【Everyday Hack】The "AML Confirmation" Dungeon of Local Shops. From Infiltration to Freezing at the Biohazard Specification Change

A peaceful afternoon rejoicing over a "Miyoshino Bento." An error log of an utterly merciless thumb-coating executed on the register's physical device (cash).

Let's go earn some cash today! 🎶

With that light knock, I drove my car to the usual site.
A construction job at a house located up the hill. The work progressed smoothly, and the long-awaited lunch chime rang along with a pleasant feeling of fatigue.

Time for an energy refill.
I invaded a local shop with a peaceful atmosphere called "SPOR" to buy a bento.

The moment I looked over the shelves, my tension (brain CPU) jumped all at once.
"Oh, they have Miyoshino Bento!"

Hokkaido's ultimate soul food. Selecting this, I lined up at the register in high spirits.

In the register line (waiting queue), a man was checking out. Behind him, a young woman. And finally, me, holding my Miyoshino Bento.
A perfectly normal, peaceful, and quiet lunchtime.

The man in front finished his payment, and it was the woman's turn.
Her purpose was to pay her mobile phone bill. She took out a 10,000-yen bill from her wallet and handed it over, saying, "Please."

The one who received it was an elderly man running the shop.
The owner of this shop, perhaps. He had a relaxed posture, looking like handling regulars was a piece of cake.
With practiced hands, he tapped the register and pulled out the change bills from the register slot.

Up to this point, it was a 100% expected system behavior.
He took out the coins from the register, placed them on the tray, and began counting the bills (7,000 yen). At that exact next moment...

I truly doubted the image of my own retinal camera (overhead camera).

――The elderly man deliberately wet his thumb with a "slurp" of his tongue and began flipping through the bills: one, two, three.

"...?!"

Even from my position lining up behind her, it was crystal clear.
The exact decisive moment when the edge of the bills was being coated "slurpy and brown" with his saliva.
It was no longer a careful count. It was a merciless bio-hazard (specification change) inflicted upon the cash.

Finishing the count, the owner handed that brown energy mass to the woman with a highly satisfied, relaxed smile.

The woman who received it... didn't know what had just happened and her entire device was completely frozen (turned to stone).

Is she going to put that in her wallet?
After that, only a deep, mysterious riddle of terror remained.

The End.

By the way, on my note, I write about an even more severe and much funnier "Serious Survival (Existence Log)".

If you want to get caught in the swamp of laughter, please check out my other articles as well.

Now, the reboot is complete.

Did you warm up the bento? 🎶 Where is the miso soup and hot water?
