Chapter 5

"Taking a little risk for money is a fair sacrifice."

100,000 yen might be a small sum for an ordinary family, but for a household that counts every penny, it is a considerable income.

Although Dolbika Park carries risks, how could luck be that bad? For the sake of money, Ren Amamiya did not believe his part-time job at Dolbika Park this time would encounter any problems.

Having made his decision, he continued scrolling down on his phone to check information about the part-time job.

"Wearing a specific costume to distribute balloons to children and taking photos with guests."

"A mascot costume? It's probably big and heavy. The weather is fine now, but wearing that kind of mascot suit will surely be exhausting; I'll have to go to bed early today."

Workers must always preserve their energy for work; Ren Amamiya was well aware of this.

There was nothing else to research today, so he could just go to sleep.

Placing his phone by the bedside, Ren Amamiya lay in bed and immediately fell asleep.

Ren Amamiya had cultivated the good habit of going to bed early every day.

No later than 10 o'clock; this time is perfect for sleeping.

Early to bed and early to rise makes one healthy; that is one aspect. The other aspect is this apartment.

You must know that the best rental houses in Beika City are not those that look glamorous on the outside.

Rental houses that combine a good appearance, excellent decoration, good lighting, and low prices have mostly experienced very serious murders.

In Beika City, murder houses are the cheapest; as long as one's life is hardy enough, one can take advantage of the bargain.

The house Ren Amamiya rented was 120 yen per square meter, had top-tier decoration, and was on a high floor of a luxury apartment, yet the monthly rent was only 10,000 yen, with utilities even completely free.

But precisely because the rent was cheap enough, it indicated that the murders occurring in this house were quite severe.

Hmm, simply put, there are three Spirit Rings inside the house.

Originally, Ren Amamiya did not dare to rent it, but he couldn't resist the price being so incredibly cheap, plus the utilities were completely free.

It was for this incredibly cheap rent that Ren Amamiya rented it for two years.

Last year was the first year; this year is the second year.

Fortunately, he had gone to bed early and risen early every day for the past year, focusing on not being active at the same time as the Spirit Rings.

By actively avoiding the Spirit Rings' active times, Ren Amamiya was able to live so peacefully over the past year.

The next day.

The second morning was a fine day with clear weather.

The first thing upon waking up in the morning was to say hello to the Spirit Rings in the house.

"Good morning; it seems we have safely passed another day."

After a simple preparation, Ren Amamiya left the house with his bag.

Dolbika Park is considered one of the larger amusement parks in Beika City, containing many zones and numerous places to explore.

Because the number of daily visitors is very large, it is also a very good place for part-time work.

Hmm, many people would see it that way, but Ren Amamiya still maintained a certain vigilance regarding this.

After all, large-scale buildings like this always tend to attract Shinigami.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Dolbika Park, he registered according to the rules and was then allowed into the park.

After all, many part-time workers at Dolbika Park had already made the corresponding reports in advance; otherwise, wouldn't they have to contact each one by phone the next day?

After entering the park, Ren Amamiya went immediately to the workplace to contact the boss.

"Nice to meet you, Ren."

The female store manager looked very amiable; she was around thirty years old, and perhaps due to overwork, signs of aging had already become somewhat prominent on her face.

This was an ice cream shop of a certain scale.

By the way, such shops make quite a lot of money in amusement parks.

In response, Ren Amamiya bowed slightly.

"Hello."

Seeing that Ren Amamiya had no other words, the female store manager actually felt a sense of relief.

"Just as I heard, you are not good with words. Fortunately, what I need is someone who is not good with words; people who talk too much are not very good at the job of playing a mascot."

Ren Amamiya understood this statement well; for this job, his inability to speak well was actually a good thing.

"I won't say much else; I will just explain your working hours and job content."

The female store manager went straight to the point and introduced the job content to Ren Amamiya.

"The morning shift starts at 9 and ends at 12, followed by lunch break time; during this time you can eat lunch and rest. The afternoon shift starts at 1:30 and ends at 6:30."

"Your job is to distribute some flyers, give balloons to children, and take photos with guests. Do you understand?"

The job content and working hours were explained very clearly; Ren Amamiya nodded slightly.

"Understood."

The female store manager checked the time; there was still some time before the official work started.

"The working hours haven't started yet; you can go to the locker room first to put your things down and try on the mascot costume."

In response, Ren Amamiya did not object and followed the guidance to the locker room at the back.

Inside the locker room hung several large mascot costumes of different sizes, presumably to accommodate people of different heights.

Ren Amamiya chose a mascot costume he personally liked: a mouse mascot wearing a hat, with very large eyes and a puffed-up mouth, looking very cute; it should belong to the type children like.

"I hope no too many accidents happen during my part-time job today."
