boss here?”

“Yes, the boss here is the worst. Who are you?”

“I’m Reporter Lee Eun-jung from KWN Broadcasting Station. Can I do a few interviews about the incident that happened the day before yesterday?”

“I’m in the business right now, so it must be difficult. How about later?”

“Even though there aren’t too many people anyway? Give me a moment. I came yesterday and came back today because the boss wasn’t there. And it won’t take long, probably.”

The desperate person is not me, but you. Is it bitter if you say such a thing to a person in the middle of the business?

And the reason why our store doesn’t have many customers right now is because of the Myeongdong Dimensional Incident. Before that, there were much more customers, and now, not only our store but also other stores around here are empty.

It’s not easy to make people like this give up if they don’t satisfy what they want, and even if grace is forgotten in 10 minutes, resentment won’t be forgotten even after 10 years. You have to do it right and get rid of it.

It’s itchy, but if you scratch it, it will go away.

I left the kitchen to Baek-ri and left the store for a while. There was a dessert main coffee house above our store, so I went up there and bought a piece of cake with coffee and had an interview.

She took out her notebook and tape recorder and turned them on.

I glanced at the tape recorder and put my hand in my pocket.

“First of all, about the incident that happened two days ago. What do you think, boss?”

“Which part are you talking about? Violence, or…”

“About the policewoman’s response during the suppression of the incident.”

If so, I have a lot to say.

What should I say… I can roughly guess what I should say to make the other side happy and go back. But my pride won’t allow me to say it as it is.

People are supposed to be faithful to their duties.

As the owner of a chicken restaurant, my job is to serve delicious chicken to customers. And he is faithfully fulfilling his duties. Oh, of course, this is a side job, and even though the main job is difficult, I am doing it faithfully.

“Because of a mistake that occurred during the suppression process, the policewoman is now being criticized unfairly. The boss’s interview will help defend the policewoman against such people…”

“Wait a minute, I think there’s a word that shouldn’t go in now. ‘Unfortunately’?”

I wish I had heard it wrong, but it was true. Hey, reality is more than fantasy. Don’t underestimate reality, fantasy!

To be honest, it’s more like people living than fantasy.

“Yes, no matter how hard a student is, it’s hard to subdue four men, right?”

“At that time, the male cop who came with me beat them all by himself. In the first place, they were all drunk, so I don’t think there would have been a big problem if they didn’t use a weapon.”

“You’re a policewoman.”

“What rank is the policewoman?”

It’s hard for men to fight 4-on-1. However, the four of them are drunk high school students who do not even carry a weapon, so it is impossible to make a rational decision.
If the cops knocked him down, even a normal adult man would not be able to breathe properly.

“Women are the same as men, and they have the ability to do the same things. But do I have to go through a witch hunt like this because of an incident like this? Is the boss misogynistic?”

“No, this division was born because female police officers couldn’t do the same things as male police officers. But I don’t know why there is misogyny here.”

“You’re doing it now.”

Reporter Lee Eun-jung glared at me with her frowning eyes and said.

Oh, that’s this guy That self-proclaimed feminist who has been creeping up on me in the past few years.

If you want equality, freedom, and rights, you have to pay the price. Did the French Revolution happen without bloodshed, and did the human rights of black people just get it?

However, those who look only for rights and look away from responsibilities and duties are the ones I despise.

“Are policewoman women or cops?”

“The police, of course. Do you have that mindset?”

“Why do you keep driving like that? And if a policewoman is also a police officer, shouldn’t she be faithful to her duties as a police officer?”

My fever rose, so I gulped down an Americano with lots of ice and continued talking.

“A few years ago, the president of our country was also impeached and sent to prison for not being faithful to his duties. Even more so, if the police couldn’t subdue the assault perpetrator and asked me to help him, wouldn’t that be dereliction of duty? Are you helping? The police? Fuck you!”

So, originally, ordinary people are not involved in police work. Sometimes there is someone who helps, but on the contrary, if the perpetrator makes a complaint, the police cannot help.

“The police are responsible for the safety of citizens and maintain public order. In the first place, people who lack physical strength or ability should not be police officers.”

“Are you saying women can’t be cops? Are you sexist now?”

“Why is there gender discrimination there again? I said that people who lack physical strength or physical ability shouldn’t do it, but I didn’t say that women shouldn’t do it.”

“That’s what he said!”

“Huh? Earlier, I heard that women have the ability to do the same things as men. By saying that, aren’t you acknowledging that there are differences between men and women?”

She just affirmed the power of women. But tackling my words now is like denying what I said earlier.

These people are usually weak in logic. And there must be a contradiction in that logic.

And contradictory logic doesn’t work.

She was confident that she had dealt one fatal blow, but her logic blocked her and she glared at me and said,

“Boss, are you Han Nam-chung?”

If you intend to provoke me now, praise me.

Because the provocation worked successfully.
