Returner's Magic Laundry

Chapter 75

‘Hey, you’ve got it!’

There were many other cars in the sleepy shelter, so if I stopped the car, it seemed that other people would stand out.

‘He has something suitable for him.’

“The seeds of the wisteria!”

A single seed of wisteria, wrapped in a faint light, was summoned on the palm of her hand.

When I opened the window and made a parabolic flying gesture with my arm, the seeds slowly flew away with a faint light.

A small light could be seen disappearing into the dirt ground right next to the sports car.

‘Please. No one gets hurt.’

Looking in the rearview mirror, I could see the seeds of the wisteria growing in an instant and enveloping the sports car.

Every time the hard and thick vines tighten the car, it is crispy! Crisp! broke and squeaked.

The bewildered driver then lowered the window and tried to get out, but the vines grew like a grate and wrapped around the window, blocking even this.

The sports car was soon engulfed in vines, shrunk little by little, and was lifted up into the air little by little.

On the floor, I could see the crumbling debris falling from a distance, but then it moved away from my gaze.

the next morning.

In the news, events that occurred on the Incheon Expressway were briefly covered in the accident news.

[This is the news of the accident that happened on the Incheon Expressway last night. The news is that a sports car that had been resting at a sleepy shelter was caught up in a lush wisteria vine overnight. Currently, 119 paramedics are dispatched to cut the rattan and rescue the driver.]

Wisteria growing on the shoulder and surrounding the sports car was treated with considerable importance, and paramedics were seen cutting the rattan with chainsaws.

Inside the driver’s seat, I could see the driver shouting at the paramedics.

[This is just breaking news. The news is that the sports car wrapped in vines that I was informed of a while ago was a car that ran away after being hit and run before entering the drowsy shelter. Let’s see the video of the accident caught by the traffic camera.]

The video captured by the traffic camera even contained a scene where the sports car veered out of its lane and the van collided with the median and floated in the air.

After that, the dandelion spores blocked the camera and couldn’t see any more.

[This is what was caught in the video due to a camera malfunction. Fortunately, the driver of the van was not injured. Police say that the driver of the sports car was driving under the influence of alcohol and that the accident occurred.]

‘I was drunk driving, too.’

Then the guests came in and the TV was turned off.

“Oh, Annam-san was watching the news too.”

“Ah yes.”

“Are there any strange things in the world? How could a wisteria grow so overnight?”

“Iknow, right. Whoops.”

“Well, that car is a hit and run car. It was a punishment from heaven.”

After writing the customer’s contact information in the ledger, he handed over a receipt with the amount and number of clothes.

Days passed, and the dry cleaner didn’t seem to notice that the accident had something to do with me.

As usual, when I came home from delivery, the mart aunt and the cafe’s boss Yu ran in a hurry.

“Anna, how are you?”

“Yes, what? What’s going on?”

“exam? How did the test result go?”

I think I came here because I was curious about the results of the laundry technician test last month.

“Ah… … Is that today?”

“Look at him, this is your test. Why are you so uninterested?”

“Of course it was… … I guess.”

“You still have to check it out.”

“Yeah. That’s it.”

I opened the drawer, took out my admission ticket, and dialed the phone number written on the admission ticket.

On my cell phone, I heard the sounds of Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Yu, whose ears were tight, swallowing their saliva.

When I entered my application number, a recorded response came out.

―Exam number 0000-000 is… …

Before hearing all the answers, Mr. Yoo takes his phone and puts it to his ear.

Hearing the result, his expression was serious.

“What did you say?”

The mart aunt stabbed Yoo in the side to tell her to speak quickly to her impatience

After closing the folder phone, Mr. Yoo distorts the wrinkles on his face and makes his face as serious as possible.

“fire… … .”

“Is it inconsistent?”

When her supermarket aunt stopped her, her boss Yu turned her suddenly to her and spoke her earnestly.

“fire… … Did you turn it off?”

“What fire?”

“It looks like you left the bathroom light on.”

“Oh, don’t play around!”

“Ah Okay. Actually sum… … .”

“pass?”

“synthesis… … I found a delicious mushroom hotpot in Jeongeok, shall I go there soon?”

“No, you bastard!”

When the mart clerk clenched her fists and flirted with her, then boss Yoo spoke properly.

“Hey, it’s pass. pass. What do you do knowing everything? There’s no way Anna’s going to fall!”

“pass? Whoa!”

The mart aunt pressed her thick body against mine and hugged her, choking her breath.

“end… … Thank you. huh”

“Today is a pork belly party after work! Please put the table on the roof.”

“Yeah. Okay.”

Then, the mart woman stares at Yoo.

“Hey, I’ve been looking for drinks.”

“No, I should have a drink on a day like this. Do you just want to meet?”

“Okay, okay. Today, the mart butchers are shooting the highest quality beef.”

“Oh yea!”

I like Mr. Yu more.

“Isn’t this supposed to be a placard?”

At the words of the old woman, I flinched for a moment.

I wonder if it’s real

“old lady. Just that, please.”

begged fervently

“why? It’s so good.”

“It’s just us. people insult me I’ll hang it up in the laundry room instead. Laundry technician recognized by the state! like this.”

“Oh, that’s fine too.”

Two more excited than me.

Anyway, as expected, I passed the exam, and of course I felt good.

