24 – Rescue (6)

After completing the investigation at the Hoengseong Police Station,

… Now I was wondering how to go back to work.

The company car that Producer Cho Hyun-ho and I drove got completely smashed while trying to open the container box door.

“The manager said he would send a car.”

Producer Cho Hyun-ho ended the phone call with Manager Ko Kang-tae.

I considered taking a taxi, but it would be safest if the company would send a car.

“But…. Didn’t the manager say something? “Our car.”

“Yes, in the end, we saved Go Na-kyung, so that doesn’t matter. “It’s an old model anyway, so the price isn’t that high.”

I wondered if I might have to write another statement.

It was fortunate that Manager Go Kang-tae was not a stuck-up person.

“Producer… ….”

Gona-kyung said, pulling my shirt.

“Why?”

“Now the producer is producing me, or rather us…?” ?”

“Um… ….”

Jin Hae-sol wanted to be produced by me, but I don’t know what Go Na-kyung and Joo Do-yeon are like.

Yang Hae-in, the last time I bought him food—no, I didn’t buy it with my own money—but the effect seemed to be better than expected, and his way of looking at me improved slightly.

When I saw Go Na Kyung say something like this, I thought she looked at me favorably at least a little.

“Uh, uh… ? Why don’t you…… ?”

When I didn’t answer, he looked at my face as if he was getting restless, then lowered his gaze to the table and repeated.

“No, I’m going to do it…. “Let’s finish this case first.”

“Yes….”

There were two reasons why it was difficult to foster Berries right now.

First, because Afternoon Sweets hasn’t even debuted yet,

I had to get the afternoon sweets on track first, so I didn’t have much time.

In other words, I was able to start training for Berries only after finishing the afternoon sweets to some extent.

The second was the breakdown of trust between the Berryz members and me.

[Idol Producing] Because there was only one producer in the game, the minimum level of trust was not broken.

But now it was different from the game.

Because there was another producer besides me, Berryz thought that the ‘me’ of the past was incompetent, so he switched to another producer.

The results were horrendous, and she even almost ended up being raped.

In the current situation where the trust relationship has not yet been fully restored,

I was hesitant to be sure that the same thing would not happen again.

‘Let’s rebuild a relationship of trust with Berryz while producing Afternoon Sweets.’

After buying three cups of coffee at a nearby cafe, we all went to the park in front of the Hoengseong Police Station.

… I had to wait an hour and a half to get from Lucky Seven Entertainment’s headquarters in Seoul to here in Hoengseong.

Go Na-kyung, who had finished drinking her coffee, suddenly placed the disposable coffee cup on the bench and stood up.

And then he bowed his back.

“Thank you both…. For saving me…….”

“No. “Of course, we have to help because our idol is in danger.”

“Professor Lim is 100% correct.”

“Still…. Thank you… ….”

Now I had to think about how to respond to this incident at the company level.

Beyond illegal filming, it was even attempted rape.

Because it was done to a teenager who was only 18 years old, it was obvious that it would be featured on the 9 o’clock news.

“Professor Joe, could you call the lawyer and ask him to come to room 302 today?”

“I understand.”

“And does anyone know anything about psychotherapy?”

“Yes. “I will contact you.”

If you look closely, producer Cho Hyun-ho was a very bitter person.

You have so many connections.

Thanks to you, it was easy for me to do my work,

… I was a little jealous.

Quick.

A van stopped on the road in front of the park.

And then a woman got out of the driver’s seat and approached us.

It seemed like he was sent by Manager Ko Kang-tae.

“Oppa.”

A woman wearing a skirt suit approached producer Cho Hyun-ho straight away.

Producer Cho Hyun-ho’s expression hardened.

… What?

Oppa?

They were two people who gave off an unusual atmosphere.

“I told you not to call me that anymore, Geunyoung.”

“…… “I’m sorry, Senior Hyeonho.”

