At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to R&D Cleaners and noticed an ominous sign taped to the door: ‘Cleaned everything but your worries—come back tomorrow.’ The next morning, the driver returned only to find the shop empty and the sign gone. Curious, he checked his car trunk—and discovered that his uniform was spotless, his lunchbox neatly wrapped, and even his old college diploma had been pressed flat. Realizing what must have happened, he laughed aloud: ‘Well, looks like R&D Cleaners knows my laundry better than I do!’

From then on, whenever anyone saw him dropping off packages near R&D Cleaners, they’d whisper, ‘Watch out for those mysterious notes!’ The owner, a friendly old man named Mr. Kim, just laughed and said, ‘Good riddance to bad apples—now our customers only bring us clean shirts.’

Curious, he peeked inside and found an old gentleman folding pants meticulously into color-coded piles. ‘Morning,’ said the man without turning around. ‘You must be new here.’ The delivery driver stammered, ‘I—uh—I’m just delivering these.’ With a smile, the gentleman replied, ‘Welcome to R&D Cleaners, where even our uniforms are organized by mood!’

4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to R&D Cleaners and heard something strange—a soft humming sound coming from inside.
