Episode 189 Aftermath (4)
Before the mid-term attack test, Bikir came for a part-time job interview.
After hearing about Vikir’s financial situation, Sinclair took Vikir to the president’s office.
Bikir thought quietly to himself.
‘It’s not time to use Xindi Wendy’s financial line yet. I’d rather not make any contact until ‘that moment’ arrives.’
Xindi Wendy’s enormous funds have something else to use later. at a very important moment.
It was better to refrain from such trivial financial transactions, since contact with her should never be revealed until then.
Because the best route to discovering the identity of the agents was to track the source of funds.
“… … I should keep it as a hidden card for the bourgeois family.”
Bikir murmured quietly to himself.
Then, Sinclair, who had been walking slightly in front of him, turned his head with a puzzled expression.
“Brother, what did you just say?”
“hmm. It is nothing.”
“… … okay? Did I hear you wrong?”
Sinclair tilted her head once, then returned to the original topic.
“This cafe is such a sweet part-time job. The hourly wage is a bit less, but there is no truth in the academy, and the work is comfortable. Also, the boss allowed me to make and eat what I want to eat if there are any leftover ingredients. It’s close to the dormitory and lecture building, and there aren’t many people at night, so I can study on my own, but I can’t sleep. And above all, the uniform is pretty.”
Sinclair babblingly explained to Bikir the advantages of working part-time at this café.
She added in passing at the end.
“… … I wish I could work part-time with my brother. I think it will be fun.”
but.
Contrary to Sinclair’s expectations, the cafe owner’s attitude was adamant.
“no. We only pick female part-timers.”
Mr. Pringles, the owner of the café ‘Lazy Noon, Mustache’, was a middle-aged gentleman with a thick mustache.
He had his own firm philosophy and beliefs in cafe management, and one of them was that ‘part-time job only hires women unconditionally’.
They say that only a woman’s meticulous and delicate touch can brew the best coffee.
In front of the gender barrier, Bikire had to suffer the inevitable fate of being eliminated.
However, Sinclair was a brave schoolgirl who did not give in to walls.
You just have to break down the wall. With a weapon stronger than a wall.
“But boss! Does my older brother look like this?”
Sinclair approached from the back of Bikir, who was sitting in a chair, and stretched out both hands to hug Bikir.
And with Sinclair’s hands, Bikir’s bangs go up.
Swoop-
As the bangs fell back, Bikir’s bare face was revealed.
“… … Whoa. That would be a little different.”
Mr. Pringles ran his hand through his mustache once slowly.
Soon, his mouth opened.
“Minimum hourly wage and 3 months probationary period. During the probationary period, only 70% of the salary is paid. If that’s okay.”
Then Sinclair turned to Bikir and smiled broadly.
“Brother! This is a very generous condition! This cafe doesn’t hire male part-timers at all… … .”
“I will not.”
But Bikir shook his head.
In the yard where there is no time, it is said that it is a probation at the minimum wage. That way, you won’t have time to go around killing demons.
In the first place, Bikir had no intention of working part-time here.
However, I was curious about how much children these days get paid on an hourly basis, so I asked.
‘To deal with the tuition problem, I must find a part-time job that can make high profits in a short period of time.’
It was Vikir who reminded once again that it is difficult to earn money as an ordinary Alvaro.
‘What part-time job should I do? Monster hunting would be the most exciting, right?’
When the midterm exam season is completely over and the holiday season comes, I will go hunting monsters in the area.
Of course, making money itself wasn’t that difficult because Vikir knew exactly which dungeons were hidden near the ecliptic and which monsters lurk there.
But Sinclair, who has no way of knowing Vikir’s thoughts, just tilts her head.
at that time.
“Chemm!”
Mr. Pringles cleared his throat for some reason.
He said, sweeping his mustache with a hand that was a little quicker than before.
“Then, without a probationary period, just at the minimum wage. How is it?”
“?”
Suddenly, Mr. Pringles’ words changed.
Both Vikir and Sinclair tilted their heads.
“No.”
