Plan X
Let me rewind time for a moment.
The evening after finishing WWE with Lera.
Mung-ryong’s Host Bar was still booming.
– Wow, as time goes on in this server, the kids are making more money so business is doing even better lol
– The thrill is being able to boldly turn a legitimate romantic RP into a host bar-customer relationship ㅇㅇ
– Even the quality of the hosts is good, maybe because the owner is handsome
– I like Mungop the best, he’s so carefree
– Mungup boob party ㅠㅠㅠ
“Today I’ll go to work with Leruri, see her off, then get right back to business.”
– You crazy bastard, you said Leruri alone was enough
– This is why you can’t trust host bars
– As soon as he gets his main breadwinner job, he’s immediately looking for another woman lmaooooo
– Munzuhara really manages his customers ruthlessly
– Is this Munzuhara who got the shop???
– We should never have given wealth to rental Mungchu
– Finally appeared, the boy who sells his body!
“It’s nice that the employees can also do auto hunting among themselves.”
– The owner proudly watching women being parasites
– This is strange
– Dog
– Damn
– Cut
– Chat
– You guys are all gonna get beaten up ㅇㅇ
The chat room’s energy wasn’t bad either.
On top of that.
[Current viewer count: 312 people]
I achieved the remarkable feat of breaking through 300 viewers.
– Ttaranta† Mungsdak starting price 312
– This smells strongly of a pump and dump stock
– But is it right for the manager to be saying this?
– What a properly musty, shady spot lol
“By the way, why isn’t our benefactor coming? I was going to give them a really special discount.”
I’m sure I left a message for EV, but maybe they’re not coming because they’re police?
But thinking about it that way, there’s already a police officer working as a host at our shop.
‘Shouldn’t they come?’
While I was thinking that and waiting for customers.
-“Um… are you open for business by any chance?”
“Welcome! This is Mung-ryong’s Host Bar!”
Finally, the guest I’ve been waiting and waiting for has arrived.
My benefactor, the golden lifeline that helped pull my stream’s viewer count up to a whopping 300 people.
Why is she entering so cautiously like that?
-“Uh… Chief?”
-“…Haha Officer EV! I can see everything from here!”
-“Why is the Chief… Ch-Chief, are you a regular?”
-“Put the trivial stuff aside and go enjoy yourself.”
-“Yes sir!”
After witnessing her boss’s secret side business on her way to me.
EV, no, Officer EV came straight toward me.
-“Mung-ryong… what’s going on here? You said you were going to live righteously!”
“Benefactor, this is my way… this is my way of living righteously in my own manner. Let’s sit down and talk about it.”
– Let’s sit down and talk (handing over the menu)
– Are you seriously trying to sell to the AV who actually invited you? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– Benefactor and delinquent, this is quite intriguing
– Is this reverse corruption material?
Officer EV took a seat.
And I naturally sat down in the seat next to her.
– Wait, isn’t that the seat where you seated Leruri?
– Hahahahahaha
– Seating EV in the seat where you seated Leruri…
– You’re really gonna get stabbed later, you crazy bastard
– It only looks like you’re doing something you can’t handle (adjusting glasses-)
– When Ttaranta† went to work part-time because his livelihood was really at risk… did he actually do construction work?
– Isn’t he actually a real active host bar worker?
– Ah so smooth so smooth so smooth
I ignored the chat room.
Since I secured a useful unpaid slave, there was no chance of the chat room turning against me now.
I could freely develop the RP to my heart’s content.
-“What are all these menu items… Going to Work Together? Baby Play? What exactly are you trying to say… No, Mung-ryong, you weren’t this kind of person.”
“I had no choice. I have debts too… After you saved me, benefactor… I tried to live righteously in my own way, but somehow this happened…”
-“Debts? What debts? How much do you have? Enough that you had to open this kind of shop?”
“It’s not that I had to open this kind of shop because of debts, this shop IS my debt. I got scammed, and this shop was left behind like a debt… so I had to make use of it somehow…”
-“But still, why… why a host bar…”
“I thought this would be the fastest way. As you know, I don’t have any special skills… all I have is my face.”
