The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 354
Episode 354 Unexpected Talent (1)
“Why do we have to be out here facing the cold wind?”
“Yes, I’m waiting for a series taxi.”
“Series Taxi?”
“You rode it on your way home from the hospital earlier, right? that.”
“….”
The crown prince keeps his mouth shut at this person’s retort. He still seemed unable to adapt to the streets of Korea. That’s not even possible. It’s all filled with cement and concrete. Numerous villas and waves of apartments visible in the distance. It might be a bit overwhelming for someone from another dimension who opened their eyes for the first time today.
“But it’s a taxi.”
“uh.”
“Where are we going to ride it this time?”
“To receive something very important.”
“much?”
“money.”
“….”
The crown prince silences his mouth again. I was worried that he might say ‘that’ out loud on the street, so I quickly went to his side and whispered to him.
“I told you, the winnings. Wait a minute, shh. “Don’t say that so loudly that others can hear it.”
“…Oh, I understand. A thief might target it.”
“I’m more scared of scammers than petty thieves.”
“Sagira… Are there people like that in this world too?”
“of course. No, it’s worse.”
“It’s worse?”
“uh.”
He shrugged his shoulders towards the grumpy prince.
“When it comes to money, there are a lot of people who don’t have friends, relatives, even family.”
“is it. Well, if that’s the case, it’s not that new.”
“Isn’t it new?”
What does that mean?
This time the crown prince shrugged his shoulders.
“What use are friends, relatives, and family in the face of power? The imperial palace where I lived was also like that. “Thanks to you, after listening to it, I feel reassured that it’s similar.”
“ah. is it.”
“yes.”
“Well, you don’t have to worry about people around you scamming you.”
“Why?”
“Because I had no family.”
As I spoke, a feeling of self-destruction and self-destruction arose without my knowledge.
“My parents died young. There are no brothers or sisters. “I don’t have any relatives I really interacted with.”
“Can you even get married?”
“….”
“You look like you’re quite old, but to this age?”
“….”
“It’s truly unfortunate. but. Even from what I can see, he doesn’t have a particularly outstanding appearance, so I can understand that.”
“hey.”
“Isn’t it true? It’s true that the body they stole from me looks much better. Moreover, this body… even the proportions are strange. The height is almost the same as before, but the legs are relatively short. “The waist is unnecessarily long.”
“sorry. “I couldn’t do anything about it because I focused on lengthening the spine.”
“….”
“But wait a minute. After apologizing, it seems a bit absurd. If you think about it that way, your body that I suddenly came into was going to die in 90 days?”
“But that…”
“You couldn’t help it? Are you saying that it was not your will to suffer from illness? So do i. Are my legs short because I want them to be short? Was it because you wanted to be short? Did you want your face to look like that and not be able to get married? Wow, you’re even more upset now that I’ve sorted this out?”
“…I’m sorry.”
“I just want you to know that I’m sorry. “Ah, here comes the taxi.”
Just then, the taxi I booked through the app arrived.
Rachiel sat in the back seat side by side with the crown prince. It’s been a while, so it’s nice to see the engine sound and vibration, but it’s also a bit awkward. The feeling of running down the road. Even a procession of numerous vehicles running side by side.
The taxi passed by the Madu-dong academy district in Ilsan. Meanwhile, Rachiel silently looked out the window. The crown prince sitting next to him was also the same. The two were each caught by the scenery flowing through the opposite window.
Then, when the crown prince opened his mouth, the taxi was stopped at the Homexrus intersection in Baekseok-dong, waiting for the left turn signal.
“People’s shadows look strange.”
“…hmm?”
What kind of nonsense is this? I looked back at the crown prince. The crown prince seemed to have no interest in this area and was just looking out the window. To be more precise, I was observing people one after another waiting for the green light at the crosswalk in front of the intersection subway station entrance.
“It may sound strange, but it’s true. People’s shadows appear divided into two colors. “Why?”
