Chapter 1
"짐 싸서 꺼져!"
술집 문 앞에서, 양동은 밀려 나왔다.
쾅!
대문이 꽉 닫혔다.
"퉤, 내가 니 밑에서 일하고 싶지도 않아."
양동은 술집 대문을 향해 침을 뱉고는 돌아서서 걸어갔다.
그는 또 해고당했다. 이곳으로 돌아온 이후 99번째 직업이었다.
6월 중순의 쑤베이 지방은 날씨가 찜통 같았다. 술집 구석에 숨어 있는 노숙자조차 그늘에서 나오려 하지 않았다.
특히 정오에는 커다란 태양이 양동의 마음을 심란하게 달구고 있었다.
시원한 맥주 한 병을 사서 더위를 식히고 싶어 사방을 둘러봤지만, 어디에도 음료 가게가 보이지 않았다.
대신 수십 미터 떨어진 벽 모퉁이에 캔 하나가 비스듬히 놓여 있었다. 그는 희미하게 그 위에 "시원함이 느껴지고, 기분이 날아오른다"라는 광고가 인쇄된 것을 볼 수 있었고, 양동의 마음속 화기가 더욱 왕성해졌다.
"젠장, 너까지 날 괴롭히냐!"
욕설을 중얼거리며, 양동은 손쉽게 돌멩이 하나를 발로 찼다.
퍽
팟!
둔탁한 소리 후에, 돌멩이가 빠르게 날아가 팟 하는 소리와 함께 무언가에 맞았다.
"헤, 10점 만점!"
양동은 돌멩이에 맞아 큰 구멍이 생긴 캔을 보며 히죽 웃었다.
바로 그때, 그의 주머니 속 휴대폰이 갑자기 울리기 시작했다.
"누구야, 지금 짜증나는데."
양동은 휴대폰을 꺼내 짜증스럽게 통화 버튼을 눌렀다.
"내 머리는 무슨. 너 도대체 어떻게 된 거야? 어제 소개해준 일자리 오늘 벌써 짤렸다고? 게다가 점장이 날 불러다 한바탕 욕설을 퍼부었어!"
"누가 짤렸다고."
양동은 잠시 멈췄다가: "내가 그를 짤랐지. 됐어, 더 말하지 마. 네가 소개해준 이 일자리는 안 맞아."
전화 너머의 사람이 눈을 굴렸다: "그게 다 똑같은 거 아냐? 됐어, 이전에 너한테 찾아준 일자리도 다 그랬으니, 이제 익숙해졌어."
양동은 말을 잇지 않았다. 이전의 경험으로 인해 직장 생활에 적응하기 어려웠다.
양동이 침묵하자, 전화 너머로 쓴웃음 소리가 들려왔다: "양동아, 내가 여기 일자리 하나 더 있는데, 한 번 면접에 성공하면 화이트칼라 계층으로 올라갈 수 있어. 그때는 좋은 것 먹고 마시고, 운이 좋으면 좋은 여자도 꼬실 수 있을 거야. 어때, 할래?"
양동은 흥흥 두 번 콧소리를 내며 생각했다. '어디 그런 좋은 일이 있겠어': "말해봐, 무슨 일인데."
"구체적으로는 나도 잘 설명 못해."
전화 저편의 목소리가 잠시 멈췄다: "가보면 알게 될 거야. 미녀 사장님이 널 기다리고 있다고."
미녀 사장님?
양동은 1초 망설였다. 미녀가 있는데 안 볼 이유가 있나.
"좋아, 갈게. 장소 말해봐."
……
딸깍.
사무실 문이 열리고 한 남자가 걸어 나왔다.
그의 어두운 표정만 봐도 면접에 실패했다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
양동은 의자에서 일어나 그에게 다가가 붙잡고 물었다: "형님, 면접은 어떤 내용이에요? 왜 다들 합격을 못하는 거죠?"
"에휴, 말해봤자 뭐하겠어. 조금 있으면 네가 알게 될 거야."
그 남자는 풀이 죽은 얼굴로 고개를 저었다.
양동은 미간을 찌푸렸다: 이 면접이 정말 그렇게 어려운 건가?
그의 앞에서 스무 명이나 당당하게 들어갔다가 풀이 죽어 나왔다.
양동이 더 물으려는데, 방 안에서 누군가 소리쳤다: "21번."
21번은 바로 양동의 면접 번호표였다.
그는 셔츠 칼라를 정리하고 당당하게 문을 열고 들어갔다.
방 안은 텅 비어 있었고, 책상 하나와 의자 두 개 외에는 아무것도 없었다.
책상 맞은편 의자에 한 여자가 앉아 있었다. 아니, 소녀라고 해야 할까.