– “All I have is my face” bullshit
– That’s really something only handsome guys can say
– I don’t know how to do anything except being handsome, so host bar lololololol
– And the looks that make that statement convincing are really unreal
– Ugh ㅠㅠ The bullshit they’re spewing is so disgusting it’s driving me crazy
– I do want to get some cuddles at this timing ㅇㅇ
After doing host bar RP several times, I’ve developed a formula for dealing with customers.
1. First, seat them and have them look at the menu.
2. Have natural conversations and talk about each other, naturally mentioning the debt during this time.
3. Emphasize that once I pay off all my debts, I won’t even look at this kind of work.
4. Emphasize this to every customer I meet, and always include going to work together as a service.
5. Repeat this process with every customer who requests me.
Then since everyone is immersed in the RP, they bring money the next day or the day after.
-“Mung-ryong… you said you wouldn’t do this stuff once you pay off your debt… take this, I’m a hospital director so I have lots of money.”
Hospital Director Leruri.
-“But are you really not thinking about joining the gang? Close the shop and… if you want, just stay by my side and just mm, just go along with me.”
Gang Boss Barabin.
-“Just one more time, I’ll help you just one more time… this is really the last time, okay? I believe in our Mung-ryong.”
Mentor Ev.
And even the minor ones who paid amounts I can’t remember.
Roughly estimated, about 13 people.
I repeated this process.
And I even started thinking I wished the money in this RP server was really my money.
‘Ah… even roughly looking, it’s easily over 200 million.’
The amount I earned through host bar RP in just three days was about 250 million total.
It’s an absurd level.
Shop debt? Actually, there’s no such thing, so you could say I just duplicated money.
And it didn’t end there.
“Alright, I’ll collect the 10% commission from the players.”
-“Ah, instead of collecting daily, can’t you just do it all at once?”
“No. Daily settlements prevent disputes and are better for everyone.”
Adding the commission from the four players who also do construction work.
– Wow, this is the first person to easily surpass 300 million in three days on an RP server
– Wait, everyone was doing host bar RP this enthusiastically?
– But where did everyone get this kind of money in just a few days to spend at the host bar…
– Starting from those who worked really hard and then targeting the big spenders to take from them… this is crazy
– So they ripped off at least a few thousand per person lol
My wealth snowballed.
With about 1 week and 4 days left on the server.
Now it was the perfect amount to put away the host bar RP and make a fresh start.
‘I need to change up the RP periodically so viewers don’t get bored and keep staying.’
The current viewer count had exceeded 300 people.
Until the day comes when I continue like this and eventually achieve four digits through my own strength.
‘Keep going…! I have to keep working hard.’
But I made a huge mistake here.
No, to be precise, I overlooked the biggest core issue.
Simply working hard for RP.
-“…Mung-ryong, why didn’t you answer my calls? Why didn’t you come with me to work? I saw you were late to the Shop today too… Come to think of it, you’ve paid off all your debts, so you don’t need the Shop anymore, right?”
It wasn’t just me.
++++++
Crackle, crackle.
Whoooosh.
Crackle, crackle.
Whoooosh.
I can see Mung-ryong’s Host Bar on fire.
The Sign had melted away long ago.
The Building had been marked as inaccessible from the inside long ago.
Due to the game’s nature, a damaged Building like this wasn’t completely unusable.
But it would take at least three days to repair it.
“Who the hell…?”
– So who told you not to do day streams? So who told you not to do day streams? So who told you not to do day streams? So who told you not to do day streams? So who told you not to do day streams? So who told you not to do day streams?
– I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime I told you to stream from daytime

– Ttaranta† tsk tsk So why are you still insisting on streaming at 6 o’clock lol
– But maybe it’s fortunate you came in late now?
– lololol If you had come in earlier you would’ve been dead for real yeah
The viewers enjoying my shock and me still not properly grasping the situation.
