Chapter 32 – Episode 32. Conception Later
***
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday…
Time passed while I studied like crazy, taking classes at academy, preparing for and reviewing.
Thursday soon.
A week is short.
Thursday already.
Uh? That’s right?
‘Wow, fuck.’
I said to myself, but since I was brushing my teeth, it came out in a slightly different way.
“Ugh~, Fugu.”
I finish my classes in the morning, then I am brushing my teeth after lunch.
Brushing my teeth, I looked outside through the window.
-Tsukutsukutsuku…
The window at the end of the hallway is right next to the men’s room.
The men’s restroom is located at one end of the hallway.
You can often see men and women brushing their teeth in front of the window here or near the toilet in order not to block the way for people going back and forth to the bathroom to do business.
This is because the size of the school toilet is limited.
It wasn’t a particularly crowded time, so I didn’t have to worry about the street, but I stood in front of the window for a while to look out the window.
I took one look at the many buildings outside the window.
Since I am immersed in learning all day every day, I wonder if I should give my eyes a break.
Looking at buildings in the distance, try securing a distant view once in a while.
-Tsukutsukutsuku…
As I brushed my teeth like that, I could hear the women behind me coming out of the bathroom and walking around.
The women’s restroom is a little further inside than the men’s restroom, but it’s close to the street.
I had my back on them.
I was looking out the window.
Also, the window next to the bathroom was close to the men’s room, so I was blocked by the open door of the men’s room.
The women didn’t notice me and seemed to be having a conversation in front of the women’s bathroom.
“Did you come to study group?”
“Really?”
“Uh. I’m the leader. I got an email from Kwon Se-ah.”
The woman who said she was the leader of a study group continued.
“But you know that person. It didn’t look like we were in our group. Ah~. I’m so sorry.”
“He? Who?”
“Hey~! That crazy bastard.”
“Oh~!”
“Ha… It’s not on our group list.”
“Your name was Lee Jin-hyeok, right?”
“Uh. That’s right.”
I stopped brushing my teeth while listening to them.
There is no place to wonder how the hell they know my name.
It’s not a courtesy, how…
Their conversation continued a little further.
“Uh… Can’t we switch to a group with that guy?”
“Yeah. Actually, I asked Kwon Se-ah to change groups, but he said no. Ha… I’m just afraid I won’t study.”
“Wow! Really? Did you try to betray me by yourself and get into that respectable group?”
“Ah… I envy the girls in that group. I’m not going to study regularly just to see that guy’s face. I’m sure my studies will go well too.”
After talking to that point, the women’s voices gradually drifted away from the front of the bathroom.
I came out from behind the men’s room door and looked in their direction.
The view from the back, moving away from the restroom towards the classroom, I don’t know who both are.
It is natural not to know There are several hundred students, and there are few people I am familiar with.
Making connections is because I almost excluded and only studied.
They seemed to talk more about me as they headed towards the classroom.
“Ah~! I really want to date a handsome boyfriend like that. Even for the sake of the 2nd generation, that kind of sperm is perfect~! You have to conceive of me…”
“Hey~, crazy, crazy! Hohoho! What if someone hears it~?”
In the absence of people, they were talking about strong things.
When I heard that, I almost spilled toothpaste bubbles on the floor while brushing my teeth.
Imagine even imagining implanting my sperm…
Hmm…
Actually, I felt it while playing with a lot of girls from the old days, but if you openly play with a girl or a guy, I don’t think either one will be pushed back, and it seems to be similar.
The drip of wanting to be conceived by me was the first fresh word I had heard in my life.
She didn’t know that I’d heard that while brushing my teeth.
I brushed my teeth a little more, then went back to the bathroom to rinse my mouth, and looked in the mirror.
I am in the big mirror.
A lot of, maybe most, women want me.
Hmm…
Wait a moment.
I’ll meet you to your heart’s content after passing the exam and returning to Gangnam.
After rinsing my mouth, I washed my hands once, wiped them with a hand towel, and came out of the bathroom again.
Then I went back to the classroom and resumed my studies.
Thursday.
Self-study after lunch, followed by afternoon classes.
It’s pretty hard to hear.
Still, it seems that being able to listen to it is also an advantage of taking real lectures at an academy.
This is because in the middle of an online lecture, you can pause at a difficult moment.
I listened to the class again until 6 o’clock like that.
The time to end has come.
While taking classes at academies, there are moments in the middle where it feels like time doesn’t go by quite a bit, but when you look past it, another day passes before you know it.
Shortly before 6 o’clock, I remembered Hochang’s words.
Hochang visited me at one hour during break time. And he said, ‘We have the first study meeting today, so let’s go together after it’s over’.
So after the class was over, I left the classroom and waited for a while.
Crowds stand in line and come out.
This time I came out a little early.
The crowds of people waiting in line were still teeming with me, even though I was relatively late.
