Chapter 18 chapter 2

It took about five months for Takasaki Noriyuki to return to his home in the Koto region. It was the first time he had returned since his mother's death.Even when he was doing something for his mother to get him back, he excused himself by saying that he was too busy studying in college and was perfunctory.My father, who just graduated from high school, didn't complain at all. Ji Zhi hated his father, Kuno, because as long as his wife and children spent a penny on him, he would chatter endlessly, but he never felt sorry for spending money outside. Whenever his wife scolds him, he will definitely say: "It's so annoying, who do you think made the money!"

Kunio's greatest pride in his life is that he independently ran a supermarket when he was very young. Ji Zhi felt that the reason why his mother died so early was because he married such a smelly man!Even this time to bury his wife, Kunio spent as little money as possible. Ji Zhi now has his household registration in a university in Kichijoji. Although it is very close to his home and it is difficult to go back, he still lives alone in the student apartment because he feels that.It is very painful to see my father every day. Kunio gave him monthly living expenses, and after paying the rent, there is not much left. Fortunately, he has been working part-time for more than two years.

Since there is such a stingy father, of course he didn't come home this time to ask for money.He came back just to pick up a few CDs. As he slipped through the gate, he checked his watch. It was just after two o'clock in the afternoon.Usually at this time, father should not be at home. When he took the key to open the main door, the key wouldn't turn. He tried to turn the doorknob, and the door opened smoothly.He clicked his tongue and thought to himself: What's going on?Is dad back? It would be too troublesome to come back next time, so he stepped in anyway.He listened carefully to the movement around him, trying to figure out which room his father was in at this time, but he heard nothing.

After going up the stairs to his room on the second floor, he put all the things he needed into the paper bag at hand.He thought that if he was lucky, he would be able to take the things without having to meet his father. He stuffed his stuff and went downstairs quietly.It didn't look like anyone was in the house at the moment. As he passed the corridor, he inadvertently glanced into the half-open bathroom door.This is the dressing room of the bathroom, and there are some clothes in the basket above the washing machine, which seem to belong to Kunio. Ji Zhi tilted the corner of his mouth: Taking a bath during the day is really relaxing!

He didn't mean to say hello, and wanted to leave quietly like this, so he tiptoed towards the main entrance. At this moment, the phone rang, and Ji Zhi hurriedly put on his shoes. To prevent phone calls during bath time, a cordless telephone extension was installed on the bathroom wall. No one answered the phone, and the phone kept ringing. Ji Zhi looked back at the bathroom, thinking, he shouldn't be able to hear the phone ringing!That means he is neither in the bathroom nor at home. Ji Zhi took off his shoes and returned to the corridor, opened the message on the phone that no one answered, and a young man's voice came out: "I am Morimoto from 00 Real Estate, I hope you will think about what we talked about a few days ago, I'll contact you later." Then there was an electronic sound of "ding".

Ji Zhi looked into the bathroom and found that the light was still on. The clothes in the basket belonged to Kunio, yes, that tasteless pink shirt looked familiar too. He glanced under his feet and saw that a glove had fallen to the ground.It was a dirty work glove.Ji Zhicha tilted his head.He knew that his father's job had no access to mechanical oil or anything. When he opened the bathroom door, he saw that Kunio was lying in the slender tub, with his legs stretched out, his hands at his sides, his head resting on the edge of the tub, and his body bent unnaturally. Ji Zhi quickly closed the door, took off the cordless phone, and his heart beat violently, but it was not because of fear or shock.

There is only one thought that fills his mind: the good thing he dreamed of has finally appeared in reality!