“How can it be two colors?”
“Red and blue.”
“….”
This isn’t about giving you red tissues or blue tissues.
However, Rachiel did not easily ignore the prince’s words. Although we didn’t hang out together for a long time, through my experience dealing with him, I was able to see that the crown prince’s personality was more serious than he seemed. In particular, he rarely made light jokes.
I wasn’t joking when I said that.
“Can you tell me in a little more detail?”
“You can do it, but…”
The crown prince glanced at the taxi driver. Rachiel responded slyly.
“hey. What are you doing with the concept? are you okay. Scream. “You’re practicing anyway.”
“…Is that so?”
“of course.”
“i get it. Then-”
Fortunately(?), the crown prince caught the hint he was giving at the right time. He cleared his throat slightly and spoke calmly.
“It wasn’t like this when I was discharged from the hospital and went home. But it’s been like this since it came out again. It’s true. “People’s shadows began to appear in two colors: red and blue.”
“Can you feel any difference between the two?”
“does not exist. Just-”
“Just?”
“When I see people with red shadows, I feel wary. I don’t know why either. Feeling dangerous? I don’t think that’s the case. “I got the feeling that he was going to come up to me and flatter me with a shady plan.”
“Then… what about the blue shadow?”
“When I see people who have that, I feel at ease. Feeling trustworthy? At least I feel like he doesn’t have bad intentions towards me. How strange. Could it be that this world is something like this from the beginning? “I don’t think so.”
“Yeah, no.”
As I listened, I felt like Rakiel knew.
The two colors of the shadow that were not visible when he was discharged from the hospital earlier, but are now visible to the crown prince. That’s right….
“The Spirit of Money, that thing’s performance is solid.”
“what?”
“The spirit of money. “Did you see me doing something strange at home earlier, and I almost burst out laughing and held it in?”
“I just saw it.”
“Actually, it was the process of separating the money and lightning spirit into two.”
“Really?”
“Then do you think I’m lying?”
“That’s not true…”
“Anyway, the separation was successfully completed at the end of the process. The spirit of lightning remained with me. The spirit of money has attached itself to you. So I can give acupuncture the power of lightning and you can see colored versions of people’s shadows. “Divide into those who are likely to approach you and scam you and those who are not.”
“…Is that so?”
“maybe. Thanks to you, I have never been a victim of financial fraud in my life. congratulations.”
“If it’s true… I’m indebted to you again.”
“Not thankful?”
“I don’t know about that. “Is this a good thing or not?”
The crown prince looked a little confused. Because I had experienced so much in such a short period of time, it seemed like I couldn’t feel it.
Likewise, the taxi driver behind the wheel also looked confused. They’re probably wondering if they should take us to a mental hospital instead of our original destination.
But Rakiel had an iron plate spread all over her face.
“iced coffee. “It’s nice to see Gangbyeonbuk-ro after a long time.”
It was an ordinary (?) Gangbyeonbuk-ro road that was still clogged with cars obediently cutting into the first-lane entrance and exit roads.
“Hey. “Do you see that bridge over there?”
“see. It really is a huge bridge. “What’s your name?”
“Yanghwa Bridge. I fell from there. “I was drinking and walking.”
“Is that really why you stole my body?”
“Write it. “It’s not robbery.”
“Shouldn’t you have walked more instead of drinking?”
“…I’m sorry about that.”
The taxi driver looked like he was almost liberated(?). Do they just think that they are carrying two strange guys who are crazy about concepts?
Anyway, the taxi arrived at its destination without any trouble.
“Is this this place?”
“uh.”
A place to receive lottery winnings.
It was the headquarters building of Nongx Bank.
“Let’s go in.”
I guess it’s because it’s my first time receiving lottery winnings. My heart was pounding incredibly hard. For a moment, I was even envious of the crown prince who followed me shamelessly without knowing why.
The process after that was hectic.
