At 2 o'clock in the afternoon when everything came to an end, Naoki Nagayama dragged Wonta Nakai, who was about to rest, to the apartment near Waseda.
About 20 minutes after walking out of Waseda Station, you can see this 6-story apartment building. It is not far from the famous Waseda University, and it can be regarded as a school district apartment in the Showa era...
A trendy Japanese-style Western-style apartment with an elevator.
After Nakai Wonta entered the door, he said: "It's not bad, this house." In Naoki Nagayama's view, the old house from the Showa era still lacked a lot of things, including air conditioning, water heaters, and washing machines...
....
However, the space is still very large, with two bedrooms and one living room, integrated dining and kitchen, and a small balcony. It is definitely enough for a single person to live alone, and it can barely accommodate a family if they are crowded.
The previous owner only left some larger cabinets, and the rest were emptied, which is good for cleaning.
"Stop looking around, come and help clean~" he called out to Wonta Nakai, who was spinning around like a husky.
"How big is this house and how much does it cost?" Nakai came over and asked.
"20 square meters, about 14 million."
"ε=(′ο｀*))) Oh? Don’t you only have a budget of 10 million? How can you afford it?"
"Ah, didn't I tell you? I was very busy more than half a month ago. At that time, I made a lot of money by shooting an advertisement." Not all good friends know the financial situation. Yes, the labor fee has been paid.
, I originally planned to borrow some from the bank if I couldn’t raise enough for the time being.
"Shen Suo, you are really good at making money. Do you think I am from Hitotsubashi University or you are from Hitotsubashi University?"
"Yuan Taisang, do you know there is an old saying?"
"Nani?"
"If you are handsome, life will be easy!" Naoki Nagayama looked like he was in need of a beating.
"How can you be so loud? You are a naked duck..."
They were bickering and cleaning at the same time. After an hour of cleaning, Hoshino Suzumi also came over.
The two boys' definition of cleaning is that if the floors are mopped and the windows, closets, kitchen, and toilets are wiped, everything will be fine.
Still taunting: "Suzumi-chan, we have already finished cleaning, and you just came~"
After Hoshino Suzumi came over, she felt contempt for him, and then turned around the two of them.
Only then did Nagayama Naoki discover that there was so much garbage under the sink, in the corners of the kitchen, in the blind corners of the cupboards, in the sewers... It turned out that a seemingly clean room could still clean up so much garbage...
After it finally comes to an end, even if the room is completely cleaned, you still need to buy some daily necessities and stuff, but this will have to wait until the end of the year.
Next, I have to treat you two to dinner~
.......
This is already the city center. There are as many restaurants as stars on the street. The three of them walked around and came to an izakaya.
The three of us had been busy all afternoon and were tired and hungry, so we ordered the fastest ramen.
After a hearty meal, we didn’t even think about wandering around any more, so we went back to Makino’s house together.
Huh? Why is Suzumi-san also here? Children shouldn’t know too much!
"Welcome back!" Mrs. Makino greeted them with a smile when she saw them coming in. She looked at the two Nakai people who came up first, and then said to Naoki Nagayama behind her, "Naoki-san, I'll call you in the evening.
, it seems to be your mother calling."
Nagayama Naoki's mind went blank for a moment: "Mother?"
Then he immediately reacted and said: "Hi, Makino-san, please, I'll freshen up and go back."
"Hi, it's okay"
I went upstairs in a panic. In the past three months since the Showa era, although I occasionally think of my hometown, it is just a label, a picture in my memory. Even if I talk about going back to my hometown for the holidays, it is just an idea, not at all.
Real feeling.
The call from his mother in his hometown suddenly broke through the alienation barrier and caught him off guard.
Nagayama Naoki took a quick shower, cleaned up and recalled his original family situation.
Her mother, Nanako Nagayama, is a traditional Japanese woman. After marrying into the Nagayama family at the age of 20, she became a housewife wholeheartedly. She took care of all the affairs of the family and was good to her children. However, Naoki Nagayama was not the eldest son, and there were
I have a younger sister who is 3 years younger, so I don’t have much time to pamper her.
Father Nagayama Ken42 is also the second son of his grandfather. When he was born, his grandfather’s thoughts were all on the expansion of the Yamaguchi-gumi. In addition, his grandmother died when he was relatively young, so he developed a timid and stubborn temperament, which is natural.
Not favored by the gangsters, they have been separated for more than 20 years since they were adults, at most one phone call a year.
The eldest brother, Nagayama Aoki, is 21 years old. He has not grown up to be refined and elegant. He is actually as tall and thick as his grandfather. He is a bit impatient and naive, and has the style of a Showa man. His current plan is to inherit the izakaya in Shizuoka, and he has not yet married.
The younger sister is Nagayama Tsuruko, 15 years old, a junior high school student, and a top academic. Her goal is to get into a top university in Tokyo and become a social elite.
Generally speaking, apart from the unexpected gangster background on my grandfather's side, they are still a pretty normal small county family. Naoki Nagayama came to Tokyo to make a living, on the one hand to get closer to Yamaguchi Momoe, and on the other hand
The izakaya family property is too small, and adding one more person would be superfluous.
By the way, Nagayama Naoki usually contacted his family once every month or two before. His predecessor was introverted, so he was less introverted. This time, he hasn’t contacted his family for nearly 3 months, which is a little long. However, people have changed their cores, so they can instinctively avoid contact.
Let's contact an acquaintance. Naoki Nagayama was a little hesitant at this time...but he still had to call back no matter what...
After changing clothes, Nagayama Naoki came downstairs and dialed back from the phone in the living room.
After a few beeps, "Moses, Moses, this is Yongshan's house!" A young girl was on the other end of the phone.
"Tsuruko?" Naoki Nagayama couldn't help but ask.
"Onii-chan?!" Nagayama Tsuruko must have called to the other side of the phone immediately after hearing this, "Ogasan~Onii-chan's phone number~"
This call immediately brought the images in my memory into my mind. Brothers, sisters, parents...everything on the road of growth were all integrated into Naoki Nagayama's soul.
"Why didn't you call me back for so long, Ouni-chan? Ogasan is so worried~" Nagayama Tsuruko arrogantly expressed his longing for his brother.
"Hey~~ Aren't you worried Tsuruko-chan?" Naoki Nagayama teased a little.
Nagayama Tsuruko seemed to be choked: "No Way Sai! Who said I'm not worried? I am worried about my New Year's gift~"
"Yeah, I completely forgot about gifts." Naoki Nagayama was shocked. "Fortunately, I have time to make up for it~"
"A New Year's gift? Of course I've prepared it a long time ago~ I'm just waiting to give it to you when I get back." I was not ashamed to say it.
"You'd better not forget, or you'll be dead when you come back!" Yongshan Tsuruko threatened, and then heard his mother's scolding voice coming from the phone, "Tsuruko, what are you talking about?" "Hey, I'll call you~
"
"Naoki? Did you hear that?"
"Hi, Ogasang, I'm here."
"Are you very busy recently? Are you coming back for the New Year?"
"There are indeed a lot of things to do at the end of the year, but I can still come back to celebrate the New Year~"
"That's great..." After that, the mother talked about some things about her father, her elder brother, Tsuruko, and the izakaya... Naoki Nagayama responded on the phone from time to time.
This mother-son relationship has always been like this, a nagging mother and a dull son.
Nagayama Naoki, who had never experienced family affection in his previous life, silently felt the warmth flowing slowly in his heart.
