The dirty secrets of the male streamers...
No, their actual crimes were laid bare, one by one.
It wasn't just exposed to the people in this room—it was being broadcast on every single stream.
‘What a collection of spectacular bastards. Was this industry always this filthy?’
The sexual favors were the least of it.
Drugs, a hit-and-run followed by disposing of the body.
The room was packed with guys who had committed appalling acts.
The fact that scumbags like that could hide behind a respectable facade and then demand an apology from me was absolutely infuriating.
‘It was like a goddamn criminal den...’
Anyway.
Thanks to Drift's exposure, the inside of the bar descended into total chaos.
"Fuck! Off! Turn it off!"
One guy yelled, hysterical.
Another man swung a chair, smashing the ordering tablet.
"Everyone, the footage you just saw was all fabricated. Of course, the evidence was forged too. You believe me, right? Yes?"
Another man was sweating bullets,
trying to explain himself to his viewers.
"No, it's not true... it's not..."
Another had turned off his stream and was muttering to himself, denying reality.
Their reactions were all different,
but the action they ultimately chose was exactly the same.
Get the hell out of there first.
In other words, they all chose to run away.
‘What was the point of running from here...’
They might dodge the immediate situation,
but sooner or later, the criminals who broke the law would end up arrested anyway.
Most of them had probably already been reported.
Just looking at my own stream chat, there were several viewers who had already reported those criminal bastards.
【Reformed Guburi】─I reported all those fuckers. Why are they all criminals? Is that Crime City or something?
【Hottie Licker】─Guburi, your civic duty is on point.
【Reformed Guburi】─You didn't?
【Hottie Licker】─I only reported the one who dumped the body. The rest are too much hassle. Someone else will do it. *lick*
【Min-ji】─I reported them too!
【Yoho】─I've pulled a few strings as well, to make sure they can't get out of this even if they have connections.
【BigGirl】─I'm off to catch the one called Puzim or whatever. Goodbye, Gye Se-hun.
【Plum Tree】─There were quite a few who weren't even worth reporting.
【Dick Lover】─Yeah. But it's bad enough that they'll never be able to stream again.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─Finding out they turn off their stream and then mock their donors while banging some chick is seriously shocking.
【Qkrnfl892】─Bet there are a lot of guys doing that.
【Reformed Guburi】─But seriously, how the hell did Drift dig up all that info?
【Hottie Licker】─They say she's a hacker. *lick*
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. I am telling you to praise me.
Things got a bit bigger and more annoying, but I had absolutely no intention of scolding Drift.
Because publicizing criminal acts was not wrong.
At least by my standards.
And thanks to her, I cleared my name... and we were able to settle the situation peacefully.
So, I decided to express my gratitude to Drift.
"Drift, thank you."
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. I am telling you to praise me even more.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─For real tho, wtf even is that thing's identity?
【Reformed Guburi】─I fucking told you, she's a hacker. Stop asking.
【Hottie Licker】─Guburi, your double standard is insane. And hey, Reverse-Rape, it's 'what the fuck,' not 'wtf.' *lick*
【Min-ji】─But isn't Drift a lawbreaker too? You dug up people's private info. You even hack without hesitation.
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. I am saying that I cannot be confined within the boundaries of laws made by humans.
【Qkrnfl892】─Pretending she's not human. lol
【Dick Lover】─If you don't get caught, it's not a crime.
【Bubblegum Collector】─Wakyapya! I do not follow the rules set by humans!
【Gyejipsa】─Wakyapya! Drift was a yokai? Come visit my house!
I pulled my gaze away from the chat window.
Then I slowly looked around the bar.
All the men who had been causing a scene were gone.
The place was a wreck, like a ruin.
"What in the world is going on..."
Cheerful Namsu couldn't process the situation and looked completely out of it.
It was a reaction I understood perfectly.
I would've reacted exactly the same way in the past.
But now, well...
Yokai, the Otherworld Restaurant, the mysterious Hell Hotel.
And so on.
Maybe because I had been exposed to so many unreal things, none of this fazed me anymore.
Unless a meteor suddenly came crashing down to Earth, I'd gotten to a point where I could just accept most things with a shrug.
‘Anyway, I should explain the situation first.’
I was about to calm down Cheerful Namsu and explain what had just happened.
"He did drugs? Pumin?"
"I thought he'd been acting strange lately."
"For Ru-ru-ru, the poster boy for innocence, to be involved in sexual favors..."
"I still can't believe it."
"Thank god I didn't reveal I'm a woman..."
"Is it true that all those videos and files are real?"
"Given that they all panicked and ran, wouldn't you say it's true...?"
"More importantly, who the hell is the person who leaked this?"
"Exactly. It's shocking enough that they had that information, but they even hacked every device?"
"And what's the deal with the women who ran out with the men? Did they have something to hide?"
"Hey, you know... the thing about StarRainDew doing a hit-and-run, I didn't see that wrong, did I?"
"The one where they also dumped the body? I saw it too."
"That's insane. And they just shamelessly kept streaming after doing something like that?"
Voices from the women who were still here.
The female streamers were murmuring amongst themselves.
It looked like they'd been in a daze too, and were only just now snapping out of it.
‘Seeing this, Drift really did kick up a hell of a storm...’
I decided to start by helping with the cleanup.

After hearing an explanation of what had happened,
Cheerful Namsu asked a question in a much calmer manner.
"So, you're saying... that hacker is a viewer of your stream?"
"Yeah. That's what she says. Don't tell anyone else if you can help it. I'm only telling you."
"...Got it. But are you sure you're okay? What if someone sues you or something?"
"She said there's zero chance of that happening."