소녀는 대략 20세 정도로, 보라색 끈 원피스를 입고 오른손으로 턱을 괴고 있었다. 아름다운 두 눈이 양동을 위아래로 살펴보고 있었다.
이게 미녀 사장님?
양동은 잠시 멍했다: 이 채용 장면이 좀 이상하게 수상한데.
미녀 사장님의 복장이 너무 캐주얼한 것은 차치하고, 외모도 너무 젊어 보였다.
다행히 양동은 이 기간 동안 면접 경험만큼은 많이 쌓았다.
이 이상한 상황에 직면해서도 양동은 곧바로 정신을 차렸고, 소녀에게 가볍게 허리를 숙였다: "안녕하세요, 저는 21번입니다."
소녀는 말하지 않고, 물기 어린 눈으로 그를 몇 바퀴 훑어본 후에야 앵두 같은 입술을 열었다: "앉으세요."
"감사합니다."
양동은 의자에 앉아 소녀의 심사하는 눈길을 받으며 약간 불편한 표정을 지었다.
이건 직원을 뽑는 건가, 아니면 애인을 찾는 건가?
마침내 소녀는 부드럽게 웃으며 몸을 앞으로 기울이고 얼굴을 양동에게 가까이 했다.
탄력 있는 부드러움이 책상 위에 놓이고, 그녀의 몸에 눌려 놀라운 섹시함을 드러냈다.
양동의 가슴이 쿵쿵 뛰기 시작했다: 이 미녀 사장님은 꽃미남을 키우려는 건가? 내가 풍류 넘치는 모습을 보고 자발적으로 몸을 바치려고?
소녀는 키득키득 웃었다: "잘생긴 오빠, 자기소개 좀 해볼래요?"
"아, 네."
양동은 고개를 끄덕이며 시선을 "책상"에서 떼었다: "제 이름은 양동이고, 26살이에요. 오기 전에 잠시 군인 생활을 했었죠."
"군인? 좋네요."
소녀는 가볍게 고개를 끄덕이며 의자에서 일어나 몸을 더 앞으로 기울였다. 거의 양동의 얼굴에 닿을 듯했다.
양동은 입을 다물고 의심스러운 눈빛으로 그녀를 바라봤다.
그녀의 몸은 점점 더 가까워졌고, 왼손은 책상 위에 놓아 몸을 지탱했으며, 오른손은 양동에게 뻗어 그의 가슴에 얹었다.
"전 군인이 제일 좋아요. 역시 근육이 있네요... 계속 말씀하세요, 저는 신경 쓰지 마세요."
소녀는 킥킥 웃으며 손가락을 양동의 가슴 위로 천천히 움직였다. 그녀의 어깨에서 끈 원피스의 끈이 미끄러져 내려가 반쯤 드러난 어깨와 섹시하고 하얀 쇄골이 드러났다.
게다가 양동의 시야 구석에서 검은색 레이스 브래지어의 일부분이 보였다.
하지만 소녀의 가벼운 행동은 양동을 혼란스럽게 만들기는커녕 오히려 그를 깨어나게 했다.
소녀가 몸을 기울이자 진한 향수와 호르몬 냄새가 섞인 향기가 그의 콧구멍으로 들어왔기 때문이다.
향수 냄새가 좀 익숙했다.
그가 세 들어 사는 '도시 속 마을' 옆 작은 슈퍼에서 바로 이런 저질 향수를 팔았다: 백화산 브랜드, 20위안짜리 한 병.
며칠 전 가게에서 할인할 때 그의 뚱뚱한 집주인이 한 봉지를 통째로 샀고, 매일 뿌려대서 방 안이 연기처럼 자욱했다.
이런 생각이 들자, 양동은 여전히 웃고 있었지만 속으로는 확신이 들었다: 미녀 사장님이 그의 풍류에 반할 수는 있어도, 절대로 20위안짜리 싸구려 향수를 쓰지는 않을 것이다!
흥, 이건 함정이구나.
세상 참 불안하네, 요즘은 사기꾼들도 면접을 가장하는구만.
양동이 웃기만 하고 말을 하지 않자, 소녀는 몸을 뒤로 물리고 일어나서 양동 옆으로 돌아갔다.
오른손으로 그의 목을 감싸고, 가는 허리를 흔들며 그의 무릎 위에 앉았다.
소녀의 몸의 탄력을 느끼자 양동의 아래쪽 작은 녀석이 즉시 반응했다.
물론, 반응이 없다면 차라리 남자를 그만두는 게 나을 정도였다.
"왜 말을 안 해요? 계속 말해봐요."
소녀는 엉덩이 아래의 열기를 느끼며 키득 웃더니, 일부러 엉덩이를 몇 번 흔들었다: "이게 뭐예요, 사람 간지럽게..."
