Chick Class Hunter is Being Filial! Episode 207
* * *
That night.
After eating a hearty dinner, Han Gru opened her eyes fiercely beside the deeply sleeping On Jurim.
She would see with her own two eyes whether it was an animal or a ghost, and prove that the Kindergarten Teacher’s teachings were not wrong.
For a kindergartener, the Kindergarten Teacher’s teachings were absolute truth, like the sun rising in the east.
That wasn’t all.
Han Gru glanced at the sleeping On Jurim’s face.
She planned to pretend to sleep, then catch daddy by the tail when he tried to sneak out and sternly ask where he was going.
Yes, let’s do that!
How much time had passed since she made up her mind? A colorless and odorless scent began to seep into Gru’s Room.
…
…
…
“Chirp! Chiiirp!”
Han Gru groggily woke up to the noisy crying sound in her ear.
Mephistopheles was pushing Han Gru’s cheeks with both wings, trying to wake her up.
“Slurp.”
Han Gru swallowed the drool at the corner of her mouth.
Huh? She was definitely only planning to pretend to sleep for a moment?
She hurriedly checked the time.
11 PM.
Daddy was nowhere to be found, and outside the window was already pitch dark.
‘I failed!’
Was it because she had shaken the tambourine too enthusiastically after such a long time?
She had asked Veilak and Mephistopheles to wake her up, but if she woke up at this hour…
“Did Mepi sleep too?”
“Chirp.”
Mephistopheles tilted his head down and swayed his body left and right with both wings folded.
It meant he was ashamed.
Han Gru glanced at Veilak who was sleeping with his belly exposed, snoring loudly, then comforted Mepi.
“It’s okay. He might not have come yet.”
“Chirp-”
Mephistopheles nodded and flew up to perch on top of Han Gru’s head, and Han Gru took out a fork from her Inventory.
“Let’s go.”
“Chirp!”
“Let’s go! Chick Ghost Hunters!”
The fork and feathers were thrust toward the sky.
“Hmph!”
“Chirp!”
Han Gru huffed out a breath and gripped the fork tightly with both hands as she stealthily headed toward the garden plot.
Sneaking along like that.
Han Gru and Mephistopheles widened their eyes as they approached the garden plot.
“…!”
A tall figure with long hair was moving around in front of the garden plot.
Han Gru’s lips trembled.
“Me, Mepi. Go over there and see who it is.”
But Mephistopheles was just as frightened.
“Peep peep….”
Mephistopheles shook his head and clung tightly to Han Gru’s head.
“Mepi, coward.”
“Chirp peep peep.”
[Han Gru, coward!]
A popup window appeared with Mephistopheles’ retort translated.
Han Gru puffed out her cheeks sulkily. When did he send hearts, and now he’s calling her a coward. What a mean double portion.
Han Gru and Mephistopheles, who had been quietly blaming each other, clamped their mouths shut and called a temporary truce.
“We go on three.”
“Chirp.”
Han Gru took a deep breath and steeled herself as she whispered the count.
One, two, three-!
The fork immediately charged toward the Outsider.
But at the sound of the child’s pattering footsteps, the Outsider quickly turned around and reached out to grab the fork.
“Got it-!”
“Hyaaang~!”
“Huh?”
“Hmm?”
Lee Romi, who had caught Han Gru’s fork, and Han Gru, who had let out a strange scream when her fork was caught, blinked their eyes.
“…Han Gru? Why aren’t you sleeping? What are you doing here?”
Romi unni? She’s not a ghost?
Han Gru’s eyes welled up with tears of relief as she sniffled.
“Gho… ghostie… sniff!”
“Ghostie?”
Nod nod.
“Came to catch ghostie… sniff!”
“Ah, a thieving ghost?”
Lee Romi nodded after hearing what the staff members had been talking about.
“You couldn’t sleep because of that and came out? Our baby must have been scared. You were startled, weren’t you? I’m sorry.”
“Hieung….”
When Lee Romi patted her back, Han Gru whimpered and burrowed into her embrace.
Sniff, sniff! Han Gru was sniffling and nestled in the warm embrace when it happened.
Grumble-
“Our baby, are you hungry?”
Shake shake.
“Grumble, it’s not Han Gru.”
“Huh? Then….”
In an instant, the color drained from Lee Romi’s face, and even Han Gru, who realized what this meant, turned pale and her eyes trembled.
