Brother, Am I Cute? [EN]: Chapter 416

Hyung, am I cute?

Hyung, am I cute? Episode 416

The kids earned some Pirate Roulette swords by answering more questions.

Siha also got 3.

But with only 3 chances, it felt like a disadvantage, but Siha didn’t lose hope.

The teacher placed the Pirate Roulette in front of the children.

“Okay! Now, we need to make the pirate pop out. Who wants to go first?”

“Me!”

Seungjun, always eager to start, raised his hand.

Despite his confident expression, he only had one sword that he had slightly upgraded a while ago.

Unfortunately, Seungjun didn’t answer a single question correctly.

It was a 50 percent chance with the OX quiz [true or false quiz], but he was very unlucky.

It was more like the unlucky squad than the ‘Ggang Ggang’ squad [a playful term for a group of friends].

In fact, the questions were difficult if you didn’t know the answers. Of course, you could guess and get it right.

“Okay, Seungjun. Cheer up.”

“Yes! I think it’s here!”

He plunged the sword into the Pirate Roulette.

Click.

It didn’t pop out on the first try. If he had been lucky, he would have gotten all the OX quizzes right.

“Ah, that’s too bad.”

It wasn’t a pity at all.

Seungjun trudged back.

“Take one of Seungjun’s swords later. Got it?”

“Yes!”

“Okay! The odds are higher now. Everyone, give it a try.”

“!!!”

The children looked at the swords in their hands and sized each other up.

No one raised their hand.

Then Jongsu raised his hand.

“Me!”

“Okay, Jongsu.”

“Haha! I have 10.”

Having answered all the questions correctly except for the first one, Jongsu had 10 chances to insert his swords.

There were 16 holes in the Pirate Roulette.

With Seungjun removing one, there were 15 left.

Certainly, Jongsu had a good chance.

“Look closely. If you have this many, you can just stick them in. Got it?”

As expected of smart Jongsu, he got most of the quizzes right, so he had many swords.

The number of swords became his source of confidence.

“It’s important to have no thoughts.”

He must have heard it somewhere, as he stuck the sword in with a blank expression.

Click. Click. Click.

The swords quickly dwindled, and soon he only had one left in his hand.

“Huh?”

Jongsu was sweating profusely, or at least he looked like he was, as if he didn’t expect this.

Gulp.

With only one chance left, his eyes widened in panic.

The nonchalant ‘stick it in’ tactic had become a tactic that shattered his nonchalance.

No matter how well you solve the quizzes, the pirate won’t come out if you’re unlucky.

At that point, you’d have to say he’s just plain unlucky.

“Ugh… It’s important to have no thoughts.”

Just looking at Jongsu’s expression, he was full of agony.

If he didn’t succeed, he couldn’t evolve from a cotton swab [referring to the starting level of the game].

“Yap!”

The pirate popped out.

Jongsu also breathed a sigh of relief. He stroked his chest and muttered, “Thank goodness.”

Jaehwi approached Jongsu and congratulated him.

“Jongsu, congratulations! Having no thoughts really works!”

“Well, yeah. You have to do this without thinking.”

After succeeding, he became elated.

It was a completely different expression from when he was sweating.

He glanced at Siha.

“Hey, Lee Siha. You also have 3 in your hand, so just put them in without thinking. It’ll all work out. Do it like I taught you!”

“Okay. But Siha will do it with something else.”

“What are you going to do it with?”

“Hyung power!” [Older brother power]

Siha said, raising one arm.

Jongsu stared at him as if he was dumbfounded.

There’s no way something like that will work. What can he do with only 3?

Jongsu thought it would be better for Siha to watch what the other kids do before trying.

The teacher said.

“Okay. The pirate is back in. Who wants to try next?”

“Siha!”

“Huh? Siha? Siha only has 3, though?”

“It’s okay. It’s enough.”

“I have three swords!”

“Huh?”

“It’s nothing. Okay, Siha. Let’s do it.”

Siha shouted ‘Hyung power’ and stuck a sword in.

Pop!

The pirate went straight up.

The children’s eyes widened.

“Wow! Siha’s amazing!”

“Siha is great!”

The twins clapped and cheered.

