I guess the rumor got out that we were driving around in RC cars. People passing by were even saying hello to us.

“Oh my, it’s Namin. Where are you going today?”

“Oh, do you know my name? Let’s go to our burger place!”

“Wow. You’re going far today. Do you know where it is?”

“Yes, Jihyun searched the map and found it for me.”

“That’s great. Have a nice trip.”

There were people who didn’t just say hello, but also knew my name first and pretended to know me.

I thought maybe they were the people who watched my broadcast, but I thought it would be a bit embarrassing to ask that in real life, so I just didn’t say anything.

“Hehehe, being a celebrity feels pretty good.”

“He may not be a celebrity… … But Namin has become quite famous. If little people like us drove around in toy cars, it would probably become a topic of conversation in the neighborhood, right?”

“Hehe, right?”

There’s nothing wrong with being famous, as long as it doesn’t make you infamous. So I decided to enjoy this popularity to the fullest.

It’s a good thing people are kind. There are people who have bad intentions and come to flip over cars, but there are no such people.

Oh, of course, not everyone is good. There were bad scientists who took advantage of Ji-hyun, and there were people who tried to kidnap me to exploit my labor.

But I understand that much. Oh, of course, I’m not saying that it’s okay to do bad things to us. I’m saying that not everyone can be good.

It would be nice if there were only good people in the world. But I know that that wouldn’t be the case because I lived for 20 years in my previous life.

So isn’t it true that good people are more amazing and that meeting good people is lucky?

Thanks to that, whenever I was greeted by people, I felt happy and smiled. The Saekmoose, who enjoyed people’s attention, was dancing excitedly, and the RC cars were even shaking.

Thanks to that, the walk to the hamburger place didn’t feel that long. If I had just held down the forward button on the remote control, it would have been a bit boring. I had to keep saying hello.

Oh, so maybe those people were the ones who stopped me from driving while drowsy?

“Wow, guys. I feel like I’m really lucky.”

“Suddenly? Why?”

“If I had just been fiddling with the remote control, I might have dozed off, but people greeted me so I didn’t fall asleep. How lucky.”

“Oh, um. I see. Namin is a lucky person.”

“Hehe, it feels good to think that way. Right, Hamshik? Hamshik says so too.”

Of course, Hamshik didn’t answer. But since Hamshik would squeak if he really thought it wasn’t right, I decided to take it as him roughly agreeing.

If you have any complaints, please refute them in our language, Hamshik. I sent a telepathic message in case Hamshik, who couldn’t speak, felt wronged, but as expected, Hamshik didn’t refute.

If you couldn’t speak, you could have read my mind and replied telepathically. Since that’s not the case, I’ll just say that I truly agree.

Jihyun agreed, and Hamshik agreed. Since the majority had already agreed that I was lucky, there was no need to ask Saekmusae for his opinion.

The hamburger restaurant we arrived at. There were stairs, but there was also a slope that went up by turning to the side.

They say they’re making ramps and such so that people in wheelchairs can get on and off. Considering that there are places where this isn’t the case, it’s all thanks to my luck that I ended up in a place with a path like this.

“Oh my, look at that. There’s a parrot riding in a toy car?”

“Isn’t there a doll inside? No, is it a person? Wow, so cute.”

“Wow, so that’s how small races use RC cars. RC car technology has really improved these days.”

When we arrived at a hamburger restaurant with a few people, people who didn’t know us were whispering. It seemed like the people who had recognized us and greeted us earlier were local residents.

Well, don’t we have any subscribers here? I should try harder and become more famous. Then, Min-i-cheo will sell well!

When we rounded the ramp and arrived at the door of the burger place, we were stopped at the first gate.

The large glass door itself was an obstacle for us. It was an automatic door, and our car was not recognized.

“Guys, this is a big problem. The automatic door won’t open.”

“I’ll open it. Oh, do you hear this sound? Don’t ignore the sound of your heart knocking. Open the door, ohhh!”

The swan suddenly started to serenade me when I said something. People passing by heard it, snickered, and thrust their cell phones at us.

It looks like they’re filming us. It’s a little embarrassing, but it’s okay because it’s all for our publicity.

It was difficult because the problem itself wasn’t solved. I had to hurry in and order a hamburger when the door opened.

“Hmm, how about standing aside for a moment and then walking in when other people pass by?”

Thanks to Jihyun’s relaxed speech, I was able to calm down.

There are probably a few people inside, and we’re not the only ones going into the hamburger restaurant.

I was planning on buying a hamburger and heading back before I got to Narin’s house, but wasting a little time here wouldn’t make much of a difference.

It would only be 5 or 10 minutes late at most. At that point, Narin could just get off work and take a shower first.

“Jihyun is smart as expected! Saekmusaeya, the automatic door doesn’t have a voice recognition function, so you can stop singing.”

“This is not a song, this is a spell. A spell to open doors! Look, the doors are opening! My Open Sesame was useful!”

So I stopped the song. Coincidentally, as soon as the song stopped singing, someone went out and the door opened.

Okay, let’s go to the counter and get a hamburger… …! The moment I thought that, the second gate blocked our way.

A sign that says, “Please use the kiosk to order, pay, and use gift certificates.”

In my previous life, I never used a kiosk. When I was young, I just ate what my parents bought for me, and when I got older, I got sick and never went to a store that used such a thing.