“Wh, who’s there.”
Lee Romi spoke in a trembling voice.
Someone other than us is here.
Lee Romi moved Han Gru behind her, and Han Gru gripped the fork in her hand with renewed strength.
“I’m going to call for people. Come out right now.”
After a moment of silence.
Rustle-
The sound of leaves brushing came from the grass field.
A long-haired figure appeared hesitantly, shoulders hunched like a criminal, revealing herself cautiously.
Grumble grumble grumble-
Once again, a loud sound like thunder came from her stomach.
“…I’m sorry.”
Chuen hurriedly bowed her head deeply.
Han Gru’s eyes widened.
A ghostly pale face. Jet-black hair and eyes.
No matter how she looked, it was a familiar person.
“Jeju Island sister?”
Chapter The Price of Good Deeds
“Not Jeju Island… it’s Chuen.”
Lee Romi still didn’t lower her guard and asked cautiously.
“You’re not… the owner of this house, are you?”
“No.”
She lifted her head and spoke with detachment like some monk practicing asceticism.
“I don’t have a house. I’m being chased and have nowhere to go.”
Gasp! Han Gru drew in a breath, and Lee Romi closed her mouth in bewilderment.
‘Did she even resort to loan sharks?’
“Then in the field….”
“I was, hungry. …I’m sorry.”
Her speech wasn’t smooth, and despite her expressionless face, it was clear she was embarrassed.
Lee Romi let out a deep sigh and pressed her palm to her forehead.
“Ah, I thought you were someone the boss sent….”
“Boss?”
“Yeah. There’s this bad person who treats me really badly… I thought that person was trying to sabotage my broadcast, so I was waiting….”
Then what was that unpleasant stare? Lee Romi tilted her head in confusion as her words trailed off.
“Bad boss is bothering you? Should Han Gru scold them?”
Lee Romi chuckled softly.
“It’s okay. Even if Han Gru doesn’t scold them, they’re a bad person so scary ghosts will take them away.”
Just then, Chuen, who had been listening quietly, blinked and said blankly.
“I can take them away.”
“Huh?”
“Hm?”
When Lee Romi and Han Gru’s gazes met hers, her expressionless face turned slightly red as if embarrassed.
“Never mind….”
Lee Romi crossed her arms, let out a deep sigh, and stood up from her seat.
“I understand the situation… Anyway, since you’re not the House Owner, I think it would be best to talk with the Police.”
“What?!”
The one who asked back in surprise wasn’t Chuen, but Han Gru.
Chuen, who was kneeling, looked at Han Gru with a puzzled expression.
Han Gru quietly moved next to Chuen and looked up at Lee Romi with sparkling eyes.
“Chuu unnie is being chased.”
“Well….”
In Lee Romi’s mind flashed an image of a thin, small woman being chased by gangsters.
She looks like a foreigner, maybe she got scammed somewhere….
“Chuu unnie is hungry too….”
“That’s….”
Grumble-
Just then, Chuen’s stomach rumbled like thunder, and Han Gru drooped her eyebrows as if to say ‘see?’
“We have to help her.”
Han Gru said resolutely between Chuen and Lee Romi.
“Food first.”
“….”
Grumble-
“…I’m sorry.”
Chuen apologized again with an expressionless face, and Lee Romi covered her face with both hands.
“Han Gru, do you know this person?”
Han Gru nodded her head.
“A little.”
In the end, Lee Romi nodded once as if she had no choice.
I don’t know why I’m so weak to types that seem like I need to take care of them.
“…Wait here for a moment. I’ll make some rice balls and bring them to you. After you eat, we can talk about whether to call the police or wake someone else up.”
Having said that, Lee Romi turned her body toward the traditional stove.
There should be some rice left that she had saved for tomorrow, so she planned to mix in some sesame oil and make rice balls.
“Phew-”
When Romi left, Han Gru let out a sigh of relief and wiped her forehead.
Han Gru looked at Chuen pitifully, feeling a sense of kinship as fellow criminals with similar circumstances.
‘Hmm, police are dangerous after all.’
Moreover, Chuen was a guardian candidate.
The notification that Guardian Registration would be possible once the attachment level increased was still valid.
‘Guardian candidate = good person’
It was sad that a good person’s stomach was growling with hunger.
