"This isn't the first time this has happened," said Yu Mikami.

"!"

Xiangzi lowered his head and moved his little shoulders. "Well, this is the third time."

The third time?

Then the first and second times her father collapsed on the roadside might be the reason why she quit Crychic. After all, although she had no money, she had paid for a year's rehearsal room fees, so it was still possible for her to come to rehearsals.

but.

If my father becomes like this, it will be impossible for him to continue to play music with peace of mind.

When people give up pleasure, they must be feeling the pressure of family finances and have to become reliable adults.

"Do you need me to accompany you?" asked Mikami-kun.

"No, no need. For things like this... I can go by myself." Xiangzi shook his head and said.

In other words, she was also well aware that this was not a glorious thing.

Although she had been completely exposed to her classmate Mikami next door, she still had a little self-esteem in her heart.

"But you can't bring your father back this way."

So, Mikami Yu took out five 5 yen bills from his wallet and handed them to Xiangzi.

The total is 10.

As for money, it is better to be prepared.

"Thank you." Xiangzi held the 10 banknotes tightly in his palm. Although he didn't say anything else, he could feel her inner turmoil.

"After everything is settled, come to my house." said Mikami-kun.

"I understand." Xiangzi knew that it was impossible to borrow money verbally, so he had to write an IOU.

She still knew about this.

While waiting for Xiangzi to leave, Mikami Yu began to think.

Chapter 51 There is a big golden retriever following Xiangzi!

What is known is that Xiangzi's family belongs to the Toyokawa family, but because the company was defrauded of 168 billion four months ago, they had to take responsibility, so Xiangzi's father was kicked out of the house, and Xiangzi also left the Toyokawa family in order to take care of his distraught father.

I hope my father can cheer up.

For this reason, Xiangzi could accept a hard life and even go out to work to support himself.

but.

Why was Xiangzi's father always found drunk on the roadside by kind-hearted people and the police were called?

You know, the number of people who fall to the ground every year is counted in the tens of thousands.

Because life in Tokyo is extremely stressful, you can often see office workers lying on the ground while waiting for the bus due to lack of sleep, or immortals driven crazy by the high pressure.

So, it is actually quite normal to see someone lying on the roadside in Tokyo. It happens so often that no one will pay special attention to it.

But Xiangzi's father fell on the roadside three times, and was discovered by passers-by three times, who then called the police and took him away.

Does this mean that Xiangzi’s father is so lucky?

Or.

In fact, someone was secretly watching him and noticed him lying drunk on the side of the road, so they called the police.

If it is the latter, then Xiangzi's family may be more complicated than imagined.

Although Xiangzi and his friends left their original family, their original family did not completely ignore them.

But if you are still paying attention, why not help but just watch?

Or just wait for them to fend for themselves?

Do not understand.

Think so.

"咚咚-"

Yu Mikami suddenly noticed footsteps coming from not far away.

But he didn't come towards this side, but turned around and left directly from nearby.

It seems like someone has been staring at this place just now.

The other person left very quickly. All that could be captured by the naked eye was her departing figure. She was a girl with shoulder-length blond straight hair. She was wearing a white T-shirt, brown trousers, and a black hat on her head.

He was carrying a backpack.

She wore a pair of black sunglasses on her nose, making it difficult to see her appearance.

Because he didn't know him at all, Mikami Yu just watched, but he soon discovered that the other person was standing in a very good position, from which he could see the scene on his side, and if he hadn't come to the second floor, he wouldn't be able to see the other person from his side.

But why should I look at his house?

Are you paying attention to the situation on his side?

But his parents took all the debts on themselves, so even if he was in debt, it would be useless for the creditors to find him, so he should not be the focus of attention, and there was no such thing as arranging such a young girl to come out and collect debts.

So, the person the girl was looking at just now might not be him, but Toyokawa Shoko who was crying here just now?

Is he an acquaintance of Xiangzi?

But the other party had no intention of coming forward to greet him, which was a bit strange because Xiangzi clearly needed help just now.

"..."

Can't figure it out.

So, Mikami Yu, who was confused, took out his notebook again.

Terrible.

When he was about to connect the power supply, he found that the charger was not in the computer bag, so he had to use his mobile phone.

Then I clicked on the avatar of Nagasaki Suyo on the chat software, which looked like the one selling perfume live.

Mikami Yu: Soyo, do you have my charger?

Su Shi: Didn’t you take it away?

Su Shi: I found it. I’ll bring it to you tomorrow.

Yu Mikami: Just bring it to RiNG, no need to come to Haneda.

Sushi: ...It's not like I like going to Yugaoka.

Mikami Yuu: Please also inform everyone to gather at RiNG's place at 5pm tomorrow evening for rehearsal. I've prepared a new song, and if everyone can work together well, we'll start singing the new song.

Su Shi: I see. But didn't Li Xi create a group? You can just talk in the group.

Mikami Yuu: This is to create a connection between you and the new team members. To strengthen the bond.

Su Shi: ...I have absolutely no idea what you are thinking.

Yu Mikami: How much do you know about Xiangzi's family situation?

Su Shi: Why are you asking this question again? We were all students of Yue Zhisen before, but I don’t know the details, but Xiangzi and Xiaomu are childhood sweethearts, so their family background cannot be too bad.

Yeah, that's all I know.

It seems that Su Shi is useless. She is basically an outdated version of the intelligence she gathers.

Mikami Yuu: So, do you know a girl with blonde hair, wearing a white T-shirt and brown pants? Yes, she's wearing sunglasses. I can't see her face, but judging by her skin, she seems quite young.

Su Shi: Your statement is too general. Do you have any photos or anything?

Yuu Mikami: I didn’t have time to take a picture.

Su Shi:……

Because there was no charger, Mikami Yu did not turn on the computer immediately, but started chatting with Su Shi. It is said that time flies when chatting. After about twenty minutes, there was a sound coming from the Toyokawa family next door.

"Sorry, Xiangzi, I was thinking it would be better if I wasn't around." It was the voice of Xiangzi's father.

"What are you talking about! How can this be allowed!" Xiangzi's voice was full of resistance.

Then Xiangzi used his shoulders to support his father who could fall down at any time.

Shoko Toyokawa is only 1.55 meters tall, but her father is 1.72 meters tall. However, the person who can really support it now is the 1.55-meter man.

This shows how decadent this father is.

but.

What he just said, "I wonder if it would be better if I wasn't around," is also quite scary.

Because what does it mean to be better not being there? This not being there may not mean leaving this city and going somewhere, but preparing to be a sunny doll.

No wonder Xiangzi’s tone and attitude were so resolute.

Then about another ten minutes passed.

Someone rang the doorbell of Mikami's house.

When Yu Mikami opened the door, he saw Shoko Toyokawa standing at the door.

Xiangzi also had an IOU and some money in his hand.

That is to say, although Yu Mikami gave her 10 yen in cash, the bail was 5 yen, and her father was in very bad condition and couldn't even walk to the station, so he took a taxi back and spent another 1.2 yen, so there was still 3.8 yen left.

So she brought over the remaining money and the IOU.

The amount on the IOU is also 10.

In other words, Xiangzi is willing to owe a debt of 10 yuan, and the remaining amount after spending it today will be regarded as interest.

"That's not necessary," said Mikami Yu. "But if you want to pay me back, there might be other options."

"So what do you mean?"

Maybe it's because he owes money and is reluctant to talk, Xiangzi's attitude now seems to be even softer than when he saw him yesterday morning.