To be more precise, I was a little dazed and couldn’t believe it, and when I looked at it, I realized that receiving the winnings and all other processes were over.
“…Is this the end? really?”
“uh. “I think so.”
Even after coming out of the building, I didn’t really feel it. The only thing that has changed from before is the creation of a bank account that did not exist before.
“….”
Rakiel opened his bankbook blankly.
[4435888926 Won]
The numbers on the bankbook didn’t even feel real. On the other hand, I had a strange feeling. If I had held this bankbook in my hand before falling off the Yanghwa Bridge, many things would have been different.
But…
“It’s yours now.”
Before I could think of anything else, I handed the bankbook to the crown prince. I did not forget the words of encouragement.
“You can’t show it to anyone. “Don’t even tell me that something like this exists.”
Of course, I now know that it is useless interference. Because the crown prince is possessed by the spirit of money. They’re probably much better at spotting scammers than here. So, you can hand over your bank account with peace of mind.
“Anyway, let’s go home.”
Was it because I was nervous?
I was tired.
We didn’t say anything on the taxi ride home. I just stare at the scenery outside the window with blank eyes. Now I can only look up at the sky and clouds of this world that I can never return to or feel.
But it was in the meantime.
“oh my. Is this your first time seeing a young foreigner and a Korean take a taxi side by side? “When did you come to Korea?”
The taxi driver asked in this direction. If anything were to happen, there was a tendency to throw in an additional question (?) by asking, ‘Hello?’
“ah. “It’s pretty good.”
If you count from the time you were born, about 42 years?
To be honest, I wasn’t in the mood to have a friendly conversation with anyone right now. I just wanted to be alone and lost in my thoughts. It was annoying. However, as I listened to the taxi driver’s next words, I began to feel annoyed.
“is it so? haha. I’m sorry for asking so suddenly. “When I look there, I think of my son.”
“…Your son?”
why?
The question was soon resolved.
“iced coffee. My son is also out of town. I went to Canada to study there and even got a job. “So he speaks English very well.”
“Is that so?”
“I’m not sure because I’m an idiot, but it seems like that. Since the customers speak Korean very well, wouldn’t it feel similar? “Hehehe.”
“yes. I guess so. “I’m sure you’ll miss your son a lot.”
“It’s a lie if you don’t want to see it. Still, every time I think of my son, I look at this and this to calm my mind. haha.”
The driver smiled and raised his wrist.
I saw a gold wristwatch.
“This watch. “This is Lulex, fake Lulex.”
“A fake…?”
“Yes heh heh heh!”
The driver’s smile spread easily.
“It looks like your son has saved up some money since he got a job? They said they bought it with that, but it was something they brought back from Canada. And do you know what he said?”
“What did your son say?”
“Dad, I’m sorry for giving you a fake because I don’t have money yet. He said, “I will definitely buy it for you next time.” Hehehe!”
“Is that so?”
“yes. But do you know why it is a fake Lulex?”
“no. I do not know.”
“Well, ever since I was young, I had been thinking about buying this when I became successful. But in the end, I couldn’t buy it.”
“Ah…”
That’s why.
There was such a story.
The taxi driver’s voice became happy.
“Still, I’m thankful. Even if it’s a fake, he still tried to make his father’s wish come true, right? How wonderful is that heart. So to me, this fake is the only real Lulex in the world. Now even if they give me the real thing, I like it better. “Hehehe.”
“I guess so.”
The driver smiles happily. We understood that feeling and laughed together.
But that was then.
“Does that mean that a counterfeit is a fake? In that case, I don’t think the bracelet or something similar is a counterfeit.”
The crown prince, who had remained silent until now, suddenly opened his mouth.
“From my perspective, having been exposed to only the highest level of precious metals and crafts all my life, the item your son gave me as a gift is definitely not a fake.”
The crown prince’s gaze towards the knight’s watch was flashing sharply with an unexpected and brilliant color that I had never seen before.
