Tokyo Soft Rice King

"Mom, don't you understand? It's me who wants to talk to him. You can't come in."

Mirai Kotori wants to create a confidential environment because what she is going to say next must not be heard by her mother.

"Ah... okay then... shall I go make you some tea?"

"No need, Mom, please go to the second floor and don't eavesdrop on our conversation."

"Mom knows..."

Aunt Qiuzi, who was exposed on the spot, lowered her head in grievance.

You've been eavesdropping in the future...

As the saying goes, like daughter, like mother. Aunt Akiko originally wanted to lie down at the door and eavesdrop, but she was exposed on the spot by Mirai Kotori, who knows a mother better than her daughter.

If he insisted on eavesdropping later, he would definitely be furious, and then all of Kuroba-kun's efforts would be in vain... Thinking of this, Takanashi Akiko decided not to take the risk.

It took a lot of effort to get Future to walk out of the room and even be willing to listen to people. But I can't let my curiosity ruin all my efforts.

So, after giving Kuroba Akira a look that said 'I'll leave my future to you', Takanashi Akiko turned around and went upstairs to her workshop to wait for the results.

This was the second time that Kuroba Akira entered the room of a girl of the same age.

From asking Mirai Kotori to walk out of her room to walking into her room himself.

Hei Yuming has also entered the second stage of the strategy.

Chapter 207: The Future is Ziyin's Little Fangirl

After entering Takanashi Mirai's room, Kuroba Akira let out a silent sigh.

Like Shiori Shirai's room which only has books, Mirai Takanashi's room is also very recognizable. It is the kind of super personalized room that you can tell at a glance what the owner of the room is interested in.

So, are all JK rooms so extreme now?

The first thing you see is the kind of desktop that often appears in desktop transformation videos, with a homey feel and a bit of punk flavor.

The extra-long table and the pegboards on the wall must have been specially customized.

The far right side of the desktop is the computer host area, with three display screens, one large and one small, two horizontal screens placed one above the other, a vertical screen placed next to it, a speaker that looks very expensive, and a cool host case covered with RGB lights.

There was an empty space in the middle, with only a relatively large display screen and a game console. However, unlike the collection cabinet in the living room that was comparable to the history of the development of game consoles, this place only had the most popular consoles, as well as charging handheld game consoles and controllers, and uncleaned food residues. It seemed that she always ate here in the room.

On the left is a work desk mat. The assembled models should be made here. There is clay and spray paint on the table, so I guess she can make things by herself.

The most exaggerated thing is that there are seven or eight headphones that look very expensive hanging on the perforated board. It seems that Birdie will still be a headphone enthusiast in the future.

This reminded Kuroba Akira of the same headphones the heroine wore in the anime she watched before. When she checked the prices, they were all super expensive headphones costing thousands of yuan. Although it was probably just a soft advertisement, it made people want to complain, saying that they were from a poor family and they must be rich or noble! They were not headphones that a working girl could afford!

Then there is an electronic keyboard near the window, and a guitar and a music stand next to it. It seems like someone is playing music.

As Aunt Qiuzi mentioned before, all the models she assembled herself are placed on the model cabinet next to the bed, and the bed is also covered with cute plush dolls... This does look a bit like a JK's room.

She can have such a room at this age, and Aunt Qiuzi buys her whatever she wants. She really dotes on her daughter.

Then Hei Yuming could fully understand that she didn't want to leave the room. After all, this was the dream room of a hikikomori.

Even Hei Yuming felt that if he lived in a room like this, he would definitely choose to be a shut-in.

However, the reality is that Kuroba Akira has nothing in his room at the Kobayashi family... Now he has a bunk bed that has become a decoration and a beautiful woman to sleep with him, so he actually likes to stay in bed.

But before, Hei Yuming would rather go to the school library to read than stay in an empty room.

However, her room was probably not decorated like this from the beginning. It should have been gradually decorated like this as she grew up. Since she could go to school normally before, her room was definitely not the reason why she chose to be a shut-in.

Noticing that Kuroba Akira was observing her room, Takanashi Mirai scratched her cheek and said a little embarrassedly.

