I want to root my device because ADB shell has root permissions, but I do not have working PC! So, how I can do that?

How do you root? That depends on the device and the version of Android.
How do you get a shell with root? Use an app like Terminal Emulator for Android (and Hacker's Keyboard if you want a full PC keyboard on the phone's screen). Use it the same as adb - su gets you root.

That gives root access in shell you run via ADB but not in somewhere else!

But to modify default.prop you need to run su, which you can't install without being temporarily rooted, in which case you wouldn't have to modify default.prop.
You can modify the file, then repack the system and flash it, or, easier, add su to /system/bin, repack and flash.

Here's my output of default.prop (I not modified it, because there is no * symbol after file name):
