Convenience store sales tend to spike around the time office workers get off work.

With the rise in single-person households, more people are grabbing dinner at convenience stores. Convenience foods like lunch boxes and triangular gimbap [Korean rice balls] are selling like crazy.

CEO Lee Seo-bok was frantically greeting customers.

“That’ll be 12,400 won.”

Beep!

He swiped the card, bagged the items, and handed it over with the receipt.

“Thank you! Come again.”

It was almost a mechanical greeting, a rote movement. After running a convenience store for ten years, it was so ingrained in him that he could think about other things while doing it.

‘CEO Lee Yu-seong definitely said he’d send an android today.’

Clang clang!

A customer walks in.

Lee Seo-bok gasped as he saw the customer.

“Gasp!”

“Hello!”

A blonde beauty greets him.

Murmur, murmur!

The surroundings began to stir.

It was rush hour, so there were already many customers, which only made the blonde beauty stand out even more.

She was wearing a tight dress that showed off her figure, and the men’s eyes were glued to her.

“O-oh, welcome.”

The blonde beauty comes over to the counter.

“N-no way?”

“I’m Luna, the part-timer! I came from headquarters.”

“A part-timer sent from headquarters, is that right?”

“Yes!”

‘This is an android!’

Lee Seo-bok had to swallow a groan. The technology was truly amazing. CEO Lee Yu-seong’s technical skills were world-renowned, but he couldn’t help but admire the fact that he had created a machine that was indistinguishable from a human.

Anyone could see that she was human.

And not just any human, but someone so personable and beautiful that she could have been a celebrity. What if a woman like this came in as a part-timer?

Sales wouldn’t just increase by 10%; it would be even more.

Chief Lee Seul-gi’s bold statement that sales would increase because of the beautiful part-timer was no empty promise.

Lee Seo-bok felt like he had seen the light of salvation.

“Uh… you know how to use the POS [Point of Sale system], right?”

“Yes! I received training at the training center.”

“Try it.”

“I’m first!”

“No, I came first!”

The men lined up, competing with each other.

The line of her cleavage was subtly visible, and she had a smiling face and a bright personality.

An android was born that could fulfill the fantasies of Korean men.

‘CEO Lee Yu-seong is living the married life that Korean men envy. They envy him because his wife is a virtuous British beauty. The android is a bit different from her, but for a part-timer, it’s better to be bright and sociable.’

Lee Seo-bok was convinced that Lee Yu-seong would win this chicken game [a reckless game of strategy].

It would be strange if sales didn’t increase with such a beautiful woman working as a part-timer.

Part-timers were being assigned to CL convenience stores.

The part-time wages were deposited into headquarters, which took on more of the risk in this chicken game.

However, in reality, the store owners’ profits improved significantly.

The part-timers were all Western-style beauties.

They could have been set as East Asian beauties, but without even conducting market research, they knew that Koreans had fantasies about Western beauties.

There was a latent desire to date or marry a Western beauty if the opportunity arose.

First of all, the ‘size,’ as it’s vulgarly expressed, was different from that of East Asians.

They were dressed in tight-fitting clothes to fulfill those fantasies.

The fact that they are undead is only known to me and a few others. If the word gets out that ‘Westerners are actually zombies,’ the convenience store will obviously go bankrupt.

However, unless you check whether their hearts are beating, there is no way to tell them apart.

Someday, the fact that they are not humans but androids will be revealed. However, there is no legal responsibility for this.

Even if countries purchased them to decipher them, they wouldn’t be able to find any answers after several months.

Androids cannot be deciphered.

Since it isn’s science in the first place, the technology related to it can never be extracted.

“Mr. Lee?”

“Huh?”

It was a mid-level executive meeting.

I was lost in thought for a while, thinking about this and that.

“Speak.”

“As a result, sales have increased by more than 15%.”

“Oh, sales have increased by 15%?”

“At this rate, we expect to break through 20%.”

“It seems like the beautiful part-timers are working well?”

“Of course. You have accurately grasped the psychology of Korean men.”

“Let’s spread beauties all over the country and put them in Haejin lunch boxes as well.”

“That’s a good idea.”

“Hmm, but Mr. Lee,”

It was Head of Department Lee Tae-gon.

The intelligence department was already conducting a background check on Lee Tae-gon.

He was audaciously passing on the company’s secrets to GK Retail. It seemed that he was doing this after some kind of negotiation with GK Retail.

Lee Tae-gon was already an eyesore, but I was grateful that he was making his moves.

But now is not the time.

To carry out a purge, it must be done all at once.

There should be no room for escape, and the pus must be completely squeezed out by destroying it in one shot. If you only cut off the head, the pus will fill up again someday.

“Yes, Head of Department.”

“GK Retail has one question.”

“What question?”

