#739. donât you know who i am
* * *
To be honest.
Charlotteâ¦
No, Black Dog didnât know much about the violinist.
As a gunman.
As a waitress.
She had never enjoyed a noble hobby like the violin.
However, he could only tell that the man named Lee in front of him was a very famous violinist.
Ferrick, who brokered the job, told me to be careful because heâs a VVIP customer?
Of course, that was also the reason.
But the most important thing was the fact that this manâs lodging was a branch of the Leviathan Hotel.
No matter what branch it is.
Leviathan is the best hotel in the world.
As much as it guarantees customer safety and the best service, it is of course so ignorant that even the cost of lodging alone can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It is famous for being picky about the president of a country or even the worldâs richest people.
The fact that he occupied the entire top floor of a place like this gave an idea of his wealth and status.
âWealthy solicitors, no customersâ¦â
Thatâs why Black Dog decided.
He said he would make a lot of money by being hired as a bodyguard by this tout.
âhmm.â
ââ¦â
âHmm.â
ââ¦is there something you donât like?â
So it was.
Contrary to the cold appearance.
Why did Black Dog feel uneasy inside?
It was because he had seen Leeâs sullen eyes several times before.
Whether the ransom is too expensive.
A female gunman is insecure.
The impression is too scary, etc.
Because the writers who tried to hire them for all sorts of reasons but canceled them usually looked like that.
Fortunately, he didnât like her.
âMiss, do you not know who I am?â
â¦but for a more embarrassing reason.
A normal person would be stupid.
However, after a short silence, Black Dog answered the question, which would have been asked by a world-class musician.
âShould I know?â
âWellâ¦â
As if pondering something.
Watching Lee tap the armrest with her finger, she regretted it a little.
âIâm sure he knows.â
Itâs common for celebrities to feel offended by people who donât know them.
Maybe because of this answer, I didnât even know that I couldnât get hired.
But I couldnât help it.
Because she couldnât lie.
âWhat good. It wasnât unexpected⦠Shall we start with something to drink?â
After staring at her like that, Lee eventually suffocated and laughed, and opened her mouth.
And I heard a small bell on the table.
with my daughter
âDid you call?â
âDo you have any whiskey?â
âIâm sorry, but what I can recommend is about 65 years old McKellan Fine & Rare.â
âHmm, not bad. Two drinks on the rocks.â
âAll right. Please wait a moment.â
The manager, who had withdrawn and returned, put down two glasses of whiskey and bowed politely before exiting the door.
Watching Lee pick up the glass, Black Dog admired it inwardly.
The polite attitude of the manager of Leviathan?
Of course, that was great too.
But what caught my attention more than that was Leeâs calm attitude toward the hospitality.
like from birth.
Or over hundreds of years.
At the end of living while being served.
It seems to have taken it for granted.
An aristocratic dignity that ordinary people could not imitate no matter how much they learned was naturally present in him.
âThis is what real upper class meansâ¦â
âDoes the lady have a drink too?â
ââ¦not really.â
âHmm yes? Itâs a pity then, but this whiskey should just be thrown away. Not the best, but roughly tens of thousands of dollars for a cupâ¦â
Gulp.
it was immediately
Black Dog lifted the whiskey glass in front of him and shot it one-shot.
ââ¦â
âWhy?â
âNo, I wanted to give you another drink because it was so delicious.â
ââ¦no more.â
Black Dog shook his head.
Even if you sell tens of thousands of hamburgers for tens of thousands of dollars, you inadvertently drank it for an amount that is difficult to earn, but what she needs is money, not alcohol.
It was because I wanted to avoid a situation where the down payment was reduced by the amount of alcohol while drinking like this.
Did you read her feelings?
Lee, who was looking at her with strange eyes, eventually smiled and took out the contract.
âHmm then, shall we talk about work?â
and.
discussion started.
â24-hour security is difficult?â
ââ¦If youâre going to stay at Leviathan anyway, you just have to keep it during the day.â
âWell, there is no guarantee that it will be like thisâ¦â
Security time down payment, etc.
Several stories come and go.
meet each otherâs conditions
It was unusual for her, who usually offered conditions without trifles like this and ignored them if the other person didnât accept them.
But I couldnât help it.
This time, the units of the amount were different.
ââ¦Head hurts.â
Was it because he was racking his brains to get even more of the price of a hamburger?
Black Dog, who continued to negotiate without backing down an inch, even feeling dizzy from a headache that got worse as time went on.
as if observing something.
Or as if calculating or discriminating.
Lee muttered involuntarily as he watched her furrow narrow.
âWhat should I do for now?â
ââ¦What does it mean?â
âIt means that I will do it on the condition the lady wants. Of course, without cutting a single penny.â
âreally?â
âI have a lot of supporters. Just say a word and you can get any amount of money.â
ââ¦.â
âThis solicitor just wants to get rid of all his moneyâ¦â
This kind of guy who doesnât know how precious money should be kidnapped and robbed and experience what poverty means.
Why do you have to stand guard?
