Returner’s Magic Laundry

“Hey, where did your boss go? If you stop for one year, you will get a 40% discount, so I am very excited! I will try to lose this belly fat somehow within this year! I quit with that decision... … ! Are you closing in less than three months?”

“Uh, I’m the one here who washes and delivers towels and sportswear. I was also embarrassed that the door was closed today.”

How strong is my body, my body swaying to and fro in the hand holding the collar.

“So it’s the same loser. Quickly tell me where the boss is. If you give me a refund, I think I'll just skip it!"

“Let this go. I am also a victim because I have been delayed for three months. Otherwise, I will report it to the police.”

A man who softens a little when he hears that he is a police officer.

“Isn’t it really one? I think I saw you giggling together.”

“Yes, no. Replying to @Jackson So, do you impress your clients?”

At that moment, a familiar man from the group approached me and greeted me warmly.

“Ah, hello. How can I see you here?”

It's a face I've seen somewhere... … .

A man who reads my expression and says words that can be quickly remembered.

“It’s a laundry technician testing center. Handkerchiefs, Pyongyang Cold Noodles, Hyperhidrosis… … .”

Then I remembered

“Ah, then that… … . Someone who almost burned out in the exam room and sweat a lot!”

"Yes, that is correct. This is Gangnam Young.”

“Wow, meeting you here! Nice to meet you. But what are you doing here? Are you a member of the gym here? Do you do laundry in this town?”

"no. It's a neighboring town. I saw an advertisement saying that if you quit for a year, you get a lot of discount, so I stopped here. But in a few months, it looks like this.”

As we chatted warmly, the man who grabbed me by the collar scratched the back of his head as if hesitantly.

“Are you familiar with it?”

“Yes, this is just the laundry owner.”

“Ouch, I’m sorry. I'm in a hurry, so I clench my neck... … .”

The man apologized, but the bad mood did not rest.

“It doesn’t sound like an apology. I felt pretty bad. So, can I grab you by the neck? I love the saying, “An eye for an eye and an eye for a tooth.”

I thought it would be okay, but the man panicked when he made a gesture to grab him by the collar.

“Oh! I'm sorry. Sorry."

I apologized over and over again, and decided to put up with it just once.

I looked at Gangnam-young again and continued.

“It seems that the president of the gym got a lot of banquet members and jumped out.”

“Yes, for an annual membership of 299,000 won, you can exercise for 25,000 won a month, so many members registered. I heard that it has been closed frequently since last month... … ”

Not only have I been eaten at the gym, but I've had a lot of discount events.

I went to register for just one month, and if I quit for a year, I fell for the saying that the discount rate is high, and I signed up for a long-term with the vain resolution of ‘Yes, health bills are cheap, let’s keep exercising right now’.

But, in all likelihood, after a while, he stops walking by giving this excuse and that excuse.

We are… … No, let's not drag others into it for nothing.

So, I know myself well, but when this temptation comes in, I fall into the illusion that I can forget about it for a while and become a good bodybuilder.

Some people who took advantage of people's psychology open and operate a gym in this way for a while, then eat and run.

However, since the price is not so high, most people get angry for a while and then give up quickly.

This kind of thing happens so often that it's banal.

"Hmm… … I'm back at once. I don't think the boss will show up even if we're just dying here. I also can’t leave the laundry empty for a long time.”

"Ok. let's go. Because I have reported it to the police. I will contact you.”

People turn around with their already abandoned eyes.

But Gangnam-young looked at me with her bright face.

“Can I go to the laundromat to play? I can’t exercise anyway, so I have time.”

“After all, the better is the enemy of the good.”

"Yeah?"

Gangnam-young's eyes widened.

“You chose the better over the good, and you end up at a loss.”

"That… … Does it happen? Isn't the good the enemy of the better? Wouldn’t there be no progress if there is something better, and if we choose only the good ones that are lower than that?”

Well… … That statement makes sense.

“Oh, by the way, can Namyoung’s laundry be left empty for such a long time? Lunchtime is coming to an end.”

“My father is feeling a little better, so he goes back to the laundromat. You are telling me to prepare for the civil service exam again. But if it keeps falling, there is no face.”

“Yes, then, let’s go together.”

“Anyway, I have to get a refund.”

Gangnam-young throws a timid word towards the gym.

“You bastard, just get caught! Do you eat money like the blood of a poor public servant?”

“I can’t afford to lose either. The laundry bill for three months isn't much, but I'm sure I'll get it. You dare eat money like Ahn Nam's blood. It’s even worse for people who are not rich and who eat the money of ordinary people like us.”

We looked at each other with an expression of determination to hold onto it and stop it.

“But how do you get it? Even the police say they're stuck."

“That’s it.”

* * *

“Wow, is this the laundromat? Is this a cafe?”

Heh, Gangnam-young, who saw my beautiful laundry, did not even go inside, but spat out exclamations again and again.

“Oh, come in quickly. You've been admiring it for thirty minutes already."

Just then, Gangnam-young enters.

“No, how did you build a building like this with the laundry?”

“I bought the building on either side and remodeled it.”

“Anyway. You're rich. You are not a commoner.”

“What, to this extent. I am still hungry.”

“Oh, didn’t you have lunch?”

ok~

I can't understand the expression of the parable.

As soon as the door was opened, customers flocked in as if waiting.