“The origins of the beauty corps that were deployed this time are not certain……”

“What can they do? Since the Personal Information Protection Act has been strengthened, there is no way to confirm it.”

“Even so, we need to be careful because they can do background checks in various ways.”

“Well, let them do it.”

“Yes?”

“We haven’t committed any illegal acts, so we can just let them do what they want.”

“Ah, yes.”

Lee Tae-gon sits down, deflated.

He seemed to want to let me know that the current situation was not good, but he had nothing to say when I responded like this.

My close aides were looking at Head of Department Lee Tae-gon with unfavorable eyes.

Target for purge No. 1.

Lee Tae-gon will be purged within a few months.

And right now, the intelligence department is preparing a purge list.

GK Retail headquarters.

CEO Lee Jeong-man received the sales report today and burst into anger.

“Sales have decreased by 15%!?”

“That’s……”

“What’s the reason?”

“The biggest reason is that customers are flocking to CL.”

“Why?”

“CEO Lee Yu-seong is hiring beauties as part-timers.”

“Huh. Are you trying to seduce them with women? Does that make sense?”

“It’s true. If you see it for yourself, you’ll understand why I’m saying that.”

“They’re just pretty. A convenience store isn’t a cafe; do people really go out of their way to see the part-timer’s face? Does that make sense?”

“Yes. You’ll understand the moment you see their faces.”

CEO Lee Jeong-man had a dumbfounded expression.

What was the reason why convenience stores were created in the first place?

The price is a bit expensive, but it’s easy to buy this and that. If you want to go a little further, it’s better to go to a large supermarket.

It’s close and accessible. But people deliberately walk a little further to go to CL convenience stores?

Does this even make sense?

And the reason is because of women.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes?”

“Let’s go to a nearby convenience store.”

“Hmm. It seems that they are hiring about 20,000 people in total. Some convenience stores have beauties during the day, and some have them in the evening.”

In reality, about 10,000 people were spread out, and GK didn’t know that they were moving around and working, so they thought there were 20,000 people.

GK would never have imagined that they were undead.

“I’ll go and judge.”

“I’ll guide you.”

Secretary Oh Yu-chan and CEO Lee Jeong-man decided to set out.

CL convenience stores were easy to find.

To put it mildly, there was a convenience store every block. CL convenience store, Nine convenience store, and GK convenience store were competing in a three-way battle, and you could see convenience stores wherever you went.

It’s no wonder why Korea is called a convenience store republic.

When they arrived at the CL convenience store, they could see that it was crowded with customers, unlike other places.

In particular, the men were acting up and even lining up, and the women were taking pictures of the employee’s face with their cell phones.

How pretty are they to be doing that?

He disguised himself as a customer for a while and entered the convenience store.

Clang clang!

“Welcome!”

A cheerful voice is heard.

The voice is pleasant to listen to, and the pronunciation is accurate.

He looks at the part-timer.

“Heo!”

CEO Lee Jeong-man exclaimed.

A really great beauty was working at the store.

The cleavage was slightly visible, and the clothes revealed her figure. It wasn’t suggestive, and it was clothes that could be seen anywhere, but she was a very beautiful woman with a great figure, so she stood out.

A look that didn’t go beyond the norm and an appearance that rivaled celebrities.

Her skin was flawless and firm. She was in her early 20s. It was hard to understand why such a beauty was working part-time at a convenience store.

“Did you deliberately hire them for the chicken game?”

“It takes a lot of money to do that.”

“Isn’t he rich?”

It was well-known that CEO Lee Yu-seong sold androids to various countries at a high price. There were also rumors that the funds were so large that he was now pursuing a big deal.

“20,000 beauties of that level?”

“Yes.”

“Does that make sense?”

“……”

Oh Yu-chan couldn’t answer any of Lee Jeong-man’s questions.

Even when Oh Yu-chan thought about it, it was a policy that he couldn’t understand – pouring astronomical costs into hiring beauties.

Lee Jeong-man waited a long time to buy a pack of gum.

Behind Lee Jeong-man, a long line continued to grow.

“It’s 1,000 won!”

“Here you are.”

“Please wait a moment.”

Beep!

The calculation is also fast.

She doesn’t lose her smile from beginning to end.

Convenience stores were also a type of service, and customers were sometimes lost if the part-timer was unfriendly. But this was too much.

The response was incomparable to that of other companies’ convenience stores.

Of course, the part-timer here was only doing the basics, but how many places faithfully followed those basics?

Lee Jeong-man came out of the convenience store with a hearty laugh.

“CEO Lee Yu-seong is crazy.”

“At this rate, we may go bankrupt.”

“What we have more of than them is financial power. Since they dared to challenge us, we have no choice but to accept it.”

“What are you going to do……”

“Reduce the price of goods by 5% more.”