The atmosphere was somewhat cordial thanks to Go Na-kyung’s thank you message.

In an instant, the atmosphere transformed into a heavy atmosphere, as if one had fallen into mud.

At first glance, she seemed like producer Jo Hyun-ho’s ex-girlfriend.

… Did Manager Go Kang-tae not know that and just let him go?

A person who appeared to be producer Jo Hyun-ho’s ex-girlfriend noticed me and turned toward me.

Then he bowed his head slightly and said hello.

“Hello, I’m idol producer Jeon Geun-young.”

“Oh yes, hello. Likewise, I am idol producer Lim Boo-gil.”

“Yes, I heard it well.”

… My bad review?

Go Na-kyung also said to producer Jeon Geun-young in a low voice, “Hello….” Did.

Producer Jeon Geun-young said to Go Na-kyung, “It was very difficult, right?” He comforted me.

And then he looked at producer Cho Hyun-ho again and said.

“Senior Hyeonho, are you hurt?”

“Oh, it’s okay.”

“Really… ? You said you were okay when you got hurt before….”

“It’s really okay this time.”

Producer Jeon Geun-young held onto Producer Jo Hyun-ho’s body affectionately and looked around as if she was really worried.

… I have a feeling that Producer Jeon Geun-young still likes Producer Jo Hyun-ho.

Producer Cho Hyun-ho seemed to be trying to avoid producer Jeon Geun-young.

Did this happen because producer Cho Hyun-ho broke up?

Producer Jeon Geun-young couldn’t let go of his regrets.

“Geunyoung, let’s go now.”

“Yes, okay.”

We all rode together in the company car brought by producer Jeon Geun-young.

… It was a very new model compared to the company car that was assigned to me.

I will give you a nice car for this opportunity… Ji?

***

After returning to the company, I quickly wrote a press release, received approval from Manager Ko Kang-tae, and distributed it to media outlets.

Before the police made the announcement first.

In order for Lucky Seven Entertainment to receive less criticism and suffer less losses,

It was necessary to inform the company that it first discovered the atrocities committed by producer Jeong Oh-jun and filed a complaint.

– 777 Entertainment announced today that an internal employee had discovered s*xual violence against a celebrity in charge. 777 Entertainment takes measures such as exclusion from work, referral to a disciplinary committee, and criminal charges against the employee in question.

In office 302, I checked how the 9 o’clock news was appearing as intended.

I also looked at the comments on the article on the Internet, and fortunately, there were mostly only swear words about Oh Jung-jun.

I appealed that the company was doing its best to protect victims because I had assigned psychotherapists to the Berryz members.

“Producer, please leave work now.”

Manager Jeong Song-i came next to me and said.

… I had to stay until 9 o’clock to watch the 9 o’clock news, so I stayed at work.

If the reporters wrote the article strangely, they would have to quickly issue an additional press release to refute it.

“Are the Berries kids okay now?”

“Yes, I think it’s okay.”

I took Go Na-kyung to the first floor of the dorm, but all the Berryz members were already there.

As soon as they saw her late Na-kyung, her Berries members hugged her and cried.

No matter what, Berryz had a good bond among members.

… So, we all came together and called for a change in producers.

“How much will the stock price drop tomorrow, manager?”

“Well? Since this is Jeon Jeong-jun’s personal deviation, it is unlikely that he will fall too far, right?”

“If the stock price plummets and I take responsibility for it, the manager will take care of the kids.”

“…… “If that happens, I will blow the whistle and get kicked out as well.”

Manager Jeong Song-i pouted his lips.

If you look closely, she has a childlike side to her.

Although she was basically pretty and looked cute.

Knock knock.

Someone knocked on the door of office number 302.

At this time?

Manager Jeong Song-i said, “Please come in.” So, the door opened.

Cursed Dolls members were Choi Joo-yoon, Kang Eva, and Gong Si-on.

Oh, now that I think about it, I was busy today so we didn’t meet even once.