‘Lera? EV? Babin? Banji? Or those other girls whose amounts I can’t remember?’
Who burned down my Shop.
Who practically sentenced me to three days of business suspension.
This curiosity was quickly resolved.
– Thank you Anonymous Donor for the 1,000 won donation.
[ Did you think you’d be fine deceiving women while running a Host Bar? In GTA where there are Guns and Gunpowder? lol ]
– Thank you Anonymous Donor for the 1,000 won donation.
[ Those women you deceived… Accept the karma of earning those women’s wrath yeah ]
“…Thank you for the two thousand won donations. No, wait… So you’re saying my girls did this?”
– Why do you still think they’re your girls
– Mungi it’s not too late even now, just take your car and run
– You might really get torn limb from limb
While I couldn’t come to my senses.
Vroooom.
The phone rang.
“Hello?”
As soon as I answered.
-“Mung-ryong, you paid off all your debts, right? So I went to the shop to find you… but you weren’t there. I was going to wait for you? But why… are there so many other women waiting for you besides me?”
“…”
Hospital Director-Leruri immediately got straight to the point.
-“No response? Then can I keep talking? Who the hell is Eb? Banji? Bunji? Who is she… and who is Barabin? I’m really curious about so many things.”
-“We went to work together about twice and then you stopped… What are you doing now? Where are you and what are you up to?”
-“The shop seemed like it wouldn’t be needed anymore… so I burned it down, no… should I say we? Besides you… there were many players who got played by your employees.”
-“No, not played, right? What was it, scammed?”
That’s when I realized.
Ah, I’m not the only one serious about RP.
Actually, even more than me.
Being a major corporation, they must be acting out their RP even more thoroughly.
‘I was mistaken.’
This wasn’t a solo play game.
There was no such thing as extorting money from NPCs, keeping your mouth shut, turning around and it’s over!
-“But you know what, let me be clear – you definitely scammed us, that’s for sure…”
-“But I’m the one who decides whether to let it slide?”
-“No, not just me, should I say we? Anyway, we’ll come looking for you soon, so stay put and wait quietly.”
Click.
The phone hung up just like that.
“Wait, this is a scam?”
– So you really think you can pull this shit and nothing’s gonna happen? lololololol
– This bastard really has no way out
– No, does he lack the intelligence to think about consequences
– Do we even have time for this though? lol We should probably be hiding at the edge of the map or something
– What happened? Bullshit, you’re the one who hit on her lol
– They were going on about being scammed and losing money and all that bullshit lol
– Ta-da-da-da† Yeah, so flirty hahahahahahaha
They told me to wait quietly.
But of course I have no intention of waiting quietly.
‘Like hell I would.’
That’s absolutely something I must not let happen.
In the midst of all this, the one fortunate thing was.
Screech.
Cars aren’t always there like shops, but work on a concept where the owner summons them.
So I could get in and drive just fine.
“First… I need to run away first, but where should I go?”
As I jumped into the car and started driving.
Ring ring ring ring.
The phone rings again.
“Hello?”
-“Mung-ryong, it’s me, Eve.”
“Ah, ahhhhh…! My mentor!”
-“Huh? That’s strange? Until yesterday you were calling me Eve and saying I looked like a woman to you, why did I suddenly become your mentor? How strange?”
“…”
-“But are you in a car right now? It’s a bit noisy around you?”
“Uh, uhuh… Yes, yes… Yes? I’m driving.”
-“Ah… you noticed, didn’t you?”
– Gasp
– Gasp
– Gasp
– You saw it, didn’t you?
– This is why I hate quick-witted Mungi
– This is the story of how I started as a host and got completely screwed
– Thank you for loving Lee Mung-ryong all this time
– Host work -The End-
I never imagined everyone would be this good at seriously roleplaying a woman who got scammed by a host through Construction Work and then abandoned.
I couldn’t have imagined this.
