Calibrating the NTR Drift in the Light Novel - MTL

'Isn't this…?'

Choi Soo-yeon was embarrassed inside and sweating profusely.

Who is Han Seong-jin?

He was the leader among the Jinsu Higher Education Academy and a famous gangster not only in Jinsugyo but also in the surrounding area.

Although Choi Soo-yeon herself is part of the second-year Iljin group, she just needs the sign of 'Iljin Choi Soo-yeon', and she does not like and has never participated in Iljin activities. Br〉

Of course, I didn't really like people who were really outgoing, so I didn't really consider the gang of girls I hung out with as friends.

However, out of all the group, the most unresponsive third-year student, Saengyang, said he would rehearse the dating course with him.

She was planning to leave, but Choi Soo-yeon was quite embarrassed and stuttered as things turned out differently than she thought.

"Seo, senior? Ah, ahaha… Of course, I'd like to help if I can, but as you can see, I have a part-time job in the afternoons-"

"I'm starting that part-time job starting today, right? Our part-time job is from Monday to Thursday, so Fridays and weekends are free."

"Oh, that's right! Look at my mind! But I'm a very boring kid, so you'll regret it if you go with me. It's better for you to take a friend of mine who can put you in the right mood rather than a boring kid like me…"

"No, just looking at what you're saying now seems interesting enough."

"Ugh… Does it really have to be me? I really have a hard time finding time…"

"If it's hard to go, I'll suggest something else instead."

At that moment, Suyeon Choi's eyes lit up.

Hehe. It's the art of negotiation! At first, she presents conditions that the other party will never accept and then pretends to compromise, but then she presents her real purpose!

If you think that just because I look like this and hang out with a bunch of kids, my hair will be just as bad, you're wrong! Well, let's take a look!'

"Yes, what can I do for you?"

"You know that the kids and I regularly meet up on the weekends, right?"

A gathering is by no means a healthy social gathering. It is more like a gangster gathering where all the male and female gangsters from each grade, from the first to the third year of Jinsoo School, gather to drink and smoke in an empty lot.

After the drinking bar passes, the king game… Sodom and Gomorrah is where men and women are matched through the king game, where the person who will give orders is determined, and each person goes to a motel, PlayStation room, DVD room, or private room they have found and has a 1:1 or orgy sex party. Feast of.

Suyeon Choi had never participated in that meeting, but she knew very well what happened there through her Iljin friends.

I'm sick of hearing dirty talk about her having a stomach ache from dealing with three of her older brothers at the same time, or about staying up all night with a handsome guy she had a fortune in.

Her expression stiffened for a moment, but Choi Soo-yeon quickly regained control of her expression and responded as if nothing had happened.

"Yes, I know."

"I think we'll be meeting again next weekend, and I'm going to announce there that I won't be going to the meeting anymore."

"Oh, that's right. But that's with me-"

"All you have to do is come along and pretend to be my girlfriend. The others will understand if I tell them that I'm going to stay away for a while because I have a girlfriend. How about that?"

"Which date course do you like!? Daehakro? Hongdae? Garosu-gil? Itaewon? Just tell us! I'll follow you wherever you go, personally escort you, and even plan a course for you!"

At 10 p.M., After finishing her part-time job that day, Soo-yeon Choi opened the door of her empty house and fell down on the bed.

"Ah… What is this fierceness? I'll just order people around like I always do and take other people's money. What kind of part-time job is it that Han Seong-jin doesn't fit in? And of course, it's where I work…"

Choi Soo-yeon, who was caught up in Han Seong-jin and eventually accepted the condition he first suggested of 'accompanying her to the date course rehearsal', sighed deeply.

Since she started living in her own room, she hasn't had much to stress about, but that wasn't the case today.

Moreover, considering that I would be in the same room with Han Seong-jin at least 4 times a week for 6 hours a day, I didn't think that would be the case in the future.

To forget about the bad things, Sooyeon Choi took out her cell phone and sent a message to someone.

[Me]: Senior Youngbae~♥ What are you doing~?

The target is Gong Young-bae, a third-year boy whom she secretly likes.

In order to fully reveal her feelings, she even sent a heart emoticon, but Gong Young-bae did not respond for a while.

"Are you busy…?"

In fact, it wasn't once or twice that Gong Young-bae's reply was late, so she was used to it, but inside she felt a little disappointed.

The answer from Gong Young-bae came about 20 minutes later.

[Senior Youngbae♥]: I was talking on the phone with Eunji

After seeing Gong Young-bae's reply, Su-yeon Choi felt even more hurt.

She said, 'She even sent me a heart, but she said she was talking on the phone with another woman. All I had to do was lie about taking a shower or studying or something like that… She's being unnecessarily honest.'

Afterward, Choi Soo-yeon had a few small talks with Gong Young-bae as a way to relieve stress.

And she felt good again at the thought that she would soon be able to separate her most powerful enemy from Gong Yeong-bae.

When I think about that time, I was able to endure ridiculous things like rehearsing a date course with Han Seong-jin right away.