All three of you must have been very worried because you like me.

“Producer, you worked hard today….”

Choi Ju-yoon said as he hugged me.

It was so sudden that my face turned red too.

After about 10 seconds, she came out of my arms.

“Producer! “No one else may know, but we know that the producer works harder than anyone else!!”

This time, Gong Shi-on hugged me tightly.

Her rather large breasts pressed against my upper body,

… She sang her national anthem in her mind, barely able to calm her blood rushing through her body.

Eva Kang poked Gongsion’s back, who was holding me for over 10 seconds, with her finger.

Then Gong Si-ion released me, saying, “Oh, sorry!”

Eva Kang gently embraced me, as if replacing me.

“… ….”

Unspoken. Expressionless.

I took a look at the status window.

[Name: Eva Kang]

[Current thoughts: It’s good that producers are recognized as competent, but the more women they have to compete with, the more…. This is why a man who is so handsome and capable is said to be rather tired…….]

I had more complicated feelings than I thought….

Since I am not Eva Kang’s boyfriend right now, it was very difficult for her to tell me to relax.

Well, on the other hand, I was hoping that if he was insensitive and flirtatious like the male lead in a harem romantic comedy cartoon, his romantic feelings for me would fade a bit.

Eva Kang also escaped from my arms just 10 seconds later.

… Did you agree in advance that you would only sleep for 10 seconds each?

“Do you like it?”

Mom, I’m surprised.

I was surprised to suddenly hear Manager Jeong Song-i’s voice behind me like a ghost.

“Why, manager, do you want to hug me too?”

“Yes? Oh no…. That is… ….”

I was definitely waiting for the response, ‘Am I crazy?’

But Manager Jeong Song-i’s face turned bright red.

… Uh, what is it?

“Producer! Then we’ll go back to our accommodation! See you tomorrow!!”

“It must be difficult because you are busy…. Please cheer up… !!”

Cursed Dolls members—Gong Si-on, Choi Ju-yoon, and Kang Eva briefly greeted me and then left office 302.

“We’re leaving work now, manager.”

Now that the media reports are okay, I should go home, wash up, and sleep.

… I was more tired than other times.

“Producer, I want to ask you something.”

“Which one?”

Manager Jeong Song-i looked up at me and said.

“Do you remember when my birthday is?”

“Yes?”

Manager Jeong Song-i’s birthday?

I quickly searched through my memories.

Manager Jeong Song-i also had a simple profile in the [Idol Producing] Game.

In other words, there was also a setting for her birthday.

“Isn’t it July 17th?”

“Yes…. Memory… “You are doing it.”

But do you usually memorize even the birthdays of your coworkers?

Well, I thought that could be possible since I had been working with manager Jeong Song-i for several years.

Maybe we could have bought a cake and celebrated briefly here.

“Ho, by any chance, when is the producer’s birthday?”

“Is it my birthday? “It’s September 24th.”

“…… Yes? September 24th??”

Manager Jeong Song-i widened his eyes.

What, did I say something strange?

Ah!

f*ck, I’m screwed.

I can’t believe I missed this.

I am a producer who is still the main character of the [Idol Producing] Game.

In other words, even the birthday is the birthday of the game protagonist.

“Oh, sorry, it was January 20th. “I was mistaken.”

“Yes… ….”

In an instant, I became a fool who was confused about when my own birthday was….

But when I think about it again, my ID actually says September 24th, right?

What happened?

It was a strange story from the moment I entered the game world,

To say that I was possessed as the main character of the game, my face, my body, and the objects around me were all mine.

But the people around didn’t notice it.

As if to everyone else but me,

It felt like I had been hypnotized into appearing as a producer, the main character of the game.

“Producer, please show me your ID card or driver’s license.”

“I’m sorry, I left it at home.”

“… Is that so.”

“I’ll show you when I bring it next time.”

I smiled awkwardly and carried my luggage,

I escaped from office number 302 as if I was running away.