"I know this room is a bit exaggerated... but Mom designed and decorated it herself, so it's really convenient to use..."

"I see, it's Aunt Qiuzi's work."

After hearing her say this, Hei Yuming could understand. After all, she was still just a student and did not have enough funds, so she would never think of renovating the room.

Only an adult would have the financial resources to transform a room into this. In fact, from the layout of the living room, it can be seen that Akiko Takanashi is actually the "real super homegirl".

It seems that Mirai Kotori is not the kind of willful rich girl, but more like a mama's girl.

"Those headphones were also birthday gifts my mom bought me. She started when I asked for headphones in first grade, and every year since then she's bought me the latest ones... I checked the prices, and they seem pretty expensive."

Takanashi Mirai scratched her head and started complaining.

"Really? We only have two ears, why do we need so many headphones? It's like I'm a headphone enthusiast... Isn't this just a waste of money..."

Although she looked like she was complaining, Hei Yuming could still tell that her mother gave her gifts every year and she was still very happy.

In fact, many times adults use money and material things to meet their children's material needs because they don't know how to express their love for their children.

Especially those parents who have been separated from their children for a long time and have not been able to accompany their children when they grow up, so when they meet again, there is an invisible barrier between parents and children, and they become as unfamiliar as strangers... At this time, the only thing they can think of is "paying money".

However, as they have grown up, they have forgotten how they felt as children. For children whose values ​​have not yet been formed, money is not the most important thing and it cannot buy a child's affection.

What makes Kotori happy in the future is not how good or expensive the headphones she got are, but the fact that her mother remembered her birthday, which made her feel loved.

Many parents don’t know how to get along with their children, which is the source of many family tragedies.

The first people that came to Hei Yuming's mind were Ziyin and the class monitor. The relationship between these two people and his mother was very stiff, even hostile.

In fact, the same is true for Hei Yuming himself. Although the conflicts in his family had been completely resolved before he traveled through time, there were still many troubles in his family that made him mentally exhausted in the first thirty years of his life.

However, the main conflicts in his family all came from his moody father... Hei Yuming did not see him when he was full of vigor and vitality, because he was still young at that time. After he regained consciousness, he encountered his down-and-out and failed father's violence against his family.

In fact, it would be fine if he just got beaten, but he really couldn't stand his bastard father hitting his mother, so it often turned into a fight between a loving father and a filial son... After all, hitting a woman is really a cowardly act.

Compared with these negative examples, the mother and daughter of the Kotori family only had some temporary conflicts, but they could still sit together to play games, eat together, build models together, and discuss animations together. They were so harmonious.

"Sorry, there are no other chairs in the room. Please sit on my bed."

Kotori Mirai sat on the gaming chair and crossed her legs, and Kuroba Ming sat on her bed without any hesitation.

"By the way, where's Hitomi?"

"The squad leader had something to do at home today, so he didn't come with me."

Hearing that it was about Asato Hitomi's family, Takanashi Mirai frowned and said.

"Things about Tong's family...isn't it her mother's order again?"

"Huh? So you know why the monitor left you?"

Hei Yuming remembered that the class monitor had said that she had not explained it to her childhood playmates.

In fact, she really didn't know. After hearing what Hei Yuming said, she asked back in dumbfounded.

"Hey? Does the reason why Tong left us have anything to do with her mother?"

"Uh, you don't know?"

"Tong never explained it to us, how would I know?"

"Then why do you know it was her mother's order?"

"I'm just guessing. Tong's mother has always had a strong desire to control Tong. When Tong was little, she made her do some bride training. My mother even pointed at her mother's nose and scolded her at a housewives party because of this..."

"My goodness, Aunt Qiuzi is so fierce..."

I can’t imagine how Aunt Qiuzi, who always squints her eyes and looks soft, would look angry.

"But I heard from my mother that they have reconciled now and have become good friends."

"Wow, have the mothers mended their relationship first? Then, Kotori-san, aren't you going to make peace with the class monitor?"

Then she hugged her knees and spoke with a pout.