And after a while, a shout came out.
I spoke to Ho-chang, who came a little later than me in the crowd.
“Uh~, Hochang-ah. Can’t you see the screen well from where you were sitting?”
Today, Hochang listened to class sitting in the very back seat in the middle of the crowd of people in the huge lecture hall.
I was seated 3 spaces away from the window slightly behind the middle on the left side, but it was quite ahead compared to the front window.
He answered with a shout.
“Oh, that’s it, too, I’m so sleepy today.”
“Haha, on the first day, you looked really sleepy even when I was sitting next to you in class.”
Since the first day, I have never been next to Hochang.
I have no greed for a good seat, so I tend to arrive at the classroom about 5 minutes before class starts, but even if I arrive at that time, the seats with two seats in the middle are naturally dry.
In addition, good seats are already depleted because people come late or come late.
“Really? Oh, I can’t sleep well at night, so I sleep while playing games.”
“What game are you playing?”
“Lol. Oh, I was going to play within this week. It’s not going well.”
“Um~.”
There were times when I was immersed in rolls too, but I don’t anymore.
My account has become dormant.
Games are fun, but I really want to play with beautiful girls after I get a decent job so I don’t fall behind.
The game is really fun at that moment.
But it’s kind of a pity that there are no memories left after it passes.
On the other hand, the memories of playing with the beauties occupy a part of the beautiful album in my heart.
That album is now at the level of an encyclopedia, but after the civil service exam, I plan to increase it to the level of the Tripitaka Koreana.
“Shall we go?”
“Hmm.”
Hochang and I talked while walking.
“Did you say room 304?”
“Uh. Jinhyeok, aren’t you curious, members?”
“Which one?”
Joe is just George… I was curious about something, so I said.
Then the relief window said.
“What the heck~ There are 3 men, but there are also 3 women~”
The slogan was to say that the woman was expected.
As for me, I had no intention of dating the opposite sex under the current situation, so I told Gu Ho-chang with a smile.
“Haha, ah, with that kind of thing. What else am I saying. More than that, working hard to pass the exam is the first priority. Dating can happen after that.”
Gu Ho-chang also laughed and spoke.
“Uhm~, but, you never know, right? We had a good meeting in this study, and we can pass together and become civil servants as a married couple.”
Because I think that I am not good at balancing studies and dating, I was in a position to answer Koo Ho-chang’s expectations with a tilt of my head.
“Almost never fall off both, does it?”
Haha! Is that so? But it’s good if you work hard and do both dating and studying!”
Even without taking into account that dating is a negative factor for academics, the competition rate for civil service exams is around 150 to 1 for general administrative positions, which is the most common serial.
So the odds of both falling are high.
Also, even if it were possible, there would be many cases where there would be only one person to pierce the needle hole rather than two people.
Assuming that one of the two, male or female, has fallen and only one has just become a civil servant…
The stability is high, but the salary is not high, but I think there is a higher possibility of a new start after a rise in status rather than making a difficult choice to live while working while supporting a lover who has not yet passed the civil service study with the money.
I shook my head and said.
“Really? Well… I think it would be nice. But realistically, I think it would be difficult for a couple to both pass the civil service exam.”
“I’m going to give it a try.”
“Um. It’s me, of course I hope it goes well for you.”
“Whoa… I wish I had a good kid. Out of the three. Hey, Jinhyeok.”
“Hmm?”
“After pretending not to be so interested in words, if there’s a good guy, wouldn’t that mean you’re dating right away?”
I shook my head and denied Hochang’s words.
“Ah~, it can’t be. I really won’t date a girl until the exam is over.”
“Ha ha! You mean that?”
“Then.”
The list of English study groups was announced yesterday.
There are many different ways to start assigning and operating study groups.
As for how it was assigned this time…
Kwon Se-ah gathered opinions about wanting to be part of a study group with people who said they would not attend and acquaintances.
Reflecting that, the study group was formed, and Kwon Se-ah entrusted the total contact information to the ‘leader’ for each study.
Based on that, each leader sent a group text message and gathered like this.
Today, after class, we decided to have a discussion about the future direction of study.
Since I am friends with Ho-Chang Gu, the leader of the group, I will meet Ho-Chang Gu and go separately like this first, but the rest of the members will gather because Ho-Chang Koo sends text messages.
The empty classroom I found after meeting Ho-Chang Koo and I was one of the smaller classrooms for elective subjects among the many classrooms at the academy.
In the evening, the lecture hall would be empty for a while.
“Here, are you here?”
“Oh, yes.”
Hochang raised his head once more to check the classroom room number hanging horizontally above the entrance to the lecture hall, and answered my words.
As we talked, I passed by the empty lecture room we were supposed to meet on the floor below, and came back and found the lecture room.
Hochang and I entered the classroom together.
– Clap
Open the door and enter
Apparently, Hochang came out a little late, so everyone else seemed to have arrived first.