Bikir shook his head resolutely again, and Mr. Pringles’ fingertips gripped his moustache trembled once more.
“Yeah, then without a probationary period. I’ll add 500 gold to the minimum wage. how is it?”
“No.”
“Ugh! If so, add 1,000 gold to your hourly wage!”
“No.”
“Ouch! In that case, I’ll pay you 1.5 times your hourly wage!”
“No.”
“Kyaaaaagh! If so, double it! Double the hourly wage! work!”
“I don’t like it.”

Seeing Mr. Pringles tearing at his mustache, Bikir frowned.
At this point, it was Sinclair who was taken aback.
She stopped Mr. Pringles with an awkward smile.
“Oh, boss. I’m sorry. If my hyung were there, there would be a lot of female customers. Right?”
“huh? is it? Ah well, that’s probably the case too. I didn’t even think of that.”
“yes? If it wasn’t for that, why would you want to hire Hyungah at twice the hourly wage… … .”
“Well, our cafe has pretty uniforms.”
“Yes, it is. Our cafe uniforms are only for women.”
“That’s right.”
“… … ?”
well anyway
Bikir decided not to work part-time at a cafe.
As she left the president’s office, Sinclair felt sorry for her.
“All the good part-time jobs around here only hire women. Cafés, theaters, and bookstores are good places to work.”
“How about dressing up as a woman? It might not be that bad.”
Bianca, who was next to me, said with a rare serious expression on her face.
But Bikir quietly shakes his head.
“Okay. Because I already have a part-time job in mind.”
“to? where?”
Sinclair opened her rabbit eyes.
I couldn’t say that it was a part-time job hunting monsters, so Bikir just kept his mouth shut.
at that time.
Dolores, who had been waiting while eating the parfait, suddenly stood up from the table.
“Oh, no! Another ‘copycat’!?”
She was shivering, holding in her hand the evening paper that the postman owl had just thrown through the café window.
[Breaking News] The Hound of the Night. An evil deed that knows no end!? / Views: 3,869
-The worst villain of all time, ‘The Hound of the Night’, once again revealed his fangs.
Last dawn, the students of the Varangian Training Center who came on a school trip to the ecliptic were attacked by night hounds and suffered great damage… …
00 minor injuries, 00 serious injuries… … Among them, the Varangian’s training center ‘… … ‘ Also included… …
On the other hand, the night hounds did not target the Varangian students from the beginning, but originally had a different purpose. …
Meanwhile, no fingerprints were detected in the ‘broken vodka bottle’, the only piece of evidence left at the scene… …

Dolores looked at the newspaper and got angry.
“This is not the work of the night hound! Someone is copying him! A real villain!”
She hurriedly left her seat and approached Bikir, Sinclair, and Bianca.
“Sorry guys. I have something urgent to do, so I think I need to go. Let’s talk about the attack test again later.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Sinclair and Bianca nodded meekly.
Bikir, meanwhile, was a little admiring Dolores’ keen eye.
‘Did you notice that it was the copycat’s work? That’s amazing.’
Bikir also read the newspaper article Dolores had left behind.
It seemed that some madman was running wild outside.
‘No, not one, but two?’
two copycats. One has been inactive lately, and the other is still actively running around.
I live by avoiding stares, but my gaze has become more and more focused.
The pros and cons of this were clear.
The advantages are that Bikir’s alibi has become more and more clear, the investigation has become confused, and if you do well, you can blame the copycat for Bikir’s guilt.
However, even with all these advantages, there was one major drawback.
‘It means that when I act as a night hound, my vigilance becomes more strict.’
Doing so could also hinder assassination.
The more vigilant the social leaders were, the more the number of guards would increase.
“… … .”
Bikir made a quiet decision alone.
If possible, it is toward eliminating copycats and fake night hounds.
‘First of all, after taking a good look at the attack test tomorrow, I’m going to catch the copycat.’
You have to find a part-time job, you have to study, you have to take exams, you have to assassinate, you have to catch and kill copycats… … .
Bikir’s college life is really busy.