They were busy looking for clothes and giving them away, and as soon as they were arranging the clothes they had left, customers kept coming.

Then, Kangnam-young, who stood up, went to the front door and began to greet the guests.

"welcome. Did you come to drop off your clothes?”

"Yeah."

“Then give the clothes to the boss, tell me your contact information, and I’ll write it down.”

“Oh, I guess you got a part-time job as the laundry grew bigger? For some reason, Annam-san, I thought that it would be difficult to do it alone.”

“That would be nice, but no. I'll come over and help out."

"Oh, I see."

Gangnam-Young moved as if it were his own laundry, and even though it was an unfamiliar laundry, he was very good at finding and giving out clothes, receiving them and organizing them well.

Besides, he likes nucksal, so he quickly became close enough to joke around with the guests he met for the first time.

“No, this guy is so funny. He also has a handsome face.”

Actually, Kangnam-young's face wasn't that good-looking.

However, his mouth continues to smile, and each time his eyes are shaped like a half moon, he looks like a crush.

It was an innocent smile.

In comparison, I have dark memories of my previous life, so even if I smile brightly, I cannot create such a 100% pure smile.

Like the dark side of a magical forest, my dark side was blocking 100% of my enjoyment.

When I looked at Kangnam-young with a smile, I got the illusion that his face was really handsome.

And I was envious of that smile.

My laundry looked beautiful on the outside, but I still felt it was lacking, and now I feel like I know what it is.

Gangnam-young was a man of great wealth that he did not know.

by the way.

Delivery time is approaching, and customers keep pouring in.

However, delivery cannot be omitted.

“Namyoung, if you have time, would you like to work part-time today? It’s delivery time, but customers keep coming.”

"Really? You might regret leaving it to me.”

“The regret is mine. I will pay you for the part-time job.”

“Then don’t worry and go. It's fun for me too. We didn’t know that our laundromat didn’t have many customers.”

I entrusted the laundry to Mr. Gangnam-young and started delivery.

I thought that it would be okay to be away for a long time, so I took the planning book for the movie ‘Legend’ that I received from CEO Na-Kyung Oh and came out.

As soon as I entered the neighborhood, a yellow-jawed bunting flew over and sat on my shoulder.

“Are you waiting for me to come? How can you fly right into the entrance?”

At that moment, another yellow-jawed bunting could be heard chirping on a tree a short distance away.

It was like a mother bird.

Then the bird on my shoulder flew away, and after talking with the mother bird, it came back to me.

A mother bird that stays for a while and then flies away.

“Why don’t you go with your mother?”

Did you understand my question, tweeting.

"I do not understand it. Anyway, you're going to deliver laundry with me today, right? Alright, follow me.”

I screamed out towards the town.

“Laundry!”

[Whit huit huit huit whit beep beep beep]

my laundry! A bunting bird that makes birdsong after making a sound.

“Are you following me now? Laundry!”

When we shout again, the bunting also makes a sound.

[Whit huit huit huit whit beep beep beep]

“Hahaha, cute.”

Perhaps because the bunting bird made a noise, birds from all over the world gathered around me.

“Aww, why is the neighborhood so noisy? Birds are barking at the same time. What happened?”

The old woman who came out with the laundry said with a smile.

"Iknow, right. Birds are following me.”

“No, when Annam comes, the birds are the first to come.”

“Ah, I must be very popular with birds.”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

“I wish. fufu. Please take care of this dress. I have to go to a wedding over the weekend. I didn’t have clothes to wear, so I bought a new one, and I just wanted to wear the one I was wearing.”

"Yeah."

I picked up my laundry and headed out again.

But today, there were a lot of people I had never seen in the neighborhood.

They walked around the neighborhood in groups of three, five, and occasionally took pictures of each other with a small camera in hand.

“Uncle, can you take a picture of us?”

Three young ladies were taking pictures of each other, but found me and held out the camera.

"Ah yes… … .”

The three stood side by side in a place with a good view, and I shouted cheese and pressed the shutter.

"Thank you."

“But what about this town?”

“Ah, photos are going around the internet these days just saying this neighborhood is pretty. I came to play once. But it’s really pretty.”

"Ah… … .”

The World-dong has become a lot more worth seeing, but I didn't expect so many people to come.

“There was a big cafe downstairs, let’s go there and have a cup of coffee. Someone posted it on the internet, and the coffee is delicious and the atmosphere is good.”

"Ok, fine. There are so many things to see in this town.”

The three of them rushed down.

‘Oh, is this a rumor?’

Anyway, it felt good.

Almost finished washing, I arrived in front of Mr. Baek's house and rang the doorbell.

As always, the working lady welcomed me.

Next to him was a rose panting and waving her tail vigorously.

“How are you, Rose?”

Then, Teacher Baek came out to the living room.

“Are you here? Come into the library. I was still waiting.”

"Yeah. Please collect her aunt's laundry. I will take it with me when I go.”

"Ok."

When I followed teacher Baek into the room, a study with a very high ceiling appeared.

Like a library, books were piled up to the ceiling, and a large chandelier was hung in the middle of the ceiling.

‘You read a lot of books.’

There was a large conference table in the middle, and at the end of it was Mr. Baek's desk.

As if the meeting had just ended, there were some papers on the table and a few teacups that I had finished drinking.