"It's not that I don't want to reconcile... It was Tong who chose to leave us. If she really cared about us and wanted to repair the relationship, shouldn't she be the one to come and apologize to us first?"

"Indeed, you have a point."

In this matter, the class monitor did have a problem. From the perspective of these childhood playmates, it was the class monitor who abandoned them on his own initiative, and for no reason. No one would find it unacceptable.

But the squad leader hasn't chosen to repair the relationship yet, and she must have her reasons.

Maybe once the conflict between her and her mother is resolved, she will reconcile with her childhood playmates.

"Come to think of it, my mom is also a Kotori, and you just call her Auntie Akiko, right? So you can just call me Mirai, but don't add sauce, I don't like it."

"Even the class monitor calls you Mirai-chan..."

"As for Tong, you can call me that. After all, she always called me that when she was a child."

"So, your relationship with me isn't there yet?"

"That's the opposite. Now I prefer my friends to just call me by my name..."

Saying the word "friend" herself still made the shy Mirai Kotori feel a little embarrassed.

But she has indeed recognized Hei Yuming. Being able to play games together and have fun is already considered good friends. Now she has invited him into her room, which is a treatment that only good friends can have.

"So just call me Weilai, and I'll call you Ming."

"Okay, I get it, future."

Calling someone by their name without any title is indeed rare for Japanese people who care about etiquette to the point of obsession.

It seems that Mirai Takanashi is a straightforward girl.

Then she asked about something that she had been concerned about for a long time.

"Speaking of which, Ming, you are the follower of that goddess, right?"

"Goddess?"

Hei Yuming was puzzled, not knowing who she was referring to.

"That's the super beautiful girl who had dinner with you when I first met you at the family restaurant. She was a classmate of Makoto... the goddess named Murasaki Shion!"

Wei Li looked very excited, and her face turned a little red at the end.

"oh oh……"

So they were talking about Ziyin... Looking at her like a little fangirl in the future, calling her "Goddess" so exaggeratedly, it seems that she is completely conquered by Ziyin's beauty.

As expected, Ziyin's enchanting beauty appeals to both men and women.

Then the future continued with emotion.

"I used to think Angel was the most beautiful woman in the entire entertainment industry, but I never thought there was anyone who could rival her..."

"Who is the angel?"

"Don't you even know Angel-sama? She's the hottest, youngest, most talented actress right now, Tsukimi Rimi Ayaka! The big screens on the pedestrian street and the trams are all filled with ads for the soda she endorses!"

"Oh! Never heard of it..."

I seem to have a little impression of it, having seen it in a TV commercial, but Kuroba Akira has never been the type to watch commercials seriously, so I didn't pay much attention to it.

The future had a look of astonishment on its face, and its open mouth was big enough to fit an egg.

"Is this true...are you from outer space?"

It comes from another world.

"Is it really as exaggerated as you say?"

"I'll find you that much-hyped promotional image for the Godly movie. Take a look for yourself!"

Mirai Takanashi went to her desktop, turned on the computer which was in standby mode, and searched for the movie poster of Tsukimi Aoi.

"oh oh……!"

After seeing it, Hei Yuming was really amazed.

The pure white girl floated in mid-air, her toes touching the water, like a flower bud about to bloom, or an angel descending to earth...

If this picture had not been photoshopped, Tsukiri Ayane would indeed be a peerless beauty comparable to Murasakimiya Shion, a woman of stunning beauty.

It was mentioned before that if Ziyin's appearance is rated at 120 points, then Yuejianli Ai's would probably be 115 points.

The five-point difference is not due to appearance, but to hairstyle. Yuejianli Ai is a girl with short hair, but Hei Yuming is not a fan of short hair.

But her hair color is a very eye-catching silver-white, which is another kind of stunningness compared to Ziyin's black and shiny hair.

No wonder it is called "Angel", this "pure white and clean" feeling really makes people think of a pure angel.

Even if you just look at her face, this Yuejian Lilani might be even prettier...mainly, her expression is more charming.

Unlike Ziyin who is as cold as ice when she doesn't smile, her smile in the poster gives people a feeling as warm as sunshine.
