From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show
chapter-377

June shouldn't even be surprised at this point. From the moment they explained the mechanics of the mission, he should have known he was going to get the unlucky card.

"Great!" the producer exclaimed. "Can you please show your missions to the camera?"

"Us first," Akira exclaimed, opening the paper and showing it to the camera.

"In the high school library…leave your signature on the bulletin board in the given timeframe," Zeth read.

"Sweet," Ren said. "That sounds pretty easy."

"You will be given 30 minutes to accomplish the mission," the producer explained. "You have to be back here within exactly 30 minutes for it to count as a success."

"I think we can do it," Jaeyong said. "We just have to find where the library is."

"Now, for the trio, can you please introduce your mission?" the producer asked.

Sehun opened the paper and showed it to the camera.

"Take a Polaroid photo and leave it in the bag of an avid fan in class 8-A! Make sure she doesn't find out about it until after the school assembly," he read.

The trio looked at the producer with curious gazes, wondering who this fan was.

"Kim Hyewon, an 8th grader in class A, is said to be the biggest fan of EVE in their class. Later, after Team Blue accomplishes their mission, her class will go to the gym for their P.E. class. Take this opportunity to smuggle the Polaroid into her bag!"

"Aww, that sounds sweet," Akira said. "I wish we would have gotten that."

"Yeah, I wonder what her reaction will be," Jisung excitedly said.

"We will include a clip of her reaction once this episode airs on Wednesday," the producer said.

"Lastly, can June please reveal the pink mission?" she asked.

June quietly sighed before opening the paper, his heart racing inside his chest.

'Please let it be an easy one,' he pleaded in his mind.

"In the joint cafeteria, buy a snack and come back to the music room," he slowly read.

"That's so easy!" Zeth exclaimed, causing June to smile in relief.

He could definitely do that!

"There's something written in the back," the producer added, causing June's smile to drop.

He turned the paper around and read the additional writing.

"However, you can't get caught by a high-schooler."

"But isn't it a joint cafeteria?" Ren asked, and the producer nodded.

"So, both the high schoolers and middle schoolers are going to be there?" June clarified.

"Yes," the producer said. "Some students buy their snacks even when it isn't the break time. However, by 9:30 AM, there's a general recess for all the students. I would suggest finishing the mission until then."

June glanced at his watch and saw it was already past 8 AM.

"We need to start then," he quickly urged.

"There's another condition," the producer said, causing June to lean back against his seat in defeat.

One of her assistants handed her a large piece of paper that contained a photo of some type of bread. It was white and had powdered sugar on top. There was a simple writing on the clear plastic that said 'cream bread.'

"You have to buy this specific snack before coming back. It's one of the most popular snacks with the students, so you have to buy one until it runs out."

"Now," she quickly said before June could even complain. "Why don't we get started with the first mission? Team blue, please wear your lapels and grab your personal cameras with you!"

The members of Team Blue excitedly prepared for their mission while June strategized how to do his.

It was at times like this when he wanted to have his teammates by his side.

His introverted self was already quaking from the thought of seeing young students!

If it was adults, then he'd honestly be fine.

However, kids were another breed. June didn't dare mess with them.

Fortunately, his teammates didn't take too long to finish their missions. Team Blue finished theirs with ten minutes to spare, while Team Yellow arrived exactly at 9:10 AM.

"That was so fun!" Jisung exclaimed. "We saw a 7th grader along the way, and she was so sweet. She even directed us to Hyewon's seat."

"The students here are really nice," Zeth added. "Even the high schoolers helped us locate the library. They didn't make a fuss or any like that!"

June listened to their conversation as he prepared for his mission. They equipped him with a walkie-talkie in case he ran into some trouble, and they gave them a small camera attached to a selfie stick so he could film himself without the help of a cameraman.

"I feel really bad for him sometimes," Akira said, observing his friend. "I wonder if he has a birthmark on his ass."

Ren weirdly looked at him. "Why would you even wonder that?"

"Because he has such bad luck!" Akira answered. "Don't think of anything weird. I'm not like Casper or anything."

Casper shook his head.

"I'm heading out," June said, trying to sound as brave as possible.

"Will you be alright?" Zeth asked.

"I hope so," June said before finally leaving the room and embarking on his mission.

He walked through the hallways, and fortunately, it seemed like most of the students still had their classes since he didn't run into anyone.

Moreover, he didn't struggle to find the cafeteria since it was a separate building located between the two buildings that separated the different grades.

"Alright, this is easy," he spoke to himself.

June entered the cafeteria and once again sighed in relief when he didn't find anyone there.

He quickly went to the snack section and looked for the cream bread he was supposed to buy.

He heard angels sing when he saw one on top of a shelf, so he quickly ran to where it was to grab it.

However, just as he held onto its packaging, another hand (a significantly smaller one) also reached out for the bread, causing him to freeze in dread.

June paused for a moment before turning to the side, meeting the eyes of his rival.

"This is my cream bread!"
