Chapter 65: The Friendship Between the Citizens

Takumi and Shiori chatted and laughed in the shop. Wu Hao and the others were secretly watching them, and they were vomiting blood in their hearts.

'Why was Shiori laughing so happily? Did you agree? Was the boy's confession successful?'

This time was like a year for them, but it went by very quickly for Takumi and Shiori. Half an hour later, Takumi's phone rang.

"I'm here, where are you?"

Alice said into the microphone.

"Walk out the school gate on the right, there's a milk tea shop not far away." Takumi said the address, hung up the phone, and smiled: "It seems that I have to go back, the person who picked me up is here."

"That foreign girl?"

"Yes, but she is not a foreigner."

Takumi smiled bitterly. 'Anyone who saw Alice would think she was a foreigner.'

"Then I'm leaving first."

Shiori stood up. 'For some reason, I didn't want to see that woman.' Takumi returned the bag of discs to Shiori and followed her out of the milk tea shop.

The few people hiding in the bathroom ran out immediately.

"Great, they finally left!"

"Hurry up and follow them."

Wu Hao took the lead and rushed towards the door of the shop, hiding behind and looking outside.

Takumi and the other person walked for a short distance, and suddenly a red Porsche pulled up in front of them.

"Takumi".

Alice, dressed in a formal suit, got out of the car, and her bright blonde hair attracted the attention of everyone around her.

"Fuck! Why is there another woman here?"

"Is this a second-generation rich man?"

Wu Hao and the others were envious and jealous. This time, there was no comparison. That guy was talented and his family was rich. 'Who would dare to compete with him?'

Shiori couldn't leave, Alice had already figured her out.

"Who is it?"

It was the first time Alice had seen Takumi with another girl.

"It's Shiori, from my own village." Takumi introduced himself and then turned to look at Shiori. Hesitantly, Alice offered her hand: "My name is Alice, I am a half-breed of Japanese and Western, a distant cousin of Takumi."

"Cousin?"

Shiori followed them with her gaze. As good as they looked, they didn't look like blood relatives, but it wasn't strange that distant relatives didn't look alike.

Seeing that this Porsche came from a wealthy family, Shiori learned from her Qingcheng friends that Takumi was a single-parent family, which was a bit unexpected. But this also explained Takumi's generosity. Maybe I wasn't working too hard.

"Hello."

Believe it or not, Shiori shook Alice's hand.

Alice looked at her enviously. 'This girl was really beautiful. It looked like that at such a young age.'

Without a doubt it would be dazzling when he grows up. He couldn't help but have an idea in his head: 'Takumi had a good base. In a few years, these two could be a talented man and a beautiful woman. He just didn't know what Shiori was like in other ways. It remained to be seen whether he hoped to move Takumi.'

After saying goodbye to Shiori, Alice took him home and, on the way, asked about him.

Takumi said it without thinking too much. Upon learning that Shiori had been the first in the Saitama Prefectural High School Entrance Examination, Alice was very surprised. 'The two children were so destined.'

But she was also a little disappointed. Takumi's tone clearly referred to mutual friends.

Shiori looked exceptional, but she was so good at studying, and her future shouldn't be bad. It was really strange that Takumi, who was a teenager, wouldn't be touched by such a perfect companion.

"Do you like anyone else?"

his heart sank.

Back at the building, Takumi opened the car door and as he got out, he suggested, "Alice, you can also come to my house for dinner. Anyway, you have to cook when you come back."

Alice thought about it and smiled slightly: "Okay."

He parked the car and followed Takumi home. Aika was very happy to see her. The two women chatted and cooked in the kitchen. Takumi walked into the studio and started thinking about what song to write.

He was in trouble. There are many classic songs in Detective Conan, but few can be accompanied by piano. Songs like "Mystery" and "Spinning the Wheel of Fortune" would have been fine, but when he thought about piano accompaniment, he had to give up.

After a long time of selection, Takumi discovered that "Solo Tengo Un Deseo", "Porque Estás Aquí" and "Una Vez Después del Tiempo" were more suitable for piano and singing. He didn't know how many songs he would perform, so he wrote them down.

Since there were no other instruments to collaborate with, the effect of the live performance would definitely not be as good as the original version, but it didn't matter. It was just a performance. In the future, there would be a professional music team to participate in the animation production.

Tsukimoto Genji had agreed to use royalties from The Legend of Wukong to buy stock. It was almost certain that an animation production department would be established in half a year. Takumi decided not to give his sleeves to others to make animations.

After writing all three songs, Takumi left the studio satisfied; Dinner was ready.

"I heard from Alice that there was a girl from Saitama studying at Osaka No. 1 High School."

During dinner, Aika brought up the matter with a somewhat sulky expression: "Kid, why didn't you tell me something so important?"

"Is it important?"

Takumi didn't think much of it at all.

"Of course it's important! It's so hard for a girl to go to school!" urged Aika: "When you are away from home, you should take care of the people in your village. Call the girl and let her come to our house for dinner during the holidays."

"..."

Takumi was silent. He didn't think about it. He hesitated for a moment: "But Mom, if she comes, won't she know what kind of job I have?"

Aika frowned immediately.

"Yes, this is a problem!"

I didn't know what kind of girl she was or if she had a good character. If a talkative or bad-tempered girl were to divulge Takumi's story, it would be bad.

Aika thought in her heart: 'her son was so amazing, that making money would be even more troublesome if someone tangled him up.'

During that time, Aika often watched romantic series. She found that girls nowadays were greedier for money than others, and Alice said that the girl was very beautiful. I couldn't bring home such a dangerous person.

'The world is immense, and your child is the most important thing. You should not be fascinated by the goblin.'

"I'll look for an opportunity to go see her." Aika decided: "Take some things for them to see, so they don't laugh at her when she comes home."

He loved friendship between neighbors. A child was alone outside, so I had to take care of him anyway.

"Okay."

Takumi did not object. He would take Aika to see Shiori if he had the chance.

"Just be obedient." Aika smiled, took the plates and put them in Takumi's bowl: "Alice, eat too, don't stand there."

"Okay, Sister Aika."

Alice nodded. I was very happy and felt that even though there were only two people in this family, there was a very warm atmosphere.

'It would be a great blessing for any woman to enter the life of this family.'