'Yes, Choi Su-yeon! Cheer up! If I just eliminate Lee Yu-ri, who has the cheat key called Childhood Friend, then I win!'

Judging from what they say, it seems like only Han Seong-jin cares about Lee Yu-ri, and it is obvious that Lee Yu-ri, as always, hates Han Seong-jin, who is a group of one-liners.

Her actions in trying to connect two unlikely unions were a bit prickly on her conscience, but the girl who was thirsty for her love didn't see anything like that.

Finally, I was freed from the penalty for cleaning up after school and was able to go home at 3pm when all school classes were over.

Of course, now I have a part-time job waiting for me that takes much longer than cleaning up after school and requires me to tackle it more seriously.

Lee Yu-ri, who didn't know that I had started a part-time job, glanced at me as I was packing my bag and spoke to me.

"It's good, I don't have to clean up after myself anymore."

"Well, how nice. I must have cleaned my classroom more often than I cleaned my house. I'm tired of just looking at it now."

"So now… Are you going to go straight home?"

"That's right. I decided to live steadily from now on. Don't worry, it won't leak anywhere."

"Who cares?! I just…"

"Just what?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Then go home quickly. I have to do my student council work."

"You've worked hard. Then, good luck, student council president~"

…

While walking down the hallway leading to the student council room, Lee Yu-ri looked through the window toward the playground where students were leaving school.

And I muttered quietly to myself.

"… There's no one waiting anymore."

Perhaps because she had gotten used to going home from school with Han Seong-jin, she was feeling a little lonely.

…

After arriving home, unpacking my bags and changing into civilian clothes, I lay down on the blanket and rested for a while before heading to the convenience store where I worked on time.

On the way to the convenience store, in all corners of the alley, you could see clearly gangsters, both men and women, sitting in groups, pointing at the convenience store and talking.

I checked the time on my phone and laughed.

'It's time to try smoking cigarettes.'

After school, between 3 and 4 p.M. Is the time when groups of people most often try to smoke cigarettes at nearby convenience stores.

"Senior, are you here?"

When I arrived at the convenience store, Suyeon Choi greeted me with a smile.

It seems like a pretty business smile right now.

"You came early. But is the manager not there today?"

"Because I found a part-time job, the manager missed his regular working hours. The store manager said he would come back after dinner, so we can just do our jobs in the meantime."

"Okay, then I'll take care of replenishing the inventory. Just give me the settlement fee."

"Yes~"

We immediately started doing our own tasks, and as I was taking out snacks and drinks from the warehouse and putting them on the shelf, I suddenly thought of the gangsters that were everywhere on the way to the convenience store and spoke to Suyeon Choi.

"Hey Choi Su-yeon, let me ask you something."

"What is it?"

"Aren't the beautiful people here coming to smoke cigarettes?"

As soon as she heard those words, Suyeon Choi let out a deep sigh.

It seems like a lot has happened.

"Don't even talk about it. When it's time to start work, more than 10 teams come in an hour. There are more than one group of kids who make a fuss when you tell them they are going to check IDs, and sometimes the bad guys don't even try to hide it and even threaten you?"

"Threat?"

"Yes! My senior is the best at Eunbong Gonggyo, but he just said things like selling and telling me to be careful walking at night… The person who worked there before also quit because he was stressed out."

"Oh. Is it because you came from Eunbong Academy? Are other academies like that too?"

"Yes. Even though this place is big, it's not so much that I can't work alone, but that's why they use two people in the afternoon. That's why the manager was working until yesterday."

"Really? That's good. You won't have to worry about that for a while."

"…?"

Choi Soo-yeon is a member of the Iljin group, but she has never really played with the Iljin group, so she doesn't really know how good Han Seong-jin is.

All she knows is her name, her face, and that I'm Jinsu-kyo-chan.

And, fortunately or unfortunately, the opportunity to prove that my work at this convenience store was a good thing for Choi Soo-yeon came very quickly.

"Over there."

"Huh? Eh…"

Several male students with various hair colors and hairstyles entered the convenience store, and upon seeing them, Sooyeon Choi looked like she had been bitten by a bug.

"3 packs of ESSE Prime and Marlboro Red."

"You guys came a few days ago too, right? What's your ID?"

As soon as Choi Su-yeon finished speaking, those guys created an atmosphere of fear.

"Oh shit, you're annoying me again. We're adults."

A group of gangsters immediately surrounded the counter and threatened Choi Soo-yeon, talking informally to her.

"What are you going to do if we won't pay? We'll give you money, so all you have to do is take out the cigarettes. Looking at it, it looks like that corrupt guy who was there until yesterday isn't there either. If you don't want to get screwed, why don't you just quietly pay?"

As it is a dirty neighborhood with a lot of gangsters, they started threatening the clerk openly.

If Choi Su-yeon had been alone, she would have been unable to move.

But those guys chose the wrong timing.

As I came out of the warehouse, I strained my neck a little and spoke.

"What are you guys doing?"
