After 12 Hours

This is how you do it.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."

The ringtone rings once.

“Here's the chicken. ”

I hear a good voice. I went out the front door with the bills I had prepared.

“Six hundred cc's of pulse in half. ”

“22000 won, right? ”

“Yes, that's right. ”

I gave the bill to the courier.

“Enjoy. ”

After the courier left, I sat down in front of my computer with chicken and beer. I'm a little nervous. I opened the stopper of a bottle of beer before the chicken.

"Chi..."

It makes a cheerful sound with carbonation. I tilted the bottle and poured it into the mug. A golden beer.

"drag-and-drop."

The sound flows out. As soon as the bubble was about to overflow the glass, I put my mouth to it and drank the beer. One shot at a time.

“Khhh!”

Cool. I feel a little relaxed after a drink of beer. This time, I slowly poured a beer into the glass and looked at the monitor. Two windows are floating on the monitor. One is a spear that broadcasts matches from Real Madrid versus Deportivo, and the other is a spear that broadcasts matches from Barcelona versus Las Palmas. I opened a box of chicken with a taste again. And I thought,

‘If it works as expected... you will earn ₩ 10 million today. ’

10 million won. Imagine that. My salary is about KRW 30 million. Even though I earn more than my peers, it is not easy to raise 20 million won a year after paying taxes and living on rent, but if I earn 10 million won during the 90 minute soccer game, I am really struck by money.

"I can pay back the remaining student loans for 10 million won..."

No, but come to think of it, it might be better not to repay the debt. If we can continue to make this kind of money, we will make 100 million won, 100 billion won will become one billion won, and one billion won will become one billion won. It won't take long. Knowing the future, even 10 billion won is not that difficult. Then I will repay the remaining debt in a few months' interest. I did the math in my head.

$100 million a year, $200 a month, $100 a month. 1700? That's gotta be it. ’

It won't take a few months. If you hold 1 billion won, the remaining 10 million won of student loans will be repaid in one month's interest. I'm glad to imagine that. I was half drunk on beer, half drunk on that and started watching the game. Kick-off. Since it was the same La Lie game, both events were played simultaneously with only a minute difference. I watched the Real Madrid match first.

‘Well... the article clearly... said that Pepe was kicked out in 14 minutes after leading the game...’

As per the article, Real Madrid has taken a high share and is pressuring the opposing team. But this is natural. Any boy in his 20s who walks down the street would say that Real Madrid will take the lead in this game.

It is likely that Pepe's Red Card and Penalty Kick contributions are the origins. Without that kind of penalty, Real Madrid is not a losing team. Especially in Santiago Bernabeu, home. The game has not started for more than 10 minutes.

I took a look at Barcelona. Barcelona is also pressuring the opposing team hard. It was said that Tiquita had passed, but still had little share with the right passes and teamwork.

‘Real Madrid follows the prophecy... and you must defeat Barcelona.' Cockroach. ’

I prayed to myself holding onto the chicken leg. And a few minutes later, it became the time of destiny. The current time is 12 minutes. You have two minutes to leave. I watched the Real Madrid match with a little tension. There are also Barcelona games, but I think this one is more bothered right now.

I wonder... if the prophecy will come true again...

Every time I got nervous, I'd huff and puff, 12 minutes, 13 minutes, 14 minutes. Finally, it became 14 minutes of fate. I put the real Madrid screen to the full, putting aside the Barcelona game. Just as the passed-opponent of Deportivo begins to dribble towards the Real Madrid Faction.

‘Here I am.'

I squeezed a mug filled with beer. The fast-paced assailant sprints to Real Madrid's Defense Pepe. I think I'll do a rough foul right now. However, the attacker fired a shot before reaching Pepe.

Mid-range shot? This is gonna take us out of the scenario. ’

The flying goal flew to the goal precisely. For a moment, I hoped that the goal would not go through. If it goes in, my bet might be right, but the article I saw is a lie.

No! No! My 10 Billion! '

Luckily, the goalkeeper managed to get close enough to take it out. Connor Kick. I sighed.

"Done. Goal... No, Paul's alive! ’

I watched the game, shaking my legs. Athletes are positioned to take a corner kick, to prepare for it. The problem was that the game was running out of time. I watched the game go by nervously. Overall 14 minutes 48 seconds, 49 seconds, 50 seconds.

‘Damn it, get in the car. ’

I screamed as if I were the director of the game. After a long wait, Kicker finally kicks the corner. And after a while.

"Peek! Peek! Peek!"

At exactly 14: 58, the long whistle rang. Honestly, I don't know what happened. Only, the color of the card that the referee approached Pepe was clear. A red card. I shouted loud enough to make the studio ring.

“Done! Done! ”

Pepe complained to the referee at first, but when it didn't work, he wrapped his head around it and left. The home team crowd in Santiago Bernabeu also looks devastated. Deportivo players into the penalty kick line.

To be honest, I now have complete confidence in the accuracy of the article. When Roger Jackson died, I was so distracted that I didn't realize it, and I didn't really see it because of the headache because of the work at the last baseball game, but I couldn't believe it when I saw the knight live with my own eyes like this.

‘This goes in. Definitely.’

Just as my scream came true, the ball left Kicker's foot and stuck it in the lower left corner of the goal. I clenched my fist.

“Yes!”

Now this match is virtually the same or the same. How will it be 2: 0 in the latter, but I was no longer interested in it.

"Barcelona... Barcelona? ’

I have now put the match of Barcelona on the main screen. The game here was still 0: 0. It's only 15 minutes since the game started, so it's understandable. But fast.

I was wondering if...

I want you to ease my worries. I ate chicken, drank beer, and watched the game.

"Come on! Come on! Barcelona!"

I'm a little sorry for my country, but it costs 10 million won, so I will cheer for Barcelona more than when I cheered for the World Cup. And soon I was rewarded for my support. Twenty-three minutes in the first half. The mesh, which received Iniesta's pass, cuts the opposing team's bones with an elaborate shot.

“All right, Messi! I knew it! Thank you, Messi! ”

I put my hands together and thanked him. Since then, the mesh has only scored two more goals and hatched tricks. I am now his fanatic.

“Khh, the god of football. Messi, Messi. Thank you. Thank you. ”

*

I put out the fire and lay down in bed. I was full of chicken and full of beer. I saw the results of today's match on my smartphone one last time before going to sleep.

Final Score

Real Madrid v Deportivo 0: 2

Barcelona v. Las Palmas 6: 0

Now I have in my hand a receipt for a $10 million prototype.

"No, it's the end of my life as a slave born out of this earthenware. What are we going to do with this money, this information? Stocks? Real estate? Bitcoin?

Whatever I do, I will do. I can get all kinds of information, regardless of politics, economics, society and culture. Twelve hours ahead of everyone else.

‘With this, I can be rich. A very rich man!’

I am filled with joy when I think about it. I fell asleep imagining things like that while I was a little drunk.