This is because all stores that sell healthy foods have people personally taking orders and calculating the bill.

Of course, that doesn’t mean I didn’t know what a kiosk was. The signboard right there showed what a kiosk looked like, and there was a machine right next to it that displayed menus on a monitor.

You can order with that, pay, and when the menu comes out at the counter, you just have to take it. It’s really efficient.

I swallowed once and looked back at Jihyun and Hamshik.

“We’ve got a problem, guys. The kiosk is too high!”

Don’t be scared because you’ve never done it before. Everyone has a first time, and since there aren’t that many people, you can gradually learn how to use it.

The problem was that the monitor was too high up, and there was no place to put your feet.

It seems like I have to touch the screen to operate it, but is it okay for a colored bird to fly here?

Even right now, the counter staff are talking about how it might be awkward for animals to come in because of the stray dogs and hamsters that come in by car, but it’s okay because they’re well-behaved.

The moment the color-changing bird starts to flutter, we might be kicked out. After all, the flapping of its wings could send dust all the way to the cooking facilities beyond the counter.

“Hmm, I think it would be too much of a nuisance to go up on the color changer. But the kiosk is too steep for a hamster to go up… … .”

It was a difficult problem that even Ji-Hyeon’s wisdom couldn’t solve. But it was also a bit awkward to ask people for help.

Everyone was eating, and the staff at the counter seemed busy just preparing food and serving menus.

Ah, I guess I should just stick a long stick into the RC car and carry it around. If I just stick it in and carry it around, it won’t be balanced, so I’d like something foldable.

It’s good that you have an idea, but it takes time to get it when you order it. It’s not an idea that will help us use the kiosk right now.

Then something occurred to me. Wouldn’t Hamshik’s dropkick be enough to reach there?

“Guys, I think you can ask Hamshik to shoot the cannon. First, Jihyun, do you know how to use the kiosk?”

“I know, but… … .”

“Then tell me what to press. Then Hamshik kicks me, and I fly over to the monitor and touch what to press.”

“… … Isn’t it dangerous?”

“It’s not dangerous, it’s not dangerous. I can fall from the second floor and it won’t hurt at all.”

Hamshik’s dropkick doesn’t hurt at all. It just flies far.

And if I touch the kiosk and fall to the floor, it doesn’t hurt. My body is light, so the impact is less.

If you add that up, Hamshik can press the kiosk if he has the right cannon aiming ability. And we have the right people for that.

“Colorful bird, you aim well with the hamster. Then I will fly to the kiosk.”

“Aiming? Are you shooting Namin with a hamster?”

“That’s right. The color bird is smart, so it can aim well, right?”

“I’m smart! I can aim well!”

Okay, the plan is perfect. Now I just need Jihyun to tell me where to press.

I took Hamshik up to the roof of the RC car. Maybe because there was something to eat, Hamshik obediently and cooperatively laid down with his back against the roof of the RC car.

Then, I laid down so that the middle of my back was on Hamshik’s hind legs. Saekmusae gradually turned Hamshik to adjust the angle.

Jihyun had a worried expression on her face, but since things had turned out this way, she probably wanted to trust me for now. She told me her goal calmly.

“Um… …. Then, first, click on the gift coupon button. Do you see it at the bottom right?”

“Okay, Saekmoose! Aim for the gifticon! Fire!”

“Ham-sik fires a cannon!”

Boom, I was kicked by Hamshik and flew into the sky. I was shot towards the kiosk screen and was able to touch the gifticon button exactly.

While I was falling to the ground and returning to our Naminiz Hamjeokdan, Jihyun also laid down on Hamsik’s hind legs and took a position.

“I can’t let Nami suffer alone. I’ll help too. Aim at the package and shoot.”

“Ham-sik fires a cannon!”

“Not Balsa, but Balsa… … , Ughhh!”

Jihyun also flew through the air and pressed the button she had set as her target. Jihyun is pretty good too!

“Jihyun, where should I press next?”

“ Next, you have to scan the barcode… … .”

Ji-Hyeon, who had fallen to the floor, looked at the kiosk as if speechless.

What this means is that you have to scan the barcode. In the end, it means that you have to display the gift card on your phone and have it recognized.

It was immediately obvious how to do this. There was a device at the bottom of the screen that recognized the barcode, and a long red light was shining from it.

The problem was that if you were to ride the hamster cannon while holding your phone, it might fly, but your phone might get damaged when you land.

Even though I didn’t study much math, I know it’s crazy to risk breaking a cell phone worth over a hundred thousand won just to buy a hamburger.

Will this plan to use gift cards fail? Jihyun and I both look at the kiosk with regret. Saekmusae and Hamshik are just blankly staring at us for a moment.

“Uh, sir. May I help you?”

An employee wearing a burger joint uniform extended a helping hand to us.

“Wow, thank you! Mission successful, guys!”

In the end, I was able to pay thanks to the help of the staff. But, isn’t it true that after receiving a true greeting, you receive a great blessing?

Because we worked so hard, the staff was moved and came to help.

The magpie also nodded its head and shouted in excitement.

“Mission is fucking hilarious!”

“Jo, be quiet! In front of everyone… … !”

Jihyun hurriedly hugged the bird’s beak and closed it, but the bird had already said everything.

A few people eating hamburgers here and there in the store could be heard spitting out something.
