“You know why you can’t assemble enough money?” he said looking at his tin. “Not because you don’t know how to perform, but because you’re ignorant of the style of drawing money out of the people’s pockets. How can you get the tips if you don’t know the tricks? I beheld a busker once that had no talent, but he enchanted people with his words. He often said to the passers-by, ‘Please give generously. I could be out robbing houses…yours, for example.’ Even a cootie-catcher girl busks more than you.”

“Ah, that poor boy was unlucky. Perhaps his trainer or doctor had told him to take some spicy food for fast blood circulation. That’s why he had come here for Korean Tofu Soup – which is very spicy. Because of jogging, his heart was already beating fast, which means fast blood circulation. To make the matter worse, the hot and spicy soup, combined with witnessing some hot action, meant that his blood wasn’t running, but boiling. He was clinging to the wall trembling. If they hadn’t killed him, he would’ve died on the spot anyway.”
