EP.21

"Huh... It's too late."

I went out for no reason but was caught by Nayoung and the girls and forced to run around. I was so exhausted that it wouldn't be surprising if I collapsed at any time. I came to the corner of the pomponjang, a resting area, and fell on the bench with my butt down.

As soon as I sat down, the breath that had been inside me escaped and my body became drowsy.

The sudden exercise that I hadn't planned made me feel more tired, but the good news was that my body was just tired and I was able to sleep well.

No... am I lucky?

I looked around, taking in the sight of the four beautiful girls who were still running around and screaming as if they were not tired.

Strangely enough, this huge interior contained not only a pom-pom cabinet but also other auxiliary elements.

For example, there is a billiards room, darts, archery, shooting range, and game machines that you would see at a game center, all of which are unknown.

I don't know what they were thinking when they put all this and that inside.

Even if it's a game machine, what is a billiard room, and what are archery and shooting ranges?

Putting these questions aside, I felt a little thirsty so I went to the beverage vending machine and picked up a total of five blue sports drinks.

It's mine, and soon it belongs to the four women who will be sweating profusely.

"It's a shooting..."

I didn't want to run around and exercise with the girls because my body was tired, and I remembered that when I was in the military before returning, I was better at shooting than anyone else, to the point where I was called a sniper.

So, among the various amusement facilities, the shooting range particularly caught my eye.

"Shall we give it a try?"

When you hit a randomly placed target with a gas gun, the lights go out.

30 shots at a time. It costs 6,000 won to do it once. It costs 200 won per shot, but even if it is a gas gun, the bullets are BB bullets.

Since each BB bullet costs as much as 200 won, bleeding is bound to be severe.

They just boasted of an outrageous price.

Therefore, there were no people involved in shooting or even archery, which boasted a high price compared to play time.

On the other hand, my steps were already heading towards the shooting range because I was running out of money.

A middle-aged man who works part-time in a busy place and manages an incredibly leisurely shooting range and archery range. He approaches a man who appears to be the boss.

"You want to give it a try?"

The look in your eyes is like looking at a tiger.

"Yes. It's 6,000 won, right? Here."

I also took out some cash in advance for situations like this.

When I handed over King Sejong, who was covered in green, the boss quickly returned the money and was ready to shoot at any time.

"Jihoon. Do you know how to shoot?"

Nayoung, who I don't know when came, is watching from the side, sweating profusely.

She was shaking her school uniform top and making a hand fan with her other hand to cool off.

"Oh, Mr. Wallet. Is this your first time shooting? Or have you shot somewhere before?"

Likewise, Chaeyeon, who had finished playing pom-pom, asked me while sipping a sports drink, resting her chin on the fence that had been installed for safety's sake so that no one could come closer.

"I know how to shoot, but I haven't tried shooting."

It's not a lie.

Before returning, when I went to the military, which could be called the future, I shot until I got tired of it, but since returning, I have not shot even once.

Ah... thinking about the military, I have to go one more time...?

I suddenly felt dirty.

They say if you can get rid of the military, get rid of it as much as possible, but what can you do if you have money? Still, I'm a bit unfinished, so I'll have to aim for a public interest job... or a full-time job.

After thinking about what would happen in the distant future, I left the boss who was explaining how to shoot and stood down.

"Wait a minute. The explanation isn't finished yet…"

bang!

"hmm?"

When I fired the gun, it flew in a different direction than I wanted.

In this case, either the muzzle of the gun has been messed with or the creek is not suitable.

But in the former case, there was no need to do that.

Well, it's not a separate product, and if that's the case, it means that the creek isn't right for you. If that's not the case, it means that it's just outdated or not made properly from the beginning, so there's a structural problem.

however. Even so, it is not enough to make a dent in my shooting skills.

'Because it bounced slightly diagonally to the right...'

The muzzle of the gun was lowered slightly to the left of the target.

bang!

"Oooh! Mr. Wallet! You have enlightenment!"

This time it's a hit...

"Jihoon, you're cool!"

Nayoung blushed, as if she had fallen in love again.

bang! bang! bang!

Every time a gun was fired, the bright lights on the target went out one by one.

"29 points…!"

When the magazine runs out. The president opened his mouth with an expression of disbelief.

"That's 29 points for someone who hasn't even completed the exam yet!"

It didn't make sense to score 29 points in one go with a problematic gun, even if it was my first time.

"Wow! That's so amazing!"

Nayoung, who fell in love and fell in love again and again, fell into my arms.

"This is fun... this."

I don't know about pom-pomjang, but this was fun.

"Nayoung. Do you want to try it too?"

"Me too...? I'm scared..."

"It's okay. I'm by your side, so don't worry."

"Hmm... then let's try it!"

After thinking about it, I thought it would be fun and nodded vigorously.

"I'll play one more round."

"Yeah, yeah."

The boss who accepted King Sejong again returned the money.