Jongsu stared at Siha with wide eyes as if it couldn’t be true.

How did it work in one go? I used 10 and barely made it? Huh? What is this? Can this be possible?

Agony filled his head again.

“Hyung power!”

No. Is there really a Hyung power? Huh?

For a moment, such thoughts flashed through Jongsu’s mind.

But unfortunately, Siha was lucky even if he couldn’t solve the quizzes.

No matter how smart you are, it’s not easy to beat a lucky guy.

“I’ll go next.”

Next, Jaehwi readily stepped up.

Jaehwi also had 8, so the pirate popped out. It popped up close to his face, so he was startled and fell over.

He got up from his seat, glanced at Yeonju, and scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

That’s how the other kids successfully grew their swords.

The kids who were cotton swabs evolved into Pirate Roulette swords, and the kids who were originally Pirate Roulette swords evolved into toothbrushes.

“???”

The children who saw the toy toothbrush had faces that seemed to say, ‘Is this right?’

***

The teacher prepared the next game.

This time, they had played enough, so it was time for snacks, but they weren’t going to be given easily.

“Everyone! What do you need with a toothbrush?”

“Toothpaste!”

“Yes! That’s right. So today, I’ve prepared toothpaste in various flavors!”

“!!!”

“There’s ketchup flavor, mustard flavor, mayonnaise, strawberry jam, and so on.”

In fact, they prepared things that could be squeezed out like toothpaste, not actual toothpaste.

Today’s snack is hot dogs!

But what they’ll squeeze out to eat will be determined in this random game.

“You’ll squeeze these winning toothpastes and eat them on the hot dogs. It’s okay. There’s nothing that tastes bad.”

The teacher smiled.

They don’t taste bad, but there are things that don’t go well together.

“Okay. Then this game is ‘Hidden Picture Search’!”

“!!!”

“I printed it out big. You see the rhinoceros diligently cleaning, right?”

“Yes!”

“There are also toothbrushes hidden here. I’ll let the person who finds the most choose the toothpaste they want.”

“!!!”

The children widened their eyes and searched for what they needed to find.

Paper airplane, ice cream, pencil, umbrella, toothbrush, brush, sailboat, ping pong paddle, etc.

The pictures to find were next to the whole picture, so they just had to find the matching ones.

“For reference, you can only eat hot dogs if you find them all.”

“!!!”

The children started searching even harder.

The teacher watched the scene and slowly started preparing the hot dogs.

I think they’ll find them all in 10 minutes.

There’s still time, so I think I can heat them up one by one slowly.

“Siha found it all!”

Siha looked at the picture as a whole.

He also looked at the pictures to find.

It started to fit together in his head. Siha doesn’t miss pictures. Rather, he has good observation skills. He has excellent abilities in this area rather than quizzes.

“Found it all!”

“???”

The children who found a few looked at Siha with questioning eyes.

Jongsu said.

“Hey, Lee Siha. Don’t lie!”

“No. It’s real.”

“Ha! Then try it.”

Jongsu puts a red pen in Siha’s hand.

Siha fearlessly circles the pictures he found.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

The number of finds gradually increases.

The hand extends without delay and the circles increase.

The children looked at Siha with surprised faces.

They never knew Siha had this ability.

“Done!”

The number of finds is 17. The children found only 3.

He found all 20 hidden pictures.

The time it took for Siha to look at the picture and circle it was only 2 minutes.

Beep!

It was also the time when one round of hot dogs put in the air fryer was over.

“Huh?”

The teacher was embarrassed.

This shouldn’t be happening? I still have more hot dogs to turn over?

“Teacher Dahui, proceed. I’ll take care of the rest. I need to take out the frying pan too.”

“Ah, yes!”

I had to buy some time somehow.

The teacher stood in front of the children.

“Ahem. Siha wins?”

“Yes!”

“Oh. Um. So Siha is first, and Jongsu, Yeonju, and Hana are tied for second. Right?”

“Yes!”

“Umm.”

They had to get at least one right to grow their swords, but Siha found everything too quickly, so the other kids had to suck their thumbs [idiom for being left out].

It’s no fun to end this quickly.