"Really...?"
Cheerful Namsu nodded his head slightly.
Then he looked at my camera and bowed his head.
"Thank you, Pyoro-ro."
“It’s not Pyoro-ro, it’s Drift... something. But why are you thanking her, Hyeon-su?”
"She helped Se-hun, so of course I should thank her too. We're practically family."
"...Mm. Not family, but we are acquaintances."
"Ah! Oh, and can you show me the chat window?"
"Why the chat window all of a sudden?"
"Just because. I'm curious how Drift-something responded."
Would it be okay to show him this?
Thinking that, I glanced over the chat window for a moment.
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. I am saying I am neither Pyoro-ro nor Drift-something, but Drift AI.
【Reformed Guburi】─That's the same fucking thing. More importantly, tell us Cheerful Namsu's secret too! Leaving us all curious and then clamming up. -_-
【Hottie Licker】─For real, just tell us secretly. *lick*
【Qkrnfl892】─I'll keep it a secret.
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─Secret is 'bimil' in Korean.
【Min-ji】─Looks like someone's been studying up.
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. Cheerful Namsu. Real name Nam Hyeon-su.
【Drift AI】─I am saying that in the early days of his channel, he went around various communities, anonymously spamming posts like「The new Neotuber Cheerful Namsu is super handsome! His streams are fun, you have to watch!」.
【Reformed Guburi】─Lololol that's so damn pathetic.
【Drift AI】─I am speaking. I am saying that Reformed Guburi has also done the exact same thing.
【Reformed Guburi】─stfu
【Hottie Licker】─Oh. That's nothing special. *lick*
【Plum Tree】─Seems like that kind of thing is fine to expose.
【Yoho】─Contrary to his looks, he's actually a pretty clean guy.
【Min-ji】─Wow. So Hyeon-su had those days too, huh.
【Bubblegum Collector】─Wakyapya! Can't you tell us Se-hun's secret too?
【Gyejipsa】─No!
【Drift AI】─Hun's World. Real name Gye Se-hun.
【Drift AI】─I am saying that he is actually in a secret relationship with me.
【Yoho】─?
【Min-ji】─Don't start shit, seriously.
【Plum Tree】─Stupid fuck.
【Dick Lover】─Pathological liar?
【Qkrnfl892】─You wanna go?
【Bubblegum Collector】─Se-hun is my boyfriend, what kind of bullshit are you spouting?
【Gyejipsa】─Wakyapya?
【Hottie Licker】─Idiot. Lololol *lick*!
【Reformed Guburi】─Seriously want to tear you a new one. lol
【Reverse-Rape Maniac】─Haaahnnng!
As I thought, I really shouldn't show him this.
My viewers were far too embarrassing to reveal to the outside world.
"Uhm. Drift must be shy, she isn't typing in chat."
"Is that so? She must be very bashful."
"Something like that... Anyway, let's start helping them clean up the place."
Ignoring the chat window,
I decided to help tidy up the bar now.
I was partly to blame for this, so I should help.
I wasn't trying to act like a good guy.
Just out of basic conscience, I wanted to properly finish cleaning up before I left.
You could say it happened because of me, in a way.
So, Cheerful Namsu and I started helping the staff clear away the damaged things.
***
A basement office in an old building in Seoul.
Gathered here now were
Thicc Ass Park Jin-ha,
and women with tattoos covering their entire bodies.
"Park Jin-ha! What are you going to do about your image now? How are you going to keep streaming?!"
One woman kicked a desk and spoke in an irritable tone.
But Park Jin-ha wasn't scared in the slightest.
Instead, she snapped back in anger.
"Ah, honestly! It's a strip stream anyway, who gives a shit about image?!"
"Don't you know that image matters for strip streams these days too?"
"Ha! What image is there for a stream watched by sex-crazed losers! I'll handle my own streams, so just deal with that bastard first!"
"...That bastard?"
"I'm talking about Gye Se-hun, Gye Se-hun! You know how much shit I'm in because of him! So hurry up, kidnap him, pump him full of drugs, and turn him into a male prosti—..."
Just as Park Jin-ha continued his rant,
Bang!
The office door shattered.
Cutting through the swirling cloud of dust, a tall woman slowly revealed herself.
A scar running down over her left eye.
A prosthetic eye reflecting the light of the ceiling lamp.
A woman wearing a grey suit made of high-quality fabric.
It was BigGirl, Seong So-ri.
"Kidnap, then drugs, and a male prostitute, was it...?"
Seong So-ri swept her gaze across the office,
counting the number of thugs before she continued.
"Mm. None of you have faces that look like you'd be capable of a normal conversation."
"Wh-Who the hell are you!"
"What the fuck. Busting in here out of nowhere and talking shit about our faces. Are you a crazy bitch?"
"Do third-rate thugs these days not know who I am? Well, whatever. Anyway, are you the bitches who've been threatening ordinary civilian men and forcing them into adult broadcasting?"
"How the hell do you know that? What are you, a cop, lady?"
"Doesn't look like she's a cop... More importantly, what were the idiots outside doing instead of stopping her?"
"Get your tools ready, first. I don't know who the hell this bitch is, but a guest is a guest, so we should give her a proper welcome."
"...So the text Drift sent was true, then."
Seong So-ri pulled gloves out of her pocket and put them on.
And then,
Team Leader Park followed her into the office and shouted.
"Director! I've brought plenty of oil drums!"
"...I didn't tell you to prepare those."
"Won't they be necessary this time?"
"..."
Seong So-ri let out a short sigh,
then stared expressionlessly at the thugs in front of her and spoke.
"For now, let's start with a beating, girls."