"Sleep, Nayoung. Hold it with both hands, let go of the eye that can see better, and close the other eye."

"like this.....?"

"Okay, you're good. Then, just lower the muzzle slightly diagonally to the left and shoot. Isn't that easy?"

"huh!"

bang!"

"Ouch!"

He was surprised when he shot it himself.

Of course, the bullets bounced off in strange places.

bang! bang! bang!

There are 29 bullets remaining. Nayoung didn't stop shooting.

In the end, I couldn't even land a single shot and had no choice but to come down from my seat with a dejected look on my face.

"Huh... I aimed well, but it didn't hit..."

"That's right. It's a shame."

"I thought I could hit at least one shot..."

Nayoung, who was very depressed, naturally fell into my arms.

She was rubbing her cheeks as if she was trying to relieve her depressed mood by rubbing her face against my chest.

"Mr. Wallet! Me too! Do you want to try it too?!"

Chaeyeon, who was watching from the side, shouted with her eyes shining brightly.

"I want to?"

"yes!"

"Seup... Isn't that the attitude of asking for a favor?"

"Boo, are you asking for a favor?"

Chae-yeon was a little embarrassed when I thought about how she was spending money like a fanatic.

Then, a smile appeared on his lips with a grumpy face.

"Then, can I also become Mr. Wallet's real girlfriend?"

What is the kid saying all of a sudden?

"As expected... Jihoon loves Chaeyeon...!"

Nayoung has a strange misunderstanding.

Oh, of course, I went back and made a lot of money. It's not that I didn't want Chaeyeon, who is still pretty and has a bright future ahead of her.

But maybe it's because Chaeyeon is like Nayoung's first friend.

Above all, I couldn't make Nayoung completely mine so that there wouldn't be a problem if I met another woman, so I have no time to turn my attention to another woman.

It was definitely like that, but Nayoung kept misunderstanding it because of Chaeyeon's playfulness.

"No, Nayoung. No."

I shook my head urgently and said.

"Tsk...! Did I get dumped...? By Mr. Wallet? Sigh."

"You shut up!"

"Hehe!"

I left behind Chaeyeon, the culprit, and made excuses to Nayoung.

"Ji-Jihoon is kind and handsome...!"

Isn't that a bit of an afterthought? Conscience pricks my heart.

"Chaeyeon is my friend, so maybe it's not that bad...?"

Something went strange.

Nayoung seemed to have finished thinking and looked at me.

"Yes! Jihoon! If Jihoon wants it, I'm fine."

"Yeah, really?"

"of course!"

I think my way of thinking is warped, but the results look good... I guess it's okay?

"Huh? What do you mean? If Mr. Wallet is okay, then Nayoung is okay?"

"That's it. Chaeyeon is also Jihoon's girlfriend… eh?!"

"It's nothing! You said you wanted to try shooting, right? Let's shoot right away!"

He covered Nayoung's mouth and started the fire.

Chaeyeon looked at me with suspicious eyes, but soon lost her attention completely and went up to her seat.

"Now, this is a gun. When you shoot this, you have to stretch your arm out. It's a gas gun, so if you put it close to your eyes, the gas will erupt and cause blindness..."

"Oooh! This is a gun! Mr. Wallet! Teach me how to shoot!"

Chaeyeon called me, ignoring the words of the owner who was chattering next to me.

Just like I did with Nayoung, I started teaching Chaeyeon how to shoot a gun.

"You have mastered it perfectly! Take a good look at this sister's shooting skills! Wallet!"

Chaeyeon, whose tone of voice suddenly changed, stretched out both arms and aimed the gun at the target.

Finally, I slowly pulled the trigger.

bang!

"...!"

I was surprised.

I never thought I'd hit it on the first shot.

But strangely, not only I but also Chaeyeon, the person who shot me, was surprised.

"Uh, huh...? Why is that right? I wasn't aiming for that?"

It turns out that the target Chaeyeon was trying to hit didn't hit, but a target somewhere else seemed to hit instead.

Still, Chaeyeon remains calm.

"Ha, hahaha! Mr. Wallet! Have you seen it? What do you think? I'm good at shooting? It's my first time and I hit it right away! Maybe I'm good at shooting?!"

Chaeyeon, who was in a good mood, fired the gun again, confident that the next bullet would also hit the target.

As a result.

"Ugh...! Why isn't it right!"

After the first shot, nothing was correct.

"Jihoon. Can I shoot too?"

Afterwards, Mijin asked for a favor.

"Yes. You can do whatever you want. The only thing you can do with a big wallet is to spend money."

"thank you."

Mijin also fired a gun.

Surprisingly, he shot it well. It was a whopping 8 points.

Perhaps it was the most fun thing she did today, so Mijin got very excited and forced Eunbi to go to the shooting range and shoot.

Eunbi miserably failed to get it right even once.

Instead of feeling regretful that he couldn't land a single shot, he breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he came down, probably because he was scared of holding a weapon called a gun in his hand.

It's cute.