But if I take out the prepared hidden picture search again, Siha will find it quickly.

“Then let’s choose the toothpaste first, and those who didn’t find it will find it one more time. Got it?”

“Yes!”

“Then there will be a toothpaste selection.”

Siha looked around at the toothpaste(?).

He’s in first place, so he can choose anything.

“Woong.”

There are 8 types.

Ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, strawberry jam, apple jam, mango jam, corn butter, sweet potato mousse.

Siha pondered for a long time between ketchup and strawberry jam.

Because they are both red.

The taste doesn’t matter. Only red.

But both were good choices.

“Siha chooses ketchup toothpaste!”

“Oh!”

Siha chose the original hot dog topping.

Jongsu confidently chose mayonnaise, which made the teacher doubt his eyes. Huh? Mayonnaise?

Yeonju chose apple jam, and Hana chose strawberry jam.

The remaining children began to choose in the order of winning the next hidden picture search.

Eunwoo surprisingly chose mustard.

“Puhaha. Must-tard puhaha. Must-must. Jaehwi too! Puhaha!”

In the teacher’s opinion, he must have chosen it because he wanted to say that.

Well, it’s not a bad choice if you actually like it.

“I’m sweet potato mousse!”

Seungjun won sweet potato mousse, Jaehwi won corn butter, and Yundong won mango jam.

I wonder if it’s okay. Hot dog and mango jam.

“Squeeze only as much as you want to eat. You can squeeze more if you want to eat more. Got it?”

There’s no need to eat something that doesn’t go well together.

Still, they had to eat one bite, so the teacher said that.

Everyone had hot dogs in front of them.

They sprinkle and eat with their own toothpaste(?).

Siha looked around and saw Hana.

“Hana.”

“Huh?”

“Siha wants double red!”

“Huh?”

“Sprinkle strawberry jam.”

“!!!”

The teacher initially stopped him.

No! Strawberry jam and ketchup! It’s not a bad combination, but.

“Siha. Can you eat it? It might taste bad.”

“It’s okay. It’s red.”

“What is red anyway! Why is everything okay because of it!”

Anyway, Siha couldn’t be stopped.

After sprinkling everything, he eats the hot dog deliciously.

“Delicious!”

It must have been surprisingly delicious.

The other children watched Siha’s actions and realized that they could sprinkle other children’s things.

That’s right. They could just borrow it!

Even the teacher didn’t tell them not to do that.

Because exchanging and sharing was also a kind of education.

However, she stopped them from making strange combinations once.

The spirit of challenge is good, but sometimes there are paths you don’t have to take.

A path where you can know whether it’s poop or soybean paste without eating it [Korean idiom for knowing something without having to experience it].

“Then I’ll make a rainbow! Sprinkle seven here!”

“Seungjun. That’s not it. Seven is not allowed.”

“Tch!”

“What tch. You shouldn’t play with food.”

“It’s rainbow flavor!”

Rainbow flavor usually tastes bad!

“It’ll be delicious. Because it’s a rainbow.”

“Have you ever eaten a rainbow, teacher?”

“No. I haven’t eaten it. But I know.”

“Woong?”

“Sometimes when the teacher drinks too much, she spits out a rainbow… Ouch!”

Teacher Yoo Dahui was hit in the back by the headmaster for saying such things.

Jongsu, who chose mayonnaise, looked at Siha.

“Hey, Lee Siha.”

“Why?”

“Give me ketchup too.”

“No.”

“Why!”

“No mayonnaise.”

“It’s delicious to sprinkle mayonnaise and ketchup together? Ha! You don’t know how to eat!”

Jongsu said proudly.

“I’ll sprinkle it and let you have a bite.”

“Siha has it.”

“Then I’ll lend you mayonnaise, so sprinkle it and try it.”

“No.”

“Then lend me some ketchup!”

“No!”

The teacher thought.

What is it? Is mayonnaise on a hot dog too much for Siha?

“Hey! That’s too much! Do you hate mayonnaise?”

“No.”

“???”

“You can’t mix red and white. It’s not red.”

“Huh?”

The teacher finally understood.

If you mix ketchup and mayonnaise, it turns pink.

Anyway, Siha was serious about red.
