Chapter 75

Three weeks have passed since the incident at the neighbor’s house.

During that time, as Jujijoa had said, I never felt any strange gazes.

‘It seems that drone really was watching me.’

I packed the drone in a box and sent it to the address Drifting AI provided.

They said they would track down the stalker if I sent it.

And today.

[From: Drifting AI]

┗I inform you. The heinous stalker who was monitoring you with a mini drone has been dealt with cleanly by me, and measures have been taken to ensure they can never approach you again. This incident has been resolved, so you can rest assured and live peacefully from now on.

Drifting received an email.

It seemed they had successfully tracked down the drone’s owner.

‘Juji’s acquaintance said tracking would be impossible… Drifting must be on a whole different level as a hacker.’

They were such a reliable and dependable viewer.

I’m not sure what “dealt with” means, but since they said they handled it well, I decided to stop worrying about the drone.

Surely, they didn’t kill them, right?

‘Well, I should go wash up and start the broadcast.’

After having cola for breakfast, I finished the dishes and headed to the bathhouse.

After refreshingly washing up, I dried my hair with a towel and picked up the camera.

Then, I checked the broadcast on my phone.

『The broadcast has started.』

Coincidentally, Teddy Bear had already turned on the broadcast.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Ohayo! Hisashiburi~

The first to enter was Guburi.

It had been a while since Guburi entered this early.

Lately, they always came in late.

To the point of using entry codes to get in.

“Our Guburi, you came early today?”

【Handsome Licker】─Our Guburi? When did you get so close? Tsk tsk.

【Qkrnfl892】─What? Are you two dating?

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─Would you date Guburi?

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─I’ve been working lately. Haha. Today’s my day off, so I came right in. Sex.

【Big Girl】─Did you escape being unemployed?

【Yoho】─Huh. Where do you work?

【Min Ji】─Wow. What kind of job do you do?

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─None of your business, bitches.

“Ah. You got a job? No wonder you’ve been less active in the chat lately. So, where do you work?”

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─A Japanese restaurant. Haha.

【Yoho】─You answer right away when the room master asks. -_-

It’s good that you got a job.

I was especially worried about Guburi.

They seemed like a typical hikikomori viewer, so it was hard not to worry.

“Anyway, congrats, Guburi. You’ve finally returned from being trash to being a human.”

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Thanks. Haha.

【Jujijoa】─Not bothered by being called trash.

【Maehwa Tree】─They admit it themselves.

After congratulating Guburi, I slowly scanned the viewer list.

‘No new viewers.’

Lately, there had been quite a few new viewers, but today, for the first time in a while, it was just the regulars.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─When will I get the code? T_T

Mania barely made it in.

Later, Balloon Gum Collector entered.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wakya-pya! I made it!

【Maid】─Wakya-pya! I made it!

By the way, this didn’t mean they entered the broadcast.

“Wakya-pya! I came to play again!”

It meant they actually entered my house.

Balloon Gum naturally jumped into the house and waved at the camera.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─That bastard keeps coming over. Damn.

【Yoho】─You mean ‘coming over,’ right? It’s not Gyeongsaeng’s house.

【Min Ji】─Balloon Gum, please stop coming over. -_-

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─Look at them coming in like it’s their own house. Makes me want to smash a pot every time I see it. Haha.

Every two or three days, Balloon Gum would come over to our house to play.

Of course, they weren’t coming to see me.

They just came to play with the maid.

“I’m going upstairs!”

Balloon Gum said that and passed by me.

And as usual, while running up to the second floor.

“Ah, right!”

As if something came to mind, they suddenly stopped.

Balloon Gum ran back to me and handed me a small box they were holding.

“Juji asked me to give this to you!”

“Juji? You met her again?”

“Ah, well, actually, I’ve been living with Juji since the day before yesterday.”

This was news to me.

Why were Juji and Balloon Gum living together?

With that question in mind, I asked while looking at the camera.

“Juji, why are you living with Balloon Gum?”

【Jujijoa】─Secret.

They didn’t seem to want to answer.

Balloon Gum also giggled.

“Hehe. Secret!”

They were pulling this nonsense.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─What’s the secret?

【Jujijoa】─It’s a secret.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Huh? Just tell me. -_-

【Jujijoa】─It’s a secret.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Damn, everything’s a secret.

【Jujijoa】─?

【Handsome Licker】─That bastard’s intelligence seems lower than Guburi’s. Lick.

【Qkrnfl892】─LOL.

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─Same difference. Haha.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─I was just sitting here, why the hell are you all going crazy?

【Handsome Licker】─It’s a sign of affection. Haha. Lick.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Get lost.

Ignoring the stupid viewers’ chats, I decided to unwrap the box Balloon Gum gave me.