“Hello.”
“Hello.”
Because it’s the first time we met, everyone exchanges a little passive greetings.
I decided to come in, close the door, and take a seat.
There were a total of 6 people including me and the relief window.
As Hochang said, there were three males and three females including us.
Four people came and sat down first.
Excluding us, there were one male and three females.
However, there was one familiar face among them.
‘This…’
I was stunned the moment her eyes met hers.
Of the four, one was the woman.
‘Yungyeong?’
It was Yoon-gyeong, a part-time worker at a potato stew restaurant.
On the day I met her friends and drank up to the 4th time ago, she was the woman who got the number because she was my ideal type at the store where I left my cell phone.
I don’t know her last name, but I learned her name thanks to the lady at the Gamjatang restaurant who called her.
However, on that day, the very feminine white lace panties that Kwon Se-ah had put in the front pocket of my hoodie suddenly popped out, and Yoon-kyung ran to her kitchen in surprise.
…
But to see you again like this.
I looked at Yun-kyung for a while.
I then looked away and pretended to look elsewhere.
I definitely felt that she was right.
‘Yun-kyung will recognize me too.’
For some reason, the probability that Yoon-gyeong also recognized me seemed a bit higher.
Even if it wasn’t, in the case of Kwon Se-ah, he found me even among hundreds of people.
Yoon-kyung seemed to recognize me better than she did, given the few studymates with her daughter.
Unaware of my somewhat embarrassing situation, the chanting window was making suggestions to everyone about the direction of the study.
“Now, today, let’s briefly introduce ourselves to each other, then we’ll talk about what we’re going to do in the future of the study meeting, and then we’ll go home.”
After saying that, Gu Ho-chang immediately cuts off the start of self-introduction.
“Then, I’ll introduce myself first. My name is Gu Ho-chang. I’m 26. I’m in charge of the team leader. I can speak English, so I can help you, so if you don’t know something, feel free to ask. Thank you.”
After Hochang said that, he stretched out his hand to one side and said.
“Shall we go around and introduce ourselves?”
On the side where Hochang reached out, there was a woman who looked like an ordinary civil servant, but was definitely a little prettier than the average person.
“My name is Kim Hye-na. I’m 27.”
She made an introduction there.
It was pretty short.
Wherever you go, it’s time to introduce yourself, most of them seem to keep the introduction short at first.
Usually, in this case, if there is no person like the moderator who smiles and asks additional questions, the next one continues like this.
Again, short introductions follow.
“I’m Park Sang-won. I’m 29.”
“I’m Jeong Eun-hee. I think I’ll be the oldest. Thirty-two.”
“I’m Yunkyung Kim. I’m twenty-three.”
Finally it was my turn.
I slightly avoided Yoon-kyung’s gaze and introduced myself while looking at the others.
“My name is Jinhyeok Lee. I’m 26. Oh, I’m friends with the leader, Changi Ho. So I asked him to join me. That’s it.”
After I finished the introduction, Kim Hye-na, the next woman I introduced first after Ho-chang, looked at me and chimed in.
“Uh, we also asked for the two of us to be in the same group.”
She spoke to us while gesturing with her hand in a slight back and forth movement toward Park Sang-won, the man sitting next to her.
“Since we’re a couple, I emailed the professor to put us in the same group.”
To her words, Hochang nodded and replied.
“Ah, that’s right~.”
After receiving Kim Hye-na’s words, Ho-chang looked at her teammates seriously and talked.
“Um, the most difficult problem in English is vocabulary, and this one doesn’t have many questions, but English is still the most demanding subject, so it’s good to get it right. I think I need to keep working on words. Bind them one by one and review the words every day. Let’s do this as number 1. And read number 2. What I thought was…”
Koo Ho-chang has been talking about his study management policy since then.
The guhochang style study progress is as follows.
First, memorize 30 words every day and then take a test.
Each test paper is written in random order, made, and passed to the person next to you.
After learning the words like this, the person in charge prepares one reading comprehension problem that he thought was pretty good at his discretion and gives a lecture.
So, as a result, you can memorize 30 words every day, while preparing to explain one reading problem every six days.
I thought the relief window’s plan was pretty good.
There are short studies where you just guess the word study, and there are problem-solving studies where the leader picks up problems and solves them every day, and there are various types.
When I think about such a variety of things, this is an appropriate amount that all members of the group can do so without burden, while having a little more time to study English subjects than meeting too briefly and just guessing words, and not being too burdensome. Seemed to be
I agreed with that method.
And it seemed that other people would not suggest or propose a different plan in particular.
“Yes~!”
“Then, shall we start tomorrow?”
Gu Ho-chang listened to them and continued the process.
“Yes. I’d like to set the time as well, but before the academy class, during lunchtime, and after the academy, who doesn’t have a specific time here?”
