Main Text: Chapter Forty-Nine: Green Mountains and Seven Seas
Ignoring Nagasaki Motoyo's sudden silence, he took out his phone and sent a message to Toyokawa Shoko, asking her to remove Nagasaki Motoyo from his blacklist.
As soon as the message was sent, Toyokawa Shoko called.
Li Xiao moved quietly, bypassing the three women sleeping around him, and left the room like the wind before answering the phone.
"Hello? Xiangzi, what do you want to call?"
"...When did you meet Su Shi?"
"We knew each other before I knew you."
"So, she sent you to help me?"
"Yes."
Toyokawa Shoko closed her eyes and spoke with some distress:
"Although I had a vague feeling after our last meeting, that child's emotions are indeed a bit too heavy."
"The idea of someone sacrificing their entire life for me leaves me completely bewildered."
Li Xiao didn't really care if Toyokawa Shoko found out, after all, in the original story, they could have explained things in just a few words, but they dragged it out for so long.
In this matter, he felt that the two people would most likely not be straightforward and would instead try to keep it from each other.
Of course, it wouldn't have been a problem if it had been made clear beforehand; it's just that his idea of seeing Nagasaki Soseki was shattered.
He's interested in something else now.
"You said Su Shi came to see you last time?"
She didn't tell me about this.
"Yes, they suddenly came to my school to find me, which startled me."
Looking back now, I realize I said some hurtful things back then, and she must have been a little sad.
"So, did she kneel down before you?"
Li Xiao was a little excited. Had this kind of ghost story actually happened?
"Huh? How did you know that?"
Toyokawa Shoko was a little surprised.
It really happened! Is it some kind of corrective force in the world? It's such a shame I couldn't witness such an interesting scene live.
"Could you tell me where you last met? Also, are there any security cameras around there?"
"The last time we met was in front of a convenience store near the school. There should be security cameras there, right?"
Toyokawa Shoko thought with some uncertainty, after all, there is very little surveillance in public places in Japan, and she was not sure if there was any there.
A convenience store? Li Xiao thought, "This must be the variable I brought, causing the place where they meet to change, right?"
"Tell me the exact location of that convenience store."
"This...that shop is..."
Shoko Toyokawa hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up.
Having obtained the address, Li Xiao set off quickly.
Soon, he arrived at the place that Toyokawa Shoko had mentioned.
He went straight into the convenience store and found the clerk inside.
"Hello, excuse me."
"Hello, how can I help you?"
The shop assistant was a girl who looked familiar to Li Xiao, but she couldn't tell which anime character she was from.
But Li Xiao has other things to do right now, so let's get to know each other another time.
"Do you have security cameras at your entrance? My friend's phone was stolen nearby a few days ago, and I'm hoping to see if there are any clues here."
“We do have CCTV cameras at the entrance of our store, but we don’t show them to just anyone. If you have a police search warrant, we can investigate for you.”
The implication is that they disagree.
"I see... Okay then, wait a moment."
After saying that, he went out and made a phone call to inform the Shinomiya family.
Not long after, a car screeched to a halt in front of the convenience store.
A middle-aged man got out of the car, looked around, and when he spotted Li Xiao's location, his eyes lit up, and he ran towards him.
"Hello, are you Mr. Li Xiao?"
"Yes you are?"
"I own this convenience store. Your friend bought it for you. When would you like to take over the ownership?"
The middle-aged man rubbed his hands together, looking impatient.
That person paid ten times the market price and even paid half of the amount in advance!
"Do as you please. I just want to see the security camera footage at the entrance of your store."
"Of course! No problem, this way please."
The middle-aged man quickly invited Li Xiao into the convenience store.
"Aoyama-san, please quickly retrieve the surveillance footage for this guest."
"Good, good."
Aoyama Nanami looked at the store manager who had suddenly arrived and the boy who had come to ask questions earlier, and stammered as she spoke.
'Aoyama? You mean Aoyama Nanami?'
Looking at the busy girl, he compared her appearance to his own when he watched anime and found that they were very similar.
Interesting. We have Aoyama Nanami, but what about Chikama Mashiro?
Misaki Kamiigusa and her sister are also a lovely pair of sisters.
Isn't that a great move by San-Ying Ren?
Feeling Li Xiao scrutinizing him, Aoyama Nanami operated the computer with extreme unease.
Why is he staring at me like that? Is it because I refused to let him check the security footage, and he's going to get the manager to fire me?
No way! This is my fifth job, and it was so hard to find one!
"Okay, okay."
According to the time Li Xiao mentioned, Aoyama Nanami retrieved the surveillance footage.
Fortunately, the store's surveillance footage is cleaned once a month, and less than a month has passed since Toyokawa Shoko mentioned the timeframe.
Watching the interaction between Toyokawa Shoko and Nagasaki Motoyo in the video, and then Nagasaki Motoyo's astonishing kneeling and hugging Toyokawa Shoko's leg, one can see the dramatic scene.
The entire process was clearly recorded.
"Hmm, very good. Could you cut out this part and send it to me?"
"That...is fine."
After receiving this embarrassing piece of Nagasaki Motoyo's history, Li Xiao smiled with satisfaction.
Su-se, I wonder what your expression will be when this scene is played in front of all the members of mygo?
Just thinking about that magnificent view made him feel so excited he almost stood up!
Although he doesn't know why, seeing Nagasaki Motoyo makes him want to laugh. And he especially wants to see her make a fool of herself.
"Then thank you, Miss Aoyama."
Upon hearing this, Aoyama Nanami quickly waved her hand: "No, no need to thank me, I was just doing what the manager asked me to do."
"Oh, speaking of which, I've already bought this store. The former store manager just told me that you seem to be having some financial difficulties?"
The middle-aged man standing to the side raised an eyebrow. When did he say that?
However, money talks, and he didn't expose Li Xiao.
"this......"
Aoyama Nanami looked somewhat embarrassed when this issue was brought up.
"Please don't misunderstand, actually I wanted to introduce you to a good job as a way of repaying you."
"No need for that, I haven't been able to help you much anyway."
Aoyama Nanami is an independent girl and doesn't want to accept such kindness.
"The salary is very high~ Let me think, it's about 1.5 yen a day, and you only have to work a few hours, plus meals and accommodation are included."
Does such a job really exist? Even the store manager standing nearby was a little tempted by this.
But he was still self-aware enough to understand that this was just a rich young master trying to pick up girls.
"this......"
Aoyama Nanami was clearly taken aback by this treatment, and her expression showed some hesitation.
Main text: Chapter Fifty: I only have a primary school education
This treatment wasn't something Li Xiao made up; it was based on Hayasaka Ai's salary.
Hayasaka Ai's monthly salary is 500,000 yen, which is about 17,000 yen per day.
Although Aoyama Nanami is definitely not as capable as Hayasaka Ai, it doesn't matter if he spends some money to keep her by his side.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this kind of job..."
