chapter 164
Episode 164 I’m in the article? (4)
* * *
Autumn is the season to end the year.
Winter is the season to prepare for the next year.
So, it wasn’t time for a proper signing season to start yet.
Let alone the stove league, it was a period in which even autumn baseball had not even started.
However, the hero scouts were busier than ever to move.
Because there were quite a few cadets looking forward to graduation, well beyond the second half of the year.
There is not a single divinity to the extent that the word big fish is disrespectful, how many times has it been seen so many times?
In general, the news was welcome, but there were not a few people who looked at it with skepticism.
This place was no exception.
“So, is there any news that the recruitment was successful?”
“Not yet. We hear stories of successful contact from time to time, but most of the time it’s a rejection of the atmosphere.”
“I knew it. plague. Some of them seemed like they were chewing openly.”
“I don’t know if the academy side is also cooperative, but that side is also lukewarm, so there is nothing we can do about it.”
Kruger frowned, as if he didn’t like the situation at all.
Early on, he tried to contact Trinity Academy several times, but the reason was that he was unable to recruit Dae-eo.
Of course, Jerome, who succeeded in conciliating him, was also a great talent if he was great, but it was a very disappointing result compared to the time he put in.
“Anyway, things these days are very full. When we were young, we used to say thank you for calling us.”
“You know where you go and say something like that, you tend to hear gossip, right?”
“So, did I say something wrong? Eugene?”
“I mean, don’t be too grumpy. For Jerome, it’s still not a bad achievement.”
“How much money and time wasted at Trinity Academy, how can you be satisfied with just Jerome? Yeah, it’s not bad. But with all that hard work, I was able to get Chun Hyun-woo to join the team!”
“I can’t even tell you to calm down because I understand your feelings. Ainaya, the ransom price was so high that I couldn’t help it, but I thought Jerome was the best move. But are there any other real prospects? Where did such a bastard come from all of a sudden, Won.”
Eugene was much better off compared to Kruger, who ran wildly on the road saying he was deceived, but he couldn’t hide his disappointment that he was also comforting him.
He didn’t appreciate Trinity Academy’s prospects, because he was the one who had turned his attention to Magnolia in the past.
“Naoto, you look better than us, how is it going?”
“There is nothing else here. Do you know what is different about being the same Japanese?”
“I never imagined it would be such a long story. If you have tea, you can split it up and eat it.”
“It’s a no-brainer. I don’t know if I can even build a discussion with the current head of the Mitsuru side.”
“That’s something I want to say a little bit about. Even though we are the ones who have to move anyone’s heart if we give them money, it’s a different situation to get involved with that family.”
“You know why, so why did you ask? then.”
“Isn’t Park Seong-jin different? In fact, this year and next year’s editions seem to be all going the way he wants them to. We don’t know, but since they have their base in East Asia, things seem a little better, right?”
Naoto chuckled as if he had no chin, then shook his head.
“If it were a yangban who would pass over something like that, someone other than me would have taken it sooner. No, I don’t know if anyone can negotiate before that. Your own opinion is of course important, but there are people who keep trying to cut off the conversation in the middle. It doesn’t seem like it belongs to anything… ”
“Well, they must be the ones trying to intercept. Isn’t it obvious?”
“no. I don’t think so. If it was, the story would have come out somewhere. I already have a team that I’ve decided on. But I’ve never heard of such a thing.”
“Maybe I can see you. Where the hell is that guy usually a weak daddy? One little haircut is a very unusual guy, so he’s probably going to keep rolling his balls. How can I raise my own ransom? In particular, he has one more year left until graduation.”
“Well, Chloe will call her a fox for nothing.”
“Wait a minute, there is news about Park Seong-jin… What’s this?”
Kruger couldn’t hide his embarrassment.
So did others who heard the news.
[ I have no intention of belonging anywhere… The ‘Park Seong-jin’ team should be formed by themselves.]
[ Park Seong-jin, starting another reckless challenge.]
[“ Thanks for the suggestion, but no help.” Park Seong-jin, who even rejected all sponsorship proposals, is it really okay?]
“I wasn’t cunning, I was just crazy.”
“I turned down the offer last year too, but at the time I thought it was just a show to raise the price. It was not something a person without common sense would spit out without any support. He didn’t even respond this year, so I thought it was a bluff… ”
“In the end, there were no winners.”
“With this, I have barely saved my face. Of the remaining properties, Jerome is one of the better ones. But, the rich old people must have been very hot. If you go like this, you will lose all the prospects with money and time.”
At those words, the three of you smiled bitterly.
In any case, the bitter voices of those furious old people were theirs to listen to.

While I was leisurely enjoying my time with my lover, the hero industry seemed to be in full swing.
‘Who will be the winner of the recruitment market who will occupy all the members including me’ was a hot topic, but from my point of view, it was just a story that only made me laugh.
Because I had no intention of going anywhere.
However, I felt it was necessary to cool the overheated atmosphere to some extent, so I decided to tell Chloe about the formation of the team.
“I want to start a team.”
“yes.”
“Okay, I’ll help you.”
Chloe gladly accepted my offer as if she had been waiting for it.
Without even thinking about it, he immediately tried to take the documents in his hand.
With such an active reaction, it was on my side that was rather embarrassing.
Because I knew that a light discussion would be rough.
“what are you doing? Don’t hand over the documents. do not want to do it?”
“Why don’t you reconsider one more time, I thought you were going to say something like that.”
“I? Why am I doing that?”
“You tend to approach the cadets’ stories with caution. That’s why.”
Chloe always smiles with a smirk, but today, it was especially severe.
As if something very happy happened.
Of course, I couldn’t understand Chloe’s reaction like that.
It is Chloe’s expression that immediately rots away as soon as there is even the slightest nuisance.
“Well, that’s not wrong. Because I can’t ruin the lives of the babies who are still green. At least until the moment you’re in my arms, I should caress you. But, you are a bit of an exception.”
“Because I’m crazy?”
“No, not that.”
“So?”
“Because you have already left my arms. Other children will say that it’s a cage inside my fence, but anyway, when you were dreaming, you crossed the fence and went out into the outside world, didn’t you? Of course, you are still my students, but I have to prepare to send them off soon.”
Chloe wasn’t just an empty talk.
It wasn’t the usual mischievous smile, but the peculiar smile that made me realize that he was sincere.
It was a leader-like appearance of Chloe that I had not seen in a long time.
“thank you.”
“Thank you, but I should be grateful.”
“… why?”
“You have to form a team quickly so that the bastards who slander me will fall away. I get dozens of calls a day. Thirty percent of them are questions about you. Do you know how annoying it is? After all, this is what I do to make myself comfortable.”
Then yes.
For some reason, I wondered why this person, who is similar to me, was so serious.
“If it’s only 3,000, it’s small. Isn’t it worth it?”
“Don’t you think I’m lazy like you? There’s an image of having Oscar take care of it, but I’m also busy.”
“Oh, it was. Oh yeah.”
“Don’t pretend you forgot.”
Chloe grunted, took the paperwork in her hand, signed it quickly and handed it over.
“thank you.”
“If you’re grateful, don’t make anything that bothers me next time.”
“Let’s try.”
“When you see everything you want to see, go out.”
Slowly from here, a red signal of danger was coming from my head, so I hurriedly left the president’s office.
“… I don’t know what documents he brought. I, too, who signed it there, is too foolish. After all, is it a corporation that develops attachment to children who work a lot? Of course, considering that most of these achievements are self-fulfilling, it’s not even at the level that I’ve done anything… I hope you do well though.”
