Chapter 24 – Episode 24
“Son, what did you bring so much? You can come with your bare hands.”
The mother asked.
Sirloin, pork belly, fruit, chocolate, etc.
Jinseong bought quite a lot of food.
“Thanks to my eldest son, my mouth will be strong. “Thank you, son.”
Your tired complexion became brighter.
She was happy to see her son after a long time. She was even happier because her son brought her some delicious meat.
[Likeability: MAX]
[Maternal love: MAX]
Her mother’s favorability was great.
“What about your father?”
“You said earlier that you were on your way home from work? “He will arrive within 30 minutes at the latest.”
“Aha.”
“Wait a minute. I’ll make spicy soybean paste stew that my mom said my son wanted to eat. When your father comes, let’s eat meat and soybean paste together.”
“Yes.”
My mother was busy moving around.
[Inner thoughts: My son’s happy face has become half empty.]
[Inner thoughts: Dieting is good, but it shouldn’t hurt your body.]
[Inner heart: I hope to pay off all the loans quickly. Then I can buy my son an apartment.]
[Inner heart: The kids’ father will really like it. My eldest son comes to my house to play, and I bring beef and soju.]
Mother’s inner thoughts.
The more I read his inner thoughts, the more a smile appeared on Jinseong’s lips.
“Ah?! Right. Voice phishing is serious these days.”
“Huh? Didn’t I tell you last time? Voice phishing is serious?”
“Yes, I told you.”
It was brought out again on purpose.
“I heard that my close friend’s mother also suffered this time. They say she was deceived and lost 15 million won.”
“Oh? Really? “Did you get scammed out of 15 million won?”
“Yes, but I guess the 15 million won was moving money. “My brother quickly made up the 10 million won, and your father made up the remaining 5 million won.”
Actually, it wasn’t a story about a close friend. It was a story about their future.
It was an appropriate dramatization and explanation of the misfortune that would come in the future.
‘I’m sorry.’
I was pricked by my conscience. Lying wasn’t all that refreshing.
‘But I can’t help it.’
I was in no position to choose between means and methods. Voice phishing had to be prevented at all costs.
“Voice phishing is a bad thing…”
∴∴∴
My father came home from work.
“It’s been a long time.”
“How have you been?”
“So, you’ve lost a lot of weight?”
“Yes, I’m on a diet.”
The conversation was over.
It was an extremely simple conversation.
[Inner thoughts: hehe, you look a lot better after losing weight.]
[My inner thoughts: I didn’t do anything for you, but I grew up properly to the point where I deserved it.]
It’s been a while since we had dinner together.
I grilled beef. It was served with my mother’s soybean paste stew and various kimchi.
The first home-cooked meal I had in a long time was delicious. I emptied two bowls.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going to digest it and do some exercise.”
“Okay? “Please be careful.”
In my heart, I wanted to sleep.
Actually, I was so tired.
I worked out at the gym in the morning. I worked all day at work. I took the intercity bus once and the city bus three times. Furthermore, I went to the supermarket, Yuseol, and Kono.
I ate so much that I was half exhausted. I wonder if I will fall asleep the moment I lie down.
‘But I have to go.’
Exercise was a must. You have to do it even if you’re tired, you have to do it even if it hurts, and you have to do it even if you don’t have enough time.
There were no exceptions.
“Oppa, I’m going with you.”
“You too?”
“Wow, I ate too much. “I think I need to digest it.”
“Okay.”
Jinseong left home with Yuseol.
“Oppa, I’m going to visit Kono.”
“I heard you feel bloated inside?”
“When you sing, you can digest everything.”
“Come play for a little while”
“Woong, do you want to go with me?”
I flatly refused. Exercise was 100 times more important than Kono.
Jinseong found a vacant lot nearby.
I put on my earphones. She played a song. She warmed up by stretching.
I ran slowly. Cold air filled my lungs.
‘In the evening… Outside… It’s quite nice to run while listening to music.’
It was quite charming. She was healed. She especially liked the cold air.
‘Running is… Surprisingly… I think it’s an attractive and good exercise.’
I ran hard. I ran for 1 hour. It wasn’t very difficult.
“You ran for an entire hour?”
“Ha, ha, huh? When did you come?”
“About five minutes ago?”
“Ha, yeah, ha, it only took 1 hour.”
“Amazing. It’s cool.”
Yu Seol raised the double pole.
“Oppa, next time we meet, you will be a normal person, right?”
“You’re still a normal person? Why do you make people abnormal?”
“Oh, he’s definitely not a normal person. What makes you normal? Look at this belly fat. “Is this a normal person?”
“Under? Look at this gas? Hey, I guess I’ll give you pocket money now.”
The pocket money confiscation skill was cast.
“Oh?! Too bad! Sorry. It’s my fault. My brother is a normal person. Your brother is handsome. Please forgive. “I was really wrong.”
Food.
I watched it because it was cute.
I took a shower. Dried her hair I lay down on the bed.
‘It’s comfortable.’
I picked up my cell phone.
I launched KakaoTalk. There were KakaoTalk messages from many people.
[Hayeon Park: There are too many assignments;;]
[Park Ha-yeon: I feel like my head is melting;;]
[Park Ha-yeon: I hate using my head.]
[Park Ha-yeon: I want to eat dakgalbi.]