【Jujijoa】─Se-hoon, please try not to show it on camera.

Following Juji’s request, I pointed the camera elsewhere for a moment.

Then, I checked the contents of the box.

‘…What’s this? A gun?’

Inside was a gun smaller than the palm of my hand.

It was a bit of an unusual gun.

It looked so much like a toy that I doubted it was real.

【Min Ji】─Se-hoon, your eyes just got really big.

【Yoho】─Did Jujijoa send something weird?

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Did they send a dildo?

【Handsome Licker】─Why would they send a dildo to Se-hoon? Haha. Lick.

“Juji, this isn’t a toy, right?”

【Jujijoa】─It’s not a toy. I sent it for self-defense.

【Qkrnfl892】─Self-defense? A stun gun?

【Jujijoa】─Yeah, something like that.

【Jujijoa】─Se-hoon, read the manual too.

I picked up the paper under the gun.

It wasn’t so much a manual as a handwritten note about the gun’s functions.

<This is a newly developed silent compact gun. I know you're strong, Se-hoon, but I thought it would be safer to have a gun than just your bare hands, so I sent you one.>

It was the first time I received a gun as a gift, so I was a bit flustered.

I might be the first broadcaster to receive such a gift from a viewer.

Anyway, since they sent it out of concern for me, I decided to keep it.

Though I doubt I’ll ever need to use it.

“…Thanks, I guess. I’ll use it well.”

【Jujijoa】─Haha, I’m the only one, right?

“You’re the only crazy bitch who would give something like this…”

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Wait, what did they give you? Damn, stop keeping it between yourselves and tell us. -_-

【Qkrnfl892】─They said it was a stun gun.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Is giving a stun gun crazy?

【Qkrnfl892】─I don’t know, idiot. Just go with it.

【Yoho】─But why did they suddenly send a self-defense item?

【Min Ji】─Yeah, it’s kind of out of nowhere.

【Qkrnfl892】─Isn’t it because those Male Supremacy Organization bastards have been running wild lately?

【Handsome Licker】─That’s right. You could get attacked during a night broadcast. Tsk.

【Jujijoa】─Yeah, you got it.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─?? Don’t they just do hate comment attacks?

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─No, didn’t you see the news? They did an acid attack on a celebrity the day before yesterday.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Really?

【Maehwa Tree】─They’re insane.

【Big Girl】─Se-hoon, you should be especially careful. You’ve been targeted by that male group before.

“That was a long time ago… I think they don’t care about me anymore. Maybe because I’m ugly.”

【Drifting AI】─I inform you. ‘Male Supremacy Organization Season 2’ is a group that indiscriminately attacks good-looking or pretty people, regardless of gender.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─What’s Season 2?

【Drifting AI】─I inform you. It’s a group formed by those expelled from the original Male Supremacy Organization.

Drifting suddenly appeared and explained about Male Supremacy Organization Season 2.

So, in other words,

Male Supremacy Organization Season 2 is an extreme group formed by those rejected even by the original group.

“Drifting really knows a lot. Anyway, don’t worry about me. Juji gave me a self-defense item, and even without it, I’m not easy to attack.”

【Maehwa Tree】─True, Se-hoon is really good at fighting.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Have you seen them fight?

【Jujijoa】─Yeah, they’re not at a level where ordinary people can take them down. Haha.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─I asked if you’ve seen them fight.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wakya-pya! You can’t stop hate comment attacks, right?

【Maid】─Wakya-pya! You can’t!

“Hate comments don’t really affect me. The broadcast has a viewer limit, and I don’t really check communities. And I don’t think I’ll have much to do with that group, so don’t worry about it.”

Saying that,

I ignored the Male Supremacy Organization and continued preparing to go out.

***

While driving, I briefly explained the broadcast schedule to the viewers.

Basically,

Today: Street night broadcast in Seoul.

Tomorrow: Meal broadcast with Kwaehwal Namsu.

That’s how it would go.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Are you going to Seoul early because of tomorrow’s appointment?

“That’s part of it, and I also want to show you all around Seoul.”

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─?? Do you think we’re country bumpkins, damn it.

【Handsome Licker】─Hahaha, wasn’t Guburi a country bumpkin? Lick.

【Big Girl】─Where will you sleep?

“I booked a hotel in Shinsa-dong. Near Apgujeong Station.”

【Big Girl】─Huh? Shinsa-dong? That’s near where I work.

【Min Ji】─That’s where our building is. 🙂

【Yoho】─Wow, that’s near my house.

When I mentioned the destination, the three polite viewers reacted simultaneously.

Coincidentally, all three of them lived near Shinsa-dong.

“Whatever.”

But I didn’t care.

I didn’t plan to meet the viewers this time.
