Chapter 64

"Turn off the lights!"

Unfortunately, by the time someone shouted this, it was already too late. ←

As the lights came on, Jin Hyun-tae inwardly exclaimed, "What the hell!"

In the corner of the room, a white, chubby man with black-rimmed glasses, wearing an ordinary orange T-shirt with a machine pattern, had completely taken off his large striped shorts, revealing a pale, plump buttocks. He was frantically covering himself with his hands, looking panic-stricken.

Next to him was a desktop computer and an old, broken sofa, and the floor was littered with white tissues.

Damn!

Jin Hyun-tae cursed inwardly, as the scene before him was too much to handle, and he could only express his shock and bewilderment through his curse.

To be honest, if Jin Hyun-tae couldn't figure out what the chubby man was doing in the dark, he would have wasted his thirty-plus years in his previous life.

"Vincent! How can you do this kind of thing alone in our club again!"

Unlike Jin Hyun-tae's 'shock' and 'astonishment,' Omar's face remained calm, as if he had seen this scene many times before. His tone was unfriendly, and he emphasized some key points at the end, scolding the chubby man.

In response to Omar's scolding, the chubby man only gave a silly, awkward smile, then pulled up his large striped shorts to cover his white buttocks.

Clearly, he was pretending to be clueless.

Well!

It seems I still lack experience and am a bit of a bumpkin.

At this moment, Jin Hyun-tae could only console himself and try to hypnotize himself to accept everything, including the peculiar high school students in this time and place.

The screen of the desktop computer next to the chubby man was playing a very intense 'action movie.' Jin Hyun-tae was no stranger to this type of film.

In his previous life, when he was a loser, he had also watched many of these.

Slap, slap, slap! (The sound of intense impact)

Accompanied by the strange sounds from the computer speakers, the heavy, rapid breathing, and the familiar lines, the chubby man awkwardly pulled up his shorts, then took a few tissues from the box next to him, wiped his hands, and slowly walked over.

"Let me introduce you. This is Vincent from our same grade H class. He is also a good friend of mine and a senior member of the fraternity and club."

After the chubby man walked over, Omar introduced him to Jin Hyun-tae with a calm expression.

H class?

Hmm, this class really fits you.

Jin Hyun-tae thought to himself.

Vincent extended his right hand to Jin Hyun-tae, clearly intending to shake hands.

However, Jin Hyun-tae couldn't bring himself to extend his hand, as the scene he had just witnessed... he genuinely couldn't do it.

Fortunately, Vincent also noticed this and awkwardly retracted his fat hand.

"Hello, I'm Vincent. You can understand, right? It's just a teenager's impulse, a way to release some excess hormones."

Vincent's face was thick-skinned, and he even found a 'reasonable' excuse, which made some sense.

Why don't you go out and get a girlfriend instead of doing this nonsense here? There are so many hot girls in the high school section of the academy; any one of them could help you with your hormones!

Jin Hyun-tae really wanted to shout this at Vincent.

Unfortunately, he could only think it in his mind and couldn't say it out loud.

"Ha ha! I understand! I understand! We are all young people, after all."

Jin Hyun-tae tried to recall his own loser days and forced himself to understand this chubby man.

Admittedly, this self-hypnosis was quite effective. Jin Hyun-tae began to feel less repulsed by the chubby man Vincent.

He even found this extremely perverted chubby man to be quite interesting.

After all, among the people he knew in his previous life, no one would have been able to maintain such a state after being caught in the act.

This showed that the chubby man was not an ordinary person.

"I'm William Jin. You can call me Jin or William."

Jin Hyun-tae briefly introduced himself.

"He is a transfer student in our class. He's a pretty good guy and gets along well with me, so I recommended him to join the fraternity. As a senior member of the fraternity and club, Vincent, you need to make a decision now."

Why does it have to be so serious? It's just a fraternity and club with only two members, yet it seems like a big deal.

Although Jin Hyun-tae was inwardly complaining, he had to pretend to be nervous to slightly cooperate with Omar and secretly observe the chubby man Vincent's reaction.

Jin Hyun-tae's feigned nervousness seemed to satisfy Vincent's small vanity, so the chubby man nodded.

"Alright, as a senior member of the fraternity, I think we can accept Brother William. After all, our fraternity needs to grow."

In fact, how could Vincent oppose Jin Hyun-tae joining the fraternity?

The fraternity and club he and Omar had only had two members, and they were worried about this.

Unfortunately, their fraternity and club were too notorious in the academy, and even other perverted guys were unwilling to join, to avoid being looked down upon by girls.

So, with a new member, Vincent was only happy and had no intention of rejecting Jin Hyun-tae.

If he really did that, Omar might immediately spread the word about what he was doing, making him a campus celebrity.

Don't doubt it; Omar would definitely do such a 'friendship-ending' thing.

"The woman in this video is a bit old, and the film is from an older era, probably the 1980s?"

To quickly build a rapport, Jin Hyun-tae walked to the computer, leaned down, and seriously gave his opinion.