‘No, wait… maybe it’s because my Host Bar Roleplay was too perfect…? Since they’re immersed in it, the flow comes naturally?’
Since they’re saying the RP is that successful, should I be happy or not.
But this dilemma didn’t last long.
This was definitely a positive sign.
Because.
[Current Viewer Count: 843]
– Ttaranta† Mungsdak 843!!!!!!!
– Spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret spin the turret
– Rather than watch Mungi go mainstream I’ll just get a job lol Rather than watch Mungi go mainstream I’ll just get a job lol Rather than watch Mungi go mainstream I’ll just get a job lol Rather than watch Mungi go mainstream I’ll just get a job lol
– Yeah right it’s just a pump and dump stock I don’t believe it Yeah right it’s just a pump and dump stock I don’t believe it Yeah right it’s just a pump and dump stock I don’t believe it Yeah right it’s just a pump and dump stock I don’t believe it Yeah right it’s just a pump and dump stock I don’t believe it
– It’s all Trump’s scheming anyway lol Mungcoin will definitely crash
– But this time everyone wants to see how Mungi dies lol
– This bastard is definitely getting caught
Because the viewer count had skyrocketed again.
This was clearly a green light showing I was well entangled with the Major Corporation.
“Notice… you noticed? What do you mean?”
-“Honestly, I didn’t want to go this far, but since you’re on the run, I have no choice but to make a decision.”
“What decision!”
-“…From now on, we’re issuing a public manhunt for Lee Mung-ryong who committed crimes including marriage fraud and romance scams. He must be captured alive!”
Thud.
The phone call ended just like that.
I even had the crime of seducing gang boss Barabin.
I could even hear the voices of gang members on Star Live saying they would definitely find and kill me.
– Wow so all the women he scammed are chasing Mungi?
– This is that thing
– Munzuhara boy…
– He’s learning properly
– A proper host bar guy
– It was fun, good work
– Even when leaving, he goes out in style
– So why the fuck are they doing construction like some kind of octopus tentacles ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“It’s not like doing it like an octopus, construction work naturally involves multiple sites. When building apartments, do you only build one? You build several.”
– Wow hahahahaha
– While running away from that ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
– Hahahahahaha
– His real mouth is still alive lol
– Lucky bastard, being a big corporation that builds multiple buildings ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“Plan E… no wait, how far did I get? F? Anyway… should I try the next plan with Mung-ryong Construction again? I have lots of money.”
– What’s the point of having a lot if you can’t even use it, you crazy bastard ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“No, why can’t I spend it? I’ll definitely spend it.”
While I was casually communicating with viewers like this.
Beep beep beep beep.
Weeee-ooo- Weeee-ooo- Weeee-ooo- Weeee-ooo-
Honk honk! Honk honk! Honk honk! Honk honk!
Various sounds came from behind the car.
There were police car sounds, ambulance siren sounds, and the sound of illegally modified engines.
“Sigh… perfect weather to die.”
It was a moment that made me want to say something like that.
+++++
How long had I been running away?
How long had I been dodging people here and there with my excellent driving skills?
I realized this wasn’t the right answer.
Eventually, we’ll meet someday.
And if I keep running away, the viewers will get bored.
I need to reach a conclusion.
Screeeech!
– Why did you suddenly stop the car
– He’s finally lost it
Ratatatatak.
Following my controls, the Lee Mung-ryong character stops driving.
Step step.
He skillfully steps on the car and climbs on top.
– ?
– What’s he doing
– ?
– Is he crazy?
– He’s just gonna go?
– Bungee without a rope?
The viewers’ confusion.
And their bewilderment at my sudden action.
At this moment.
“We will now begin the Lee Mung-ryong girlfriend interview session.”
I activated Plan X.
“Those who want to be my girlfriend, please take a seat.”
I’m handsome, aren’t I?
You’re all still wrapped around my finger, aren’t you?
Hey, I’m Lee Mung-ryong.
Running away from a woman? That’s impossible.
“Those who can cosplay as Lize will receive bonus points.”
