Chapter 20 – Episode 20. I Picked Up A Big-Breasted Woman On The Street (3)
What is the most important thing in coin mining?
It was a computer with superior calculation capabilities.
There were several complex reasons, but to put it very simply, it was because of the Bitcoin system.
The more computers that solve problems, the higher the difficulty of the problem proportionally, which further strengthens the security of the entire Bitcoin system.
Due to this characteristic, a computer with a much higher processing speed was important.
This was why a supercomputer was needed.
In that sense, Haruka was a talent that I desperately needed right now.
I know a little about computers, but that’s only when it comes to general PCs.
I can’t even touch computers that require such specialized technology.
‘In the first place, I can only look at parts a little, I can’t assemble them.’
But what about Haruka? Not only was she making computer parts as she pleased, but she was also building a supercomputer herself.
Moreover, looking at the computer-related books in her room, it seemed like she was self-taught.
In short, she was a genius.
‘A genius. And an incredible one at that!’
A tremendous genius that a common person with ordinary talent could not even imagine.
Even if she was very interested in computers because of her Asperger’s syndrome, she wouldn’t have been able to do such complex assembly if she wasn’t a smart person.
She was indeed a genius.
Then, why wasn’t her name known with such talent?
The answer to this was also simple in a way.
I carefully looked at the parts of the computer, which was presumed to be a supercomputer, and noticed the old parts in the computer.
‘It seems like her environment isn’t supporting her.’
What was hindering Haruka’s talent might be her family situation.
Now, Haruka’s house, where I was, was, I’m sorry to Haruka’s parents, but honestly, it wasn’t good.
Traces of poverty were visible everywhere in the house.
Old-looking tatami mats, a CRT TV, and an old house.
Although their love for their daughter was strong, they didn’t seem to have the financial means to buy expensive computer parts.
Naturally, the parts of Haruka’s supercomputer were also becoming inadequate.
And yet, she managed to complete the computer to this extent.
‘I want her.’
I wanted Haruka.
I was also quite tempted by that huge line of credit that seemed to take care of her food worries, but I was even more tempted by her brilliant talent.
Therefore, I started to think.
‘How can I win her over?’
How could I win Haruka over?
And the answer to this was surprisingly simple.
“Mother, can I have a private conversation with you for a moment?”
“Ah, yes, yes.”
I just needed to persuade Haruka’s mother.
In times like this, this big body was helpful.
If I were small like a student, I probably wouldn’t have had this conversation.
Haruka wouldn’t refuse if I asked her to work with me anyway.
She likes me, but more than that, she really likes computers. If I say she can touch computers as much as she wants, she’ll be happy.
So, the people I needed to persuade were Haruka’s parents.
Because the deeper Haruka’s love was, the more worried they would be.
In that state, where I was having a private conversation with Haruka’s mother, I spoke bluntly.
No. I was about to speak.
“Our Haruka, isn’t she strange?”
Haruka’s mother spoke first, before I could.
At first, I couldn’t understand what Haruka’s mother was saying.
No. Strange? How amazing is that ability!
But instead of immediately refuting, I decided to listen quietly to what she had to say.
“Since she was young, Haruka has been particularly interested in computers. So much so that her school teacher said that Haruka might have some strange illness. At that time, just in case, we went to the hospital, and she was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome.”
I nodded quietly.
This was roughly what I had expected. The problem was what she would say next.
“And my husband is a bit old-fashioned, so he didn’t like Haruka touching computers like this. Actually, if it was just that, it wouldn’t have been a problem, but my husband said that mental illnesses were something that only people with weak minds get, and he tried to fix Haruka with violence.”
Hearing that, I frowned deeply and said,
“No. Wait a minute. You’re saying that he hit your daughter, who has a mental illness, saying it’s because she has a weak mind?”
“Yes…”
I’ve met all sorts of people in the military, so I’m not easily surprised, but this time was an exception.
‘What kind of crazy bastard is that?’
Mental disorders were definitely not something that could be cured with violence.
Rather, it would only make it worse.
And yet, he tried to fix it with violence.
This wasn’t a problem of being old-fashioned, but of being a barbaric and violent person.
I calmed my excited emotions for a moment and asked Haruka’s mother to continue.
A rather long story followed, but to summarize, it was like this.
Haruka was ostracized at school for her strange behavior and dropped out, her father’s violence worsened, and as a result.
“…Due to the increasingly severe violence, I eventually divorced my husband and moved out with Haruka, and I’ve been raising Haruka alone.”
In the end, for Haruka’s sake, Haruka’s mother divorced her husband and raised Haruka alone. That was about five years ago. When Haruka was 17 years old.
This was the story that Haruka had.
After hearing everything that Haruka’s mother had told me, I took her hand and said,
“You must have gone through a lot alone.”
“No… My daughter suffered more.”
Her voice was strangely tearful as she said that.
I looked closely at Haruka’s mother.
Haruka’s mother seemed to be from a good family.
Her tone was very refined, and the way she treated someone who looked young like me with such politeness showed that.
She was even quite beautiful. A woman who could still turn heads anywhere, and even her chest was as big as Haruka’s.
But if you looked closely at her, you could see traces of hardship.
Wrinkles that showed signs of hardship, thin arms, and rough, hardened hands.
I could tell.
She had sacrificed so much for her daughter.
She was a truly amazing person.
How many people in this world would do this much for their daughter?
“First of all, what I wanted to say was not that Haruka is strange.”
Since she was such a person, I needed to tell her the truth.
“Rather, her talent is genius-level.”
“My daughter’s?”
“Yes.”
I answered without hesitation and explained how great Haruka’s talent was.
The more she listened to my words, the more Haruka’s mother looked like she was wondering, ‘Is that really true?’
After roughly explaining Haruka’s talent, I said to Haruka’s mother.
“To be blunt, I want to work with Haruka.”
“Work, as in…?”
“You can think of it as an industry that uses the high-speed computing capabilities of computers.”
“What is that…”
To that question, I answered with a helpless expression.
“It’s a concept that’s quite difficult to explain right now.”
“…..”
After hearing my words, Haruka’s mother pondered for a moment.
It was natural.
It was about her daughter’s future. Of course, she would have to think deeply about it.
I said to Haruka’s mother, who was pondering.
“Of course, I’m not saying we should do it right now. I still need some time to work, and I don’t have a proper plan yet. So, I’ll give you time to think it over properly.”
I said that, got up from my seat, and said,
“I’ll give you about a week, so please think about it during that time. And.”
Of course, even while saying that, I didn’t forget the most important thing.
“Haruka’s talent is definitely not something that should be ignored by others.”
After saying that, I was about to leave.
“Wait a minute!”
That was until Haruka’s mother stopped me.
I thought Haruka’s mother was going to give me an answer right away, but.
“Will you decide while I take a bath? So, please wait a little longer.”
It seemed like that was too much to ask.
Still, if it was just the time it took to take a bath, it was worth waiting.
Well, my body was dirty anyway.
“Okay.”
So, I accepted Haruka’s mother’s offer.
“Ugh! It’s cold.”
And so, I entered the bathroom and was humming while waiting for the shower water to warm up.
Creak.
If it weren’t for the sudden sound of the bathroom door opening.
I turned my head towards the sound coming from the door, and there,
“Let’s shower together.”
With her large breasts barely covered by a small towel, Haruka was approaching me while saying that.
I couldn’t help but be flustered again at that sight.
‘What is this…’
Of course, regardless of my fluster, Haruka came up to me and asked,
“Do you not like it?”
There probably isn’t a man who would say no to that question.
“No. I fucking love it.”
There wouldn’t be one in this world.