Though thinking inwardly, Black Dog nodded.
Whether itâs the money of a solicitor.
Whether itâs someone elseâs money.
Because there is no sin in money.
So determined, she signed the contract.
And Lee, who received the fan, tried to sign next to it, but suddenly stopped.
âHmm, come to think of it, if I sign this document, the lady will now be my bodyguard, right?â
âokay.â
âAm I going to be your employer?â
âWhy?â
âItâs not that great. I think if you are a bodyguard, there will be a word to call your employer more like a bodyguard.â
âWhat if you donât like it?â
Black Dog raised an eyebrow.
Then he crossed his arms and spoke coldly.
No matter how hired she was, she didnât have the heart to bow down and use honorifics for a bastard like this.
As if I knew that.
Li also nodded.
âEven if you donât like it, it doesnât matter. I have no intention of cutting the price by catching such faults.â
âThenâ¦â
âIf you call me whatever you want instead, I can do it like this.â
sigh
Contract with one â0â added.
âWhat shall I call you, sir?â
How about using a name?
If you are a customer who gives you this much money, you should use honorifics, not honorifics.
either brother
either the owner
the emperorâs majesty.
Iâll call you whatever you want.
At the end of looking at her with a mysterious expression, not knowing whether to laugh at her sincere words.
Lee finally smiled.
âCall me boss.â
A gunman who doesnât care about money.
It was the moment when Black Dog was hired as a guard dog for a mere violinist.
* * *
âDonât do itâ¦â
Leaving the hotel.
she sighed.
No matter how much I was blinded by the tenfold increase in down payment, signing a contract with the condition of calling such a man the boss.
The more I thought about it, the more bizarre it was.
But I couldnât help it.
Because itâs too much money to turn down?
Of course, that was also the reason, but above all, at the time, she was not in a state where she could judge her coldly.
âWas that perfumeâ¦?â
while staying there.
Dyeing the tip of the nose all the time.
A sweet scent that was so clear that it made me feel dizzy and even gave me a headache.
As he left the room, Black Dog frowned, feeling that the dizziness and headache had finally subsided.
I wondered where the smell came from.
It was only now that I had left the room that I realized that the scent was from Lee.
âI really donât like it.â
Do you spray perfume like that?
Youâre an annoying guest in many ways.
While muttering in his heart, Black Dog put on a slightly regretful expression.
ââ¦the scent was nice.â
It gave me a headache, but the scent itself wasnât unpleasant.
No, to put it bluntly, the opposite.
Just smelling the incense made me feel at ease and strangely improved.
Even Black Dog, who had never been drunk before, felt like he was drunk.
âIs that perfume expensive?â
So she thought.
I guess I should try to find Leeâs perfume.
If you use it properly in a smaller amount, you will be able to fully enjoy that wonderful scent without a headache.
The problem is the price.
Considering Leeâs behavior of using only the highest quality in everything, the price of perfume would not be cheap.
Would it be necessary to spend that money to buy such a perfume?
Despite repeated agony, she changed her clothes in the abandoned building as always.
Then, in the form of returning to Charlotte from Black Dog, he returned to [Soybean Burger of Happiness] and said hello.
I didnât want to say hello.
âMy aunt, did I goâ¦?â
â¦unless something strange was out of sight.
what are you looking at
When Charlotte blinks her eyes with a puzzled expression on her face.
Jenna came out of the kitchen with a tray.
âAre you here?â
ââ¦yes.â
âYou didnât bring anything to eat today. wait a little bit Iâll make your burger soon.â
âThe burger is done.â
âIs he really going out to eat again? I told you not to be picky!â
âI think eating only burgers every day is more unbalanced.â
âYou canât be picky eaters! How much my bean burger changes every day.â
Was it sad that she only ate outside food every day?
Turning her head to avoid Jennyâs eyes, which raised her double wick, Charlotte changed the topic.
âRather than that, what is âthatâ of your aunt?â
âOh you mean him?â
It was then that he seemed to remember what he was doing.
Jenny, with a sad expression on her face, hurriedly approached the other side of the dining room and put down the tray she was holding.
Then, he hand-feed the chopped burger from the tray and continued.
âIt was the kid in our backyard. I gave him a burger because he seemed hungry, and he followed me all the way inside. What is it?â
ââ¦So youâre thinking of raising it?â
âThereâs no reason why you shouldnât. It looks cute, so we can use it as our mascot.â
âThe price of food is expensiveâ¦.â
âSo how much does this little kid eat? Since you donât eat my food anyway, you should feed him at least.â
ââ¦â
In the end, Charlotte could only nod in silence.
Itâs like sheâs such a hottie.
Because I already knew
From the time he saved a suspicious fugitive like himself who had collapsed alone in the wilderness and put him to work at the store.
Thatâs howâ¦
the blue bird that ate the burger has become the mascot of [Happiness Bean Burger].
Half of the trembling that I donât know what this is going on.
With an exquisite face mixed with half of the satisfaction that this burger is better than I thought.