The two of you who made a reservation for the beef dinner party went back to work, and something came to mind, so I turned on the computer and opened the mail.

It has been three days since my friends went to France.

Even if I couldn’t make a phone call, I thought I would have sent an email.

Unsurprisingly, an e-mail from Ko Gun-soo had arrived.

I have attached a few photos along with the story that he arrived well and is digesting the film festival schedule, the story of Kim Sang-il woven from a phobia of flying on the plane, the story of a Cannes city tour, and the story of meeting many directors and film officials.

It took a long time to download the attached file.

In 2020, the pace was unimaginable, so I felt like my stomach was going to explode while waiting.

After downloading and clicking the photos one by one, photos of three playful friends appeared in the landscape of Cannes, where the blue sky and the sea meet.

Some pictures of the food were attached, saying that the price was too high and he was only looking for Asian restaurants to eat.

‘Don’t worry about money, children, buy and eat.’

He also attended parties hosted by the Korean Film Council or a party hosted by a film company individually, and there were many photos taken with strangers and foreigners.

One of them caught my eye, and it was Choi Gyu-jik, the CEO of a film company who offered me my first film production in my previous life.

‘I met you too.’

It was at the Cannes Film Festival that I also met CEO Choi Gyu-jik.

‘You must have already made an offer to make a feature film.’

You should have asked me to show you the screenplay.

It’s after I returned to Korea, so I didn’t have to worry about it now.

As I flipped through the other photos, another new person caught my eye.

‘this person is?’

Did he come to the Cannes Film Festival?

In my previous life, I had never met this person in Cannes.

Oh Na-kyung, the representative of the new film company NEO.

Later, by releasing works that combine both workmanship and popularity one after another, he is raised as a filmmaker attracting attention as a new wind in the film industry.

CEO Na-Kyung Oh met with Gun-Soo Ko!

It couldn’t have been more exciting.

Hopefully, you will be given the opportunity to choose between two studios.

If so, the choice is of course… … .

Move the mouse and click the next picture.

I glanced at the picture indifferently.

Most of the photos were taken with the three of us or with Korean directors I met at the film festival.

Then, I felt a familiar face passed by, so I clicked on the photo that had passed by again.

My gaze stopped at one picture, and I took a breath.

A woman who was shoulder to shoulder with three friends and took a picture with her caught her eye.

I was so startled that I jumped up from my seat and stepped back.

Kudang!

The chair fell over and made a sharp squeal.

‘midwinter!’

It’s definitely winter

But why is she in Cannes?

Her moment remembered what she had said at her first meeting in her previous life.

― Director Ahn Nam. It’s not our first time. We first met in Cannes. I can’t seem to remember.

I don’t remember seeing her in her cannes.

At that time, I was only interested in my films, and I didn’t remember the people I passed by.

The first place I met her was at a local film festival director’s meeting where she showed my work.

There I fell in love with her at first sight.

She said she had been interested in her ever since she met me in Cannes.

That’s how our first love began.

I staggered and leaned against the wall.

While returning, I thought that this moment would come someday, but it was too soon.

No, we haven’t met yet, so I can’t say it’s fast.

My heart was pounding.

‘But why with my friends?’

In the photo, the late Geon-soo and Han Winter were looking at each other and smiling broadly, and Kim Sang-il and Kwak Ki-hyuk could not take their eyes off her.

Go Gun-soo This child had a bad habit of looking at anyone with a vague gaze.

There were not one or two women who fell for those eyes.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

‘surely?’

When I met her for the first time she said that she liked my work so much.

Now, that work has become the work of Ko Kun-soo.

As she is not filming her films, will she be able to reconnect with her?

All kinds of thoughts ran through my head.

She picked up her cell phone and called her friends who would be in France.

She was so curious about what she was going to do when she met her and what she was talking about.

She received no one.

Looking at the time, it must be midnight in France now.

‘These slugs. Still, when you get a call, you have to get up and answer it!’

I couldn’t get things out of my hands all day.

I just wanted to know something.

I was worried that I might be dating Go Geon-soo.

For this moment alone, I wanted to stick my finger into Ko Geon-soo’s faint eyes.

jealousy.

was jealous

For a moment, I felt dizzy and stumbled.

Why?

I break up with her eventually.

I marry another man and she also marries another.

Whatever it will be, she’ll end up breaking up in the worst way possible, so why are you so excited about her existence?

I do not know.

It was confusing.

When evening came, the mart aunt and owner Yoo returned with meat and alcohol.

But my mind was filled with thoughts of midwinter, and I couldn’t listen to any of the stories the two of them had.

There was only soulless laughter.

My friends still didn’t answer the phone.

the next day too.

the next day too.

And time passed, and the last day of the Cannes Film Festival.

Tonight, the results will be announced.

For days, I didn’t even know how her time flew by with her thoughts about her.

-Annam-ah, what’s wrong with your face?

– Annam, what’s wrong?

These are the words my neighbors around the world have been saying when they see me.

‘You must have been told to attend the closing ceremony by now. Don’t these kids call? Could it be that the award was a failure?’

Of course, that wasn’t the only thing I really wanted to ask.

I woke up to the sound of the door opening.

When I turned around, Se-yeon Shin and Jin-ju Park were coming into the laundry.