[Me: Thank you for your hard work. Cheer up. ^^]
[Me: Do you want to go eat dakgalbi again?]
[Me: I’ll buy it for you this time.]
[Me: It was really delicious last time.]
After having a meal together.
Jin-seong and Park Ha-yeon often exchanged KakaoTalk messages.
We spoke to each other comfortably and had small daily conversations.
[Park Ha-yeon: Not right now.]
[Park Ha-yeon: Because of assignments and exams;;]
[Park Ha-yeon: You can do it after the exam.]
[Me: ㅇㅋ Tell me after the exam.]
[Me: I’ll buy you dakgalbi.]
[Hayeon Park: Because of the assignment;; I’m busy, so I’ll dive;;]
It seems really busy and difficult.
Then, I checked Choi Ayoung’s KakaoTalk.
[Choi Ayoung: hahaOppa]
[Ayoung Choi: Mom’s surgery was successful.]
[Ayoung Choi: It’s all thanks to my brother handing out lottery tickets.]
[Ayoung Choi: Thank you. Thank you so much. Ayoung will repay you.]
[Me: Thank goodness. I’m so glad ^^]
[Me: I hope your mother recovers quickly and is discharged from the hospital.]
[Me: No. You don’t have to thank me. You don’t have to reciprocate.]
[Me: You must have been anxious waiting for the results of the surgery, but you had a really hard time.]
Did the surgery go well?
It was fortunate.
No reply came. It looks like he was asleep. Usually Choi A-young goes to bed early and wakes up early.
She put down her cell phone.
Closed her eyes
‘However…’
Suddenly a question arose.
‘What is a happy life?’
Other questions arose.
‘What is a successful life?’
What is a wonderful life?
What is the standard for success?
What must I do to be successful?
How can my family become happy?
‘What do I really want?’
There was also a question I had for a while.
There is also a question that comes to mind while looking at the rumor.
My mind is complicated.
‘I’m tired…’
I fell asleep without being able to answer.
∴∴∴
Jinseong’s mother, Jiyoung Kim, was busy working in the kitchen of her home.
She was a cook. She went to work from dawn and made a white face.
‘It’s hot.’
Unlike the cooler weather.
It was a hot kitchen. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead.
‘Hmm? ‘Who is it?’
A call came in.
“Yes, hello.”
I received it without thinking.
– Hello? This is Happy Hospital. Are you Minseong Yoo’s mother?
“Yes, that’s right? I am Minseong’s mother. What’s going on?”
– You’re right, Mom. She said, “My mother is in big trouble.” Minseong Yoo just got into a serious car accident. One hour is urgent.
“Yes? Yes?! Ooh, are we Minseong? Well, is that really true? “Is Minseong really seriously hurt?”
– Yes, one o’clock is urgent. You need surgery urgently. If you do not receive surgery, your life is at risk.
“Oh, no! Uh, what should I do? Yes, surgery! Uh, uh, please do the surgery quickly! Quickly! Minseong cannot die!”
– Yes, mother, calm down. Calm down and listen to me carefully. The surgery cost is 15 million won. If you transfer the money to the hospital account, you can have the surgery right away. I can buy it.
15 million won? All I have to do is transfer 15 million won? Minseong can get surgery for 15 million won?
She can be safe without dying?
My vision narrowed. The accident stopped.
“Oh, I see…”
It was the car I was trying to answer. I was about to reply that I would send it to him. I tried to answer that I would transfer 15 million won right away.
But suddenly.
[Mom, I heard voice phishing is all the rage these days.]
Jinseong’s words came to mind.
[Mom, hospital bills are paid in arrears.]
[Mom, the police don’t ask for money.]
[Mom, all requests for bank transfers are scams.]
“Now, just a moment. “I will call Minseong’s school and get back to you.”
– Yes? Mother? One o’clock is urgent right now. I don’t have time to call the school. You need to transfer 15 million won quickly. Only then can Minseong survive.
“It only takes one minute.”
– Mother, don’t do that…
I hung up. I urgently called my second son’s school.
– Minseong went to school.
– I didn’t get into a car accident.
– Yes, yes, I am healthy.
Only then did Jiyoung Kim realize.
It was a voice phishing call. She almost got scammed. Fortunately, she was able to avoid fraud with Jinseong’s help.
∴∴∴
Jinseong was sitting in the bathroom.
“Huh?”
I was reading the misfortune diary again.
“What is it?”
[Misfortune Diary]
[Page 1]
The first page of Misfortune Diary has been deleted.
[Page 2]
Similarly, side 2 was also deleted.
[Page 3]
Only three sides remained.
A phone call came from her mother.
– Son, Mom almost got voice phished today.
-If my son hadn’t warned me about voice phishing, he would have been hit.
– Are they scary? They used it based on human psychology?
It was fortunate.
I was truly fortunate.
‘Misfortune was missed.’
I breathed a sigh of relief.
The possibility of being scammed out of 15 million won has disappeared. The chance of my father getting seriously hurt has also disappeared.
‘Phew, now I just have to solve one thing.’
Pages 1 and 2 of the Misfortune Diary have been deleted.
But there are still three sides left.
I read page 3 again.
[Page 3]
[Worried. Unstable. It’s been a week since Ayoung went missing. A week ago, I decided to go to the zoo with Ayoung. We were definitely in touch until morning.]
I narrowed my eyebrows.