"I like new films. The women have great figures, and their voices are very sexy..." As someone who had been through it, Jin Hyun-tae knew how to deal with teenagers like Vincent and quickly build a connection.

Talking about women!

Women!

Still women!

This method would definitely work.

Sure enough, hearing Jin Hyun-tae's words, Vincent immediately walked over, his face showing a 'you're one of us' expression, and nodded at Jin Hyun-tae: "You're right, it's an old film, even dubbed. I also want to watch new films, but unfortunately, my website account balance is insufficient, so..."

What a pitiful kid.

Seeing the chubby Vincent's gloomy face, Jin Hyun-tae felt sorry for him.

It's worth mentioning that in this timeline, due to the emphasis on copyright, even adult films could only be watched in their original version or by paying on a website.

Unlike Jin Hyun-tae's previous life in China, where he could easily download whatever he wanted, with free seeds and links provided by others.

In this regard, the loser group in the other timeline's China was quite happy.

After all, they didn't have to be like Vincent, who couldn't afford to watch the original and had to settle for old films to pass the time.

"Alright, Vincent, let's get to the main business. Don't let your mind be filled with yellow thoughts all day."

Omar walked to another corner, where an old desk was placed, and took out a magazine from his backpack, then sternly lectured Vincent.

Jin Hyun-tae was surprised for a moment because if he didn't know Omar's true character, he might have been completely deceived by his 'righteous' appearance.

"Hmph! What right do you have to lecture me? At least I don't go into the girls' bathroom to peek..."

Hearing this, Vincent immediately 'hmpf'ed and began to argue with Omar, but before he could finish, Omar ran over and covered his mouth, preventing him from continuing.

"Damn! Do you have to reveal my secrets? Besides, I did it for art, for art, understand?"

Vincent forcefully turned his head to expose his mouth: "Just say you were peeking at girls. What's this about art? You're a pervert."

"Forget about it. Let's all stop here!"

Omar wisely chose to end the argument, and Vincent closed his mouth.

"Ha ha! Come, Vincent, introduce Jin to the main activities of our club."

Jin Hyun-tae, who had been watching the two bicker with great interest, suddenly froze when he heard this.

He didn't understand what Omar meant.

Club activities?

This guy can organize club activities?

At this moment, Vincent came to Jin Hyun-tae's side and began to explain.

"Since you've joined our fraternity, there are some things you need to know."

After Vincent's explanation, Jin Hyun-tae finally understood what Omar and Vincent were up to.

The reason was this...

Due to their shared perverted interests, Vincent and Omar became good friends and formed the notorious "Jerk Fraternity" and "Human Body Research Club" in the academy.

However, both the fraternity and the club needed a venue for activities.

How did they get the venue?

They had to apply to the academy!

And it wasn't free.

They had to pay a monthly fee to the academy to rent the space.

For large fraternities and clubs with many members, each member could contribute a small amount to cover the cost.

But Omar and Vincent's fraternity and club only had two members, so they had to bear the cost themselves.

Fortunately, the venue they applied for was a small basement room of less than 20 square meters, so the monthly fee wasn't too high.

But it still cost money.

So, Omar and Vincent came up with a way to cover the cost and even make a little profit.

They drew popular TV and movie fan comics and sold them to the students in the academy.

Of course, they drew adult fan comics.

But there were many teenagers in the academy, in the throes of puberty and with high demand for such content.

Thus, they succeeded.

The only downside was their reputation.

Some might wonder, isn't the United States full of adult magazines? Why would people still be so enthusiastic about Omar and Vincent's fan comics?

This is a misconception.

In this parallel timeline, while adult magazines are widely available in the United States, you can't buy them if you're under 20, as it's illegal.

So, most teenagers in this parallel timeline would obtain low-quality adult magazines through various channels and 'unconventional' means and share them with their friends.

Those with such channels and means would become popular and seen as 'heroes' by their peers.

Now, Omar and Vincent filled this gap by offering hand-drawn comics. While they couldn't compare to adult magazines, they had their unique appeal, so they had a market.

However, they couldn't become popular 'heroes' because their 'character' was too poor.

"Come! Take a look at this magazine. I stole it from my older brother. I need to return it before he notices."

After Vincent and Jin Hyun-tae walked over, Omar handed them a book.

Jin Hyun-tae glanced at the cover and, as he had guessed, it was an adult magazine.

No wonder Omar had looked so mysterious earlier, saying he had a good book.

Vincent snatched the book and immediately flipped through it with glowing eyes, as if he wanted to jump into the book and have a passionate battle with the women inside.

"Jin told me he can draw, so his joining is a great thing for us."

Omar mentioned Jin Hyun-tae's drawing skills to Vincent.

Hearing this, Vincent looked up at Jin Hyun-tae.

"Oh! You can draw too? That's great. First, take a look at our style and see if you can adapt. If you can, I'll tell you about our themes and styles."

As he spoke, Vincent took out a few crumpled drawings from his shorts pocket and handed them to Jin Hyun-tae, then returned to his intense 'study' of Omar's magazine.
